That is a bargain, is it not? Along the same line you can get a self-filling, self - cleaning, fountain pen from The Observer Book Store.for only <1 50 . the kind we have sold plenty of at <2.25, and which has given satisfac tion to all users. , We have several dozen but not a bi« lot, to sell at these low prices. The cause is that the factory sent us a doublo order and they made the price lower to us rather than pay charges and take the goods back. Now don’t wait until these pens are all sold, and then try to make us sorry that you didn’t come sooner. w ' 7T :l<T h e O b eerA rer B o o k » to r e , M oro, » : O ne 8-room house; tw elve m in u te c a r rid e from P o rtla n d postoffice; five c e n t fare; price $4600, J. 0 .
