WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.

Monday, December 18th, was the
eleventh anniversary OF the marriage
OF Aid. II. l.. Page and wife, and Mr..
Page and Mrs. DR.. Ferguson, unbe-
known to Mrs. Page, arranged for
little gathering In celebration OF the
same. Mrs. Page acknowledged that
as a surprise it was complete success,
but she rallied to the occasion and
soon succeeded in making everyone
feel at home.
Progressive pedro was INDUCED In
at which Mrs. F.. A. Washburn and j..
G. Wilbur won first prizes, and the
consultations were awarded to Mrs. G..
N. Crippen and f. L. Fales, after
which fine refreshments were served.
1t was also Mr.. Pages birthday but
with his usual good luck he escaped
the OLD time clicking" until after II
o'clock, and then claimed that it was
outlawed. Mrs. Page was presented
with handsome set OF cut glass
tumblers as slight token OF the re-
gard OF those present, after which the
guests departed wishing them many
more happy anniversaries.

A NARROW ESCAPE.

City Clerk Geo. w. Moulton feels
very much like congratulating himself
that the results of little accident up
at his home yesterday were no worse.
He has a couple of youngsters that are
probably as mischievous as the average
of boys at least, and shortly after din
ner yesterday they got hold Of some
matches somewhere. A lace curtain
was thought to be a good subject to ex-
pertinent on. 1t worked better than
they had expected and they began to
try to extinguish it, but only succeeded
in spreading it. Now thoroughly
frightened the older one tried TO hide
in closet, but the younger ran and
told his mamma. Mrs. Moulton finally
put it out but it was no small job as it
had already obtained good start feed
ing upon such inflamable material. IL
she had not been successful the older
boy, Howard, would certainly have
burned to death like rat in that closet
as rescue would have been impossible.
1t was indeed narrow escape.

FRIEDLY-SCULLY.

Who said woman could not keep a
secret? There seems to be one at least
in Bedding that has kept one pretty
we'll. The fact Ben Friedly and Miss
Nellie Scully are married will not oc-
casion much surprise, but that the
wedding took place Nov. Goth in Grand
Rapids does indeed rather take their
friends by surprise. Mr.. Friedly is
connected with the firm of Wilson g.
Friedly and Miss Scully has been res
ident of Belding about four years, her
people living near st. Louis. They
are very popular among their associ-
ates and the BANNER simply voices the
sentiments of all their large circle of
friends in wishing them long and hap
py life together. They commenced
housekeeping Tuesday in a home
which he had ready and furnished in
