DIAMONDS
Correctly Classified
The great care given tn the selection of onr diamonds
makes this the one house where any one. however unfamiliar
with diamond values, may purchase without any possible ele
ment of risk.
Before we presume to show our gems they are subjected
to the closest possible examination by our diamond expert, and
the weight, grade and price is marked on each tag in plain
figures.
Our mountings, which are next in importance, are se
lected with the same care and attention. with but three
thoughts in mind durability, insuring against loss of the
stones; beauty of construction, insuring the greatest value of
the gems as ornaments, and price, which must be as low as
possible, consistent with the best.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND XEWB.SATURDAY. JUNE 29. 1912.
Season for June
Brides Comes
to Close
The season for June brides lias come
to a close the record this year falling
behind that a year ago tin pvipt of
numbers. However, there have been
quite a number of interesting mar
riages. and the social world has been
kept active with the pre-nuptial par
ties. The last of the June brides was
Miss Mildred Fort, whose marriage to
Mr. Bertram Norris took place this
week. Tiie young couple are now in
Florida on their honeymoon. The ma
jority of the bridal couples have re
turned to the city, and have taken their
places with the young married con
tingent. which is a large and delight
ful set in Atlanta society.
One of the pretty church weddings
of the month was that of Miss Georgia
Watts and Mr. Louis Merkel. The
bride, who has been identified with mu
sical circles for several years, was hon
ored with a beautiful choral service at
her marriage which was celebrated at
St. Lukes church.
• The wedding of Miss Jennie Lowry to
Mr. Robert Warwick and that of Miss
Rosa Milledge to Mr. Emory Patillo
were especially attractive as to de
tails and decorations. Both of these
young couples have returned from theit
bridal trips.
Several brides have gone to other
places to reside since their marriage.
Among these are Mrs. Henry Earth
man. of Clearwater Fla., formerly Miss
Eliza Candler, and Mrs. William Otis
Ham. of Jackson. Ga., who was Miss
Margaret Welch.
Two of the most brilliant weddings
of the season claimed College Park
girls as the brides. These were the
Wickersham-fciti/iings and the Brew
ster-Richai dson nuptials. Miss Ethel
Wickersham was the pretty bride at
the former ceremony, the young' couple
going on a delightful trip in the private
ear of the bride's father, in the mar
riage of Miss Manelie Brewster and
Mr. Edward Richardson a most cordial
interest centered. Both young people
were reared from childhood In College
Park, and their families have been inti
mate friends for many years. Their
marriage was a beautiful affair, and
attended by a large assemblage of
friends.
A few of the Atlanta bridal parties
have chosen other months for their
weddings, one of these being Mr. and
Mrs. Winship Nunnally, who were mar
ried in May. July does not appear to
be a favorite, as few weddings are
scheduled ahead In this city. However,
a wedding wherein Atlanta furnishes
the bridegroom will be an event in New
Orleans orr July 9, when Mr. Lester
Rich marries Miss Jonita Irene Gold
bach. The young couple will go abroad
for their wedding trip.

is the satisfaction with which our
customers receive their freshly

The secret, of our successful work
is—close attention to every de
tail of washing and ironing your
clothes, and the use of only soap,
water and plain common sense.
We make a specialty of our col
lar. cuff and shirt work. No raw
edges, no cracked folds, no torn
spots.
Give us one week's wash for
trial. We'll prove it.

Before you put Aw
up your win- wT

better, and if
yon do this
ever.v year they will last 500
per eent longer.
Paint is your great rejuve
nator, your great preserver of
ail things wood or iron. With-'
in reasonable limits the more
you paint the more you save,
providing, of course, that you
use good paints. Poor paint
is money thrown away twice—
the money you pay for the
paint and the cost of putting
it on.
Paigt wisely.
