A Summer Sale That's RrviTlirwY
Backed by Marvelous LHJI yuillo.
ANYBODY with money can buy some goods and hold a "Sale" and wonder why big business
fails to come as it conies to this thorough store. Think it over that no "World's Fair, even,
ever showed such a collection of splendid merchandise, of such varied sort, gathered from the far
thermost parts of the producing world, as one may see any day at this great modern merchandise
and fashion exhibit, that THEOLDS, WORTMAN & KING SUMMER SALES are vastly more than
mere schemes for selling, and that if one would see merchandise produced by the master artisans of
the world one must come to this store. This week has furnished the high-water marks in July sell
ing for this store, which means the greatest volume of sales ever enjoyed by any Portland retail
house. There's reason for this. Back of it all has been months of planning and confidence in the
public's appreciation, which justified us in larger than usual buying. Therefore, better prices. No
need to argue for the RELIABILITY OF OLDS, WORTMAN & KING merchandise that is proven,
proven bj years of test. And if it were still unproved, the safeguarding guarantee, that is part of
every transaction here, would still hold one safe. THE STORE IS OAREFUL. Poorly made mer
chandise doesn't creep into the truly great stores nowadays. Manufacturers have long since learned
that RELIABILITY is the foundation stone of continuous success. There is poor merchandise still
yes, it goes to careless stores whose chief aim is to show something "big for the money." The bar
gains listed below for today are even bigger than they look in print. That's why OUR ADVER
TISING PAYS.

Many of these garmentsare splendidly adaptable for Fall wear. Two very
