ZB1 The "Different SW' FIFTH AND WASHINGTON STS. The "Style Stote" WffltftiSmm
A Daring Scene of Dazzling, Immaculate White!
SURPASSING IN SCOPE AND SPLENpOR ALL FORMER SPRING SHOWINGS. Monday opens, on out second floor in the White annex-our regular MAY SALE OF DAINTY UNDERMUSLINS AND LINGERIE OF
FRENCHIEST PARISIAN ACCENT planned broader and more Jiberally than any of its predecessors. It's a sale not only greater in scope than any and all contemporaneous efforts, but also more forceful in its economies. It is a mercantile
movement that should engross the attention of every woman interested in undermuslins of worthiness and beauty, as it comprises the very best products of the best makers produced under the most sanitary conditions and surroundings by
skilled women who are earnestly interested in their work and whose remuneration is most liberal. Not a garment in our vast array is skimped, not one but what's immaculately fresh not one that's not up to the Olds, Wortman & King
starfdard. More in behalf of this splendid opening May sale and showing we cannot say. We print a catalogue of items but they really stand for naught. Eyes must SEE in order to really understand and appreciate all the points of betterr
ness and superiority of the undermuslins shown by this "Different Store at all times. See the beautiful showing in our five Washington street and corner windows then take the elevator to the grand exposition on second floor annex.

Portland is one of the most forehanded cities in the country.
People have either got the wealth that planning brings, or the inde
pendence that lies along the path. They can buy when they please
and they please to buy when they can get the longest use of
things. Other cities "wait for weather" and the "smartest" manu
facturing tailor of Women's Ready-toDon attire in New York City
complained the other day to our resident buyer, that he was getting
despondent, waiting for New York trade to "wake-up so in des

A Sott of "REMNANT" Sale, You Know
EVERYTHING is relative; a man's salary may be good in
a town, while the same salary wouldn't reach if he lived in a
city. A remnant" to us may be a skirt-length to a customer;
while the customer's "remnant" left in the sewing room is a rag,
and the manufacturer's "remnant" is apt to be a full case or two
of goods say 2500 to 5000 yards. Unless one realizes these dif
ferences, one is apt to be skeptical and apt to lose money by ne
glecting to come for the bargains we tell of.
You may call this what you please but tomorrow starts the
most radical, absolute CUT-PRICE CLEARANCE ol new and
good CURTAINS you ever saw or heard tell of before. You
know when we say "Bargain," it's a real, Simon pure article;
no fakes and no trash here at any price, but worthy goods that
have been told to go at one-third and one-half off regular value.
We have in this lot t06 styles and 452 pairs of Lace Curtains, including besides Nottinghams,
Brussels, Irish Point, Arabian Renaissance, Motif fany, Cluny,. Ruffled Net and Colored Novelty ef
fects ends of odd lines, traveler's samples, and some slightly mussed in showing but all perfect. We
