Bloomington Justice 40 Years Aid
of Cupid.
Squire William 3. Hendryx Claims
the Record for Number of Coup
les M~arried-Is 8" 81 of
Dir A4. Sourt.

Bloomington, Ill.-Bloomingtcu is
becoming world famous as a Gretna
Green, due to the popularity of its
clergymen and justices of the peace
in tying matrimonial knots. The
great magnet for those seeking the
altar of love, however, is the marriage
parlor of Justice William b. HendryX,
a veritable Cupid's bower, where
blushing brides and gallant grooms
from all over the United States come
to plight their VOWS.
Justice Hendryx now holds the
worlds record, having married 5000
couples, far more, it is said, than any
other, be he bishop or judge, parson
or justice. EIe is now marrying the
grandchildren OF couples whom he
united in wedlock 40 years ago and
will shortly attend a reunion in Chi
cago of a family where he performed
the ceremony for each member.
Thirty-six years ago he married
Chester w. Archer and Mary ]. Will
hanson, now residents of Chicago,
their home being near Lincoln park.
Four children were born to this
couple, two sons and two daughters.
All are married, and the ceremony in
each case was performed by Justice
Hendryx.
The family concluded that a reunion
without Judge HendryX would be like
the play of Hamlet with the title role
missing. He will accordingly preside
over the event and several other Chi
cagoans who were married by the
same squire have been invited to at
tend.
Justice Hendryx's marriage par
lors' are in a class by themselves.
Tourists are always advised to visit
these parlors, whether matrimonially
inclined or otherwise.

mony, such as Perfect Union"

which cost the justice $500, covers

according to the modern enlightened
practice Of civilized nations, they were

At the date when this message is
printed this government has terminated
diplomatic relations with the Zelaya gov
eminent, for reasons made public in a
communication to the former Nicaragua
charge d'affaires, and is intending to take
such future steps as may be found most
consistent with its dignity, its duty to
American interests and its moral obliga-
tons to Central America and to c~iviliza-
ton.

ding march is an important adjunct
and an obliging s~tenographer in an
adjoining office is ready to respond
to a call for the strains of Men
delsshon or Lohrengrin If the accom-
paniment is desired.
The justice is also prepared to sup
ply f~orgetful grooms with full dress
suits or brides with wells and orange
blossoms if request is made. A barrel
of rice and a box of old shoes are also
kept on hand.
When the ceremony is ended-and
this, too, is in a class by itself, as all
who have been married by him will
gladly testify-these is a wedding GER
tifcate, original with the justice, that
brides pronounce a dream. Cupids
and hearts predominant in the decora-
ton of the certificate, and there is a
guarantee with each, that the knot is
i~ndissoluble.
Squire Hendryx says that he is the
greatest enemy of the divorce court In
existence. His couples, he asserts, al
ways live happily together. He as
scribes this to a peculiar hypnotic
spell which he says he throws around
the couple while the binding words
are being uttered.
Hendryx enlisted in the union army
as a boy and fought CALAMITY for five
years. After the war he became
deputy sheriff. Forty years ago he
was elected justice of the peace and
has been reelected every four years
since.
1t is not uncommon for him to
marry five couples in a single day. He
has married couples from nearly every
state in the union, some coming thou
sands of miles just to be wed by the
famous marrying squire.
Recently he married a couple while

NURSING AS A PROFESSION.

Chamberlain, s. D.-The trained
nurse has come to stay. The busy
physician who can not spend but an
hour or less with his patients has
come TO depend on trained nurses to
carry out his directions and to attend
constantly to the patients needs and
to make accurate report OF the same
to him. With the assistance of the
trained nurse the physician is able
to use modern methods of massage,
hydrotherapy, and other scientific
measures that give him marvellous re-
suits in the relief of his patients. The
trained nurse is displacing the prac-
tical nurse very rapidly and already
a large number of States require a
nurse to graduate from a recognized
school and pass the State examination
the same as the physician in order to
practice her profession. This gives
protection to the trained nurse, but in
a greater measure protects the pa
tient.
The people Of South Dakota want
the very best and the graduate nurse
who is faithful can always keep busy.
Twelve nurses graduated in August
from the Chamberlain Sanitarium
Nurses Training School and all are
now engaged in lucrative positions
and the demand exceeds the supply.
This school offers many advantages
over the ordinary Hospital school, as
the Course includes thirty-ive studies
bearing directly on the nursing pro-
fession besides the practical care OF
all kinds Of cases. Those admitted
to the school are persons with ability
n can make a success Of the work.
Nine instructors make this school
equal to any and superior to a MAORI
ty Of training schools for nurses.
Massage, hydrotherapy, laboratory
analyses and electricity are given in
addition to what can be learned in the
best hospital training school.
This fits the nurse to care for all
kinds Of medical cases as well as
those needing surgical attention. Con-
s%equently, the Sanitarium Training
School for Nurses has a wide field
for practice and graduates are inval-
liable to the physician who is using
modern methods in his practice.
The course extends ver a period Of
three years and an average of four
teen recitations and demonstrations
are given each week. A large number
Of both medical and surgical cases
come to the S~anitarium and this gives
an exceptional advantage to those
wishing to receive a nurses training.
Over two thousand cases have been
treated In the institution during it's
first two years of work. The large adj
ditions that are now being constructed
will give more room for patients and
greater facilities. The Chamberlain
Sanitarium Training School bids fair
to become the largest school in the
Northwest.
