HIS BACHELOR LIFE IS ENDED.
Marriage Of Miss Annie SChimmel-
fennig and D. W. Roach.
Bride and Groom Recipients Of Many
Valuable and Useful Presents.
shivaree by Friends.

The ceremony uniting ID. W.
Roach and Miss Annie Schimmel-
fennig in the holy bonds of matri-
moDy was solemnized last night at
$50 in the presence of a large
number of friends of the couple.
The occasion was carried out with
out the slightest incident to mar
the impressive and important
epoch in the lives of those most
concerned.
Promptly at the appointed hour
and amid the strains of Lohen-
grin's beautiful wedding march,
played by Professor Heitmann's
string orchestra, the groom and
groomsman, J. G. Strow, entered
the front parlor from the veran-
dab and took positions near the
center of the room. The brides
maids, Miss Stewart and Lady
bird Turner, little daughter of F.
J.Turner, came in through an inner
door and stood at the opposite side.
Tie brides mother, and the bride
on the arm of F. J. Turner, fol-
lowed. After a few remarks rela-
tive to the prescribed form in Civ
ing away the bride, the bridal
couple stepped to the center of the
room and were pronounced husband
and wife by Rev. T. d. Garvin &C
cording to the beautiful marriage
service of the Christian church.
The bride was given away by F. J.
Turner.
Congratulations followed, after
which dancing was begun and con-
tinued until late hour. Refresh
ments and a sumptuous repast
were served during the evening.
The home of the brides mother
on Hotel street, near Alakea, was
tastefully decorated with flowers
and green's. Across and around
the front and side verandahs were
hung American and Hawaiian flags.
The parlor, in which the ceremony
was was "ASh
green's around the walls and across
the room. Suspended directly over
the bridal party was a large
bell, composed of a mass of
beautiful and fragrant flowers.
Half of the window just behind
where the couple stood was bank
ed with flowers and ferns, present
ing at once a tasteful and pleasing
effect. Folding doors between the
two front rooms made available
space for the large number of spec
tators.
The bride wore white brocade
silk, orange blossoms and long
tulle veil, and carried large bou-
quet of white and pink carnations.
The groom was dressed in conven-
tional black. The bridesmaids
wore white, and both carried bou-
quets of white and pink carnations.
Mr.. and Mrs. Roach received a
number of valuable and useful
presents. The couple were treated
to a genuine old fashioned chiva-
rec early in the evening.

Ice Water at Meals.

A pitfall for the imprudent dys-
peptic, who has small control over
his other appetite, is drinking too
freely of ice water atmeals. Persons
who eat rapidly Of rich food that is
highly sweetened, spiced and sailed,
and who do not digest at equal speed,
must needs drink to quench an al
most steady thirst arising from these
causes, and that only ice water seems
to satisfy. The self control OF the
average woman is not always equal
to the task of a sensible apportion-
ment of water, but an excellent check
on imprudent drinking will be found
by squeezing the half of a large lem
on into a glass, then filling the glass
but half full from the ice pitcher
and slipping throughout the meal

Three different nations, the Eng

tholomeo Christoforl of Padua dur
ing his stay in Florence some time
about the year 1714.

Reams In the Eye.

sible for the patient himself to dis
cover their existence if they are IN
the front portion of the eye. Small
opaque particles are often found M

BY raising the eyes to the ceiling
then suddenly bringing them down
to the level Of the head, keeping the
gaze fixed upon some point. The face

and if the light is exceedingly bright
should be- in shadow. A little prac-
tice will enable the patient to see q
number of small dark spots, that
appear to be settling down as bits OF
SCOT, float gently downward through
the air. One eye contains what looks
like a wool fiber with white opaque
, beads strung upon it at intervals. In
another are several loops of similar
fiber, some of which seem to be COW

mysteries of nature. There are many

There is an element in the COM
munity-a small one, ! would fain
hone, vet the size Of thing Is no
measure of the disquiet it will pro-
duce, even as one little piping frog
in the meadow will Guido all the
crickets that are chirping In the grass
and all the wbippoorwills that are
singing in the air-there Is an eie.
nent ;n the feminine world that IS
suffering from what I shall venture
to call "andromania," writes the
Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst IN ine
ladies' Home journal. The word Is
not an English one, for the reason
snnpose, that the English language
makers never supposed that we
should need such term. 1t is con-
structed on the same principle as tho
word Anglomania, which means a
passionate aping of everything that
Is English. "Andromania" means
similarly a passionate aping OF every
| thing that is mannish. II Is an az,

with the disease to minimize distlno-
