Hot water bathing is beneficial in
counteractng the effect Of n chill.
First, it tmdoes another mischief work.
ed By the chill The latter has sent too
much blood internally SO risking CON
gestion. Heat brings the blood to the
surface. Heat IS not life, but 1t IS
one of the factors Of life. Indeed, dis
solution always occurs when the in
ternal bodily temperature Is greatly
lowered Heat will not keep a body
alive and great heat will Kill It. In
many morbid states Of the system, as
rheumatism. hot baths are Of great
service. Warm baths are useless. The
heat should he as great as can be
borne without pain.

Pretty Home Wedding.

At the home of the brides moth
CT, Mrs. Eda Whitman, on Adams
street, last evening at nine O'Clock,
| George NJ. Putegnat and Miss Kate
Whitman were united in the holy
bonds of matrimony, Rev. R. II.
Woodward, rector of the Church
of the Advent, performing the cere-
mony, according to the Episcopal
ritual. Owing to the recent be-
reavement of the groom's family,
the wedding was very quiet, none
but near relatives of either family
being privileged to witness it. The
handsome Whitman home was made
more attractive than ever for the
fitting of one of its cherished
daughters. Innumerable cut flow
ers lent their fragrant beauty to the
scene, being thrown into effective
relief by background of luxuriant
ferns. In hall, parlor and dining
room, the same profusion of flow
ers and ferns, in artistic array, form
ed harmonious surrounding for
the nuptials of two loving hearts.
The only attendants at the cere-
mony were w. G. Whitman and
Miss Eda Whitman, brother and
sister respectively of the bride.
The bridal gown was dainty
creation of white organdy, taste
fully adorned with lace, and most
becoming it was to the fair wearer.
After the completion of the cere-
mony and the usual shower of low
ing congratulations and good wish
es, light refreshments were served
IN the dining room. Later the en-
tire party accompanied the bridal
pair to the suite of rooms over the
Putegnat drugstore which they will
occupy, and refreshments were
again served there.
Mr.. and Mrs. Putegnat begin
their welded life amid the good
wishes and loving interest Of a host
of friends. The numerous hand
some wedding gifts which they re-
ceived attest this fact. The groom
has for many years been known as
young man of sterling qualities
and of excellent business ability,
while the bride is equally as well
known and generally loved by those
who have known her from girl
hood. THE HERALD joins other
friends in wishing them a long,
happy and prosperous life.
