AH the New Fall Goods are Included Without Reservation or Exception! A Sweeping Slaughter! , This Store Has Lost a Rib, But Gained a Life Partner ! Have you noted, from the inside of the old store, the ragged temporary partition that now separates it from the Sixth street annex? A rough looking partition, hastily built, to protect the old store from the weather, and those who might "break thro and steal" Poor aid store I Like Adam, a rib has been taken away that a life partner might be given to it and where that rib came out you will soon be passing thro', from one building to the other, the two forming Portland's foremost best store. Just now things do look a bit shabby that's a fact. But outward appearances count but little. In house clearing time nobody cares for the looks of things while the work goes on. The ragged looking partition, like an apron or a pair of overalls, simply protects the goods on the other side. The big store, rearranged, is still doing its usual every day work. In these times of upset we are not thinking so much of how we look, but we are doing double thinking to keep up the store service, and taking double precautions against all risks in the building we occupy and the one in course of erection, now nearing com pletion. Everything is being rigidly inspected and when the building is finished 'twill be the safest and easiest in which to shop in America. The work has been slow, but step by step the Pencoyd steel has walked to its place by the help of the steady eyes and hands of the master 'bridge builders and their strong handed and cool, clear brained helpers. All honor to such men as build so solidly. . . a Visitors in town are invited to come and see this Portland's one and only all steel, fireproof building. '. 'mm?.

Second Tha artistic taste and Indi viduality of our organisation Is shown In correcting styles shown US by manufacturers. transferring such models into distinctive dresses, such styles being controlled by us and not to be seen elsewhere. Third We constantly show replicas of Imported models after famous foreign designers at a fraction of the cost of originals. Thus It is we offer reproductions of London, Paris and Berlin styles almost as soon as the origin als are imported. Fourth The power of our peerless buying organisation enables as to secure all this additional style in our garments and to sell them as low or at a lower price than the ordinary are sold at tha "cheap" stores of no standing in the faahlon world. Fifth Our policy enables us to show more novelties and new styles because we sell out our stocks on the average of ones a month, keeping a constant stream of newer styles going and coming dally. Thus It is that Olds, Wortman a King patrons are always sura to see the very latest at this store.
