Today's Greatest Suit Sale. WOMEN'S NEW $28.50 SUITS ?8.75. 2 to 5 P. M. Second-Floor-Salons. We've rather gotten our cheap imi-. tators "over a barrel," so to speak, on the Suit question. Their repre sentative is running around New York whining of how his firm is "stuck" on a lot of old Suits which he admits to manufacturers will take "40 years to dispose of." That's the result of too much gilt and "gewgaw," and sweatshop workmanship. Portland women are too level headed and possess too much sense to be taken in by such "stuff ' and won't buy it. Result Our "shadows" can't get rid of their musty, tenement-house-made trash and are therefore unable to buy liberally of the new Fall styles. How directly opposite is the situa tion here. Stocks were never so low. Our Miss Bernard is sending us new things daily and you'll find some of them hero among the sale Suits today. New Suits, bought under-price from makers whose season is over late, smart Mid- Summer Suits, some at less than a third of their worth. A word .of them. All new this season's latest styles from leading makers, mater ials include cheviots, tweeds, can vas cloths and zibelines, in black, blue, brown and novelty mixtures; in walking and dress-style lengths, jackets, etons and blouse designs, fancy braid and every new trim ming effect $18.00 to $28.50 values, 2 to 5 P..
