guilty. After INJECTING a hearty shak-

was to sample each item of food from
a wonderful collection placed on long
tables. With eighty friends of all
ages, from a few days to so years, the
acknowledged chickens, the gold col
ored cakes, golden butter and cream,
with many other kinds of good things

the groom, he did not forget to call the
of the audience to girls of
the auburn and the golden hair. Reach
ing into his pocket he drew out a
sack of golden color and showed there
IN some pieces of sure enough gold,
amounting to about Sos. Making his
own characteristic comments on the
sack and contents, he passed them over
to the bride for safe keeping. Besides
this amount two checks for $40 each
were received from old-time friends in
California. Several other presents were
also received. I think no happier
