1, RUBBER BOOTS RUBBER COATS 1900. OUR LARGE ASSORTMENT OF CLOTHING, BOOTS, SHOES, HATS and UNDERWEAR is unequalled. We carry by far the largest and most complete stock of Rubber Boots, Rubber Coats and Rubber Goods of every description kept in this city, but we are not over stocked, and our prices are lower than others for the same class of goods. We carry only the standard makes. No cheaj^brands such as are usually kept in small stores. We guarantee every garment sold or money back From the factory to the customer is the way that most of our goods are bought and sold. It is be cause we buy in large quantities, and, therefore, can sell cheaper than others, who must buy in small quantities through the wholesale store that we are the leaders. MACINTOSHES SLICKERS. We have a few Capes and Jackets left, which we are selling as bargains. Call early if you want one. They are the very latest patterns. Our Two Dollar Stiff Hat is the latest and best thing made. The Bailey Ribbed back Rubbers are the best rubbers made. We sell them. We are the leaders in every line we carry, especially Groceries, the largest stock in Tillamook, CAPES & JACKETS. ing Tillamook Mercliants. Tillamook School Report. Prof. B. 0.
