The foothills and mountain slopes are
covered with a fine and extensive growth
of lir, cedar and sugar pine, a Urge por
tion of which is government land and
still subject to entry. In a few of the
SCHOOL HOUSE
more favorable places mills have been
erected and are ut work shipping their
lumber to California points.
KoFeburg is the distributing point and
center of business for Douglas County.
Besides the courthouse and county build
lugs beiug located here, there is the
United Mates Land Ollice. This land
district embraces Linn, Lane, Douglas,
Coos, Curry, Josephine and Jackson
counties, and is the most important in
Oregon. The United States signal sta
tion, the only one in (Southern Oregou,
is located here, and poets daily bulletins
of the weather reports from the various
stations over the coaat.
The Oregou Soldiers' Home, w hich is
supported both by the Slate and Federal
Government, is situated in the subuib
wtst of the Umpiiua Uvier, which io
spanned by a substantial and cotttly
bridge. It is the only State institution
iu Southern Oregon. No more conven
ient aud healthful location could have
been selected.
lioeoburg is the end of a divitdni of
the Southern 1'acitlc lUilroad, and the
terminus of the Hoseburg local, which
leaves for 1'ortlaiut every morniug and
arrives from that city every evening.
The repair shops and rouudhouse of the
company are located here. They employ
altogether about 150 meu and dishiuse
upward of f 10,000 per month.
The postoflice is a distributing otlice
for live mail routes which lend fiom tliU
place. Hoseburg lias a complete system
of sewerage, a wcll-eouipped water plant
which furuishes an abundant supply for
both private and public use aud a well
trained tire department which renders
efficient services when tho demands re
quire. Hoseburg has a large aud com
modious public school building, accom
modating some 700 pupils.
The Hoseburg Academy, which is uite
ly equipped, offers splendid inducements
for the pursuit of the higher branches of
education.
Nearly every kind of trade and piofcs
tdoo is represented here. There are a
number ol large and extensive mercan
tile firms, among whom are Caio Bros.,
who have built themselves a large brick
block on one of the most valuable cor
ners in tho city for their own uso. Tbev
have a very large trade reaching into all
the mining camps aud adjoining towns
and villages,
Mrs. .lotepliHoii, who upon the death
of her husband took porsoual control of
his exteiibivu mercantile and other bubi
uess allairs, has proved an able and
elliciuut buuiuors manager, extending
her business until she occupies two large
brick buildings ou Jackson an 1 Wash
lugtou streets, aud teaches far beyond

Willamette Valley by daytime.
HOME.
The courthouse, a fine and large build
ing, costing; many thousands of dollars,
contains all of the county offices. It is
one of the most commodious aDd conven
ient houses of justice in the State. It is
onder the cire of Judge A. F. Stearns,
a man of good business ability and excep-
- , IA
tional legal qualifications.
! The advantages offered at Hoseburg
I and vicinity to capitalists for safe divi-jdend-paying
investments are more
1 plentiful and diversified than any other
place in the Northwest. The country
here is as yet nndeveloied and all it
needs to spriug into busy, bustling activ
ity is a little more capital, which is fast
turning to this prolific field.

The sweet
ness ot tree
first embrace
with the wo
man of his choice
will always linger in
a man's itiind. It is
a pity that the sweet
memory should ever
be poisoned bv the
taint of ill-health and
consequent unhappi
ness. It is sail that
the flower of a happy
remembrance should
be obscured and kill
ed by the noxious
weeds of sickness and
sorrow. Too fre
quently this is the case. A woman can
not be a happy, helpful amiable wife who
suffers from weakness and disease at the
very mainsprings of her nature. Pity
may grow up to take its place, but love
itself seldom survives where this is the
case. If a woman will, she may always
hold her place in a man's mind and
heart. If she will take the right care of
herself in a womanly way she will never
lose her rightful inheritance, a hus
band'a love.
The best of all know n medicines for wo
men is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
It acts directly on the important and deli
cate organs that make wifehood and
motherhood possible and makes them
strong and well. It allays in (lamination,
heals ulceration, soothes pain and tones
up and builds up tired nerves. It pre
pares for almost pangless motherhood and
insures healthy children. Thousands of
women who were sickly, nervous, fretful
invalids are now happy, cheerful and
helpful wives as a result of its use. All
good medicine dealers keep it and there
Is nothing "just as good." Any dealer
who tries to persuade you that there is,
Is thinking more of his profit than of
your welfare aud health.
