NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

We certainly Ihave caught
it this season on blazers.
If they had been recon-
mended on every fashion
plate as indispensable to this
seasons dress they couldn't
have been more of rage.
They have linked destinies
for the summer with fancy
shirts,
For getting both, our store
has become headquarters.
One reason--we have the
most blazers, we believe, of
anybody.
We don't ask stiff prices;
and our blazers are better.
In Shifts we have flannel
and Madras i'm Stripes and
pIaidS.
What needs perhaps more
immediate telling: we have
none of the kinds that are
not satisfactory.
To those who like Belts,
we have belts.

PORTLAND. JUNE 81, 1889.
T<H E continual
i cheapening of prices
on merchandise of
all kinds has naturally
caused a lowering of the
standards of quality; this
has brought things once
considered Injuries within
the reach of everybody,
and in that way has been
a benefit.
But the constant drop
ping of prices and depreci-
alton of values has nearly
driven the better grades of
certain lines of goods out
of the market, while the
demand for them has not
entirely ceased.
Silk Gloves for example.
Time was when $3.50
was the regular price for a
Silk Glove and they were
bought by the few, now
they are to be had for soc.
and everybody wears them,
but there is quite as much
difference in the qualities
as in the prices.
Many complaints about
the inferiority of the COM
mon flimsy Silk Gloves
that are sold in all stores
hereabouts, and repeated
calls from our wholesale
and retail trade for a good,
heavy fine Glove, a Glove
of the old sort at the old
price, if need be, has in
duced us to import a line
of heavy German frame
Gloves, made from pure
silk, thoroughly finished,
with long fingers and well
proportional hands, in a
variety of the best liked
colors,
We shall sell them at
$I.oo.
Another line; extra
heavy and long, in blacks
only, at $3.50. OF course
we have the cheap kinds,
too.
We put on sale this
morning a lot of black silk
Mitts at $50, the regular
soc. sort.
Fabric Gloves for men.
