AN AMAZING ARRAY OF VALUES !N THE AUGUST SALE OF

When the advertising touches Linens it's a signal for thrifty housewives to bestir themselves. Sets 'em all to overhauling the linen" closets and making notes
of deficiencies. Our prices for the ever-needed linens are never approached by competing stores on parallel values. If this good old "Different Store" had
achieved nothing else, the reputation won by its linen values would have made it rare and important. Below we print a few examples of incomparable values in
seasonable needs both linens for the house and dainty wash goods for personal wear these August days, and for evening and afternoon frocks later on, when in
door functions fill the leisure hours of dressy femininity.. Every item represents economy, and there are scores of other values not mentioned here, fully as worthy.

Clean-Cut Savings on Women's
Matchless Undermusiins
. Annex Second Floor. J
The pilot who holds the tiller and guides this
great mercantile clipper safely through the
rapids and over the whirlpools that would engulf
many a ship less ably held in hand, delights in
trying out the men who compose the crew that mans the vessel. 'Tis.a good
practice," too, for it keeps every man alert to his duty and the public
who tak6 passage are safer. The other morning we found on our desk this
question: "What would be the result if this man would- devote the same
energy to selling good merchandise that, he does to selling trash"! And
we set the "think machine" going. The man referred to is a maker of
"cheap "undermusiins for women. We answered: "HE WOULD MAKE
A FAILURE." "Why?" asked the "Admiral." Because ho has devoted
his whole business life to creating and selling a class of goods without merit
of any .sort He has descended the bottomless pit of "cheapness" on a pole
greased with the sweat of unskilled tenement-house workers and polished
with the trcrms of disease. He simply couldn't succeed in making garments
of QUALITY, for he doesn't know the meaning of such a word. And yet, you are offered his
product right here in Portland today on the "merit" (!) of "cheapness." WE WON'T SELL
SUCH STUFF OR HAVE IT IN THIS STORE AT ANY PRICE. But we do offer you tomor
row undermusiins of CHARACTER at least a third better than any other store in the city is
offering. If we can't prove this statement upon comparison we'll gladly withdraw all onr
claims, and acknowledge defeat Here is underwear from America's best makers at the prico
of the cheap imitations shown elsewhere or less. Don't miss the AUGUST SALE OF UN
DERMUSLINS -TOMORROW. -

We had intended to advertise these hats for
the two closing days of last week, but
through an oversight they were only told of

more day but only one Monday. Here's
the prettiest picture of fascinatingly beautiful
hats for young misses and children we've ever
shown in the salons. "There are pokes, broad
brim shapes, and such a variety as defies de
scription. Sweet Marguerites, Lilies of the
Valley, Forget-jre-Xots and a host of garden
beauties vie with each other for favor in the
trimming effects, combined with soft, pretty
chiffons. The values range from $2.50 to $3.50
and for tomorrow we shall offer them at a
choice for an EVEN DOLLAR-51.00.
