THE CORRECT THING IN
FALL BRIDAL BOUQUETS
How the Bride of September and October Ar
ranges Her Flowers.

Bridal bouquets with purple flowers
are now considered correct.
That IS. correct for widows, for the
old tradition OF brides carrying nothing
but white still holds. and probably viii
for all time.
Custom has. however. within the past
few months made this color exception in
favor OF widows who are again to we'd,
and purple and heIlotrope orchids amid
a bunch Of white roses or white orchids
have been used with telling effect at sew
eraI quiet summer weddings.
That the fashion IS a welcome one IS
demonstrated By the orders Tor yi0lets
and orchids or purple orchids with
white flowers that many of the florists
have received for fall marriages where
the services are 20 be held either IN a
church or quietly at home.
widows bouquets are made IKE cor
sages, and not Ike the elaborate show
ers'' that have so long been considered
appropriate for a bride upon her first
marriage. ana that viii be faVOrite again
during the coming season at all smart
ceremonies.
The widow corsages. while not as
snowy as the huge showers" are de-
cIdedIy attractive. and are prettily
made.
They are small. in comparison with
the size of an ordinary bridal bouquet
for they are only from eight 20 ten
inches in diameter.
Then, too, being almost round, they
seem small. and as they are pinned 10
the wedding gown the effect Is almost
that Of a large nOsegay.
They are tied with chiffon ribbon.
either in heliotrope or white, as the
bride wishes.
The larger part Of those corsage bou-
quets IS made Of white Bride roses. or
chids or lilies OF the valley, with a deli
cate purple orchid or few violets IN
a light heIiOtrope shade I'm the center Of
the bunch.
These flowers are arranged loosely To-
gether 10 avoid a stiff or set appearance.
and are tied with FLUFFY chiffon ribbon
made into six or eight loops about five
inches long and tufted 20 give rufhed
effect.
The two ends, seven inches each in
length. are also pulled out so that they
will be in keeping with the loops.
The shower bouquets, Ike those
used last year. will be made Of white
orchids. with lilies OF the valley or white
gardenias with the lilies though in sea-
son chrysanthemums viii be much
affected because they make possible
such beautiful decorations and give the
bride a chance to work her flowers in as
a part Of the General floral scheme for
ornamentation.
White roses. correct at all seasons.
will Of course be worn with lily showers.
These br1ouets are to be tied with white
satin ribbon. narrow for use in the
shower and chiffon.
The latter is made in five or six large
loops. from eight TO ten inches in length.
with two ends about twelve inches long.
The round or opera-shaped shower"

IT can be carried so conveniently on the
brides arm.
The size of these bouquets vary from
eighteen To twenty-four inches in diane
ter. being regulated entirely by the
height of the woman wearing them.

d-PaInted Hats.

There seems to be no stopping in the
universal race for novelty. The latest
craze is for hats hand-painted with the
designs Of the flowers with which they
are trimmed. Large leghorn hats in
white and black have their brims paint
ed with long trails OF pink or white
roses and trimmed with clusters Of the
flowers and big bows. A very dainty
toque also fashionable is Of pale mauve
crlnoline straw. trimmed with lilac and
ornamented with painted sprays OF the
same blossoms, which are half hidden
in the folds Of the straW.--London

Mr.. Stewart moved that section 8
of the bylaws be changed so that
the insurance limit of an Individual
piece of property would be increased
from $1,000 to $4,000. A viva voce
was ordered on the motion, after
but very little discussion, and seemed
to be favorable to the affirmative
side Upon the chair so ruling there
were calls for division of the house
and this brought forth a statement
from the chair to the effect that the
secretary had it marked down as
being carried, and that's the way it
would have to stand"
The big general mix-up occurred
about this time and Major Patrick S
wit and humor was taxed to the ut
most. Motions to increase the di-
rectory membership from seven to
nine members, to have an agent To-
Gated in every township where no
director resided, and then to have
agents so located, regardless of di-
rectors, with another motion as to
how directors should be elected, all
came in rapid succession, and had
the chairman in the air" until A.
C. Miller, with a telephone voice,
moved to table the entire bunch of
motions, so that the meeting could
commence over, and proceed prop
erly. The motion to table won out.
Again came the motion to have the
board of directors appoint an agent
in every town where there was no
director and this time the chairman
quickly declared that the 'sayes''
had it.
A struggle occurred over securing
the appointment of committee to
nominate seven directors, and the
motion to so proceed won out only
after general protest. Messrs. A.

c. Miller and A. P. Henderson Of
the Prairie Lawn Stock Farm, Red
wood Falls township, and John T.
Hojem of Shutdown township were
appointed as the committee, and
while they were out writing the
names of the previously typewriter
slate the blood-seeking members
attempted to get a ballot on direc-
tors, but again they were 'bowled"
out on a point of order that the king
making committee had not yet re-
ported. The committee, however,
returned at this juncture, and named
John Preuss of Waterbury, P. O..
Callaghan of Shutdown, G. B. Root of
Morgan, A. D. Stewart of Redwood
Falls, Eric Wilson of Gales, Daniel
Mckay of Kintire and Chas. Terhell
of Underwood as the seven. A
scramble ensued instantly, during
which Robt. Bittner remarked that
''the gang made up the ticket in a
sneak last year, and they are trying
to do it again this year" This
bumped the nominating committee
report, and it fell by the wayside.
Andrew Stewart felt the dagger
coming his way, and apparently
looking out for his own salvation,
and forgetting his friends of the
slate combine, threw up his hands,
and said that while he was a candi-
date for reelection as secretary, he
didn't want to be elected by clique,
or by machine methods.
Nominations were thrown open,
and shortly two ballot boxes, with a
separate set of tellers for each, SO
that man could vote twice, if he
desired, were thrown open. and af-
ter half an hour the slate ticket
brought in by the nominating com
mittee, aud then rejected, had all

His office saved the day. Those
looking for a row couldn't resist the
chair. They might have felt, been
confident, absolutely certain, that he
was wrong. but then it was Patrick
Callaghan, with his combination wit,
land who the d j was going up
against that?" And therein, there
by and thereon, may the slate-mak-
ers be thankful. Any one else in the
chair, with good leader on the floor
for the blood-hunters, would have
seen the latter vest-pocket the COM
bine without the latter knowing on
just what portion of the anatomy it
had been struck.
There were about $50 members
present at this annual meeting. The
minutes of a year ago were offered
for approval, but Jim Marvin of
Johnsonville objected to that partic-
ular paragraph crediting him with
being the author Of the resolution
seeking to change the name of the
company. He denied the allegation
and defed the alligator. But the
policy holders insisted that he was
cit" and the tag remained.
The financial statement came in
easy for an 20. K" it having pre-
viously been approved by the audit
ing committee of the company.
Per this statement the disburse-
ments during the year, other than
for losses, amounted to $2,441. 81.
This included the salaries of the sec
rotary and president, postage, print
ing, expenses of adjustments and d.
rectory expenses. The total dis
bursements during the year amount
ed to SIS, 420.41, leaving balance on
hand Dec. 31st last of $2,456. 20. A
further abstract Of the report is
herewith appended:
