FIVE DAYS, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
Groceries Vree we tell you and repeat. We will make it o plain that the most obtuse can understand what we mean,
GROCERIES FREE. One Half the Price You Pay for a Gentleman's Suit, Pants or Overcoat to Order, or a Ladies'
Suit to Order, or a Ladies' Suit Ready-to-Wear, or a Ladies' Skirt to Order or Ready-to-Wear ONE HALF. The
Price You Pay We Say for Any of These Garments will be Delivered to You in Groceries FREE, and Notice, You Can
PACK ALL THE GROCERIES HOME WITH YOU
I guess you all can understand that. Even the Grocery Trust, who have been making such frantic efforts to put us out of business, can get this through their heads and out of their mouth without
misstating us. By the way, some interesting developments are under way regarding the Grocery Trust. "Watch and see if the City Council hedges. J. M. A. before long will open some ad stuff
that won't read two ways. Here is the home builder's the frugal housewife's or woman's chance the workingman's clerk's or of ice man's chance.
SEE HOW IT WORKS
Order a Gentlemen's Suit, any price, say you pay $30.00, you get . $15.00 . worth of GROCERIES
FREE. Or say you order a $40.00 or $50.00 Suit, you get one-half the amount in GROCERIES
FREE. Order a pair of Pants, $8.00, $10.00, $15.00, or any price, you get one-half in GROCERIES
FREE. You can afford to wear banker's clothing.
YOU CAN JUST AS WELL WEAR THE
400 SET DUDS AS NOT
For we have the goods hundreds of them. All you have to do is to take advantage of this offer.
We will tell you one thing, and it don't mean two things: During our big sale last week dozens of
gentlemen came in who had on garments that J. M. Acheson made or sold them away back in 1902
1903 and 1904, and a number of those people made us blush by the profusion of compliments they
gave us regarding garments they had purchased of us in those way-back years. They said they
were glad we were getting down to business in the good old way, etc. Well, J. M. A. talked just as
straight years ago to them to get their business as he does now to get yours and retain theirs.
LADIES, SEE HERE
If your men don't need anything, you order a Suit made to order, made of our elegant tailor cloth.
J. M. A. absolutely warrants it to never spot, rip, fade, and that it will wear for from five to ten
vears. Say you order a good substantial Suit of this kind. Don't you think it's good economy?
Well, you get HALF IN FREE GROCERIES. Or get one of our elegant ready-to-wear Suits,
Skirts, and HALF IN GROCERIES FREE.
THE PRICES OF ALL GARMENTS AND CLOTH FOR SUITS ARE MARKED IN PLAIN
FIGURES YOU CAN TELL THE PRICE AS WELL AS WE CAN. The offer is a splendid one
for you plain and simple no fudging can be done if we would permit it. When J. M.. Ache
son gives bargains, it means bargains with a vengeance, and can onlv be done by quantity, large
volume selling. Everyone understands that THE METHOD OF THIS HOUSE FROM THIS
ON IS LARGE QUANTITY SELLING if it works us' to death. But work and activity will not
kill anyone, but worry and' inactivity will. .
And the prices on Gentlemen 's Suits or Ladies' Suits, why, look at them! Here is a bunch; we can't get them all in. We hare
hundreds to select from. It's honest advertising when lot numbers and descriptions and -prices are printed in here for you.
You can pick them out; by so doing no double dealing is practiced on you. . We say look at the prices. Do they look as
PRICES; LOOK AT THEM:
though we had spent a lot of time trying to stultify- our fifteen years of good reputation by at this late date boosting the
pricest Don 't they look like popular prices J We challenge your honest opinion as to this. HERE S PR;

YOU CAN SELL
The grocery' half if you want to or have no use for gro
ceries. Say you buy a $40.00 suit, I guess you will have
no trouble in selling to some restaurant or boarding-house
a certified order on ns for $20.00 worth of groceries for
$15.00 or more. Don't be behind. When such deals as
this come to your notice, get in, figure, save your chink
all you ean but get the best to be had.
WHY WE DO THIS ! WHY WE DO THIS !
To let you know we have GROCERIES and to let everyone know that we have again fully opened
the GENTLEMEN'S TAILORING BUSINESS and DEPARTMENT. When the Failing people
began to build this big block we moved into a small shack of a store for a year or more, and we had
no room or place to carry our big stock of "Woolens, so we sold them out in a bunch and only kept
the workroom part for manufacturing. Every day we see dozens of gentlemen our old customers
A TREMENDOUS STOCK OF LADIES' ELEGANT SUITS READY TO WEAR
on the street. It is to let them and all others immediately know that we again have the LARGEST
AND MOST COMPLETE STOCK OF WOOLENS IN THE CITY. J. M. Acheson never did and
never will buttonhole people on the street to buy goods of him. He thinks they don't like it and
it is a sure thing he don't. This is expensive advertising the most expensive in the world, but the
best in the world OUR OLD RELIABLE MOTTO IS STILL IN FORCE ONLY ALL-WOOL
GOODS USED. "IT SHALL NOT COST YOU ONE CENT IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED."
A TREMENDOUS STOCK OF WOOLENS FOR MEN'S SUITS
That's what you will think perhaps say when you come in. It is double that of anv concern in Portland that means you can find what you want we ask you to take nothing for granted. Lin
ings, trimmings, etc:, will be exhibited to you. No dissatisfaction win be tolerated. Our motto applies all over. HAVE MADE IT HANDY FOR YOU Gentlemen's Suitings and Woolens displayed
this week on first floor of our main store. The cutting, fitting and making is on the fifth floor of our building tiie Acheson building. (Sugar and Carnation Creams are excepted from this offer.)
THESE GROCERY PRICES WON'T SKIN YOU, WE GUESS

while a bunch of fellows are trying to figure out how and why we can do so, you get in and get the benefits. We'll tell you something: A raft of pessimists and suckers of trust combinations have been
sitting around for the past ten vears trving to figure out how J. M. A. does these things; they are just where they were ten years ago and we have advanced all the time. You know this is a fact
We don't care what the other fellow does We avoid trouble. SPECIALS FOR TUESDAY ONLY.
