A store full of hot air at the top, and junk and sweat-shop trash of ' ancient origin bulging- out at the bottom, is liable to generate spon taneous combustion, especially if engineered and crewed by a band of eicitables. Such stores sometimes "go off in the air" through the papers, emitting a vaporous effusion that disseminates among the clouds, to the harm of no one. Itrs a good thing for such stores to have an escape valve, else they might "blow up and bust" and hurt Bomebody. Such a store exists and their "escape valve" lets off his sultry wind regularly against the good, thick, substantial walls of this RELIABLE "Old Homestead" Store. The hot vapor strikes our walls and is blocked, rises into thin air and passes off. Hurts no one, and relieves the barny, overstocked "hot-air establishment." Pardon the digression, but it leads up to this GREATEST PETTICOAT SALE HT PORTLAND FOR PRIDAY. Our elevators have brought up to the second floor daily through the Summer Clearance Sales from 2500 to 2800 people. We've Petticoats for all who come today.
