At the residence of Melvin F.

wedding on the morning of Sept 2nd
when Miss Myrtle f. White became
the wife of Joseph Frank Martin.
The marriage took place at seven
o'clock in the morning under the
electric light, in the tastefully ar
ranged reception room, where the
ring service was very impressiyely
performed by Rev. +. G. Davis. in the
presence of relatives and invited
friends of the family. After the
wedding breakfast, the bride and
groom left on the morning train for
Marblehead, Mass, where Mr.. Martin
is employed, and where they will
make their new home. Both are
well known in the village of Nor

ity. He has many things to look
after, and watches the time for the
arrival and departure of the mails
very carefully. If he didn't follow the
regular schedule, things would be in
pretty fix. But he knows the value
of regularity and takes good care to
get the mails off on time. In mat

your habits regular, and when the
stomach, liver or bowels need help, be
sure to take the right remedy in time.
Neglect to do this makes matters
