ABUSE OF A PRIVILEGE.

A few weeks ago a hint was given
through this column, that order must be
kept in the reading-room during the
matron's brief absences. That hint has
not been needed, and the time has come
that stronger action must be taken.
Two of the printed rules of the room
tibet are conspicuously displayed, are now
for the first time in the three years
history of the reading room daily broken.
These rules are that reading matter must
not be wllfully destroyed, and that the
matron in charge whether the regular
matron or not) has power to enforce all
rules.
The reading groom is a private enter
prise, kept open by the efforts Of one So
ciety and its friends, and is for the use of
the public, without money and without
price; it would be with the greatest re-
greet that the room should be discon-
tinued, but better no reading room at all
than one in which disorder reigns.
No pains will be spared to discover the
offenders, and deal with them summarily.
1t is earnestly hoped that this warning
will be sufficient and the offenders, and
the board of managers OF the room will
be spared farther unpleasantness.
The annual meeting and election of
officers OF the Hand-in Hand circle, which
was postponed from last November, Will
be held at the next regular meeting, next
Monday evening, Jan. 8.
All members of the Hand-in Hand
circle are again reminded of the ten-cent
sociable at the residence of Mrs. j. F.
Knowlton this Wednesday, evening
at 730.

WEDDING BELLS.
MULLAN-WALSH.


The interesting event of the last day of
the year in Ellsworth was the wedding of
Miss Elizabeth, daughter of Patrick Null
Ian, to Edmond j. Walsh. The ceremony
was performed at st. Joseph's church on
Tuesday, December 81, at 23O p. M, Rev.
FIR. O'Brien officiating
Responses to the wedding invitations
were very general, and long before the
hour set for the ceremony the church, in
Guiding the gallery, was filled with friends
and acquaintance of the bride and
groom, both of whom are deservedly pop
ular.
While the guests were assembling the
organ was played at intervals by Miss
Nancy NJ. Dutton, and the waiting was
by no means tedious.
AT the appointed hour the church bell
announced the approach of the bridal
party, and after brief halt in the vesti-
bule, the doors were swung open and, to
the stirring strains Of Wagners Lo-
hengrin march, the party approached the
altar.
The ushers were Charles II. Drummey
and T. F. Mahoney. They conducted the
groom and his best man, Frank M. Gay
nor, to the right of the altar, and re-
Miss Mary A. Gaynor, and the brides
maids, Misses Annie F. Mullan and
Carrie E. Harrington.
Following them came the bride, escort ed
by her father. She was dressed in white
landsdowne cut en- trdine, with pearl
trimmings, and tulle bridal veil. She
carried a bouquet of beautiful bridal
roses, and made most charming ap-
pearance.
The maid of honor and bridesmaids
were dressed in pink henrietta trimmed
with emerald green velvet.
At the altar the groom took the bride
by the hand and together they stepped
within the rail, where the ceremony was
performed. All the while from the organ
came in soft, sweet tones Gounod's Ave
Maria" After the nuptial knot was tied
according to the ritual of the Catholic
church, FIR. O'Brien made brief but per-
tinent address.
Az ne close OF tine marriage ceremony
the bridal party repaired to the vestry of
the church to sign the marriage register
Returning, the party retired from the
church to the strains of Mendelssohn's
wedding march, the bride and groom
leading.
A reception to relatives and immed late
friends followed at the home of the
brides parents on Main street. The
happy couple left on the 5.35 train for &
short wedding tour, carrying with then
the best wishes for a long and happy
welded life of host of friends.
On their return they will make Ellis
worth their home. Mr.. Walsh has rented
the building on Main street, recently oc-
cupied by A. II. Norris, and will about
March |, open boot and shoe store.
The wedding presents were numerous
and beautiful, and attest in most sub
stantial manner the high esteem in which
the newly married couple are held.

A TALK WITH MRS. RORER.

Personally this pIiestess of hyeiepic
living is an admirable example of her
doctrines and teachings. OF rounded
figure. not overplump, clear eyes, and
with a complexion a girl of sixteen might
envy, Mrs Rorer does not look as if she
could be the mother of two sons, one of
whom has finish d college, and the other
is Harvard sophomore. Her life is a
busy and exacting one, yet her splendid
health never fails. The most interest
ing part of it all is that she grew to early
womanhood with weak and ailing
frame. Her elder son was for the first
years of his life a sickly child, and it
was not till she became convinced that
the cause and remedy for her own and
her boys condition were within her con-
troll that any betterment resulted.
To exercise, regularly and properly
practiced, and hygienic food, she attiib-
utes all of the veal that she has evolved
from this woe OF ill health. Her sons
are both athletes, and have responded
so perfectly to her system as to be her
very best advertisement.
Il have made a great study of bring
ing up boys" she says. IL don't know
that | should understand the care of
girls. l never had daughter, and l
was the only girl in my own family. 1
consider athletics most valuable thing
for boys, mentally and morally, as well
as physically. 1t affords an outlet for
the animal nature with which all men
seem to be born. Boys must have some
thing to talk about, and if they are in
terested in athletics they will never
be at loss for topic"
1t is the advice of this very good au-
thority that only two meals day should
be eaten. Luncheon should be given
up, notably by brainworkers, who can
