About Saturday Early j
Closing !
As announced some days ago, this store will close its doors
during Angnst, on Saturdays at 1 P. M. We would begin the
movement earlier, hut we deem it hut just to our hundreds of thou
sands of patrons that due notice should he given them of this im
portant move toward hetterment in storekeeping. We "believe in
pleasing the masses. Some windy stores make a great blow about
keeping open these hot evenings to "accommodate the masses."
That's a sop, filled to the heart with greed, avarice and abnormal
appetite for gain, even though that gain is wrung in drops of sweat
from the bodies of faithful, hard-working employes. The public
don't like the sop that's why the masses "congregate" at THIS
store. The Saturday early closing movement is bound to succeed.
It discommodes no one. The Saturday half-holiday among fac
tories and offices has become an -established fact, there's no ret
rograding in this movement. The sooner antiquated stores, that
don't know the Civil War is over, clamber into the "band wagon"
the better for all. The Saturday half-holiday among stores is
bound to come, and come to Portland. Storekeepers who contend
that our city is that far behind the times of other cities that adopt-'
ed the Saturday early closing movement long ago are the ' 'knock-
ers" that keep a city from growing and insult tthe intelligence of.
the populace that surrounds them. This store will close every Sat
urday during August at 1 P .M. It closes now every evening
SATURDAY INCLTJDED-at 6 P. M. "The laborer is worthy
of his Saturday evenings."

The values we are offering every "business day this Summer are sensational indeed, unmatchahle and without precedent, as they are.. "Webster defines "Sensational" as "an impression
made upon the mind through the medium of the senses." A hired "ad-writer" flings the term from the doors of an antiquated bazaar towards this "Old Homestead Store." It hits
and it fits. This house is creating "an impression upon the minds' of every intelligent "buyer within shopping distance of Portland, and creating it through the common sense they pos
sess. The impression 'is a double-barreled one that hits the marks of economy and authoritative style, both at once. The impression is doing us good, increasing our business by leaps
and bounds, doubling, then redoubling our sales. Intelligent people have learned the fact that best merchandise is here, newest styles are here and lowest prices are here; three links
to the chain that binds the people to Portland's leading, bst, soon to be largest, retail store. This morning's tale is of the grist of bargains brought to this mill for today's "HOURLY
SALES." Kindly remember this store closes at 6 P. Mlveibusiness day or the year, SATURDAY INPLUDED.
