Once again Cupid-the God of love-
has been among us and with as true an
aim as the tabled Tell, sent his arrows,
joined by the cord of matrimOny, into
the hearts of two of our most popular
young people, viz: Miss Rosie Blower
and Mr.. Alex McColl, who were mar
ried at the home of the BRIDES parents
Tuesday, Dec. 81, at 1:30 p. m.
AS the hour drew near, a large num-
Der of guests assembled in the spacious
parlors to witness the rites and wish
the young people life voyage on a
sea where storms are unknown and q
smiling sun looks down on the voy-
ayers who are indeed atlOat on the
true Pacific. When all was in readi-
ness the organ, under the artistic
touch of Mrs. G.. X. Bedient, pealed
forth Memberships wedding march
while the bridal party moved down
the aisle formed by the assembled
guests to where the impressive cere-
mony of the Episcopal church was
performed by the Rev. w. Cash during
which the bride was given away by her
father. She was very becOmingly at
tired in dress of corn-colOred silk,
the only decoration being q superb
bunch of heliotrope worn on her
breast. The bridesmaid, Miss Carrie
Daley, was dressed in cream cashmere
while the maid of honor, Miss Sadie
Blower, wore dress of pure white.
The trio would have made fair models
for the artist who presented to the
world that famous painting "The
Three Graces."
The groom was dressed in a broad
cloth suit of the latest fashion, which
fitted him to perfection. The grooms-
man was Charles w. Jackson, of Yale.
After congratulations were extended
the bride and groom led the way to
the dining hall where the wedding
feast was spread, consisting of all the
delicacies of The season. After this
the party broke up amid laughter and
tears so near is Joy akin to sorrow.
The young couple took the evening
train for Baden, Ont, where they will
spend brief honey moon and then
return to occupy the house of John H..
Graham. The best wishes of all their
friends go with them. A number from
other places were present and the
gifts to the young couple were many
and costly.-Sanilac (Deckerville) Re-

Some. a very few, of the great

100000 mounts are placed on the
market annually, themselves
manufacture nearly every part
which goes into the construction
of the machine. But the vast

nearly every separate part from
some special source, machining

factory, while a bicycle dealer
stated that 50, 600 would suffice

steady and tremendous demand
for wheels, and the prices at
which they continue to be listed,
the incentive to alaunch into the
business of bicycle.making is
showing its results in the mar.
