Tho worst forest flro In tho history of that part of tho country Is raging near Balgrove, according to reports brought hero by Ned Calkins. Calkins estimates that each quar ter Bectlon burned contained from 20.000,000 to 4,000,000 of cholco timber. It Is reported that a rancher nnni ed Dow was cremated In n flro at Mica Day, whoro tho flames leaped a Coour d'Alcne forest in Idaho and reports from the fire-stricken districts Indicate thnt tho situation is encour aging. Trenches have been dug and prac tically encompass the burning areas. Reports from Hope, Idaho, state that tho town is almost surrounded by fire. A heavy rain fell last night, which probably will reduce the fire to such proportions that they can be controlled by the hundreds of fight ers. A rain of six hours' duration early Sunday put the foresters again in control of tho fires In the Kootenai district, according to advices from Morava, Idaho. Communication to many parts of Idaho nnd Montana where fires have been reported was prostrated yester day by the electric storm and heavy rains, but" It is believed that the heavy downpour of water hag prac tically extinguished most of the small er fires.

No high winds hnve blown In tho Hasklns for Health. The advertising of the IJnrnura S: Bailey circus took a hie boom today with the arrivnl in town of the No. 1 advertising enr, with n brigade of 35 men on bonrd. Today seven teams were sent into the country in as many directions with men to bill nil the surrounding districts. There will be three more ears come along nt short intervals nnd with them more than n hundred men. ench of whom will hnve some pnrticulnr duty to perform toward the booming of the big evont, and in nil probability Medford will seo the largest crowd thnt has ever assembled here on a circus day. The date is announced fur Monday. Au gust 29, nnd thero will be hut one performance given, and that will start in the morning, nt 10 o'clock. The management of tho Barnum & Bailey show claim that they are bringing here the largest circus that hns ever visited tho I'ncific const, and thnt fact is -carried out by uic rnilrond contracts, which call for the transportation of 83 cars. When tins great equipment is unloaded and the huge tents, which nre the lnrgeit ever constructed, are erected upon the show grounds, it all represents a reculnr traveling city with a popula tion of 1280 people, who nre actually employed. Four hundred of these people nre performers nnd most of them nre from ubroad.

There nre 700 horses nnd n menog eric of 100 cages, including every known specie of rnrc wild benst tli.it enn possibly live in captivity. There are also -10 elephants nnd a whole fnmily of giraffes. This family is mndo mot complete by the addition of n baby girnffc, horn last Jnnu arv. On the morning of exhibition here there will be a street parade Hint will be far superior to nnv seen here before. The mnnngement hne spent nn enormous amount of money tliis year, in making this tho most elaborate procession that can be im agined. It is filled with new nnd costly parndo glories that were just brought over last winter from the Barnum & Bailey European hend quarters. A sensational featuro of tho pro gram this year is tho act of Despe rado, a young Frenchman, who leaps from n pedestal in tho top of the big tent, and alights upon his bare chest on a small curved skid, placed oa tho ground some 80 feet below.

Every homo in MedL'ord and vicinity may now own a piano, whether it be a brand new piano or one which is slightly used. The past week has broken all records in piano selling in Medford. We have taken in exchange on Player Pianos several good instruments, most of them in excellent condition, which must be disposed of in the next few days. EILER'S MUSIC HOUSE is noted for always furnishing the most for the money; "the very best of everything at the price that's right" has been the watchword here always, but our word for it, pianos good ones dependable ones the kind that every one loves and cherishes, were never heretofore obtainable at such low prices, and what is more, never heretofore could a piano be obtained on such wonderfully little payments. raEADVANTAGES OF BUYING OF EILERS MUSIC HOUSE AVe will sell nothing that Ave know is not right. When we sell to you it is with the knowledge and belief that, if we satisfy you, you will influence your friends to deal with us. AVe have utilized every modern economy in order that we might give better value and better satisfaction to our patrons. Buying and shipping in tremendous quantities: factory inspection of pianos by our expert representa tives; a binding guarantee with every piano seld: a corps of expert tuners and regulators all these have contrib uted toward making the big following we now have and making our business what it is. As the piano purchaser knows the advantages in buying from the Eilers Music House, so the manufacturer realizes the advantage in selling through Eilers Stores. No three piano stores in any large city combined can offer the piano purchaser more variety in pianos than we do. Prom America's oldest and supreme the grand old Chickering to the genuine Autopiano the latest creation there is scarcely a name, well and favorably known to the piano trade, that does not find representation in the Eilers Stores. The Kimball, the Lester, the Smith & Barnes, the I eland, the ITazelton, the Decker, the Schumann, the Hobart M. Cable, the Ilallet k Davis, the Marshall & Wendell, the Story k Clark all these and many others are significant of piano excellence. NOTICE TO CHECK HOLDERS Some people who have won cash credits in our recent advertising campaign may wonder how it is possible for the manufacturers to give an actual cash credit on the purchase of a piano. We want you to know why it is possible and how in the end it is going to be profitable to the manufacturers, the Eilers Music House and yourself. hi every large business now-a-days advertising is an important feature. Pew people buy more than one piano in a lifetime. It is therefore necessary for the piano manufacturers and dealers to continually find new customers. Some try to accomplish this by magazine advertisements, which in some magazines cost as much as $1000 a page. Others spend big sums of money in newspaper advertising. A number of manufacturers pay large sums of money to great foreign artists, such as Paderewski, to play their pianos in public, hoping in this way to interest piano buyers. Others spend vast sums in billboard advertising, theater curtains, programs, etc., etc. Most dealers pay commissions to music teachers and others in order to v;ot their influence. Did it ever occur to you that all this expense adds not one cent in value to the piano itself? The manufacturers who are interested in this publicity campaign believe that the best advertising they can do is to place their pianos in homes in different portions of the state, where they will be played and heard, and seen. They believe that it is much fairer and better to take the money that ordinarily goes for this expensive advertising and'give it to a limited number of piano buyers, each one of whom will advertise these pianos in their different local ities! These pianos so placed will interest the friends and neighbors of the purchasers and create more piano buy ers. That inturn enables Eilers Music House to buy more pianos from the factories. The manufacturers interested in this contest firmly believe in this method of advertising. Every satisfied cus tomer becomes an advertiser for the piano for veal's and years. That is good business. Tt is good sense. And the money that usually goes to subsidize great artists, to buy ex travagant newspaper and magazine advertising, and to pay commissions, goes into the pocket, where it belongs. This explains why the prices ot pianos are identically the same, whether you have a credit check or not, wheth er von buv for cash or on time. DOX'T PALL TO CALL TO-MORROW.
