Don’t make the mistake one of our lady friends did the other day. She stood looking into our suit window, where mostly the long coat styles are shown at pres- ent, and finally she turned to her lady friend and said: ‘‘Oh dear! They have’nt anything but those horrid long coats and everything must be awfully expensive,” and started to walk away. Her friend said: “Why don’t you look inside and see the suits?” ‘‘It’s no use,” was the reply, ‘‘they are too swell for me here, this season. They are not showing anything to fit my purse.” But her friend insisted that they go in and it took less than 15 minutes to sell her a suit, for she found just what she wanted at $20.00, and it was just the color, style and price she had made up her mind to get. Be sure and ask for what you want here and most every time we will have it for you. From $ 1,00 to $25.00 : fair at Medford. NEW SUiTS, Long ahd Short Coat Styles.

(Special Correspondence.) The Portland Country Club and Live stock Association begins its initial meeting today. The exhibit of livestock surpasses that shown at the Lewis and Clark Exposition, and the races will be the best ever witnessed here. The great mile track just completed at a cost of $27,000, the immense bams and steel frame ampitheatre, give the grounds and surroundings an appear ance of solidity and permanence. The track is considered the best drained that has been built in this part of the United States. There is a steam rail road line into the grounds, in addition to a splendidly equipped electric line- in fact, the latter has been tested and found capable of handling forty-five cars at one time. Together these lines will relieve the grounds of seven thou sand people within the first fifteen minutes after a meeting. No event has taken place In the last year that will be more beneficial to the Pacific Northwest than the visit of the delegates in attendance upon the Na tional convention of the American As sociation of Traveling P a sse n g e r Agents. These men have traveled through Washington, spent three days thoroughly investigating Seattle, where they held their conviction, visited in teresting points on the Sound; then they came to Portland, where they spent a day before making the Colum bia River trip.
