Against the success of these. marvelous Friday economy events. Come? Of course youll comet Forty-six weeks ago
these wondrous weekly bargain events sprung into instant popularity. It was glorious to watch the smiles of satisfaction
that wreathed the faces of our shopers. On every side we heard it remarked, that the values were simply amazing; and
that that smile has broadened feto the "Smile that won't come off." Pennies, nickels, dimes and "two-bit" pieces are
mighty factors in these sales. Every woman in Portland has become interested. Twould be folly indeed to miss one of
these great money saving sales. There's no semblance of profit to us in them; in some cases we positively lose, in others
the makers lose. In ah you gain, Tho prices drop the values soar higher than ever, and' yet there's not an article on
sale that we don't stand back of. Not an article but that is absolutely new and seasonable. But 'tis good merchandising
- for us to hold these bargain events, for it makes friends for the store and friends help us to grow, to expand, until soon we'll
greet you all from three of . the city streets. The new Sixth street annex is nearing completion. Its opening will follow quickly upon the spring openings,
which occur next Monday and Tuesday, all over the store, in every department, but Suits and Millinery will lead, and the second floor will be the theatre
where public attention will center. But- about tomorrow not all the good things are advertised here, but youll find hundreds all thro' the store, easily located
