They said they were glad we were get ting down to business in the good old way, etc., etc. Well, J. M.

All goods sold under guarantee of purity WHY WE DO THIS TO LET YOU KNOW WE HAVE GROCERIES AND TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT WE HAVE FULLY OPENED THE GENTLEMEN'S TAILOR ING BUSINESS AND DEPARTMENT. When the Failing people began to build this big block we moved into a small shack of a store for a year or more, and we had no room or place to carry our big stock of woolens, so we sold them out in a bunch and only kept the workroom (art for manufacturing. Every day we see dozens of gentlemen our old customers oh the street. It is to let them and all others immediately know that we again have the LARGEST AND MOST COMPLETE STOCK OF WOOL ENS IN THIS CITY. J. M. Acheson never did and never will button-hole people on the street to buy goods of him. He thinks they don't like it and it is a sure thing he don t. This is expensive advertising the most expensive in the world, but the best in the world OUR OLD RELIABLE MOTTO IS STILL IN FORCE ONLY ALL-WOOL GOODS USED. "IT SHALL NOT COST YOU ONE CENT IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED." A Tremendous Stock of Ladies' Elegant Suits Ready-to-Wear A Tremendous Stock of Woolens for Men's Suits That's what you will think perhaps say when vou come in. It is double that of anv concern in Portland that mane mn .. tirA Vi i want w. i li S?.ln5i?J Srant'd- Lmings, tnmmings, etc., will be exhibited to you. No dissatisfaction will be tolerated. Oar motto applies all over. HAVE MADE IT HANDY FOR YOU Gentlemen s Suitings and -Woolens will be displayed this week on the first floor of our main store.
