 The only attendant was the brides sis ter. Mrs. G. G. Zirkle
 The bride and groom entered together The bride was lovely in an exquisite lin gerie gown elaborately trimmed witf lace, and with a white hat trimmed witt white aigrettes and white maline. She carried an arm bouquet of Easter lilies tied with white maline. Her only or moment was a pigeon ruby brooch, whicf was worn by the grooms mother, Mrs G. J. Stone, wife of Judge G. J. Stone
 Rev. H. M. Edmonds performed the ceremony Only the immediate family witnessed the ceremony, but afterwards a reception was held and number of friends called to extend congratulations.
 At o'clock MT. and Mrs. Stone left for New York and other points.
 The brides going away gown was a handsome basket weave tailor suit of tan color, with a hat of Tuscan straw, trimmed with tan aigrettes.
 Much interest centers in this marriage. The bride has been very popular during her young womanhood and has hosts of friends who regret to see her go to an other city to make her home.
 Mir Stone formerly lived in Montgomery but now resides in Birmingham, where he holds a position with one of the railroads in the law department. He has many friends throughout the state.

PASSED EVENING IN PEACE
Foxy Plttsburs Man Devised Scheme
Which Worked Out Into
Beautiful Success.

The wise man of Pittsburg lives In
Shady side. II there's one thing he
loves to do when he goes home 1t Is
to read book in peace. One night
when he arrived home he was In
formed by wife and daughters that
they were to have company that night.
The wise mans face fell as he con-
templated the new volume under his
arm, zone of the six best" etc Who
were they? o, some women friends.
an beat the game" said Mr.. Wise
Man to himself. Immediately after
the evening meal he dashed out to
East Liberty, bought one Of those cut
up picture puzzles. with $50 pieces in
1t, dashed back again, and when the
company arrived and had been com
fortably seated, he interrupted the
chatter to spring the puzzle on the
unsuspecting women. They fell into
the trap. The only table big enough
for the game was the large dining
table. THIS was cleared, ard all gath
cred about to patch the big picture to.
gether.
/. When they were well absorbed, Mr..
Wise Man took his book OF in cor.
ner, in comfortable rocker, and read
until aroused after midnight only by
the departure OF the company. The
picture lay on the dining table about
one-quarter complete. The guests
were invited to come again.
The next morning breakfast was
served in the kitchen on small table
because mother and daughters re
fused to disturb the puzzle until they
had completed 1t. For a week the
puzzle occupied the dining table and
mother and the girls would work at It
in odd moments, while Mr.. Wise Man
read his books.-Pittsburg Gazette

For "Finicky" Appetite.

My children had "finicky" appetites.
and it seemed impossible to provide
a meal that would be acceptable to
all.
Some of the things they disliked
they had never tasted, so one day
said: Tomorrow Robert may or.
der the dinner. He may be the host
and the rest Of US will be his guests,
OF course, as his guests it would be
objectionable for us to tell him we
did not like his food We must, at
least, taste of everything. The one
who is the most perfect-bred guest
may give dinner soon after. OF
course, If there is anyone who is
boorish, that one win be denied the
privilege OF entertaining u.s." Well
the result Of our series Of dinners
was that Alice discovered that cream
really tasted very nice, and Paul
found that eggs were not the abomina
ton he had thought them. Moreover
their father meekly accepted French
dressing, although hitherto he had
never tasted olive oil.-Harper q
Bazaar.

LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT
Man Who Minimizes Importance OF
Trifies Makes Life a Burden
to His Wife.

1t is the little things that do mat.
ter-to woman, a man would say,
little thinking how greatly he himself
is Influenced by the tribes he despises.
If the dinner is late, or his cuffs are
frayed, IL his wife has forgotten to
tidy her hair, or she is not ready at
the time appointed, he Is distinctly
ruffled; the fire Is laid ready for the
blaze--it may be in business that the
match is applied or it may be at
home; it matters not where, the re-
suits are disastrous, and the little
thing is responsible.
Home life is made up OF little
things, but unfortunately the man
does not realize 1t. He little thinks
how wearying are the little things
and he has no conjunction in adding
to them. He does not know how much
1t means to the tired housewife II he
even stoops to put Goals on the fire
II he puts away his slippers himself
If he does not leave cigar ends in eV
cry available spot. But he is 30 oc
cupied with the big things that unless
he has been trained to be thoughtful
he makes life burden to the woman
he has promised to cherish.
To the woman who lives among th'
little things they matter intensely. i
is bitter to hear that he forgets thu
anniversary Of their wedding, that hi
let's her birthday pass, as the dea
ones at home never did; that he sci
dom thinks of giving her a-present o
suggesting an outing; that he doe
not even pass the salt at the table
nor open the door for her to go out
1t is the little things which build Vi
the barrier between husband an
wife.

Lively times are expected during
the meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Iowa Federation of Labor.
The Federation was expelled from the
American Federation of Labor at its
last meeting and the executive com.
mittee will make an attempt to get
back into the field. To do so they
must first refuse to seat the electrical
workers members. The electrical
workers seeded from the national
body because the Federation refused
TO recognize their right ito eMpel sew
eral of their officers. At the Dubuque
convention the electrical workers
were seated despite the protest Of
Grant Hamilton, organizer of the
American Federation For this Iowa
was expelled. Now in order to get
back into the national fold, Iowa must
first get rid of her electrical workers.
This proposition will come before the
executive meeting of the state FEEDER
alton and as several members of the
committee are opposed to disturbing
the electrical workers, even TO get
back into the national organization, a
lively fight is promised. A prominent
labor leader said today that the cleo
trical workers of the state must
square themselves with the American
Federation of Labor If they expect to
remain affiliated with the Iowa FEEDER
alton. The fight promises to be car
ried to the Waterloo convention next
May. In all probability the fight
which took place at Dubuque will be
made all over again at Waterloo.

'THEOLD KALBACH HOME.
Pioneer Building 0utlived Its USE
fulness. Being Razed.

The Old Kalbach House" one Of
the Oldest land marks In Oskalooss
relic of the pioneer days of the
county, is being torn down. 1t is a
brick and frame two-story structure
the corner of High avenue and B St
and one of the oldest structures in
the business section. The building
was erected in 1852 or 1853 by Sam.
uel McWilliams, who had returned
from California with some money
and who desired to invest it. The
building was nearing completion when
IL was purchased by William Bowen
and Horace King. For few years
it was operated as hotel known as
1.-THE Bowen House" and 1t became
the most popular place in the town.
The old "Oskaloosa House" and the
Madison House." the other hotels of
the day had fallen into disfavor at
the time and the new hotel was pop
ular while operated as place of en-
teTtainment for the travelling public.
The old time stage coaches stopped
here and it was a center of the social
and the political activity of the times,
The property was next purchased by
William s. Dart and he occupied the
house as a family residence. The
property passed to the ownership of
Isaac Kalhach in 1868 and was the
home of his family for many years.
The memory of hospitality of the
place lives yet in the recollection of
many people of the city who have
been entertained socially within it's
walls. In later years the house was
occupied as family hotel by Henry
mother of viii Howell, Mrs. L. j.
Brown and Jas. Barnhill and wife.
The building has not been regularly
occupied during the past season hav-
ing only transient tenants. 1t has
been damaged by numerous fires and
otherwise injured and was fast fall
ing into a state of delapidation. The
old house having passed its useful
ness to the owners is being dismant-
eled and torn down by the Messrs.
Kalbach. The porches have been re-
moved and the frame portions OF the
building are being taken away, the
walls will be torn down and one OF
the best known places in the city will
soon have passed into history.
1t is said that there are possibili-
ties for this corner and talk Is heard
of numerous improvements for the
place. What will come of the reports
is a problem for future determine
ton.
