twelve Mr. Adams arose and proposed
a toast to the couple who had happily
passed the 22nd mile stone in their
matrimonial journey, then he sprung
a little, but pleasing surprise on the
hostess by presenting to her, as a
gift from her husband, a ring with
a set in the shape of heart
in which was turquoise, sur
rounded by nine diamonds. He al
so presented a little baby shoe which
had been sent by friend out West,
who like the host had been married
II years but had not been blessed with
an heir, it being understood that the
one who broke the "hoodoo" would
get the other shoe. The gifts were
a. genuine surprise to the hostess but
she was equal to the emergency and
expressed her delight and appreciation
in brief but fitting terms. The occa-
sion was highly enjoyable in every
way. Those who were present were:
