' Zt it of great Importance to us to sell good
gloves. Poor gloves never built a good busi
ness. Think bow many women depend on this
Glove Store for right sorts of gloves, and the
: number who do grows greater each year. If
the gloves were not right were not stylish,
good fitting, correct in shade and finish in
short, if the best gloves to be had at their sev
eral prices were not those at Roberts Bros.'

IN NEW SPRINQ MERCHANDISE.
T The store which studies the interests of its customers, striving to see how" much, rather
than how little, can be given' as the equivalent of a certain price, is the one that succeeds
nowadays.' The knowledge that at, such and such a place one can always rely upon qual
ity; that, whatever the price quoted, investigation will probe it as low or lower than in
.any other house ; that if the slightest dissatisfaction arises after purchase, goods may be
'returned; that courtesy is the attitude attending every stage of a shopping tour; that Khow
. ing merchandise is considered a favor, whether a sale results or not all these are points
.that, added up,- count immensely in favor of the store that includes them among the car
dinal principles of its policy. - Such a store is bound, to lead, and in every city, whether
.little or big, the store that most closely Jives up to these principles is always foremost.
ROBERTS BROS.' AIMS TO BE THIS STORE FOR PORTLAND. We pride ourselves
. . - v on always giving the BEST VALUES.
