THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 21, 1906. ii POPULAR The "craftsman" or "quaint" designs in furniture are ,the result of an endeavor to make furniture, which should be at the same time simple, structural and practical, to meet all requirements as regards comfort, ap pearance and durability. The designs of today are reproductions of the original old handicrafts devoid of all ornamentation a natural outgrowth of the needs of the people. The most characteristic feature of the craftsman furniture is the finish, of which many have, at different times, been applied to complete its sim plicity, the most popular of which have been the "fumed" and the "weathered," the former especially so. This beautiful finish, like its name, is of a soft and pleasing tone of brown, which adds to the oak a homelike attractiveness that cannot be impaired by wear. The "quaint designs" are well adapted to those rooms in the home that demand furniture that is durable and practical. Our showing of "quaint furniture" in the fumed oak includes the most characteristic and the truest repro ductions of the foremost designers and builders of "craftsman furniture" and includes pieces for the library, the living-room, the dining-room, the hall and the den. ; We are exclusive Portland agents for the Stickley Bros.' productions of "quaint furniture"-in the fumed oak. j ill! !

Mr. Kleemann recently received from "Alaska a valuable fur rue:, that had been perfumed with seven kinds of fish oil, to make it acceptable to the nos trils of the savage maiden who was the Hist owner. The combined flavors were unpleasant to the civilized nose, jto Kleemann and Iove conspired to gether to produce a ' perfume that would outdistance the fish oil, and they succeeded beyond their expectations. Itoth being: expert chemists, they con cluded that the fish oil could not stand n combination of carbolic acid and chloride, of lime. The result was unexpected. A fear ful fras was generated that filled the Hurkhard building: and permeated the entire neighborhood. It was too vig orous for use on the rug. and the lat ter still smells as it did of yore.
