STONING CHERRIES.
A Suggestion Which May he Accept
able to the inexperienced
Housewife.

A silver fork, with strong tines rather
closely set, is the best instrument,
though probably any other fork would
do if the tines are not too sharp. Hold
ing the cherry with the stem toward
the palm of your hand, push two tines
of the fork into the smooth end of the
cherry. In this way the stone is caught
on each side, which prevents slipping,
and is easily pushed out exactly at the
stem point. If it should seem little
awkward at first, persevere for one min
ute, and you will never stone cherries in
any other way. This method leaves the
fruit so perfect in shape that when it
Is canned one could never tell that the
stones had been removed. have tried
a large darning needle with fork, but
have found the fork most satisfactory,
says writer in Housekeeper.
Another suggestion which may be
acceptable to the inexperienced house
wife is: The best way to look over
any sort of plant for salads or greens.
When spinach, lettuce, cress or dan
delions are purchased or brought from
ones own garden, it is very commonly
the procedure of the housewife to plunge
them at once into cold water. This
causes every dried stem and spear Of
grass to cling to the green leaves, when,
If they are looked aSer before they are
washed, every particle will be quickly
removed by little slap Of the leaves
against the palm of ones hand, or If
any small particles of dried stems must
be picked off it can be much more easily
done while the leaves and the hands
are dry.

ular young Wilmingtonian.
1t was one of the prettiest and bright
est home weddings ever celebrated in
of the brides parents, No. 4GS Nun

festooned for the joyous event. The
hall and parIors of the coy home were
banked with lovely floral decorations,
most deftly arranged. Pink and white
were the predominant colors and were
made to harmonize with brilliant eff
feet.
At the hour appointed for the ceremo-
ny a sextette Of charming children

Lynch and Margaret Wilson, and
Masters Charles Lynch, Frank Berry
and Richard Ward, Jr.-gracefully
formed an aisle, and, as Miss Cannie
Chast"n superbly played a wedding
march, the bride, with her father, and
preceded by two flower girls. Misses
Annie Lu and Linda May Ward, two
nieces, approached and met the groom,
who was escorted by his best man. Mr..
Gelrge Honnet, Jr. Then, Rev. J. n.
Cole. pastor OF Grace NJ. E.. church,
performed the happy and impressive
wedding service.
The bride wore a handsome Pean de
Crepe gown. with silk applique and
lace trimmings. She carried a bouquet
Of sweet peas and maiden hair ferns.
The flower and ribbon girls were at
tired attractively in gowns of white
organdie. with lace trimmings and
pink ribbons.
The presents We're numerous and each
exceedingly handsome. Two Of the
most notable gifts were q silver water
set and an elegant couch. The former
was presented by the Wilmington Di-
vision of Naval Reserves, of which the
groom is ensign, and the latter was
presented by the grooms fellow-clerks
OF the Atlantic Coast Line, in the gen.
eral offices of which he holds an i'm
pOrtant position.
