Doing For an Open River.
Pictures are an attraction which can
not be overcome. It has become the
universal custom, when one wishes to
draw, in any line, to adopt system of
illustrations and the more artistic and
helegant the designs produced, the greater
Ithe attraction and lis consequent bene-
fits. From Astoria to Utah there have
been this year models of beauty and
finish innumerable, to be admired while
the admirer perused comments accom-
panying which ''speak louder than
words,'' to form desirable impressions
Aof the subjects treated.
Il Of such as these are two handsome
Photographic views laid on our table
This week with the compliments of Mr..
Linus Hubbard, The Dalles.

inches in size, and contains view of the
ksteamer Regulator at The Dalles wharf
| taking on wheat. It is a waterscope

all seaport markets insures the highest
