HENDERSON Habit Back LOCAL AND PERSONAL. _______ T LACED I Hi front laced models 1 a are the culmination of the latest and best ideas in corset fashion. They re model the figure, giving it a perfectly moulded back, giving it lines of grace and symmetry and the long, ta pering curves which are so artistically beautiful. They reduce the full figure, giviug it the flattened front and slender hip effects. They are absolutely hygieuic and have the endorsement of the leading physicians and dressmakers. W e call special at tention to the model illustrated which is made in two lengths, high bust, for the tall figure, and medium bust, for the shorter waisted stout figure. This model is extremely long over the back and hips. The extra lacing in the back from the waist-line down (termits an absolutely perfect adjustment over the back and assists further in keeping the hips in perfect subjection, thus giviug the so-called hipless figure. W e carry the front laced corsets in a varied line of materials at prices ranging from $2.50 to $12. W e cordially invite the ladies of our city and vicinity to visit our corset depart ment and inspect these most exquisite models. Consultation and fitting free. Rees-Wallace Co. W HERE YO U DO BETTER Back From California. Nesmith Baseball Club Jas. Porter and wife returned home Sunday from a winter’s so journ in Southern California. They were accompanied by Mr. Porter’s brother Johu, of Lake county, Oregon, who left this city seventeen years ago, but who readily recognizes many of the old timers about Cottage drove. Mr. Porter and wife report a very wet winter in southern California, more liufall than was recorded in this valley, in fact it rained so hard down there that cement pave ments were undermined and washed out in the city of I.os Angeles, bridges swept away and much damage done to orchards and other property. Mr. Porter says money is plentiful down there and is eagerly loaned at four to six per cent and that a four per cent in vestment is considered a good one. Farm lauds sell at from $10O to $1000 per acre and do not net the holders as great a per cent of profit as well tilled lauds in this valley. Town property is also high, but not in proportion to de sirable farm property. The coun try about Los Angeles Is almost wholly kept up by the tourists and sight seers who spend their money freely and are fleeced in every imaginable way. Mr. Porter says “ enough of California forme; give me old Oregon every time.” A new baseball club was organ ized in this city this week to con test for honors on the diamond this season, with Orvil Knapp, of the Griffiu, Veatch Co. as manager. The name selected by the boys for their team is “ Nesmith Baseball Club” and it is composed of a picked nine from the local players who have won honors for Cottage Grove heretofore. Here’s wish ing the “ Nesmith Team ” all kiuds of success. This team should lie a winner this season as well as Nesmith county in 1910. Cottage Grove Parties Litigate. Baptist Church Services.

An Eloquent Sermon It is not often that a Cottage Grove audience has an opportunity of hearing such an able and elo quetit lecture as the one delivered at the M. E. church Saturday even ing by Dr. Fletcher Homan, presi dent of Willamette university, Sa lem. His subject was “ Books and Brains,” and it was a brainy sub ject handled most ably by a brainy man. A large audience listened attentively to the lecture and many people brought good liooks and donated them to the public school library including one nice set of encyclopaedia. Music was furn ished by the young ladies of the high school. It was announced that President Campbell of the 1'. of O. would deliver a lecture here soon when another opportunity will be given to donate more books to the public school library. Dr. 1 Ionian preached two eloquent and helpful sermons at the M. E church Sunday to large congrega tious. 4 L % The Chicago Association of Commerce have decided that it is itni»ssible for them to send the hundred and fifty school boys aud girls for a visit throughout Oregon this summer, but the discussion of the subject in the great mid-conti nent metropolis has created a tre mendous amount of enthusiasm, and it is thought now that prob ably some other city, possibly St. Louis, may take up the enterprise and make it a success.
