ciety was startled this afternoon by the
announcement of the marriage of Miss
Mamie Moye and Mr. j. M. Hostetter,
both of this place. They met by APP
pointment at the home of a mutual &C
acquaintance, Miss Moye, in a street
dress and accompanied by few friends,
repaired to the Presbyterian church
and they were married by Rev. b. ID.
Brown. Miss Moye is one of the most
prominent young society women in the
city and widely known all over the

supposed that Miss Moye's mother
would have favored the union had her

to think of laying in her winter stock
of conserva. Conserya is a dish with
out which no Italian family would
think of passing the winter. Every
year about this time the average Ital-
ian housewife may be seen buying
large quantities of tomatoes. The
tomatoes need not be overchoice and
sometimes the softer they are the bet
ter conserva they make. The toma toes
are taken home, put in a press and
then squeezed until every drop of juice
has been extracted. The pulp which re-
mainsis spread upon board and placed
in the sun to dry. When it has at
tanned the consistency of putty it is
scraped together and placed in alright
jars for the winter. 1t is used for max
