Brenham, Texas, November 14.-At 10
o'clock this morning a trooping throng OF
rustic lads and lassies came dashing into
the city on horseback from their rural
haunts adjacent, followed by numerous
carriages, buggies and other vehicles Their
destination was the Catholic church and
the unusual gayety coupled with the holi-
day appearance of their costumes suggest
ed something out of the usual order there.
The occasion was the celebration of the
nuptial rites between Mr.. Peter Garka and
Miss Josephine Wroblesky.
The groom came in town on horseback,
leading the bridal procession, with his best
man, and at the head OF the carriage pro-
cession the first one contained the bride,
her parents and first bridesmaids. OF which
there were twelve in all; the groomsmen
all being on horseback.
II was the double ring ceremony as
though it was typical OF the fact that it
would never end, but to describe all the
intricacies of that ceremony not word
CT which The Post man could understand
as 1t was In Polish, is hopeless task, in
which we fear that we would not make
ourselves Ineligible. Suffice IL to say that
1t was an elaborate affair and after the
ceremony was finally concluded Father
Pridal and the newly married couple with
the attendants, left separately, as they
uime; the groom on horseback, the bride In
her fathers carriage.
Two children were christened at the
same church. After the usual service.

cultural Society, consisting of the grounds
and all the buildings, including the grand
stand which cost $4,000.
The sale was made tc, satisfy mortgage
of $500 held by the Camden Safe De-
post and Trust Company, who became
the purchasers at the sum of $40, 500.
After the sale of the real estate, the
personal property was offered. 1t con-
sisted of tables, chairs. benches, dishes,
and many other articles that were used
in conducting the fair. These goods were
covered by chattel mortgage held by
those who gave notes to aid the. Society
when in financial straits.
When the time came to offer this prop
erty there was a hurried consultation on
the part of some of those interested, and
it was decided that the best mode of pro
cedure would be to sell in one lot rather
than to allow a separation which would
scatter the goods all over.
Consequently they were put up as I
whole and sold on the bid Of Edward B
Jones, who gave 5000 for them, and an
nounced that they we're purchased for thu
noteholders.

The American Business School is In a
certain sense unique Its courses are the
result of demands made by the business
community and when due allowances are
made for the difference of environment, it
will be found that our best American
Commercial Schools compare favorably
with the best European Commercial
Schools. Competent observers, who have
visited the German Commercial School at
Leipzig, pronounced the business course
of Peirce School of Philadelphia in many
respects superior to that of the European
school. The shorthand department of
PIERCE School is the largest shorthand
school in the State, its faculty is composed
of certiicated experienced stenographers,
it's typewriting equipment is probably the
largest in the world, and instruction in
this art is systematically gwen by a skill
ed specialist. Its English course is thor
oughly practical.

They claim that the new system takes in
to consideration only mans physical
qualifications, and takes no account of his
morals When the keepers picked their
own men under the double supervision of
the District Superintendent and the Dis
trict Inspector-the first a civil appointee
and the second an officer of the United

chance to go sstray in either the physical
or moral qualifications of the crews.

claimed, is not qualified by nerve and ex
perience to man lifeboat in sea that
may mean death.

According to a celebrated anatomist
there are upwards of 5. 900. 900 little glands
in the human stomach. These glands
pour out the digestive juices which dis
solve or digest the food. Indigestion is
want of juice, weakness of glands, need OF
help to restore the health of these organs
The best and most natural help is that
given by Shaker Digestive Cordial. Nat
ural, because il supplies the materials
needed by the glands to prepare the d.
gestlye juices. Because it strengthens
and invigorates the glands and the stom-
ach, until they are able to do their work
alone. Shaker Digestive Cordial cures
indigestion certainly and permanently.
1t does so by natural means, and therein
lies the secret of its wonderful and un-
varied success
At druggists, price 10 cents to $l.OO per
bottle.
