POPULAR COUPLE MARRIED
Mr.. T. F. Green and Miss Lucille j. Cole
Married at the Brides Home.

On Saturday morning, November 7,
1908, at the home of the BRIDES mother,
Mrs. Agnes Cole, in Audubon, Iowa,
Mr.. II. F. Green was united in mar
riage to Miss Lucille j. Cole. Rev. d.
G. Macintosh. pastor of the Presby-
terrain church, officiating. The ring
service was used, Miss Margaret Green
carrying the ring concealed in the
heart of rose. Miss Dunn presided
at the piano, and as the bridal party
advanced to their stations she played
from Lohengren the wedding march,
and during the whole of the ceremony
played with the softest and ligbtest of
touch selections appropriate TO the
impressive words of this marriage SER
vice. The bride was beautifully attired
in gown of cream colored silk, with
lace trimmings, and carried BRIDES
roses. AT the conclusion of the cere-
mony hearty congratulations were
offered by the relatives and friends
and then the company sat down to par
take of the tempting refreshments pro-
vided for the occasion, which were
served by the Misses Margaret Green,
Helen Macintosh and Esther Mackin-
tosh; Mrs. Ed Green presiding at the
table. The color scheme throughout
was pink and white. Mr.. and Mrs.
Green were the recipients of numerous
and appropriate wedding gifts. They
took the morning train for their new
home out at Leshara, Nebraska. The
going out of this estimable couple is
q matter of sincere regret to the entire
community, and none but the heartiest
of good wishes will accompany them
from the hearts of friends here for
their future welfare. The bride is too
we'll known to need any eulogy here.
She has lived almost from her child
hood in Audubon and borne gener-
Gus part In all that concerns the well
fare of the town. The church, of which
she is devoted member, will surely
miss her presence and helpfulness,
where in choir and Sunday School, as
we'll as in numerous other places of
influence, she made herself well nigh
indispensable. Mr.. Green is a man of
the very highest character. In his
departure the town loses one of her
most estimable citizens. Everywhere
his hand has been for good. No wor-
thy cause has ever looked for his sup
port in vain. In the church, where
for so many years he has so success
fully wrought in choir, young peoples
meeting, in Bible club and in Sunday
School, his loss will be keenly felt for
many day. The happy couple carry
with them to their new home the good
will and best wishes of many friends.

PRESIDENT TAFT'S OPINION

On Thursday night of last week at q
dinner given in his honor by the Com
mercial Club of Cincinnati the next
president spoke as follows: every
business man who is obeying the law
may go ahead with all the energy In
his possession, every enterprise which
is within the statutes may proceed
without interference from the admins
tration, when acting legally; but all
interests within the jurisdiction OF the
federal government may expect rigid
enforcement of the laws against dis
honest methods"

Such remedies a. picra, which vas

score or more Of popular. homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulae for which were passed along

sometimes verbally communicated.

Peruna is useful in great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal

WORKS FOR CIVIC PRIDE.
Excellent Scheme Devised by Mer.
chants Of Western City.

A new scheme for arousing local
pride is being worked In an enterpris-
ing western city. The plan in brief
is. instead OF attempting to vitalize
the civic spirit Of the whole commu-
nifty. to organize clubs in different To-
oalities and to clean up and light up
certain sections. without regard TO
what may be done elsewhere For in-
stance. a club is organized in a
single block, and merchants on each
side Of the street are persuaded TO
join. II it is desired to make the
block brilliant with light at night AN
investigation is had to see how it can
be done. how much It will cost and
what it is worth. The plan has worked
so successfully that organizations are
springing up all over the same city TO
devote their attention TO cleaning or
lighting a certain restricted territory
1t is much easier to secure co-opera-
ton between 90 merchants than be
tween 200. and the influence OF the
few spreads in widening circle

How Her Life Was Saved When Bit.

harmless little garter snake fell on
