THE SAN FRANCISCO' CALL, SUNDAY, APRIL 15, 1906. - né® Just a year ago today we " opened the doors of our Market, 1l Powell and Ellis street store and presented to the public of San Fran- cisco the most magnificent and thoroughly equipped retail estab- lishment west of Chicago. Prior to the opening of this establishment very high-class merchandise was always sold at almost prohibitive prices. The day we opened this store the public of San Francisco were enabled to buy the very finest wearing apparel at prices heretofore unheard of, giving those of a moderate income an opportunity to secure styles and qualities heretofore confined to the rich and favored few. The tremendous response, the record-breaking business, the enthusiastic applause that has greeted this store from its inception have been beyond our fondest dreams. To say that we thank you all, is putting it mildly. Your generous patronage stimulates us and spurs us on to greater achievements, and no stone will be left unturned to make this store your store and your every Visit hére one of delight and satisfaction. We will celebrate this birthday week by a prodigious bargain sale. Each department has contributed oné special. You will see that it is the most sought after and popular article of the department. - We have cut the price—totally ignoring cost or profit. The treat is on us. Our offering is a birthday bargain gift. We positively limit these specials for one week. *6 Walking Skirts $3.75 | Gray En eeds—mannish mixtures.
