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.
