NINE. NOTAH F. WILSON,
Our MiIIiner and Hair Goods Manu.
facturer Has a Fall Opening.

Among our business enterprises, in
st. Paul, there are few, if any, that
are more entitled to especial COM
mendation than the Millinery and Hair
Goods Manufacturing Co., conducted
by &c. F. and N. F. Wilson," 483 West
University Avenue.
Nine. Wilson has for several years
conducted the best millinery Parlor"
in the city and; recently, in connec-
ton with her husband, has organized
the Wilson Hair Manufacturing Co.
Wholesale and RetaiD and the sue
cess of the enterprise has been phe-
nominal. They deal in everything in
connection with human hair goods,
with Creole hair goods speciality.
j, According to announcement Nine.
Wilson had Grand Fall Millinery
Opening on last Saturday from 800
A. M. to 11:00 p. M. A large assert
ment of up-to-the-minute creations in
millinery was artistically arranged
and assembled and were on display
during the day, and in the evening,
from 800 to HOO o'clock, there was
a display of ladies' head wear demon
strated on living models that was
positively dazzling, the ladies wearing
costumes to accord with the hats
worn. And that there was as gener-
GUS a display Of female pulchritude
as there was of the modiste and mil
liner the following named models will
attest, viz.:~ Mrs. David Hall, Mrs.
w. G. Hood, Mrs. Eileen Martin, Mrs
T. Clark, Mrs. T.. r.. Morgan, Mrs.
J. H. Brown, Miss 4 Georgia Miller
Miss Virginia Tibbs, Miss Dorothy Nc
Bride, Miss Charlotte Gillard, and last,
but by no means least, Nine. Notah
Wilson.
+, The models gracefully meandered
through the four connecting rooms
the exposures of all the. eyes of the
large crowd of ladies and gentlemen
that packed the parlors. This was the
first time that such an exhibition of
lovely women, lovely gowns and love-
ly hats had been shown in St. Paul
and the innovation was a decided sue
cess from every viewpoint.
During the evening punch was
served to the more than two hundred
persons who were present. sM.>
A pleasing feature was the cosmo-
.politan character of the opening as
Nine. Wilson counts among her Gus
toners all classes and nationalities
and all were represented. It was also
pleasing to note that there were rep
resentatives from some of the large
wholesale millinery houses present.
The opening" was an unqualified
success. -sf sgs3 (. .s.zz$strz,-e -.

A PLEASANT OCCASION.
Was the Birthday Party Of Mrs. Sarah
A. Dover.

y Honor thy father and thy mother
that thy days may be long, is a biblical
injunction that is pretty generally
followed, especially when ones par.
ents are what they should be.
Mrs. Richard H. Anderson, 912
Gaultier, is one who honors her
mother and so when the 72nd ami.
versary of her birthday was approach.
ing she proceeded to invite few
friends to properly celebrate the oc.
casion.
I Those who were invited were moth
ing loathe to second the laudable de-
sire of Mrs. Anderson as all of them
held Mrs. Dover in the highest. es.
TEEN.
| Then Mesdames J. @. Adams and
j. w. Milton conceived the idea OF
getting up a small token as evidence
OF their good will.
| So on last Saturday evening these
, friends gathered at the home of Mrs
Anderson with whom her mother re.
sides and proceeded to make merry
! The house had been decorated for
the occasion with flowers, etc., and

beautiful cake holding a number OF
little candles that properly combined

McCracken presided at the dining
table and Mrs. w. J. Arnold of Anoka
! at the punch bowl. j..
Mrs. Dover received number OF
! appropriate presents from her chill.
dren and others, but the surprise fea
ture of the occasion was the presen.
tation of the purse of silver by Mrs
]. @. Adams, who in rendering the
same said.
| Mrs. Sarah A. Dover-'Sallie in our
alley" if you will pardon the familiar
ity. We, who are gathered here in
your home, have come to express, if
only in feeble way, our friendship
and esteem for one who has been
among us and of us for 80 years. A
life time in itself. But we are here
especially to help you celebrate the
72nd anniversary of your advent in
this beautiful world, which has con
stantly been made more beautiful be-
cause of you being in it. ,....:. ?
| The allotted span of life is set at
three score years and ten, but the
! fact that you have exceeded that linn.
it by couple of years, is a complete
refutation of the old saying. ''The
good die young" for no one in our
city is more entitled to the highest
need of praise that can be bestowed
upon, Goods last and best gift to
man She's good woman"

name, and who are here tonight, vii
