asserted mat no man appreciated fine stock

of the pupa if it cost him a fortune. They
put their precious Newfoundlands aboard of

As Good as a U. S. Government Bond.
A policy in the State Insurance Company
ot Salem, Oregon, in case of an honest lost
it at goad as a U. S. Government Bond. It
has nearly one-quarter of a million of clean,
first-class available assets, all of whith i
held in Ihit State, for the payment of losses in
Oregon and Washington Territory. It has
paid losses in nearly every locality in the
Pacifio Northwest. Its payments have been
prompt, clean and honest. It issuos the
best and most liberal policy that is to-day
issued in Oregon. This policy contains no
60 or 90 days clause, (which causes a delay
ot that time in payment of losses, or a de
duction for interest.) It is, we believe, the
only policy issued in Oregon that does not
oontain such a clause. It contains no two
thirds or three-fourths clause. It promises
tn the policy to pay the fuli leu up to the
amount insured, and in case the agreed or
appraised loss ia leu than the amount in
sured it agrees to return the unearned prem
ium upon the exoeis. It is th only oom
pany doing business in Oregon, we believe,
tKal to aqrtta in its policy.
Its officers and managers are from among
the ablest, most successful and honorable
business men in thit State, and are well
known to our people as such. It does not
attempt to build itself up by decrying iU
rivals, but quietly attends to its own busi
nesswhich takes all of its time prefering
to loave mtth ntrthodt to the irrwnoniioe and
jmUoum representatives of certain rivals, sim
ply saying that there is not an honorable,
Bonest and responsible man or newspaper in
Oregon, (which knows anything of its finan
cial condition) that will, or ever haa said,
but that the State Insurance Company pos
sesses all that it claims to possess and is a
perfectly responsible, trustworthy and
prompt paying institution.
All of its policies provide that in case
there ia any difference of opinion as to the
amount of any loss the matter may be left to
disinterested and competent arbitrators.
The State Insurance Co. pays this year
between one and two thousand dollars taxes
in Oregon, and ti is th only Firs Inturonc
Cemnany doing Inaineng in thit State that pay t
a doUar taut in Oregon, with the exception
only of two other local companies.
These are facte that are indisputable, and
should convince every intelligent and reason
able man who is at all interested in the
growth and development of Oregon and re
liable Oregon institutions, that it is to his
interest to patronize the State Insurance Co.
in preference to any and all others. ml4-6w

THE CLAIM OF THE PROPRIETORS
FULLY ENDORSED.
Rul the following Opinion tYoro
th landing oiity ludt of Port
land, Bun Krunoiaoe and Chloago:
"I have been prejudiced aealnitall cos
metic in liquid form, bellevinif, like many
others, that they always contained eome
harmful ingredients, but at the urgent solici
tation ot a friend who was using your Bob
ertine, I tried it, and to my surprise and sat
isfaction it produced the most charming
fleet of anything I had ever used, leaving
the skin soft and smooth. Bobortine will
slways form tn Important part ot my toilet.
Knowing it, I consider it an important ac
cessory. "I have used nearly every preparation for
improving the complexion to tie had, and I
can say fraukly liobertiue suits me better
than anything l have ever tried.
"Having used your Bobertine, and liking
It so woll, I have introduced It to my friends,
All pronounce it perfect."
"I have bid farewell to powders since
using Kobcrtine. Its power! are wonder
ful.'7 A lady In Ban Francisco writes! "Please
send me one doxon llobertine, but don't
Imafflue it is all for myself, but for friends
who have dubbed together. All havs sam
pled miuo, and say it is just lovely,"
"Unlike anything I have ever used, it
gives the complexion such a delicate tint,
and does not leave the skin dry and rough."
"It does all you claim for It. Its virtues
will advertise it wherever known." -
"In oommending your excellent Bobertine
I cannot refrain from mentioning the artistio
and suggestive design of the laltel, portray
ing innoceuoe, purity and art, all ol which it
givos me pleasure to say it justly merit."
An operatic star known so well to Fort
land has spokon so highly of it that it is but
proper to quote the lady's testimony smong
others: "It is the finest preparation I have
ever med, and is a decided acquisition to a
lady's toilet."
