and asking that he be appointed.
Judge Maddox has been a member of
the Whitfield bar for many years, and
has served one term as solicitor gen
eral.

FREED OF SHOOTING
AT YOUNG WIDOW
Proving a strong alibi before Recorder

in Bellwood avenue, freed himself from
the suspicion of having fired five pistols
shots through a window at .Mrs. Grace

catur street, who is said to have com
manded him to cease his attentions to her
The shots were fired front the darkness
outside while Mrs Russell was preparing
supper. None of the bullets hit the mark
but Mrs Russell was frightened greatly'
as broken bits of glass and plastering
rained all about her She caught a
glimpse of the assassin as he fled, bu;
the only description she'could furnlsli was
that he was a “tall man wearing a white
hat.”
Johnson is a tali man and is said to
have been wearing a white bat. As his
attentions were said to have been spurned
by the young widow, suspicion was di
rected to him. He was taken it.to cus
tody and arraigned today in police court,

Chamberlin=Johnson Dußose Company
ATLANTA NEW YORK PARIS
The W. B. Corset at SI.OO to $3.00
It Has More Than Its Price To Recommend It
I he Corset Department is a very important department
ol this store. It recognizes the wide variance of women’s
likes and dislikes in this essential of her dress, and recogniz
ing this variance it proceeds to do all that
and corset-experience can do to measure up to all the re
quirements of different women.
It has the best of the higher priced corsets.
It has the best of the less expensive corsets so that the
hundreds of women who wish to pay from SI.OO to $3.00 for
their corsets are assured the same careful attention that guides
the whole department.
And to these hundreds of women who do pay from SI.OO
to $3.00 for their corsets let us say, W. B. Corsets.
We say this because we know W. B. Corsets, because we
know how they are made and what goes into them. Once
you do, you will doubtless wear a W. B.
We know that the W. B. people go to Paris for their
models and then adapt them to better suit the American
woman.
So the woman that wears a W. B. is assured of a corset
of unusual grace and suppleness.
As to their making—-we know no corset at the same
price that is more carefully made, none that better materials
are used in.
So the woman that wears a W. B. is assured a corset that
is properly bound, that will not break, that will not lose its
shape.
As to this stock of W. B. Corsets-—knowing them to be
what they are, we could hardly do otherwise than carry at all
times a complete line.
Right now we have—
Four Models at SI.OO
Three Models at $1.50
Four Models at $2.00
One Model at $2.50
Three Models at $3.00
So the woman who would wear a W. B. need have no
fear of finding a model to her liking. It is here—whether her
choice be one with the extremely low bust and long skirt or
one with medium high bust and short skirt.
The W. B. Reduced =For the Woman of
Stout Figure
A corset that science has helped to build. It is of strong
coutil, is cut low under the arms, has elastic gores and is rein
forced over the abdomen and hips—an ideal corset for the
stout figure. In models at $3.00 and $3.50.
In The Bazaar
The Bazaar is a unique little shop in Atlanta. It has
in its stocks the practical and the ornamental wares that are
usually found only in a specialty shop, yet in its prices and
its methods, it enjoys all the economies that the Chamber!in-
Johnson-Dußose Co. organization brings to each and every
of its departments—which when our buyers enter the great
importing houses of the Eastern markets means much—means
much for you.
The stocks in the Bazaar, always interesting, are at their
height now—and now that the living in doors has begun in
earnest and that so many homes must have new china, new
glassware, new decorative pieces for that corner and that nook,
the Bazaar’s stocks offer you every advantage that good taste
could give.
We direct your attention—if we may mention the two
in the same breath—to a showing of nickel-plated coffee
percolators—with alcohol, gas or electric burners and to a
display on the landing as you enter of old fashion brass
andirons.
