THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING. JULY 26, 1001 ,F -n a (lt -SsXr &&'.ttJS& wiWiffl ? SITU 13! PAY ffETttV. Indeed and It's No Picnic the Big Price Boys Are Having This Year! Really, we didn't start out to clean them up so quickly and so completely as we have done. We thought only of giving the public furniture at reasonable prices, and had no idea that sb many people would be convinced of THE TRUTH OF OUR'GENUINE VERY LOW NO-RENT BARGAIN PRICES. We knew the public had been fooled so much on fake advertising that many peo ple would read our ads and say, "Oh, hot air!" but we overestimated the number of skeptics. Of course, we knew that if the people only took the trouble to investigate our prices it would be "all off" with the Big Price Boys, but we had no idea so many would do so. Why, even July, when trade is supposed to be dull, will be one of the biggest months we've had in fact, so large that we have had to increase our force of salesmen. But, say do you realize what a storm we have precipitated? Have you any idea of the extent of the anger we have aroused in the Big Price Boys? Do you know how sore they are on us? However, if it angers the Big Price Boys to have us furnish your home at reasonable prices, if it enrages them to have us stand between the public and a -"holdup," IF IT MAKES THEM "B Oil, OVER" WHEN w"POINTOUT THAT A 50 PER CENT REDUCTION ON A SPECIAL. SALE CONVICTS THEM OF EINGREGU LARLY AT 100 PER CENT PROFIT, then we say that we are to be congratulated for foe enemies we have made, and the Big Price Boys can "take that and smoke it in their old cob pipes." No other new firm ever before jumped in and in six months established one of the very largest businesses in the city; but, of course, no other firm was ever in the position to give the extraordinarily low prices we have given, because Others Pay Rent, We Collect Rent on Half Our Own Building -Who Can Sell the Cheapest? Now for a general clean up of samples and odd pieces before our August inventory, nd to make room for our big fall stock large purchases made by our Mr. S. H. Morgan who has just returned from the eastern market During this Clean Up Sale you will secure some rare bargains, but no 50 per cent reductions, mind you, because we never mark goods high enough to permit such cuts. If we did we could not honestly advertise as a low priced firm. However, excepting Phonographs, Records and Shades i . a , , .1 i i . .I i .

Rockers Reduce From 15 to 25 Per Cent Last week we put on sale 187 varieties of rockers. We sold a large number, but still have a very large selection and can please you at small cost Rockers require a lot cjf room, and we must re duce our stock to about 57 varieties. This Rocker A specimen bargain; we won't mention its value; we want to see how many people recognize a big bargain. It is solid oak, wooden seat and rodded; is an extra strong rocker. The Big Price Boys would call it a $6 rocker, but it isn't we'll be frank; we never ask $6 for it, although others do. How ever, we will sell only one to each person, and deliver it at our con venience. Do You Know Rocker Values?

To make a better range than the ACORN is impossible. Acorn Ranges Bake Well! To nse every possible unit of heat, to carry the smoke out freely with an ordinary chimney, to distribute the heat evenly over all the oven surfaces, the ACORN Sheet Flue is carefully propor tioned to the oven and to the fire box. Heavy asbestos board lines the flues, and by preventing waste of heat through the walls of the range concentrates the strength of the fire on the oven, so . that, besides baking excellently, Acorn Ranges Bake Quickly? The ACORN Hot-Blast Fire Box insures the greatest possible fuel economy and is found exclusively in ACORN Steel and Cast Ranges. No fuel is wasted in fire box. No heat is wasf ed in flues. ACORNS are the great fuel-savers. In three years there are 1,095 days. An ACORN Range, saving 5 cents' worth of fuel a day.
