WHY WE DO THE TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT WE HAVE AGAIN FULLY OPENED THE GENTLEMEN'S TAILORING BUSINESS AND DEPARTMENT When the Fail mg people began to build this big block we moved into a small shack of a store for a year or more, and we had no room or place to carry our big stock of woolens so we sold them out in a bunch and only kept the workroom part for manufacturing. Every day we see dozens of gentlemen our old customers on the street. It is to let them and all others immediately know that we again have the LARGEST AND MOST COMPLETE STOCK OF WOOLENS IN THIS CITY. J. M. Acheson never did and never will buttonhole people on the street to buy goods of him. He thinks they don't like it-and it is a sure thing he don't. This is expensive advertising the most expensive in the world, but the best in the world OUR OLD RELIABLE MOTTO IS STILL IN FORCE ONLY ALL-WOOL GOODS USED "IT SHALL NOT COST YOU ONE CENT IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED." A Tremendous Stock' of Woolens for Men's Suit That's what you will think perhaps say when you come in. It is double that of any concern in Portland that means you can find what you want-we ask you to take nothing for granted. Linings, trimmings, etc., will be exhibited to you. No dissatisfaction will be tolerated. Our motto applies all over. HAVE MADE IT HANDY FOR YOU Gentlemen's Suitings and Woolens will be displayed this week on the first floor of our main store. The cutting, fitting and making is on the fifth floor of our build ing the Acheson Building. WE HAVE THE MAN TAILORS TO FIT MAN OR WOMAN FIFTH AND ALDER STS.
