The friends of Miss Mary Per-
kins, charming young lady who
resided on Eight avenue in this
city, will no doubt be surprised to
learn that on Wednesday evening
of this week she was married to a
Mr. Charles A. Keffelring, who
formerly resided here. The we'd
ding occurred at eight-thirty at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Goodwin, at
Fort Springs in Summers county.
The ceremony was pronounced by
the eminent Rev. DR.. Telford, pas
tor of the Presbyterian church at
that point, and was witnessed by
quite number of the friends of
the contracting parties as we'll as
by Mr.. and Mrs. Ct. S. Perkins, Mr..
Perkins being a brother of the
bride. Mr.. Lawrence Alexander
and Miss Elizabeth Goodwin were
the attendants at the wedding and
Miss Sue Mann played the we'd
ding march. A few days ago Miss
Perkins left here for visit to her
brother at Fort Springs, but she
left not the slightest information
that before her return she would
be bride, and the news of her
wedding day caused much surprise
among her friends, who are quite
numerous in this city. Mr.. Keffel-
ring. the groom, was for years con-
nected with the Metropolitan Life
Insurance company in Huntington,
but some time ago was promoted to
the position of manager of the same
company's business at Hinton.
He is thorough young business
man and made many friends dur.
ing his stay here. The newly mar
ried couple will make their future
home in Hinton, and will have the
best wishes of innumerable friends
for bright, happy, prosperous
future Huntington Advertiser.

% Days in Order to Cure Com
sumption Did a Connels-
Vile man.
Arthur Martin, of Hopwood, who
died on Friday of consumption,
tried to cure himself by fasting,
says the ConnellsvilIe, Ohio Cour-
Ter. Some time ago he was in.
formed that there was no hope for
him. He had inherited the dis
ease and there seemed to be
no possible chance for his recovery.
Martin knew of the theory of star
vation to overcome the disease. AT
first he took one meal day, then
tried going without food for several
kays at time. Last November he
began his long fast. He intended
to do without food for two weeks
but actually continued without {
morsel of food for % DAYS. Dur
ing this time he continued takine
exercise. walking: three miles t.
Uniontown daily to see his physi
clan.
He lost half a pound a day
weighing lis pounds at the end o
his long fast. He had lost all de
sire for food. Then on a diet o
milk and eggs his wonderful recov
recovery began. Ip a short tim
he weighed more than he ever di
before. and showed remarkable i'm
proyement. His disease was to
deep seated. however, and mont
ago he began a final decline. Hi
doctor believes he prolonged hi
life by his remarkable fast, an
would have overcome the diseas
had it not been inherited.
