OUR FASHION DISPLAY 
| Millinery eng and @apments 
Attracts Wide Attention! 
Not only because of the exclusiveness of the styles, but of the fact that here is where you have a big variety 
to choose from. 
In the Millinery Section the new little “Johnny Jones’ ”’ Sailors, a combination of masculine crown and 
decidedly feminine brims are receiving much favorable comment. 
In fact, the greater part of these beautiful cre- 
ations are so entirely different in shape, coloring and trimming, that it is a treat to revel in their loveliness. 
Historically speaking, Fashions are a revival of those of the Empire period. This is noticed in tiny hats, bright 
colors and even plaid effects. 
In the Garment Section, everybody is delighted with the beautiful Suits, Costumes and Waists. 
The vast- 
ness of the assortment is such that a whole afternoon can well be spent here in looking over these gems of the 
tailoring art. 
With the improvements we have made this floor is one of the finest in New England.

WHISPERINGS 
-Moses Blum, a native of Odessa, 
Russia, was a petitioner for naturaliza- 
tion before Judge Milliken in the 
District court at New Bedford one 
day this week. Louis Shuster was a 
witness for Blum, and the judge, 
desirous of learning if Blum had any 
Anarchistic tendencies, asked Shuster: 
“Do you suppose that if Blum was at 
home in Russia he would kill the 
Czar?” 
“T don’ttink he’s got brains enough,”’ 
was the unexpected answer.” 
‘“Then why have you said he would 
make a good citizen?” asked the judge. 
“Well, he pays up his bills well and 
is a good, honest man,” was Shuster’s ~ 
answer. 
Blum was admitted to citizenship.
