For Clothes and Furnishings
BECAUSE quality in these things means more to a man today than ever before.
And quality has made our men's stores famous. The sooner a man realizes the
unique position of this store in the quality field, the better it will be for him.
And our reputation for value-giving means that quality is not purchased at a sacrifice
hence the immense proportions of our present men's business and an ever-widening
circle of friends. Today is a good time to satisfy yourself on this score.
Consider These Shirts at $1.15
from the standpoint of quality and value. Then consider their new
ness, their desirability of patterns and colorings, their workmanship
and finish. And you will say that here is the best shirt value you or
any man could ask for at the price. The price, by the way, is appre
ciably less than we should mark these shirts to sell for, if we were
guided by present market conditions and other stores' standards. And
this is only one instance of the value-giving for which our Men's
Furnishings Store is famous.

The Same Applies to Our Hats
las to our shirts, as to all our furnishings and clothes for men. Quality

and unequaled purchasing power are the chief causes of this super-excellence
of Meier & Frank merchandise. Our hat supremacy is never in ques
tion. We especially feature today "
Our Wonderful $3 Hats
Same quality as of old and that was admittedly the best at the money.
All the style you can find in soft hats at any price. A Meier & Frank

THREE-CEXT STAMPS MAKE FIRST
APPEARANCE OJf LETTERS.
Less Than 10 Pep Cent of First. Mail
Collections After Increase Are
l" Shr of Postage. Is Estimate.
- The Fortland postoffice and sub-stations
were raided yesterday for 3-cent
Stamps, when the new postal regula
tion requiring Increased letter postage
.went Into effect.
-- There isn't much difference between
the 2-cent stamp, which carried letters
heretofore, and the 3-cent one which is
to carry them during war-times just
" cent and a little matter of coloring.
"The 3-cent stamp, like its displaced
-brother, bears the head of Washington,
but is purple in color.
- Many business houses purchased large
supplies of the 3-cent stamps, which up
to the present have been one of the
"poorest sellers" in the postal depart
ment. Others bought heavily of 1-cent
stamps, in order to use them in con
junction with supplies of 2-cent stamps
already on . hand, and to enhance the
' value of the penny postcard, which now
"requires 2 cents to travel.
The public bought indiscriminately.
of threes, and twos and ones, many ap
pearing to prefer the combination of
the two lesser stamps to the single 3-
cent denomination. Little comment and
no complaint was made at the stamp
windows, and the great majority of
stamp purchasers appeared to be fully
advised regarding the increased post
age. As was expected by- postoffice of
ficials, the first few mail collections
carried a number of letters and post
cards with insufficient postage. Yet
the percentage was not large, and is
estimated to have been less than 10 per
cent.
Letters and other first-class mail, un
der the increased postage regulation,
which are insufficiently stamped will
be returned to the sender. In the
event that the return address is not
given, the matter will be forwarded to
the addressee and postage due will be
collected upon delivery.
For more than a third of a century
the United States has not bad 3-cent
letter postage. For many years prior
to 1S83 3-cent postage was in effect,
but in that year it was discontinued
and the 2-cent letter rate adopted,
from which there has been no depar
ture until yesterday.
