decorated with flowers.
The bride was handsomely gowned in
white chiffon trimmed with rose point
lace. She wore a tulle veil and carried a
bouquet of lilies of the valley. The maid
of honor was Miss Helen Partridge of
Minneapolis, and Miss Marion Partridge
was the bridesmaid. Charles M. Case OF
Minneapolis, brother of the bridegroom,
was best man, and George r. Folds OF
Brooklyn and Angus w. Morrison of Min
neapolis were the ushers.
The wedding was particularly notable
on account of the presence of large
number Of prominent persons in New
York and Brooklyn society. The guests
from. New York and Brooklyn numbered
about one hundred and fifty, and those
from out of town were as follows: Mr.

TO CLEAN FINE RUGs.-can you give
me any hints In regard to the care OF
oriental rugs7-G. F. M.
A thrifty housekeeper who prides her
self on knowing how to keep her rugs
fresh for years never shakes them, but
keeps them clean by spreading out on a
porch floor and sweeping them thoroly
on both sides with soft broom. Then
she goes over them several times with a
carpet sweeper which Is kept free from
dust by emptying the dust traps frequent
ly. Any rugs which have seen hard wear
and are very dusty are hung on line
and lightly beaten with small whip.
On sweeping day every rug is looked over
for possible breaks, and every loose cor
ner no matter how small, is promptly
mended with linen carpet thread and
woods If the occasion requires. If grease
spots are discovered they are cleaned with
tepid water and household ammonia in the
proportion of half teaspoonful to a
quart of water. Scrubbing the spot light
ly, wetting the rug as little as possible
and hanging in the sun to dry is the
method. Never use soap that is coarse
and rank; if soap must be used, select
refined sort.

BEFORE THE PUBLIC EYE

The dramatic recital given last evening
in Johnson hall by Miss Anna Heritage,
one Of Mr. and Mrs. Hollis pupils, was
extremely pleasing, and the young reader
was the recipient of many flowers and
congratulations. Miss Heritage essayed
both tragedy and comedy, as well as a
number Of purely poetic quality, and, tho
she succeeded best in comedy, her work
was both finished and convincing in other
lines, marked by a consistent interpre-
tation and rare understanding. Opening
with tThe Sweet Girl Graduate" by
Phelps, in which she wore a bewitching
gown of 1880 period, she had an oppor-
tunitys to display the pertness and sauci-
ness Of girl of 16; while in ':Nydia, the
Blind Girl Of Pompeii," the conception de-
manded more poise and dignity, in which
Miss Heritage was entirely adequate. In
two numbers-"The Hunchback' and "Mr.
and Mrs. Muffett,'' Miss Heritage was
ably assisted by another of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hollis pupils, George Brown. Rachiman-
| inoff's popular prelude was given with
show Of technique and appreciation Of
its demands by Miss Eta Farnsworth,
while Miss Lille Schultz played Con
doliera'' by List, and March of the
Dwarfs," by Moskowski with good feel
ing and appreciative understanding.
