MANoHEsTER-ALLEN(

4ne of the prettiest of home weddings
ger seen in Middlebury was thatNaf Miss
MARY ). Allen, niece of Mrs. Dngald
Stewart of this place and daughter of
Mr.. George Allen of New Haven, Conn,
to Mr.. Philip Manchester of Bridge
port, Conn. The ceremony took place at
Mrs. Stewards residence on Tuesday
evening al 80. The parlor was sepa-
rated from the dining room by gates
covered with white flowers and vines.
These were opened to admit the bridal
party by Masters Dugald and BENJAMIN
Stewart. cousins of the bride, who held
ribbons by which they made an aisle
through the center of the room. They
were followed by little Elizabeth Farms
worth, dressed in white and pink, carry
Ing basket of pink flowers. The maid
of honor, who came next, was Miss
Sophy Warner of Albany, n. Y, whose
gown was of blue tafleta silk. She preced-
ed the bride and her father. The groom
and best man, his brother, Mr.. Percival
Manchester, awaited the bride at the end
of the parlOr and the ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. A. W. Dickens. The
ushers were Messrs. Gardner w. Allen
of New Haven, Conn; j. Allen Warner
of Albany, n. Y: George A. Stewart
and John A. Fletcher of Middlebury.
The bride wore white figured satin and
chiffon, tulle veil and carried lilies of
the valley. Her only ornament was a
sunburst of diamonds and pearls. the
gift of the groom.
The house was most artistically deco
ted. In the corner of the parlor where
the bridal party stood was solid mass
of green formed by pOtted plants and
ferns. a wide frieze was made around
the room of snowbalIs and leaves. The
same idea was carried out in the dining
room with locust blossoms, and i'm the
room where the presents were shown
were daisies and grasses. The decora-
lions in the hall were red peonies and
the banisters were covered with ground
pine. In each room the mantels were
banked with flowers and vines. the door
ways and windows being framed in by
ground pine. The orchestra from the
Howard opera house of Burlington was
IN room on the first floor and played
throughout the evening. Quite an elab-
crate supper was furnished by II. y.
Coon of Burlington.
About 20 of the relatives and intimate
friends of the bride were present at the
ceremony, after which large reception
was held. and rarely has Middleburv
society seen a more brilliant gathering.
Among the guests from abroad not al
ready mentioned were Mr.. George Man

TESTIMONIALS.

The DeLaval "Baby" Cream Separa-
tor testimonial letters have OutgrOwn the
possibilities of catalogue and newspaper
printing. The number ON file is nearly
$4,000, and it would take the average
reader year to read them.
These letters of practical experience,
however, are very interesting and in
structive, since they are Illustrative of
what has been the actual experience of
every user of Baby" Separator, and
what must be the experience of every new
user having use for such machine.
They form the most practical sort of an
educ0tion in the general and indisputable
advantages of centrifugal separation.
Therefore, a number of the very newest
of these letters, selected as coming from
representative and widely known dairy
men in different sections, and as covering
all the different branches of dairying and
varying conditions under which separa .
tors are used, have been printed in a sep
