LEE BARNES, Manager. JESSE N. COUCH, Assistant Manager. WHY THE HOTEL ARAGON APPEALS TO PEOPLE OF FASTIDIOUS TASTES This popular hostelry has recently gone oq the European plan exclusively and is receiving tho finishing touches of artistic decorations and new furnishings in volving an expenditure of several thousand dollars. The former American dining room will be used in the future as a convention hall and for banquets and large • dinner parties, of which the management now makes a specialty. The cafe will be transformed into a thing of beauty. The decorations havo been assigned to Mr. J. W«_Otto, whose work on the Candler building has attract ed so much attention. The kitchen will be placed in close proximity to the cafe, and this, with a large corps of trained waiters, will insure prompt service. And prompt service means a lot when you are hungry. It is needless to assure those who are familiar with THE ARAGON that everything the market affords will be at your command at reasonable prices. * • New carpets of exquisite design and furniture of the latest pattern lend a special charm to the hundreds of large,, cool rooms, while the hotel itself, located on the highest point of delightful Peachtree, is unrivaled in its situation. It’s the most home-like place in town. Telephone in every room. Courtesy and desire to please are the very keynote of the management.

How could it be otherwise with such gentlemen as Fred H. Hauser, S J. Lawrence and J. J. Joines among* those in charge? In short, the new era preserves all the charm of the old, with many additional attractions and conveniences. EUROPEAN PLAN'. EUROPEAN PLAN.

In the midst of echoes from the biennial of 1906 the next convention already being bullded, saya The Municipal Tribune.

It has been, attended by women, In tellectual, educated, alert and digni fied. It has been presided over by a president and officers gracious and fair In their rulings. The audience was an Inspiration to speakers and thoso who took part upon the program felt this close attention and live Interest The audience recognized the quality of the Intellectual feast spread before them and were loud In words of praise and commendation. The speakers were experts each in his line of work, bringing the beet as a recapitulation of the two years’ work. The place of meeting, the armory*, was a bower of beauty under the spell ful touch of an artist. The rest rooms were Inviting and comfortable. Great pains had been taken during the entire convention to have great bunches of the moccasin flower. Mlnneeott'e chos en blossom, everywhere In evidence. The armory was declared ••officially surrendered" by Captain Kelly for ten days, with a picked company of his men to act as bodyguard.
