Millinery in its highest state of artistic embel lishmentmillinery that meets the requirements of fashion's most critical and exacting demands is always associated with the Olds, Wortman & King store. Our manager and head trimmer have been "do- Z ing" New York since I New Tears for the purpose of getting all the new- est millinery ideas. They've hobnobbed with creators from Paris and makers from London. They've adapted the best ideas from them all, and J worked 'em out in our own New York City work J rooms, where a force of skilled milliners have been J conjuring and creating for us and for you for the past two months dainty conceptions portraying the most artistic foreign conceits of true millinery merit and the leading and authoritative American ideas in fetching head-dress, and now they're home J ready to vrelcome you this week with the results J of their longiabors among the.dictators of fashion, J acd the showings are more beautiful and charming than over. Small shapes predominate. Turbans have gained in popularity and have a louder call than ever, but lines differ much from former ones. Z The'Polo Turban" leads a small,perfectly round J shape, very jaunty and a hot favorite among the t smart dressers in New York. The tendency in trimming this season is toward the back. Fronts are very shprt, sides high and crowns low. Weare sole distributors for Portland as ever of the famous English Bendel Hats and Connolly Turbans J in walking styles. Great showings of tbe Gage and Phipps and Atchison Hats read. An immense showing Monday of tailored hats in newest styles at $1.93, $2.49 $2.95 and $3.49 ........,,y,,.,.,t, This is "Homing Week."

The merchandise in point of style and beauty, quality and consequent dependability transcends the best in town. You may prove this statement to yourself go at it any way you please. This store has the largest and most expert buying force on the Coast, and maintains a permanent New York office the year round, under charge of two of the most competent buyers in America-Mr. U. G. Shipley and Mr. Prank Mennig. Twelve store buyers go regularly twice to four times a year, each in the interest of his or her own branch of this great combined business, to the New York headquarters and from there branch out, covering every style center of authoritative prominence on the American Continent, and meeting the representatives, of every recognized manufacturer and producer of importance in Europe or Asia. Our alphabet of success in this business begins with ACTION. If others wonder at our extraordinary achievements, let it be known that here everything is done with method, backed by expert knowledge of the centers of production, and. of market conditions in each place at all times. And we "go to them." Thus our mastery in storekeeping over all competitors -our exclusive control locally of every best grade of merchandise the world produces, and our ability to undersell as we do-all other Portland stores, at all times. While minor stores send a solitary straggler or two to market, we send a picked squad of twelve. Ito wonder results are greater here than at other stores; little wonder that goods have a newer, brighter and superior style at this store. No wonder prices are lower on equal qualities. And the buyers are home with their magnificent stocks. The store stands at ' 'Attention! ' HavtTa look along the lines-Welcome Attractions in Wardrobe Sa!ons,2d El.
