VOTE FOR
i. S. JOHNSON
For
Judge of the Superior Courts
of the
Albany Circuit
His platform is to reduce
the cost of the Courts to the
minimum, and to cut out as
far as is possible all time-kill
ing tactics used by some to
consume the time of the Court
and make the running of the
Court-a burden to the taxpay
ers. If elected he will stand
by this policy.

THE “FAMOUS
Autumn Millinery Openin
MAY WE HAVE THE HONOR OF YOUR PRESENCE
THURS. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY SEPT. 14th, 15th, 16ih|
With beautiful, Gay Art-loving Paris—(for Centuries the home of creative stvle-art) facing possible destruction—we consider THE FAMOUS very fortuna
in being able to show you the LAST creations from such famous Paris Milliners.
Adaptions of Paris Models made of French materials are also here at moderate prioes. Exquisite models from the leading New York and Baltimore Desig
ers, Chic Styles from our own Milliner likewise lend their beauties to the occasion.
Women are going to like the New Millinery. Like it better we venture, than in many seasons—There is a Why—Styles are what one could call easy,
the large shape is not becoming, why there is the tinest Turban one ever saw, and again there is the Tricorne that is neither large nor small, but stands in th
happy grounds of medium size. Perhaps not every Millinery store will be able to show such a diversity of styles.
Watch This Store. Better-Than-Ever, Service This Fall
We shall caory the message to Garcia this fall, or in the language of the day, deliver the goods. It takes no Prophetic eye to see that, now the new stock
are tilling up the store. Sure of our ground that smart styles, beautiful Fabrics, useful and serviceable articles, all worth the money, have a legitimate plawj
the requiranents of a city of Bainbridge’s population. We have gone at the gathering of Fall Merchandise with a fine spirit, and with a determination that woul
not be denied.
Things are right at The Famous, Watch you shall see who Will Serve You Best
