TAN OXFORDS
The phenomenal and sudden demand for
Tan Oxfords which has sprung up so sud
denly through the east and west caught
many manufacturers unprepared to serve
their customers. This demand does not ex
ist in New York alone, but prevails through
out the larger cities of both east and west.
Golden Iirown is the color.
We have them in stock.

ADVERTISE.
There Is a certain risque story that
yoong men tell when they get off by
themselves, the burden of whioh is
that it pays to advertise. It oertalnly
does and if Urauta Pass and Jose
phine ooonty are to be developed to
their fullest eitent, it has got to be
done by advertising. Tbe oitiel of
BooTEeo" California are the fluishsd
product of Judicious advertising.
We of the Paolflo Coast realise that
there are several important drawbacks
to Southern California as 'an Mdeal
borne. But yon take your Eastern
man who has retired from ;bniine
and who wlshea to mwnd the renmlnd
er of his days in ease and physical
comfort, he thinks that Southern
California is located right neit to
the gates of Paradise. Nothing but
advertising did it. Now the same
can be done for Grants Pass. The
oliuiate here cannot be exoelled by auy
pot in the Temperate Zones. Civill
ration and primitive Nature are closer
together than at auy other jiomi on
the Pacific Coant and that is what is
attractive to the Hastem man. (lame
of allTkiiitlit is abuudniit withiu walk
ing distance of Urania Paxs. Yon
can go up or down the Rogue River
from towu and oatoh your salmon Mid
trout and in the hills on el:her side
are 'deer in abundance. No city of
Southern California can come any
where neiir this as a place for a rosi
deuce fur the tnnii who wishes to get
the hirst out of life ; not rotisidering
it at all from the viewpoint of the
mail who wa'da to make money for
that is n wonderful thliiK all by itself.
Keiiiomlar Shaktwleare : "We are
advertised by our loving friends," and
add to It the language of the street

COMMENCEMENT.
From now on until the middle of
June is Commencement time In hund
reds of schools and oolleges scattered
over the United States. It is the
ending of school davs for thousands of
yoong men and women and tbeir going
out to battle with the world. Ihe
average student takes a rosy view of
life, being yonng he looks at the bright
side of things and the majority of them
have been sheltered from the ooffs and
blows of the world by the parental
wing. Commencement Is thus a crisis
In the student life. The active work.
a-day world is an altogether different
place than the class room. The man
who was successful studsnt will not
necessarily be assured of snooessfe.1
life for the qualities demanded by each
situation are different.
Thus for the past few weeks students
have been preparing for this great
event in their life. There are orations
to prepare and learn by heart ; dresses
to be selected and have made and an
assortment of college yells to be prac
ticed op.
Engene Wood has a very readable
artlole In the current Everbyody on
Commencement Back Home which
from the oontext was evidently Hoos
ierdoui as be speaks of Vice president
Fairbanks as a stadsnt.
On Commencement Dsy the world
gives every student the glad band and
a pleasants smile but the day after
Commencement it Is an altogether
different proposition.

husliand's divorce suit that live thous
