The body is of maroon mohair plush, having bor-
vase, supporting festoons of flowers one curtain
gracefully draped, the other hanging straight to
show the effect when drawn over the door. The val
ance is of the material, the stripe running
transverse, trimmed with heavy cheneile fringe and
tassels. The ceiling of these two rooms are deco
rated similar to the interior of handsome parlor
and the halls adorned by paper of richly blend
ing colors. Whether taken as whole in detail,
the diplay is the finest in its line made north of
San Francisco, and visit to the fair is well repaid
by viewing it even if were the only attraction.
The presence of a wide awake resident partner in
San Francisco, with extensive eastern connections,
enables the firm to furnish, without delay anything

in carpets in which the house does large business.
In order to keep up with the demand for latest and
goods watched with care, and the best possible

rooms of this firm. In every feature that goes to
ability to fully supply all wants. selections to suit
all tastes prices uniformly the lowest that prudence
dictate, and honorable dealing, Messrs Shndler

THEIR FACTORY.
The furniture factory of this energetic firm, is
located at Wilsburg mile south OF the shops
on the o. Il G. railroad. Steam power, taxes, and
interest invested money in factories in cities
no light burden to manufactures. As the mariner
their factory shindIer & Chadbourne avoided all
needless outlay and heavy running expenses, where
others, less W1Se nave fallen into those errors.
They bought about two years ago ten acres OF land
with of the best water privileges in the state,
erected suitable buildings put in machinery of the
latest and best kinds, and there, within four miles
of Portland they produce every grade of furniture
required in their large and growing business. We
through the factory some months ago, and have
not kseen establishment which seems to be con-
Quoted with more system, better management.
We see from sanctum daily great loads Of their
crossing at the ferry from the factory to
the wareroOms.
The most successful Touring mills in this state
in fact the only profitable ones-have been those
by water power, while steam power mills have been
far from profitable. In New England the great chair
and furniture factories in the interior adjoining
streams furnishing motive power. The greatest
furniture factories Of Grand Rapids Michigan,
have certainly acted wisely locatingher factory
in the country and using the motive power furnish
ed without price by nature. Great piles OF ash,
maple, spruce, cedar, walnut and fir stacked
about .he factory years supply is always
stored to insure proper seasoning, and one of
the most annoying DEMONSTRATING and swelling
of furniture-thus avoided. Only the most skilled
ry, parlor and dining room furniture are produced
in large quantities. and from the lowest priced chair
to the finest bedstead nothing is allowed to leave
the factory without strict examination and the
ance of perfect workmanship in every detail.
The stores and warerooms of the firm located
on First and Front streets between Morrison and
YamhiH and occupy three floors fifty by two hun
dred feet,
What we have described of their exhibit in the pa
viion at any time be seen largely multiplied by
look their establishment where all visitors wheth
purchasers or not will receive every attention.
