J WWWyWBJ o, Quity Safety in Shopping ' Our daily register of sales shows that more people oecide day by day to do the major part of their shopping at this store. Others may be interested to know the reasons REASONS OF ESPECIAL IMPORTANCE TO EVERYBODY DURING THE CRUSH OF CHRISTMAS SHOPPING. This is the SAFEST and most comfortable store in Portland. We have brought store service to a point nearer perfection than ever at tained before by a Portland store. Our delivery system is the most efficient -r. the west. BUT OF MORE VITAL IMPOR TANCE IS THE SAFETY OF SHOPPERSESPECIALLY THE CHILDREN, during the rush days of holiday buying, now at hand. During the next 23 days preceding Christmas, patrons of this great store will fully appreciate what our expansion has afforded them, especiaUy in SAFETY. The two substantial buildings of the store are divided by solid fire walls. In the event of an alarm of fire, it would be but the work of a single instant to empfv one building into the great fireproof steel and cement annex, press a button and close -the heavy iron fire doors between, and the crowds could laugh the tire fiend, while the mammoth overhead sprinklers that work antbmaticallv, con trolled by heat, would throttle him and choke him out of exist ence in less thsn three, minutes. A fire could not live in these biddings of ours long enough to get a Tstart. The three big passenger elevators transfer 100 people every minute from fourth floor to terra-firma. Staong, wide fire-escapes just inspected surround the buildings on all sides. Great stand pipes with hose all connected are ready for service at a seconds notice and a wejl drilled crew to man them. The entire store is arranged to prevent congestion at any point. We can handle the immense throngs this year without danger, annoyance, or eVen discom fort. Aisles are broad and unclogged by tables at points where most visitors pass as is the custom of some stores for sake of EFFECT. There's easy access and egress to every part of the store. REMEMBER ALL THESE THINGS WHEN YOU ARE DOWN TOWNSHOPPING REMEMBER THE Xmas Book Shops Open A great chain of book storea this year.
