Morris designs. and faithfully reproduces in
simple little patterns the tasteful colors of the
Landowner goods. These STYLES are intended
for bedrooms and summer residences where in

THOMAS WILSON,
Justice of the Peace.

A SUGGESTION. lille the bridge is
in course Of construction it would he a
good plan for the citizens Of Reseburg
to have Sidewalk or foot path on the
north side of the bridge to accommo-
date foot passengers. We have heard
this suggested by nu IL bcr of citizens,
and have made inquiry and learn that
it will cost about eight hundred or one
thousand dollars to have this addition
to the bridge constructed. This addi-
ton may at first seem unnecessary at
the present time, but it will soon be
absolutely required and will cost much
more than it would to have it con-
structed with the bridge at the present
time. 1t is necessity at the very out
set, and would render footmen and
teamsters less liable to accidents. Ii
some of our enterprising citizens will
take the matter in hand and raise the
requisite fund for this purpose arrange
ments can be made with the county
and contractors to have this addition
to the structure. It would confer a
lasting benefit upon the citizens of East
and West Roseburg and save accidents
and probably life and property.

The Popular Approval.

Of the now famous Syrup of Figs as the
most eflicacious and agreeable preparation
ual constipation, billiousness, indigestion
and kindred ills, has been won by the wise
plan pursued by the California Fig Syrup
Company. Knowing that any remedy truly
beneficial in its effects on the system, and at
the same time pleasant to tie taste, will
meet with rapid sale, the company, throagh
its agent for Roseburg, S. Hamilton; and
Page & Dimmick of Oakland, gives away
sample bottles free of charge. Tryi and
judge for yourself. Large bottles fifty cents
or one dollar.

Scenery Of the Pacific Northwest.

Ihe desire to possess artistic pictures
OF the scenery of the Pacific Northwest
IS feeling shared in common bv the
residents of this region, and the thou
sands Of tourists who annually travel
great distances to behold it. To make
satisfactory collection of photographs
is almost impossible, and is only ac-
complishel at an expense far greater
than the majority of people are willing
or able to undergo. To meet this
urgent want, ";5oave enir Album OF
the Pacific Northwest" has been issued,
containing. thirty art photographs
OF the most prominent and representa-
tive scenes Of Oregou, Washington
California, Idaho and Montana. Among
them are excellent pictures Of Urnpqua
Mountains, Crater Lake, Mount Hood,
Multnomah Falls, yellow stone Park,
etc. The album is neatly bound In
cloth, embossed with gold and makes a
neat ornament for the center table.
The price, seyenty-fve cents, only rep
rescnts the cost Of three ordinary pho
