 The large reception hall and parlors were beautifully deco rated with southern smilax and ferns, and the music, with Miss Mary White at the Victrola, lent to the occasion a charm which combined with graciousness of the entertaining committee com posed of MT. Imon Gee MT. and Mrs. Gould Wilson, caused a feel ing of good will to permeate the many guests, that found express ion in laughter and kind words.
 Miss Hazel Hamilton presided at the Punch bowl through the evening.
 There were many features of intertainment and the drawing contest in which the drawing of photos of MT. and Mrs. White caused much meriment. Miss Lola Wilson and Mr. Respess Wilson were. awarded first prizes.
 Each guest was presented with green minatune bells and much pleasure followed in seeking their corresponding bell for supper.
 The dining room was artistic ally decorated in red and green and the table arrangement was a vision of beauty with cover of hand made lace falling a depth of several inches and encircled with a wreath of poinsette. Graceing the table were red and green candles shaded to give a soft pretty light. Overhead was a large red wedding bell suspended from the chandelier which was en twimed with smilax and from which gracefully developed red silken ribbons to points on the later.
 Mesdames w. R. and s. T. White presided. and most deli cate collation. was served midst strains of music echoing from the mystic somewhere.
 The guests repaired to the recep- tion hall to witness, an auction sale of ,fine paintings in puns. Mir. Ellsworth in his original manner sold the (. Pillars of Greece. ..Ruins of China, and many others at extravagant prices, causing much laughter, also the cutting of the prophecy cake added much to the enjoy ment.

 Mrs. White wore an embroid- cred point de espreit over blue messaline with marabout trim mings.
 At a late .hour the guest bade adieu to the host and hostess with many expressions of a delightful evening and wishing them many returns of the happy occasion.

ON WRONG HONEYMOON ROUTE
SCOT Marks Telltale Evidence Of What
Occurred While Going Through
Tunnel.

All of the passengers were amused
at the dovelike tenderness of the
honeymoon couple from the rural dis
tracts, and when the train emerged
from the tunnel the fiashily dressed
commercial salesman thought he
would have some fun at their expense.
See here, neighbour" he said in a
loud whisper as he touched the nerv-
Gus bridegroom on the arm, don't
you know there are rules against kiss
ing on this road?"
Rules against kissing?" faltered
the frightened countryman.
Certainly! You were kissing while
coming through the tunnel"
"H-how in the world did you find
that out mister?"
why, by the SCOT marks. There
was one on your nose before we en-
tered the tunnel, and now there is
one of the same size on the brides
nose"
And just then the pretty bride be-
gan to stamp her foot impetuously
and upbraid her awkward spouse.
Thar, now, Silas, what did tell
you? Told you not to come on the
soft coal route. If we had come on
any other route, they wouldn't have
ketched us!"-Judge.

HOW TOTS REGARD DOCTOR
Reason for Sudden Affection Was Not
at All Complimentary to

A Chicago physician gleefully tells
child story at his own expense. The
five children of some faithful patients
had measles, and during their rather
long stay in the improvised home hos
pital they never failed TO greet his
daily visit with pleased acclamations.
The good doctor felt duly fiattered, but
rashly pressed the children. in the
days of convalescence. for the reason
OF this sudden affection At last the
youngest and most indiscreet let slip
the bitter truth.
I'VE felt so sick that we wanted
awfully 10 do something naughty, but
we were afraid 10 be bad for fear you

rid medicine. SO we were awfully
glad to see you, always. cause you
made us stick out our tongues. We
stuck 'em out awful far"
Another laughable doctor" story
deals with little Edna, who played
mother with such realistic enthusiasm
that her immediate maternal ances-

tween sobs.
What was the matter with her?"
