among them being the complete
furnishings for a modern sani-

and, amid showers of oxalic and
permanganate, set forth on their
journey to the most celebrated
health resorts Of the world, where
they will do as we'll as can be ex-

the doctor and his bride will
take up their residence in the San
itarium, now being erected for
them, and where they will be at
home to their friends during the
