est daughter, Irene Isham, and George

in the green setting: The dining room
where the service was read large bell
of maidenhair ferns hung above the
bower of ferns and daisies. The native
wild flowers were used exclusively IN

white covers were mingled with the
ferns in most effective manner. An
orchestra played the "Lohengrin D.,

the bridal party. The white ribbons
were carried by the two little nephyws
of the bride, Harrison Ford Wilkins of
Minneapolis, and John M. Atwood, Jr.,

Ruth and Helen Ford Atwood, were
flower girls. Miss Grace Louise Gil

chiffon, fashioned with Valenciennes
lace, a white picture hat trimmed with
pink roses, and carried q shower bouquet
of pink roses. The bridal gown was Of
liberty satin, made with a train and
trimmed with chiffon and duchesse lace.
Her bouquet was of white roses. The

II has remained for Russian Off
cialdom to discover in our American
free libraries nurseries of crime,
hotbeds of anarchy and armories of
nihilism, furnishing forth, without
money and without price weapons
ready forged for aiming at the heart
OF organized government and for
striking at the divine right of kings.
How real this library danger has

from the Astor library. One of the
volumes was an apparently innocent
novel by Jules Verne. but the other

for months been lurking in the Astor

watching for persons who call for

In the case of Melnek, his alleged
recklessness appears TO have afford

DIFFERENCE IN SIZE.

The prosecution of ice dealers and
laundrymen in various cities for. en-
tering into conspiracies in restraint
of trade, reflects mellow light on
the "Big Ones" against whom we
have been railing these many
months. II is often said the big
trusts. far from being monsters, are
natural products of our social sys-
TEN. Hence, great impetus to the
socialistic propaganda. Still more re-
cent discoveries convince us that
trust promoters represent the natu-
raj development or our business
ideals. II the trusts stripped OF their
most malignant attributes are inner
emily wrong, then the business prin-
ciples by which many merchants are
guided in their relations to the pub
lie are wrong-sO. ebb the socialistic
tide.
Investigations of conditions con-
trolling the ice business in some of
the cities disclose the fact that the
manufacturing dealers operate on
the same principle as the trust, 50
far as the obnoxious and immoral
features are concerned. What furth-
err Investigations will reveal along
the line OF local combinations TO reg
ulate the price of articles of domes-
tic consumption is problematical, but
we are beginning to see that the only
difference between the big conspra-
tors and the little ones, is the differ
ence that exists between the big AMI
the little of all species-eapacity.
