19 THE SUISDAY OEBGOSTtAN, PORTLAND, AUGUST 17, 1902. Olds, Wotman & King- fr waa Olds, Woftman & King THE Circus is coming to town this week. We are glad of it, for it is a fine one but we do not need to advertise the circus the mere announcement that it is coming is sufficient to bring the crowds from all the country round. And it is to these people, who are coming in from out of town as well as the town folks, we want to announce that our store con tains the greatest aggregation of desirable goods of all kinds under one roof, of any establishment in the Northwest. All nations are represented in our displays, for our importations are large. Just now we are offering some giant values at dwarf prices. It is as if one of Ringlings elephants had stepped upon our profits and left them flat. This is in order that we may dispose of our Summer stock, and make room for the new Fall goods, which are being dis played as fast as they can be unpacked. So visitors in the city this week can avail themselves of the closing Summer bargains, and at the same time secure the choicest of the new Fall styles and fabrics. For sideshows, we have Delivery and Mail Ureter Liepartmenis that are punctual in delivering goods, and very careful and painstak ing in filling orders. Our specialties are- uniformly fair and courteous treatment to every one under all conditions. Come and examine our goods and make our store your head quarters while you are in town.
