good RELIABLE "Old Homestead" Store. HEBE'S A VOLLEY WOBTH TALKING ABOUT;
FOR ALL-DAY PRIDAY SELLING!
It's nothing for us to sell a hundred suits a day common as eating breakfast and some gowns up to $500 in value, too. We always did hear if one
QUALITY they must come to Olds, Wornnan & King for it.
Stupendous
$15 and $S5 Values
LADIES' TAILOR-MADE SUITS IN DRESS OR WALKING STYLES. Our own incomparable, high-class values from New York's leading makers.
These suits are far from the ordinary clap-trap styles heralded as "bargains" by "cheap" stores. These are not the sort made by unsanitary shops where
labor struggles for a horrible existence and makes stuff for "bargain stores." These suits we offer today are selected from our own high-grade stocks,
too well known to Portland's dressy women to need the mouthing of self-praise from a store writer. THE SUITS are the very flower of the $15.00 and
$18.00 grades, collected for one final sweeping clearance today. Our buyer leaves Saturday for the New York market to select apparel for Portland women's
Pall "wear. We include dress and walking styles; colors are blue, black, brown and swell novelty mixtures; cheviots, etamines, canvas cloths and heather
mixtures. Handsomely trimmed in taffeta, braid, button or stitched effects; skirts made in gore or flare styles. On sale today in the great second
floor Suit Salons, at a choice for $6.25.

Sweeping Slaughter Prices Right When Summer Makes Her Debut. The Season's Biggest and Best List of Friday Special Bargains!
Ever on the alert to its patrons' interests, a store whoso policy is not for today only, "but for tomorrow and all the fntnre, we can assure yon in all truth that today's values have never "been surpassed, if ever equaled, "by this or5
any other Portland store. 'Tis well to bear in mind these continuous bargain volleys must soon come to an end. Soon the dust and dirt of demolishing, reconstruction and removal of departments consequent upon adding the new
Sixth-street building to our present great store will have come and gone. Storekeeping will resume a regular trend, and values bring their worth. If you'll buy this month of July you'll save a part of the price on anything you pur
chase as change back to your purse. If you'll buy today and from this bountiful bargain board you'll save even more. See the economy chances the Priday sales offer, and, remember,

BARGAINS vs. BUNCOMBE
We read recently a store-megaphone's screed about "Suits at Half Price." It read like an "AnnaFever Way" dream book
or a clown's life in a dog circus. It told of high-class "dreams" in low-cut suits, and actually spoke of "suits as high as $75."
Weill Well! Did you over? "Who'd a thunk it?" It's quite remarkable, when yon think of it, for a "cheap John" store to
carry suits up to $75 in real, actual "value" but then, perhaps the hot-air inflationist hadn't been pricked before he wrote the
bubble and he left the hot air in. "50 to 100 suits a day' ' I Gee whillikins ! We didn't suppose there was a store in Portland
that turned their stock every day! Will wonders ever cease? And these Ponrth of July pinwheels commence to go round to
day. Well, ladies, after, you've seen the "pinwheels" revolve, come over and listen to the bargain cannons roar at the

wanted
No such buying opportunity for millinery Shoppers has ever been granted before by any Port
land store. Not even has this great millinery house ever granted such concessions before to its
patrons. But the time has come for radical measures. The buyer leaves on Sunday for New
York to open the workrooms there and meet the representatives of the foreign millinery houses. The
"powers that be" have warned us out for removal at early date to the new Sixth-street annex
remaining stocks must be sold now regardless of what they bring. Portland women may secure a
new hat for the Ponrth at a ridiculous price today. This is positively the last chance to secure
millinery at these prices. Absolutely the last great sale of the season. When these lots are sold
no more.
