Great Midsummer Sale MEIER & FRANK COMPANY'S lUMMi:.i'i:s M0MV .NOKNIN.i. jim: Great Removal Sale3 A HALF MILLION DOLLAR STOCK JoBe CLOSED OUT . rn r As our new building on Fifth and Morrison struts oprosite the post office is rapidly nearing completion, and a we intend that only new goods shall bo placed upon the shelves in our new quarters, it becomes necessary for us to dispose promptly of our presfont Urge stock, We know that there is but one methyl of inducing people to buy in advance of immediate needs and that is by offering the goods at prices so much below their actual values that purchasers can save money by buying for future use. This method we have resolved to adopt and in order to expedite matters we have determined to resort to no half-way measures, but to reduce prices to such an extent as will warrant buyers in taking advantage of the magnificent opportunities offered. -o$o No Such Values Have Ever Before Been Offered to the People of the Northwest A LLAIL ORDERS FILLED AT REMOVAL SALE PRICES T). tv.vnt I-un. till.-'.i.j!,,,,,; i'r.gti una a":m!l,M, 1V..
