Arriving at the Depot of the Oregon Electric Railroad.
-".' Tom Potts and Mary, Ills wife, came
to town yesterday morning; over the
Oregon Eleotrlo railway. "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

In upon the conversation at This point.
"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

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

'extent of Ills fortune for the deposits.
'I don't know that the men behind it are

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

bicycle and motor cycle sundries that
I've seen west of New York. You know
I was there last summer with mamma.

"Now we want a big lot of things,

had apparently had her own way. It

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

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."

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

take advantage of their club plan for

Mr. Potts acquiesced and the harpv nl

"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 should suppose so. I know If my

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.

and Third streets. I have heard of him
for 20 years or more." "Look out,

Store. Yes, I need some very fine per
fume, too. 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?" "Yes, Tom, It has
an exquisite tone."

shoes as are only sold to exclusive shoe
stores of the very first rank, and
they'll charge you no more than you'll

For example, you can't buy a llanan

Portland. It's the same with their

Waterbury children's shoes." "Well.
