widely adopted method of treating chronic and
complicated disorders.
Their reputation rests not on the cheap, trans.
parent platform of purchased testimony. but on

festivities in keeping with the fair
brides social standing and the ele-

by the anxiety of the groom's parents
in Virginia that he should leave this
land of Yellow Jack and return to
them and so, after claiming his bride,
they embarked together, not only upon

sea of life, with it's scenes more seri-

which he keeps this solemn compact
