being aware of Mrs. Brandeis. In a town of ten thousand,
where every one was a personality, from Hen Cody, the
drayman, in blue overalls (magically transformed on Sunday
mornings into a suave black-broadcloth usher at the
Congregational Church), to A. J. Dawes, who owned the
waterworks before the city bought it. Mrs. Brandeis was a
super-personality. Winnebago did not know it. Winnebago,
buying its dolls, and china, and Battenberg braid and
tinware and toys of Mrs. Brandeis, of Brandeis' Bazaar,
realized vaguely that here was some one different. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
