The library, with it's varied as
Sortment of books and it's heavy
mahogany cases, and the sparkling
cut glass Of the old time sideboard
in the dining room, still linger in
the memory of some now living.
The grounds were a dream of
artistic beauty, with their rose
gardens and vine covered summer
houses. There was a fairy-like
grotto, and here and there were
marble tables, which were loaded
with delicious viands when outdoor
festivities were given.
DR.. j. B. Badger was a princely
looking man, and a most skillful
DENTIST. He was courtly in Juan
ner, and genial and humorous in
disposition. He had the tastes Of
an old time gentleman.
Mrs. Badgers maiden name was
Caroline Slaughter, Ia lady Of
French descent and Ofqueenly mien
and patient, warm hearted DISPOSE
ton.
Mrs. Brown is q resident of New
Smyrna, Fla. and is now sOjOurn
ing a while in Atlanta, after hav
ing made a pleasant trip to James
town, Chicago and Nashville.
Mrs. Brown is a worthy repre-
sentative of her distinguished an
cestor, having a captivating per
sonality and a sweet womanly man
ner that reminds one of all that
was so attractive in the women of
the old south.

If what we
say is ture.

It's money in your pocket to
pick your Jewelry needs from
our stock.
We know there are bigger stores
than ours, and bigger stocks, but
they are away in distant cities.
The nearest you can get to them,
except you travel, is to look at
pictures in catalogue.
But permit us to point out that
that is hardly satisfactory
method of buying jewelry.
Even if those big stores do carry
larger stocks than ours, they are
composed of mere duplication.
We've here variety enough to
suit the ordinary buyer, even
though he may be hard to please.
No, there isn't a reason-NoT ONE
why we shouldn't be favored with

Old time residents Of DeKalb

tory brick building, which was so
elegant in its design and construc-
ton that it was called in those
days a mansion. There was uni
Que winding stairway leading tc
the upper stories. The open colon
ial fireplaces, with their immense
brass andirons, gave an air Of
warm hearted hospitality to the
large double parlors, especially
when aided by the light of thu
flashing candelabra.
