New Goods

White Goods
We have the greatest
collection of white goods
ever shown in Newnan,
and that is saying a great
deal, for our white goods
stock has always been
complete. But this sea
son the line is not only
larger, but the values are
the best we have ever
been able to give for the
money. We cannot quote
styles and prices here; it
would make too long a
list. Suffice it to say that
we are prepared to show
the handsomest line of
white goods you ever
looked at, and cheaper
in price than you ever
bought them before.
Laces
The dainty patterns in
French val. are coming
back into favor, and are
replacing to some extent
the round-thread vals.
We are showing a hun
dred or more new sets in
val. laces.
In linen lace, real and
imitation Cluny, Irish
crochet and baby Irish
laces, we show a full as
sortment.
Colored laces for trim
ming, and plain and fan
cy nets for waists, etc.,
in large variety.
Embroideries
If you want the kind
of embroidery that will
wear with the material,
you’ll find it here. Our
embroideries come from
the best maker of em
broideries in the world.
Every piece, no matter
how cheap, is made on
good material, and is
perfectly finished. The
new patterns are lovely,
and will appeal to your
taste. Match sets in
cambric, nainsook and
swiss, in a bewildering
assortment of patterns.
Dress Linens
Just a word about dress
linens, white or colored.
You know, of course,
they are more stylish
than ever. V, r hat will
surprise you is that we
are selling them cheaper
than ever before. Our
assortment of white and
colored linens is so va
ried that we cannot quote
prices; but an examina
tion of our stock will con
vince you that we have
gome extraordinary val
ues in the line.

Each month the publishers of Every
body’s Magazine offer prizes to news
dealers handling their publication for
the best and most striking window dis
play calling attention to the magazine.
The prize for the best display is $15,
and for second and third 310 each. Mr.
P. G. Stanley, of the Holt & Cates Co.,
is competing for a prize this month,
and the display which he has arranged
is both unique and attractive. It is in
the shape of a log cabin, built of small
[line logs, with old-fashioned stick-and-
dirt chimney, and has all the character
istics of the typical backwoods cabin.
An old black mammy is sunning her
self in front of the cabin, and in the
yard are a number of chickens and the
inevitable ’possum dog. A placard on
the roof of the cabin contains these
words—” ‘Everybody’s’ in everybody's
house, even to the log cabin.” If
Mr. Stanley doesn’t get a prize, he cer
tainly is entitled to honorable men
tion.
An unusual and remarkable sight
was witnessed at the opening sale of

fer to the special sale inaugurated by

mous,” two of Atlanta’s leading
clothing and dry goods merchants.
They advertised extensively, and over
one thousand people gathered in
front of their store (he morning of
the opening. People came to Newnan
who had never been here before. They
took advantage of the firm’s offer to
pay their fare on condition that they
trade $20 worth. Wo understand they
refunded fares to customers from every
town within a radius of 35 miles. One
old lady from below Franklin called
lor her ferriage. This firm is making
some alterations and improvements in
repository, sufficiently large to accom
modate one hundred vehicles.
