EagletOn-Badger

A beautiful home wedding took
place at 9:30 last evening at the
home of the brides mother, Mrs.
Badger, on Ocklawaha avenue,
when DR.. Samuel Potts Eagleton
and Miss Mary Bee Badger were
joined in the holy bonds of we'd
lock by Rev. Charles M. Gray OF
Grace Episcopal church.
Only the relatives of the con-
tracing parties were present at
the ceremony.
The bride, who is always
beautiful, was at her best last
night, robed in a lovely evening
dress of white organdy and flow
ers, while the proud and hand
some groom was arrayed in
faultless evening dress.
The rooms were beautifully
decorated with a wealth of rare
and beautiful Fl ,wers and green
cry.
The brides brother, Axson
Badger, gave her away. Hal
Eagleton, cousin of the groom,
was to have been best man, but
was unfortunately detained out
"f the city.
After the ceremony the young
couple were congratulated most
heartily by their relatives and
friends, when the bridal party
were seated to a bounteous re-
treshment board, where a mag
nlficent spread of dainty vlands
were served.
The presents were numerous
and costly and came from many
parts of the country.
At 1870 the happy couple left
for Jacksonville via the r. G &
P. Ry., where they will spend a
week at the Windsor. While in
Jacksonville the doctor will read
two original papers before the
State Medical Society.
The young couple are too we'll
known in Ocala to need a lengthy
sketch here: The fair bride has
grown to womanhood in our city,
beloved by all who know her for
her many beautiful traits of char
acter, while every body is the
friend Of genial Dr.. Elgleton,
one of the foremost young eye
specialists of this state, who has
been with us permanently for the
past two years, and by his skill
has built up a good practice, and
his name and fame are already
bong circulated throughout the
state.
Their many friends wish DIR.
and Mrs. E.gleton a long and
prosperous married life.

The most remarkable thing about
this is that almost every necessity for
which We are obliged in our case to
employ more or less complicated me-
chanical contrivances is provided for
by the physical structure of the ants.
Ants clean themselves both before
and after sleep, and also after eating.

another all over, limb by limb. the

herself to the enjoyment of the opera

They are great hunters. attacking
snakes, lizards. rats. mice. centipedes
and beetles.
They even kill the great African
python. 1t is said that if a python has
killed an animal, he dare not gorge
himself with it until he has made a
wide circuit and satisfied himself that
there are no driver ants in the neigh
borhood. If, however. he meets with
any, he abandons his prey to them,

hungry they actually milk the aph-

sides of the abdomen with their an

at once sucked up by the ants.
They shut them up in cowhouses and
use them for days.
Ants act as soldiers in a very real
way, and it is no stretch of the Ian

tween ants of the same species. and
raids of one species upon the nests of
another, sometimes to carry off the
larvae and pupae as food "a modified
form of cannibalism), and sometimes
to supply their own nests with slaves.
Certain ants are agricultural, and
allow ant rice to grow up in a circle
round their nests, while every other
plant is carefully cut down as fast
as it appears. They SOW the crop reg
ularly tend it, and harvest it. When
the seeds fall they are carried into the
nest, and the stubble is cleared away.
When the grain in the nests gets damp
ed by rain these ants carry it out into
the open to dry.

ANTIQUE OAK THAT is OLD.
Beautiful Results With Pieces Buried Un-
der Chicago 1000 Years Ago.

Beautiful Results With Pieces Buried Un-
der Chicago 1000 Years Ago.
White oak logs that have been bur-
led under the site of Chicago for 1000
years have just been put to use. Prof.
Ossan Guthrie, the Chicago geologist,
| who has studied the local strata and
helped to unearth the remnants of
some of these prehistoric trees, has
just come into possession of two toilet
| brushes made from this ancient oak,
that have surprised the manufacture
er Of imitation antique" woods by
the wonderful color and polish of
which the genuine antique oak is cap
able. No precious woods that have
ever been imported into Chicago are
so maryelously beautiful as these
specimens with which Prof Guthrie
has just been presented.
Most of these prehistoric logs have
been resurrected from the 7,000-year-
old graves to be divided up among the
museums and universities of the coun-
try. Walnut, willow, beech and most
of the modern native woods lave been
dug up under these glacial deposits
and alluvium of seventy centuries, but
the white oak, the same tree evidently
that flourishes in the parks to-day, has
been preserved best of all.
Some frightful cyclone appears to
have bent and laid low the trees at
first The iron fibre is bent and twist
ed in nearly all of them in one partic-
ular spot in the trunk, and it is evil
dent that this was the cause that first
buried the giant forests under the
sands and alluvium. Some of these
trunks have been followed by Prof.
Guthrie in the excavations for streets
and houses for many feet. Que trunk
in Sheffield avenue, was unearthed for
seventy feet.
Evidently this forest was the first
growth after the glacial period. 1t lies
close to the glacial clay, under the al
luvial drift, at a general depth of four
teen feet. The cyclone apparently laid
the forest low, and the sand and drift
were blown up from the LAKE and COW
cred it. The water formed an alright
capsule about the trunk, aud kept it
from decaying.
OF late years, however, the surface
sewers have drained the water away
from the trunks, and the bark and out
err layers of wood have gone to decay.
The iron fibre Of the inner wood Is
still intact in most of them, however.
The wood from which Prof. Guthrie's
souvenirs are made was dug up near
the corner of Calumet avenue and
Thirty-ninth street, where many Of the
trunks are being chopped away in
sewer eXcavatlng.
No imitation antique wood has ever
attained the singular beauty of this
old oak. 1t Is dark, almost a greenlsh
black, the result of hundreds of years
discoloration by the surrounding wa
ter. The polish which it has attained
is unlike anything ever seen by wood
importers. The fibre of the wood was
found almost as tough as fine wire in
working it up.

Table Talk.

OF course, you know all about it,
but don't forget when the time comes
to take your hard boiled eggs to the
picnic resting in bed OF crisp lettuce
leaves. First you have taken out the
yolks of the eggs, powdered them fine,
and mixed them with a little mayon-
naise dressing, just enough to moisten
the mixture, and then Replace it and
put the egg together. Or, if you do
not care for your eggs in this form,
make sandwiches of them, and chop.
ping the egg or cutting it in small
pieces with Il silver knife, lay two or
three sprays of watcrcress in each
sandwich. They are refreshing.
Very delicate sweet butter sand
witches are delicious, but they are bet

If a woman wants to have beautiful
hair she should take care of her scalp.
Unless it is kept perfectly clean and
IN a healthy condition the hair will not
grow. In summer her hair should be
washed often if it is at all inclined
to be oily.
The hair in a healthy scalp grows
at least eight or ten inches a year. 1t
grows faster in summer than in win
ter, and it will stretch in wet weather
and shrink in dry weather, which ac-
counts for artificially curled hair COM
ing out of curl in the rain or moist air.
When using curling irons one should
supply the follicles with extra nourish-
ment in the way of a briliantine to
make up for what the heat abstracts.
The following recipe is non-greasy
and good;
Lavender water ...............1 OF.
GlYcerlne ...................1 OF.
Clarified honey .................2 OF.
Rectilied spirit OF.
First mix the honey and glycerine to-
gether, then add the lavender water
or eau-de- cologne, and last of all the
spirits
This second recipe is intended to give
a more or less glossy appearance to
the hair, as well as to strengthen it.
Castor oil ..................2 drms
Rectified spirits ................5 OF.
Altar of rose to perfume.
Tincture of cochineal .....2 drms
The best way to use this is to put a
few drops in the palm of the hand
and rub it over the bristles of a hair
brush.
All the greasy preparations tend to
darken the hair. Constant brushing
will also do it. The white of an egg, so
often advised, will darlen blond, au-
burn or chestnut hair. Borax, an even
y teaspoonful to cup of warm water,
used once n month, is the best wash
for light hair. The day after the appli-
cation rinse first in warm water. then
In cold water, and dry in the sun, If
possible.
