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

Communication to many parts of

The advertising of the IJnrnura S:

with the arrivnl in town of the No.

35 men on bonrd. Today seven teams
were sent into the country in as many

date is announced fur Monday. Au

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. They nro

are also -10 elephants nnd a whole

FINE PIANOS
AT MIGHTY SMALL PRICES
Only One Week More to Secure Your Choice of
Highest Guaranteed Pianos at Unheard of Prices.
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.
