In beat ing stoves we have the largest as well as the most carefully selected; stock in the city. The staves ve' offer were not bougkfc-ts an experi ment bat as a eertaiaty. We know what each stove will do, khd they were bought for cash, so the price is right. We have special ties in heaters, beside oar regular lines of Garland, Argand and Su perior stoves and ranges.

It may be interesting to know that the first steamboat that was ever on the Columbia, si earned down from Vancouver in is:!f. Her name was Beaver. She came i'om England as a saving vessel with all her machinery aboard and was fitted up at Vancouver. Her first trip was to the Sandwich Isl ands with a cargo of wheat and salt salmon. It seems that the feelings of the natives when thev saw the vessel going against the wind and tide, could be better imagined than descibed. ?'ae Beaver belonged to the Hudson Bay company, who used her for a number of ye.i-s and the.i sold he". She i3 now a pensioner, and lying at anchor at Victoiia, B. C, a3 a relic of early day?. Transcript. Sentenced to I'ao.
