"It seems only a, Bhort and pleasant ride on this line from Salem, where we live," Bald Alary, after she had scolded The Jour nal artist for what she termed undue freshness with a picture taking ma chine. "Wa come In on the electric line from Salem because there tfl no dust, .the coaches are new and the roadbed Is smooth. Isn't that so, Mary 7" Bald Mr. 'Potts. "Tea, that's so. and the scenery is batter on the electric line, much bet ter," replied Mary. "Yea, and another thing about It- Is one can come and fro a he pleases," continued Mr. Potts, "for the electric trains are running- all the time and the conductors are extremely acoomtnodating to passengers." to have the Bulck. She said it was just the sized car she wanted. The modern features of the fine new garage of the Keats Auto Co.. Its completeness, were very Interesting to the Ralem couple, especially the compressed air system throughout the salesrooms and shops, the vulcanizing plant and the big ele vator for lifting automobiles to the second floor. They were surprised when told that the Keats Auto Co. Is open night and day the year round. Having Been tome equipment for the car at Hallou & Wright's that pleasod them, Mr. and Mrs. Potts visited their salesrooms, at 86 filxth street, and se lected lamps and other trappings with which this old establishment Is so woll saw- - ' 5 I C" 1 --fW(-v.

"Tou can afford to wait a day or so and have one made by a tailor. if there's anything I hate It Is a hand-me- down suit," was the reply of his better half. "Well, Mary, let's go over to the Columbia Woolen Mills. That's where I had mv wedding suit made, and you know every one of our relatives thought It was simply grand. Iet me think. Oh, yes, the Columbia Woolen Mills Is on the corner of Stark and Seventh streets, under the Elks' temple. Mary, I remember they told me when 1 was there before that they would turn a suit out In a day, lrWf' were a rush order. Tou know they have a big force of outters and a splendid manufactur ing department adjoining the main of- ing. Tou must have some specs. I have read theadvertlseraents of J. Dr Duback In Tire Journal and I have known people Who have been to him. He's around under the T. M. C. A. build ing, at Fourth and YamhlU streets. You know J. D. Duback Is the successor to the Oregon Optical Parlors, and he IS a most responsible and capable man. He's away up In his profession." "Well, Mary, I want a pair of glasses with the Kaydee mounting and the 'Crystel Ray Torlc Lenses.' " "Well, that's all right, Tom, Mr. Duback Is exclusive agent for these very glasses you speak of." "It's about noontime. Let'B go to the HaBolwood cream store, up on Wash ington, near Tenth, and get a lunch," 1 twin jnn wm- r 9 .1 ' - ' - Dr. W. A. Wise Wlts on Mr. PottB. MpMJHMI-l HI '. " V'N N Drawing Money at the Hartman & Thompflon Bank. Leaving the Oregon Electric depot, iMr. Potts and his wife went directly to (the Hartman & Thompson bank In the Chamber of Commerce building. "We titad better draw enough money to gt us an automobile and do some other .shopping," aa the suggestion of Mrs. J Potts. "Yes, Mary, and we must lot .,jthe bank make an Investment for us. iiYou know we have a neighbor In Salem jfor whom the Hartman & Thompson ibank has made a lot of money," and .'turning to The Journal man he said: i "You know I like this bank because It : is not a corporation which makes very man In the concern liable to the full 'extent of Ills fortune for the deposits. 'I don't know that the men behind it are : worth more than 260,000, hut they are 11 good, well known, substantial cltl-1 supplied. "Now, Tom," said Mrs. Potts as they were about to drive away, "we must go back and look at a bicycle, and you know we were told to look at the motor cycles at Ballou & Wright's. I must say this is the biggest house dealing In automobile supplies and bicycle and motor cycle sundries that I've seen west of New York. You know I was there last summer with mamma. Just look at the tires. Its enough to tire any one to even look at all of them. Being Measured at Columbia Woolen Mills. flfees and salesrooms, where one makes the selection of patterns." "Now we want a big lot of things, so let's go to Olds, Wortman & King's." said the madam, who up to this time had apparently had her own way. It was lpned that they were going there first to look at a set of china.

After having his measure taken for n suit, Mr. Potts felt be should complete his wardrobe, bo he suggested that they go to Buffum & Pendleton's mammoth hat department and get a Knox hat. When he and his faithful companion ar rived there the persuasive manager of the hat department sold him a ,Knox derby and then showed him a Knox silk hat, and he had no more than tried It on than he bought It. "You know," said the Salem citizen, "that I have always felt that the fact of the matter 1b, men would not buy Knox hats year after year for a life time unless there was gome reason for ! was the suggestion of Mr. Potts, and on this occasion he was gallant enough to Invite The Journal representatives, which was unaccountably refused. When they arrived Tom asked his little tootsy wootsy Mary what she'd Like to order for lunch. "Merry Widow Sundae," she replied, so quickly that It almost took his breath away. Merry Widow Sundae Is one of the specialties served In In imitable style by this wonderfully pop ular place for luncheons and after theatre parties. When through with lunch, Mrs. Potts ordered a box of fine candy at the Hazelwood candy depart ment. Ijooklng jut over the sea of ta bles, the artistic and quaint old tavern effect was favorably commented upon. When tdld that It was the most popular lunch place In Portland, the reply was: When they came down In the elevator Mr, Potts was smiling again, and ex pressed great satisfaction with . .the painless method employed. "You know," eald Mr. Potts, "he deadened that nerve; yes, killed It, but I did not know It till afterward, and with a Utile corkscrew- looklng arrangement he' pulled the nerve out. Then he treated the tooth and next time I come In he will fill it and make It as good as new. I didn't tnke any gas either, except my wife's. Oh! but she's a pretty good girl anyway." tram Turn!

He did not come to this country, like some of the rest of them, with a big sack of gold, but he built up his business by square dealing. He treated the people honestly and right. But let's see how he'll treat us," and with this Mr. and Mis. Potts left their auto and went Inside and were courteously shown through the establishment The next place Mr. and Mrs. Potts concluded to visit on their shopping expedition was Etlers Piano House, and take advantage of their club plan for securing a piano. In a Jiffy they were at the corner of Washington and Park streets, and It took them only a few minutes to arrange matters eatlafaotor- B3? 5 fx it .v.vat. jb", in i-:'2ammtsr-in wm r " " " " " "" "1 44 V pi . r X- It. - r I X , :ftS :SL I ' 4 im BfjBjBjBBBffBB t wiu'Wi y f y y-? -i-. :y -":- v: a - kit i i f . t . f ... -.w'tlW lit Bi;il,rii ' 4 ; 4A la Owl Drug Store at'Llpman, Wolfe & Co.'a 1 " ', ' ,'''vihi , 5 i.

Mr. Potts acquiesced and the harpv nl CKMigenlal couple struck out for the H ;I Keats Auto Co., at Seventh and Hum Vide streets. Keats U an nffuM-1 sort of a gentleman and showed them nil the different machines he carrier the Thomas Flyer and runabout, the Dulrk. the Packard, the Pope Hartford.

They were great ly pleased with the selections find sld thev ki.' w tliov would be. "W'c have found, or rather our family his, by I years of trading that this house Is a ' one priced, square dealing concern.

The firm name is a household word In I the state of Oregon." "I am not going to run around this town any further without a new suit of clothes," was the way Mr. Potts broke It, and a good reason too. One may fool people some of the, time, but not all the time." ' After purchasing his Knox hats he went across the big clothing store to the furnishing goods der'ftrtir:cnt find i laid In a full supply of Milrts, collars, I tics and fancy hosiery. i "T don't believe you can see very well," was Mrs. potts' accusation. "You know how oii squinted at cvervthlng we have bought so far. We're married now, so you needn't hide your weak nesses especially when It Is sn easily detected." "Yes. you know.

I know If my lady friends In Salem had anything like this they would be tickled." A molar of Mr. Potts' aches! What's the matter! Candy started It. "That's easy." said Mary, "we'll Just fly In this brand new auto of ours down to Pr. A. Wise, at the corner of Washington and Third streets. I have heard of him for 20 years or more." "Look out, Mary, or you II give away your age pretty soon to that 'nosey' Journal ence If I do. I've drawifT my prlie and got a well, w,c'll nrt mention It Just now. Here the Dr. W. A.

You know, it's a fact that the people of Salem buy more drugs and patent medicines, as well as fancy toilet articles, of Llpman, Wolfe & Co.'s Owl Out Rate Drug Store than any store In Portland, t have heard It's true of other towns In the state of Or egon. It's the same with the fine big department stores In the east. I no ticed when I was east last year that the big department stores had the call on the business In their drug and toilet ware department Now. you know a store like L,lpman, Wolfe Co.'s, which buys In Immense quantities, can buy cheaper than the ordinary drug store. Of course the store must do Just like Llpman, Wolfe & Co. and make this feature of their business one of the lly. Then they listened to Mr. Bruce play in his artistic and inimitable man ner on the player pianos, and took the elevator to Ellers' recital hall and lis tened to the rendition of a number of classical pieces on a 2,000 Welte-Mlc-non. "Isn't that Just like Paderewskl played that Tenth Hungarian Rhapso dic?" inquired Mrs. Potts, and she seemed pleased when informed It wae his exact Interpretation reproduced. "Well, Mary, come on. We must go down town and get some sheet music for our new piano, and, by the way isn't It a beauty?"

I know one thing, and that Is, they carry a very fine stock and own their own building and some other fellow's build ing In Portland ton.'' "Oh! yes. Tom, Gadsby's is the most comprehensive stock of all grades of house furnishings on the coast today, and Just think, be list of pieces I gave you this morning Torn?" Tom fumbled around In his pockets a long time and finally found It, and It took the clerk, when they arrived at the store, but a moment to wait upon them with the aid of her new filing cabinets. "Qravea A Co. have a mighty extensive stock. J)on't you think so, Tom?'- said Mrs. Potts, as they emerged from this new estab lishment In the Couch building on Fourth street near Washington. "Yes. that's so. but do you really think you'll be satisfied with that 1500 talking machine you've bought. That's what I am a, little worried about. You know that's a good deal of money to put Jnto a talking machine." "You re right It Is. Tom, but It's worth' every cent of it. There's only one omer In Salem, . .

You know, my ear, Rosenthal's sells such makes of shoes as are only sold to exclusive shoe stores of the very first rank, and they'll charge you no more than you'll pay In New York or any other big city.
