The Old Maids' Convention, which will be held in Artisan hall tomorrow, Friday, evening, promises to be one of the most laughable entertainments that has been given in Lexington for some time. On Tuesday last we were shown through the new residence of ' A. K. Fuller, which has just been completed. The finishing and decorating was ex ecuted by Samuel C. Jackson. " The parlor and bedroom down stairs has the same decoration, which is an ar tistic job with a high grade of wall paper, lace curtains and extra good quality of shades. The kitchen and dining room Is finished with Santa, a wall oil cloth, on the ceiling and sides, except the wainscoting, which is fin ished in Lincresta panels, a compress ed paper, one eight of an inch thick. These rooms can be washed or var nished, as the occupants may desire; without Injuring the finish on the walls. The stairway and hall upstairs Is fin ished in Japanese tapestry paper, with Santa for wainscoating. The stairway, hall, kitchen and dining room has gold beading covering all joints. The four bedrooms upstairs' are decor ated differently and the entire house has a tinge of green in each room. The outside of the house is painted a This Space Reserved For W. G. SCOTT & CO. Lexington, Oregon. Steger 6r Son s tPiano factories Has fouJ gigantic plants in one covering, with' eectric power plant and lumber yards 23 acres of ground. They are locatad in the town of Steger, III., 29 miles from Chi cago, and are supplisd with lumber from the mills of Messrs Steger & Sons, who own thirty thousand acres of virgin forest located in the state of Wisconsin. These facts are cited to give you a basis from wh'ch to reason. With so enormous a plant, capacity 20,000 pianos per year. with vast purchases of supplies for spot cash, with the neccessary capital to buy the beat of material and the best of workman ship, the prospective buyer needs no furth argument to prove that S,teger & Sons are in a position to give greater values for the money than any other piano establishment ment in the world. It taes great execute aqility to manage such a gigantic factory successfully and af ter the pianos are built the great problem is how to market them with the least expense possible. The resourcefulness of Mr. Steger was equal to the occasion. Backed by $2,000, 000 capital, he threw open the doors of the "Bank of Stager," placing credit and capi tal in the hands of a network of Pacific Coast agencies on the ingenious plan of monthly payments from dealer and custom ers, (a purelX Steger lnuovation) In place of long time given to firms who represent state agencies, thus placing the small deal er on equal footing with the larger dealers. The wholesale prices to dealers ars bas ed not on their capital or their individual business, but on the distribution of 10,000 pianos yearly for the states mentioned a bove. It is doubtful whether the three largest piano houses on the coast market this many pianos during the year. ' Don't you see that Mr. Steger has solved the problem of marketing the finished pro duct of the largest piano factories in the world with the least possible expense to tha consumer? This is an age of keen business competi tion and rivalry, and the successful mer chant is he who incurs the least expense in marketing his goods. Messrs. Steger & Sons, with their im mense capital have solved this problem for their representatives. Mm. J. V. Steger, starting life as a me chanic, without a dollar, stands the most unique figure In the world today. The wisest In pianodom wonder wonder what will be the next move of this mighty finan cier for no oue can circumvent him. . Inside or out,' the better the light, the better the Steger piano shows up, for from top to bottom the material used Is the best money can buy. LEXINGTON MEAT MARKET J J. V.
