You think "gowns," and, quick as a meteor "OLDS, WORTMAN as KING" travels through your gray matter. Think photography, and instantly, in burning letters, the name "MOORE" appears on the screen of one's mind. What "TIFFANY" is to-the jewelry world what "LIBBEY" means stamped on beautiful cut glass gems WHAT OLDS, WORTMAN & KING" stands for in the fashion world that same is the name "MOORE" embossed upon a superb likeness of oneself or friends. "MOORE" embraces, surrounds and bounds all that's best today in modern photography. Naturally enough then this store turns to "MOORE" in making an arrangement whereby we are going to pay for and GIVE AWAY ABSOLUTELY FREE 10,000 SITTINGS AND 10,000 PHOTOGRAPHS BY THIS FAMOUS LOCAL PHOTOGRAPHER, this artist in high-grade work, TO OUR PATRONS-FREE. ' WHY THIS OFFER IS MADE OUR OBJECT Is to induce early morning shopping. As the great Portland public is aware, this store has been held back from needed expansion, for nearly a year now, by the slow construction of the new Sixth-Street Annex building. 'Tis surely promised us next month now good. More power to the contractors. But, MEANWHILE, we're crowded away beyond the capacity of the old building by th3 enormous shopping throngs that favor us with their patronage. Any way to help ourselves and our public? Yes. By inducing earlier shopping. The aisles that become clogged later in the day with a surging mass of eager buyers are seldom crowded during the earlier hours. We're going to try and divide the overflow business, so as to make it easier for our good clientele to shop here at their favorite store, and for our helpers to wait upon them as thoroughly as we desire they' should. Monday being a special bargain day , WE MAKE THIS TEMPTING OFFER KINDLY PRESENT THIS TICKET AT ONCE for exchange for Plat inum Souvenir Bond, at desk as advertised.

If you'll read these items you'll no longer wonder why this is termed the "Silk Store" by Portland women folk, or why we do the silk businesaof the Northwest. You've heard of the merciful man who, wanting a dock-tailed dog, cut off an inch of tail at a time because it seemed cruel to snip it off at once. That's in line with the silk story. Last year was not a "Silk Year" and stocks of raw and prepared silk piled up. London silk men had 77 per cent more last Decemherthan the same month a year previous. Instead of taking their loss at once they've dribbled out the lots and American silk mills, being in .shape to buy, have bought, as bargains offered. Some failures occurred and the stocks of such mills were finished by new owners who got the goods at a loss. It's sunrise again in the silk world. A bright day. is at hand and, for a big, long day's work silk men want to start with cleared decks. Even, the first of the season's newest silks are swept out with the rest. 'Tis a momentous time for silk buying and OUR BUYER IS NOW IN NEW YORK. That's how we are enabled to offer you for the next three days, new Fancy Suit Silks, the balance of a manufacturer's stock bought by our buyer, now' In the market, at a tre mendous sacrifice; all colors in the assortment; our regular 85c grade; what some silk sellers call their $1.00 values Special for & r- three days only, lf yard nrvv A Big Taffeta Bargain Regular 73c 19-Inch All Pure Silk Black Taffeta, warranted to wear, woven on every yard; an excellent wearing grade Special for three J? days only, I C yard ro" Regular 51.00 21-Inch All Pure Silk Col ored Taffeta, the beat wearing silk and value In the city; all colors in . the line, white, cream and black In cludedSpecial for three r. vyc More Bonnet's Black.
