: PORTLAND'S LARGEST FOREMOST STORE.
POXTLAND'S LARGEST. XOKKKOST STORE.
Twenty-Seventh Annual Clearance Sales Are Now On
ABSOLUTELY EVERY ARTICLE IN THE HOUSE DRASTICALLY REDUCED CONTRACT GOODS ALONE EXCEPTED.
NO MATTER HOW GREAT THE PRESSURE
OP BUSINESS, THIS STORE WILL BE CLOSED AT THE REGULAR HOUR ON SATURDAYS,
N0T ONLY DURING THE MONSTER CLEARANCE SALES, BUT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR!
This is in accordance -with our long-established custom, -which has been adopted by. leading merchants in all the principal cities of the country, an example which Ave have no doubt will be followed in due time by all stores, of the better class. A store that has
been thronged all day should be thoroughly cleansed and ventilated at night. Strict observance at all times of this indispensable, sanitary rule, together with the lofty ceilings and strictly down-to-date methods of ventilation, gives this'store an air of cleanli
ness and brightness that places it ia the front of all Portland stores in a class alone, not only Portland's largest, but her Foremost Store. i
Furthermore, employes who have done afull day's work of such arduous character as is called for these busy days by this great human hive of industry and strenuous shopping, should not be asked to continue their labors into the night;aud ikis unfair
to ask our customers to accept the services of overworked salespeople, who for obvious reasons may be unable to do themselves or their employers full justice, no matter how willing they are.
This Store Closes Today, as Ever, at 6 P. M. Get Your Shopping Thro' by Day light!
A few reminders for last day of the week shopper, with price appendix to sbow how much less you'll pay for things than you expected at the "DIFFERENT STORE."
This last day of the week should be the busiest in

LARGEST AND LEADING- APPAREL STORE WEST OP
MARSHALL FIELD'S OHIO AGO CLOAK HOUSE.
"Were you among the enthusiastic throngs taking advantage of
the extraordinary values the past week? If not, come today
I by all means. The great Clearance Sale is a tremendous suc
cesshow could it be otherwise? Bear in mind that this is not
a sale of job lots or unsuccessful styles, but a pre-inventory
clearance of the very models that have given this store even
greater prestige than ever before in ready-to-don garments.
Though individual lots are small, quantities in most of tho
price groups are large and there are numerous one's and two's
in both Suits and Wraps that are reduced beyond precedent.
We shall be indeed surprised if today is not really the busiest
day of all the week or sale.
