What the v. S. Geological Surveyors
Say of Silver Spring.

No state in the union has larger or
more numerous springs than Florida.
Many of them form good sized streams
from the start and some of them are
navigable. The largest spring in the
state, and one of the largest and prob
ably the best known in the United
States, is Silver Spring, which is To-
Gated six miles east of Ocala. This
spring forms the source of the Ock-
lawaha river, a tributary of the st.
Johns, and steamboats, traversing the
river enter the spring basin, which
has an area of several acres. The
water is from twenty-five to thirty
feet deep and is wonderfully clear,
appearing absolutely colorless.
A station for measuring the flow of
the spring has been established by
the United States Geological sur
vey. A gage has been attached to
the row boat house at the extreme
head of the spring. the daily readings
are taken by Mr.. T. w. Pierce, the
spring keeper. Current meter meas
urements are made by the hydro
graphers of the survey. A measure
ment made May &c, 1906, when the
station was established determined
the discharge to be five hundred and
fifty-four cubic feet per second.

MIR. HARDAKER WEBS MISS PIATT.

The uniting of two lives IN
the sacred bond of wedlOck has al
ways been the greatest event OF IN
terest to all classes since God gave
to man his highest, best and loveliest
reation-woman-fo his helpmeet
and cOmpanion-his wife, the sweet
est bond of life. To all it carries a
message of love and devotion and a
unity of soul and heart.
The marriage of Miss Edith Piatt
and Mr.. Arthur Hardaker at the Bap-
fist church on Monday evening was
a beautiful event, the Rev. Charles
Chauncey Carroll speaking the solemn
words that united their lives for all
eternity.
The church was aglow with lovli-
ness. The decorations of white and
green were simple yet most admir-
able, the entire church being orna-
mented with palms and Magnolia
leaves. The chancel was especially
lovely in it's decorations of bamboo
and potted plants, while placed grace
fully about were large vases of big
white chrysanthemums.
A specially prepared musical pro-
gram was beautifully rendered by
Miss NJ. B. Wartmann and at nine
o'clock the wedding march announced
the coming of the bridal party. The
attendants entered singly up the two
aisles and alternated, first lady and
then a gentlemen and lastly came
Miss Edith Piatt leaning on the arm
of her sister and maid-of-honor, Miss
Mary Piatt.
The bride was exceedingly happy
and perfectly at ease and her natural
iattractiveness was only enhanced by
the exquisitely fashioned wedding
gown she wore. 1t was charming
gown of white messaline over taffeta
with a duchesse lace yoke and lace
Bertha and deliberately trimmed white
chiffon. She wore a veil of tulle and
carried a lovely bouquet of brides
roses.
The maid-of-hOnor wore a handsome
white lace gown over taffeta and she
carried pink bridesmaids roses.
At the altar Mr.. Hardaker and his
best man, Mr.. George R. Mexican,
advanced to meet the bride and the
marriage vows were said while stand
| ing under a wedding bell of white
chrysanthemums and during the pray
er the bride and groom knelt on
white satin pillows. The bride was
given away by her mother, Mrs. VIM.
Piatt, of Kentucky.
After the ceremony the bridal party
left the church in couples, the two
little neices of the bride, Elizabeth
and Meme Davis, wearing pretty lit
tie frocks of pink and green and scat
tering flowers in the pathway OF
1.-The bride and groom going first. They
were followed by the bride and groom

Piatt; Mr.. D. w. Davis with Mrs. c.

AT the home Of the brides brother
in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. D. w.
Davis, on South Third street, an in
formal reception was held, only the
bridal party and a few intimate
friends being present.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hardaker received
congratulations and best wishes in
the parlor standing in the bay win
dow, which was most attractively ar
ranged.
The entire house was a bower of
evergreens and flowers.
From a prettily decorated table in
the reception room punch was served
and in the back parlor were display
ed a very handsome array of cut
glass, silver and china wedding pres
ents. The presents were numerous
and very handsome and Mrs. Hardak-
er will begin housekeeping with ev-
erything that a young housekeeper
needs
The wedding supper was served in
the large dining hall, three tables
being used and thirty-two guests be-
ing seated, the brides table being
placed in the center. From the chan
delier hung a wedding bell of white
chrysanthemums and a tall vase of
these blossoms were in the center
Draped from the chandelier to the
center table were streamers of tulle
with big feathery bows and on the
other two tables the flowers were
brides and bridesmaids roses and
asparagus fern. The color of green
and white was seen in all the appoint
ments of the wedding supper.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hardaker left on the
early morning train for short, trip
to New York city and returning they
will spend a few days with relatives
at Chattanooga.
| Mrs. Hardaker's going away gown
was plum colored broadcloth with a
silk blouse, hat and gloves to match.
Afer the first of January Mr.. and Mrs.
Hardaker will be at home at Martel,
where Hr. Hardaker is the popular
young manager of the Martel Lum-
Der company at that place. He has
just finished the erection of a very
coy cottage and they Will at
once begin housekeeping.
And now fairly launched on the
river of life,
You take up the oars as husband and
wife;
But ever remember, whatever you do,
That the seat of the oarsman was
builded for two.
Thus seated together, as you pull
down the stream,
Be careful, keep stroke, or life is no
dream;
Perplexities come, and will come TO
you,
But are only half felt when divided
by two.
At last, when you've reached the
bright, shining shores,
Having entered the harbOr and I'M
shipped your oars;
May you hear the glad welcome of
Faithfully done;
Enter into thy joys, you two who are
one"
