tend invitations to all members of con-
greSs, but this it was found would fill
the executive mansion to overlooking.
The "official list was restricted. there

supreme court and the diplomatic
corps. The latter, with the representa-
tives of the army and navy who will
be present will contribute the bril-
liancy of their gold lace and uniforms
toward the impressiveness of the spec
tacle in the famous east room at the
time of the marriage.
Although the adjuncts of the cere-
mony will make it Il somewhat elab-
crate function, the wedding service it
self will be comparatively simple af

bridesmaids. She had so many friends
to choose from that the problem of Sc

the marriage service will then proceed
in accordance with the ritual of the
Episcopal church. The officiating cler-
gyman will be the bishop of Washing
ton, the Right Rev. Henry Y. Satterlee,
an old friend of the family. He will
be assisted by the Rev. DR.. Roland
Cotton Smith, rector of st. Johns
church, where Miss Roosevelt and her
mother attend. There will be music
by the vested choir of st. Johns and
also by the famous Marine band. Mr..
Longworth will have best man, and
there will be eight ushers.
The wedding dress-the gown in
which the bride will march to the altar

interest to several millions of the fair
sex. Miss Roosevelts trousseau in
cludes many beautiful costumes, but
the richest of all is that which she will
wear when she takes the marital vows.
1t is not remarkable for it's elaborate
character, but rather for its tasteful
ness and simplicity, and in it the bride
will appear with quaint and pictur-
esque setting more becoming to her
than a costume of greater pretentious-
ness. The gown is a shimmering robe
Of silver and white brocade trimmed
with exquisite rose point lace, inherit
ed by the bride elect from her own
mother, the presidents first wife, who
died when Miss Alice was three days
old and who before her marriage was
Miss Alice Lee. The material of which
the gown is fashioned was woven in
Newark, N. j., and on its completion

the pattern could not be reproduced.

of $50. The statement is made that il
the threads of the gown were elongated
they would stretch from New York to
San Francisco, and even then enough
would be left to encircle Pixies peak.
At the wedding breakfast immedi-
ately following the ceremony the bride
will be surrounded by the young wo-
men who have been her special chums
and who would have been invited to
be bridesmaids but for the danger of
making determinations and wounding
somebody's feelings. The presents
promise to be very numerous and cost
ly, as the heads of many foreign gov
ernments will take this opportunity of
expressing esteem and friendship for
the American people by gifts to the
young woman whose sire happens at
this time to occupy the post of chief
magistrate.
The presents from the potentates of
Kingdoms and empires will be costly.
But both the bride and bridegroom,
who are true blue Americans and of
democratic spirit, will appreciate, too,
the less expensive tokens of good will
from personal friends and also from
private citizens whose acquaintance
they do not possess. Even the Kansas
farmer who sent some turnips which
had won Il prize Mt the county fair will
not be ignored in the letters of ac-
acknowledgement, and the Chinese mer-

Marcia Gordon was sixteen years old

natural that she should love her coun-

fought for the Union in the civil war,
and on the bright April morning in

senior was in its ranks. Furthermore.
Boyd McCarron also wore the blue

blithely ut the head of the sturdy col

McCarrou and Marcia had been
friends and comrades all their lives.
Their mutual liking was trembling on
the verge of something deeper and
more enduring when the declaration of
war swept the young man away to
the camp where the state troops were
fitted for the coming campaign.

TIERS death was mingled with sorrow
scarcely less poignant that he must
give up his place in the ranks.
His mother and himself were now alb
Solutely alone in the world. Her health
was not strong Their little home was
mortgaged. Inclination pointed one
way, duty the other, and duty won. At
the very hour the Huntersville rifles
took the oath McCarron, though with
them in spirit, stepped from the train

\ few persons understood and ad-
mired him for the course, so eloquent Of
moral courage, which he had adopted.
Their appreciation did not counterbal-
ance the sneers of many who regarded
the young man as Il coward. Brown,
proprietor of the store, was sensible
man. HySteria did not pass as patriot
ism with him. Despite the clamoring
Of those who insisted that McCarron
for running away from the enemy's
bullets should be driven from town he
gave the boy his old place.
The cloud in time passed. Saner
judgment convinced most persons they
were wrong in branding McCarron as Il
pOltrOon. When the company, sadly
decimated. returned from Cuba after
the war the soldiers had nothing but
good words for the man who had been
tholr comrade. Gradually he won back

al two comforting remembrances-his
mother appreciated with a gratitude
that was pitiful the depth of his sacri-
fee and the mortgage had been lifted
from their home.
Marcia Gordon found in her erstwhile
playmate Il puzzle which time did not
solve. The high spirited girl abhorred
cowardice and could not believe that
the boy who had been her companion
could be base. Over and over again
she convinced herself that he was
straightforward brave and manly;
that he had come home because his
conscience had shown him it was the
only thing to do. And, while she hated
herself for It, doubt always crept
into her reasoning, u doubt she could
not dispel.
The love for McCarron which had
been on the verge of disclosing itself
to her maiden soul was arrested by
the persistent distrust. 1t was like
rosebud-frozen as it was about to I'M
fold in glorious bloom and fragrance.
1t did not decay, and it could not de-

She knew that McCarron's love was
hers hers alone, and that with him,

They met frequently as friends, but

She sat by the window of her home
one afternoon in early winter watching
the first snowfall of the season Lit
lie drifts We're forming here and there
on the dusty pavement. The boys of
the neighborhood, radiant with health
ana animal spirits, welcomed the snow
with wild rejoicing.
They We're dancing in circle on the
tracks of the electric line. Her heart
gave little throb as McCarron APP
peared, striding along homeward. He
seemed to enjoy breasting the wind.
His head was up and his broad Shout

A smile on his fine face, he stopped
moment to watch the boys at their
play. The early darkness of winter, al
ready beginning to thicken. and the
shouts of joyous young America pre-
vented sight or sound of a heavy car
until it was almost upon the merry
circle.
Then the boys fed in panic, all but
one little lad, who slipped on the
smooth wet bricks and sprawled help
less across the rail. The motorman
banged the gong and twisted the brake
frantically, but the momentum of the
car still carried it forward at cruel
speed.
With sudden sick horror and yet
with thrill of joy, too, Marcia strain
ing her eyes through the gloom, saw
McCairon dart from the walk into the
street, saw him brush the little figure
clear of the rails and then go down
himself beneath the rust of the car.

In New England Orchards.

One method of renovating an old or,
chard which +. w. Rane of New
Hampshire reports as successfully
used at the state experiment station
consists in breaking up the soil in
spring and after thoroughly preparing
It planting to dwarf peas or bush
beans. By this method the ground is
frequently cultivated, the pods pay for
the labor, and the crop is turned under
early enough so that cover crop can
be planted.
