THE SUNDAY OREGONTAX, PORTLAND, JULY 1, 1906. ALL P0I1 CHARITY Do You Use Fancy Butter? If So, Ask for How Catholic Societies Will Celebrate. MAMMOTH PICNIC PLANNED Orphanages of Oregon Will Benefit From th Proceeds of the En tertainment to Be Given on Exposition Grounds. Independence day will witness many patriolic celebrations and good times, but the mammoth picnic which has been ar ranged for the benefit of the Catholic or phanages of Oregon promises to eclipse any other both in size and Interest. Through the courtesy of Lafe Pence, the Government building at the Exposition grounds and the attractive Island on which it stands have been put at the dis posal of the Catholic clergy and the sis terhoods which have the orphans in charge. These ample grounds are con sidered the most sightly and desirable pic nic site around Portland, and hundreds of boys and girls and many times that number of elders are anticipating the happiest day of the Summer next Wed nesday. The" throng which will begin wending its way toward the Exposition grounds early Wednesday morning will re mind Portlanders of Fair days, and the good times which will be enjoyed will quite equal those of 1905. In Behalf of Charities. A pleasant feature of a picnic of this kind is the knowledge that every nickel spent for enjoyment during the day will devoted to a moat worthy purpose. The Catholic Diocese of Oregon has be come justly famous for Its philanthropic Institutions and in caring for the home less and orphaned children of Its faith it is especially active. The St. Agnes' Baby Home, at Parkplace, conducted by the Sisters of Mercy; the St. Mary's Home for Girls, at St. Paul, conducted by the Sisters of the Holy Name, and the St. Mary's Home for Boys, near Beaverton, i-nder charge of Rev. J. D. Murphy, are the institutions which will be benefited by the proceeds of this picnic, and this alone, aside from the many attractions offered for enjoyment, will doubtless at tract a large crowd. Various committees In charge of the big Forrth of July celebration have been working for two months In arranging a programme, and It is announced that there will be such a variety of entertain ment that every one can be suited. A lively tloket-stelllng contest has been going on among young ladles from various parishes, the winner to be awarded a fine piano by Whale Piano Company. At the grounds there will 'be shooting galleries, niggpr babies, pounding bags. Japanese bowling boards and many other features. Fine Programme Promised. i There will be plenty of good things to eat and drink on sale by the ladies of the parish and sufficient benches will be pro vided for the weary. There will be fine music all day by a popular band, and nothing will be missing to make this the biggest event of the day, both from a patriotic and charitable standpoint. The lirogramme, which begins at 11 A. M. sharp, is sufficient guarantee of the suc cess of the day. and will be given rain or shine, as the big Government building Is as commodious as a picnic ground itself. Officers of the Day.

The Oaks Is now one of the most stupendous and costly amusement re sorts ever promoted in the country, in its plan, its scope and the magnitude of its amusements. it has been con structed at a cost of nearly $200,000. This season it can be said to fee an architectural triumph. At night it presents a scene of fairy land, all the buildings and surround ings being pure white and illuminated with over 50,000 electric lights. When Mr. Fred S. Morris planned The Oaks, that gentleman made an effort to pro vide Portland with a place of amuse ment that would appeal to all classes. There is not a step in the place, all the walks are level and wide enough to accommodate a score of people in single file. It is the one park where there is no congestion, where people can see everything, and where the moral atmosphere is perfect. The Oaks Is the one resort of its kind that pos sesses charming, natural surround- ings. and where people can get there both by rail and water. For its size, there is not another park in Amer ica with so many legitimate and at tractive features. A dull moment at The Oaks is an Impossible thing. There is so much to enjoy and interest that a whole day can be well spent, as was the case at the Lewis and Clark Fair. Over 20,000 people visited The Oaks last Sunday, and if the weather changes and brings sunshine nothing can stop this resort from doing a record-breaking busi ness. The monster skating rink has made a decided hit. Thousands crowd the place afternoon and night. The wonderful Japanese Figure Exhibit has come to stay, and the thrilling ride on the Figure Fight Roller Coast er has captured both old and young. One of the main features at The Oaks this season is the beautiful Ca rousel, an Immense raerry-go-round. This week the great "Old Mill" will be opened to the public for the first time west of New York. It is predicted that this device will do a large business. It is one of the most entrancing of all the amusement novelties seen at parks. Hale's Tour Cars are attracting much attention, as is also the dancing pavilion. Then there is- the Maze, Chutes, Bumps, Temple of Mirth, great Giant Whirl Flying Machine, and enough other attractive novelties to fill another park. Of course there is everything to satisfy the lovers of harmless games. There is a modern popcorn booth that turns out popcorn by machinery at an average of a thou sand packages an hour, and is as at tractive as was the incubator at the late Fair. There is a Gypsy Camp, many Japanese ball and other clever games, the Mexican glassblowers, the "Hi Ki' ball game, a large magnetic fish pond, the laying hen game, at which when you strike the hen you get a hard-boiled egg free of charge. One of the novelties is the "Zig-Zag." where you slide r0 feet, and hope to climb a golden stairs, but few succeed. Everybody in Portland is familiar with the beautiful Tavern, conducted by Leighton & Barnes, expert caterers, and the cozy Ice cream parlors, man aged by Meister & Hasenmayer, late of the Royal Bakery, both of which places are charmingly situated.

Every Monarch Range must do exactly as we promise, or you get your money back; and furthermore, we will give $30.00 in gold for any Monarch Range that has ever been sold by us. Monarchs are built entirely of malleable steel. Every joint is drawn up with rivets (not bolts), making them airtight as a boiler. Some of the many good features found in a Monarch are : The duplex trrate. that will burn either coal or wood; the duplex draft, that allows the air to enter both front and back of the firebox, causing the oven and top to heat uniformly and effecting a great saving in fuel. The patent pin front, instead of the old style water coil, is one of the most important features; it heats the water quicker and does not interfere with heat ing the oven, as it is in front of the fire, instead of back of it. Asbestos lining, warming closets above and below; sectional firebox lining and other features too numerous to mention, make the Monarch the best range on the market today. That's why we can offer $30 for any old Monarch, and then not get any. because no one could buy a new range for $30 that would etjual their old Monarch, even though they had used it for ten years. Your old stove taken at its full value in part payment on a Monarch. a Ruffled Curtains, 37c a Pair Monday we place on sale a ruffled cot tape Curtain, 2V2 yards long and 1 yard wide, with a 6-inch ruffle.

He had a couple of upper and lower teeth left and we took pleasure in demonstrating to him that by our scientific Crown and Bridge Work we could almost give him as good teeth as the originals. He is now delighted and cannot praise too highly the modern methods of the expert dentist. WARNING Don't allow incompetent dentists to extract teeth that it is possible to fill and crown. Don't allow your teeth to decay and become use less. Don't delay calling on us at once if you have any tooth troubles. DR. B. E. WRIGHT HkFs 342 WASHINGTON STREET, CORNER SEVENTH OFFICE HOURS: 8 A.M.
