Another of the BIG opportunities offered to the whole northwest by the MEIER & FRANK Furni ture Galleries. An opportunity not equaled in twelve months. New ivory enameled bedroom sets for one or a dozen bedrooms all to match all at the same big economy. And it is economies on necessities which really lower living expenses. It was not easy to get these sets, as anyone familiar with the furniture market can guess. Fur niture factories throughout the whole country are so rushed that they cannot fill their orders. Lumber is scarce. Mirrors are. almost unobtainable at any price. Yet these very, real difficulties have been surmounted and a full hundred bedroom sets are subject to your order at seventy-four dollars less than the conservative market rate. Decorated With Roses "City of Roses bedroom set" is the name our decorator has given it. The roses are in relief and especially realistic in design. They are a modification of the wreaths that Queen Marie Antoinette of France loved so well the roses so often-used in Louis XVI furniture. The lovely ivory tones blend beautifully with cretonne curtains wicker chairs and rag rugs. Ivory sets like these make a room look sunshiny and cheery. A hotel furnished with, ivory enamel would be so uncommonly attractive that its fame would spread far and wide. The Dresser at $39 is extra large, measuring' fully 42 inches wide. It has a generous 24x30-inch mirror even though mirrors are as scarce as "hen's teeth." It has five 'drawers,, the three lower ones being particularly capacious. Some homes may not require the additional drawer space of the chiffonier, in which case the three pieces remaining in the set would be $101.50. Or perhaps the desk and chair might be sub stituted for the chiffonier, bringing' the total up to $130.75 for five pieces. The Chiffonier at $29.50 Many inexpensive chiffoniers are only 24x30 inches wide. This one is fully 36 inches. There are three top drawers another unusuality and three larger lower drawers. The Toilet Table at $33 has three convenient drawers for milady's creams, powders and perfumes. The table measures 36 inches wide. The triple mirrors are full length and there is nothing like a triple mirror to let one see oneself as one really is. The Bed at $29.50 is full double-bed size. It is gracefully shaped with turned posts and has charming rose decorations in relief. Extraor dinarily inexpensive at $29.50. The four pieces as listed above are $131, but any pieca or combination of pieces can be purchased separately or in conjunction. We reserve the right to deliver at our convenience. Five Extra Matching Pieces Include The chiffonier at $36 with a 16x20-inch mirror. The particularly attractive desk at $10..r0. The chair, rocker and toilet table bench at $0.7."), $11.50 and $8.50, respectively with cane scats and ivory enam eled frames which can Ijc used to augment the sol if desired. At 9:30 o'Clock Tomorrow the Sale Starts Find this "City of Roses bedroom sot" in the bedroom section straight ahead from the center elevators. We know hundreds of homes in Oregon, Washington and Cali fornia are just waiting for something as good looking as these at such a low price.

Why Not Have a Plain Colored Chenille Rug Which Will Fit Your Room Perfectly? Mrs. Jones came into the Rug Store last week. You could see by the very way she walked that she did not expect to get what she wanted. A salesman in quired her wishes ' and she re sponded with the negative in quiry: "I don't suppose you have a rug in stock which will fit my living room?" "What size is ft, madam?" 18x28 feet." "But we have, madam, said the clerk. What margin would you like to leave, 18 or 36 inches? These plain colored chenille rugs come in any wanted shade and in all widths without seams," and walking over to some immense rolls on the floor the clerk turned one' over' and unrolled a beautiful,' velvety, deep pile of carpeting. The result was that Mrs. Jones ordered these plain che nille rugs for both her living and dining rooms because she found the right color in exactly the right size. This chenille carpeting -comes at four prices, $12.50, $16.50, $17.50 and $19.50 a square yard. Both American and Scotch weaves. Perhaps it is only just to add that these smart plain rugs are unusually reasonable in price compared with any thab are figured. . .'-.. 8 Grocery Specials Peaches, Del Monte, halves or slices.
