Johns will bo annexed to Portland,

highly probable that It wilt ho many

It Is not necessary, and then you
know it may be dangerous. The
car may run off the track or you
tuny get diseased meat that might
cause illness in your family. It is
much safer to buy your meats at
home, where they can be relied
upon to be first class in every par
ticular.
BITGOOD & COLE
Keep nothing on hand but what
they can guarantee, and when you
buy meat from them you may rest
assured Hint it is strictly all right.
Their prices arc as low as good
meat can be sold for. When you
pay less the meat is not so good.
If you arc not already a patron of
this market, a trial order will con
vince you that you cun do no bet

Wc have a number of articles on hand which we arc
desirous of disposing of. They were purchased by the
former management to be given out as premiums on
subscriptions, but as the solicitors invariably prefer
cash commission instead of premiums, they arc now
placed on sale at a bargain.
We have a limited number of shears that retail
in any store at not less than $1.00 per pair. They are
guaranteed for five years, and have a thumb screw on
the back which prevents them from becoming loose.
Drop in and examine a pair. Bargain price,

A small number of nickel silver spoons, guaran
teed to be composed of the same metal throughout,
easily worth $1,25 anywhere. Bargain price,

A handsome set of silver knives and forks, value

Gilt mantel clock worth $3.25, can be had for $3.
A very fine 26-piecc set of Rogers' silverware,

All of these are genuine bargains, and outside of
the shears and spoons wc have only one set of each
variety, so if you are looking for anything iu this line
it would be wise to take advantage of this opportunity.
A careful inspection of each article is invited. When
these are disposed of no more shall be ordered, as the
jewelry business is not in our line.
