By E. G. H.
Not long aero a friend sent me a
copy of "Arts and Decorations," which
s a magazine dealing with beautily
ng the home. It claims that man is
i home-loving creature and that sur
roundings unconsciously affect him
and mould his character. It has been
noted that people who live in clean,
well-appearing places are good citi
zens and one of the causes for vice
and corruption is due to the fact that
the parties in question have never
been surrounded witn the influences
which make for decency and right
living. House furnishings come in,
therefore, for more and more atten
tion as we study the shortcomings of
man.
- As a -community, few places rank
higher than our own, this in general
intelligence, well-being, and appear
ance. And when we search for the
reason we find that to a great meas
ure it is due to the excellent stock of
house furnishings which our fellow
citizens, the Case Brothers handle and
sell to people living in all parts of the
county.
M. L. Case started in the furniture
business and in his present location
about six years ago. A short time
later his brother, George, entered the
firm and today they have the largest

and most up-to-date establishment in
tnis county, which is the same as
saying for many miles in any direc
tion. They have devoted to the fur
niture business one of the largest
stores in the city, it being in demen
sions 38x240. with a warehouse KOxtiO
directly behind it. It is possible for
them to fully equip a man for house
keeping and all that's necessary for
any young man to do is to make a
satisfactory payment on the goods,
put an ad. in the Herald for a wife
and, like Andy Rood, take your choice
of the many applicants.
In their store along the north side
you will find various kinds of kitchen
ranges, such as the well known Mon
arch, Crescent or Columbia makes, all
lavorites tor low fuel consumDtion
and baking purposes. These can be
equipped with water attachments so
that hot water can be had at all times
anywhere in the house. Patent heat
regulators come attached.
Small heaters for rooms are here
in abundance and at a price to suit
any purse. Everything that vou can
think of, and many things you -can't
for the kitchen are displayed. The
popular and durable aluminum ware
for cooking purposes is handled. I
saw one combination boiler and baker
which I was told sells for $1.80 that
will last a lifetime, giving useful ser
vice every day. Perculators, which
have made the old coffee pot a curiosi
ty, I also noted. "We sell many per
culators," Mr. Case aid. Bread mix
ing machines, which make breadmak
ing sure and satisfactory and elimi
nate work are in stock. Linoleums of
all grades, the modern floor covering
for kitchens and other rooms as well,
can be secured here.
"We sell anything and everything
in paints and wall paper," was the
way Mr. Case summed up that part of
me ousiness. Hung up tor your
scrutiny are rugs of every size and
description. Rugs and polish floors
have made houses with carpets take
on an antiquated appearance. Some
of these sell for $30, but good, ser
viceable rugs can be had for much
less.
Parlor and bed room furniture of
difVerent woods and finishes 1 noted
in the stock. Most of them simple,
straight line, substantial sort, the
kind that are unassuming and don t
harass your nerves. Nothing guady
or noisy poes with the Case Company.
ah ot the nigh prade turmture they
sell will lend itselt to the surround
ings with no clash. There is a quiet
dignity that is substantiated by its
utility and capacity to serve. Every
thing in evidence must be dignified,
and so with furniture.
Metal beds and the best of mat
resses are the kind that this firm
deals in. If you had a sleep speed
ometer you would register more miles
on these beds than in any oiher make.
They induce sleep, and sleep promotes
good digestion and good circulation,
which make for bigger earning ca
pacity. I was next shown the porch furni
ture. Porch furniture is a new thing.
The first houses were built without
porches. Life was a dreary thing be
fore the modern porch swings came in
Wicker chairs and rockers, hammocks,
ceiling swings, patent screens which
lend an air of privacy, all are at your
service at this store and at prices
which make them necessities, not lux
uries. Mr. Case also brought out
some sleeping tents. Think of a man
sleeping in the close, poorly venti
lated bedroom, such as the average is,
when.he can sleep in a tent for J9.75.
Physicians tell us that most of our
diseases are house diseases. "Get out
of the house," they say, evidently
knowing that tents can be had and at
reasonable prices. For those who
will not, I suggest you get one of the
Cace Co.'s vacuum sweepers which
gets the dirt, dust and all foreign sub
stances such as microbes,! bugs and
flies which live on the floor.
Now is the time of the year to
equip that boy or girl who intends to
go to college this Fall with a servi
ceable trunk and suitcase, the kind,
in other words, you buy here. Trunk
troubles vanish when you accept Mr.
Case's advice in the matter. Also it
might be mentioned that baby car
riages of any particular kind that you
deem best can be secured at home.
Pictures suitable for any room in the
house are kept and if you have one to
frame, it will be done right and on
snort notice.
Chinaware, glassware, and the bet
ter grades of graniteware are kept in
sto?k. These long winter nights
which will soon be here are no terrors
to those who have one or two of the
"Airo-o-lite" gas tamps which make
the dark places light and make home
reading a profitable entertainment.
Lamps of all kinds and prices, in
cluding lanterns to enable us to steal
a few hours of the night in work, are
here for your selection.
Countless articles of every descrip
tion, all of which gravitate to their
proper place in the home, are sold
by the Case Furniture Company.
These are marked in figures that are
inteded to sell them. In the entire
store I do not remember of seeing one,
out-of-date article. Everything is of
the latest mintage, Including the new
steel burying vaults, which it is
stated is the hardest thing in this
world to open, a feature which should
commend itself to those possessed
with uncertainty regarding their
chances hereafter. One man found
that a bed which he bought from a
well known catalogue house was sold
by this firm for thirty-five cents
less. His name can be learned at the
store. Their motto is not cheap goods
at cheap prices but good goods at
fair prices. 1 don t predict that the
Case Brothers will build any public
libraries in this county but they enjoy

Andrew isn't at the present time.
When you are in need of anything in
the furniture line you can do no bet
ter than to tell your needs to the Case
Company, men who are posted on
furniture facts, to be found at their
store in Heppner, which is in Morrow
County, Oregon.
