CraPma, WELL WOTRH EXA. iG The Largest and Best Stock Ever Brought ‘ to Itasca County August Jobnson’s business is a fair index of the growth of Grand Rapids. Since coming here abouteight or nine years ago his patronage has steadily increased until today it is many times greater than when he began. At that time competition was strong from large tailoring houses of St. Paul, Minneapvlis, Duluth and other cities, but during the past year none of these appeared as solicitors for business in Itasca county. Men in the lumber carps as well as in-Grand Rapids and other villages of the coun- ty have learned that August Jobn- son’s prices are as low as the lowest; that ne isa first-class-tailor in every respect; that his guarantee is good and that heinyariably gives satisfac- tion. They have learned, too, that 1% frequently bappens that a suit does not fit when made by outside con- cerns, and that there is no remedy except to go to another tailor and pay to have it made over. When you do business with Johnson it’s differ- ent. He guarantees his work, fit and goods and he is right here atall times to make the guarantee good in every instance. That’s the reason his busi- ness is constantly on the increase. Last week the Herald~Review | mentioned that Mr. Johnson had just } Peceived a new stock of the latest and nist stylish patterns in summer suit- ings. Since then new consignments have been added to his already large stock, and at the present time he has the finest display of goods for men’s clothes ever brotght to northern Minnesota, outside the larger cities. These goods are well worth examin- ing. Just at this season business in the tailoring line is not so rushing as earlier io the spring, and orders can be taken and clothes turned out with- out delay. Mr. Johason has a few suits already made up on orders received, that have not been called for. Ou these suits payments were made when the orders were taken. These will be sold at a liberal discount from the original price, and the purchaser given the benetit of what has already been paid. Here is a good opportun- ity te geta good suit very cheap. Jellison To Open His Campaign. On Friday evening, May 23, at Vil- lage hall m Grand Rapids, Hon. f. L, Jellison of Cohasset will formally open the Republican primary con- gressional campaign of the Eighth dis- trict. Mr. Jellison will discuss the po- htcal issues of the day in his usual aggressive, eloquent aid forceful man- ner. He is a gentleman of very pro- nounced ideas as to the .needs and re- quirements of this district, and while the Herald-Review does not agree with Inm politically, we predict that his discourse wll be very interesting to people of all brands of politics, and withal profoundly logical Additiona1Local i f t i Remember the band dance Tues- day evening next at Village hall. Beginning next Tuesday evening the band will give public concerts. » E. N. Remer made a business trip to Iowa this week.
