OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1905 ANOTHER WEEK ONLY BEFORE Christmas Don't put off till tomorrow what, you can do today. This is especially true at Christmas time. Many leading papers have had long editorial articles on the duly and ne cessity of making Christmas purchases early. And we know from our long experience in selling holiday goods that the early buyer fares much the best. Our time is al ways at your disposal but at the last, minute the rush makes it impossible to HELP you in your selections. But if you come now we will have time to show and explain everything and we may have suggestions that will be of value to you. Anyhow we want you to come and look over our immense stock it's worth seeing even if you do not buy. Of course you will give some books this year. For some friends nothing else will do; for others they do better than anything else you can afford to buy; for children and young people it would not be Christmas without books. Each year more books are given and each year finds us with a bigger and better stock. But our stock is at its height, now and hundreds are selected every day, and it will soon begin to dwindle. Have you made your selections yet? Our book salesman can help you now. Next week it will be a jam- Remember we meet or beat all department store or mail order prices.
