INTERESTING BRIDAL PRESENTS

The gifts bestowed upon Miss
Agnes Smith, who was married to
Mr.. Lindsay Forester Tuesday ev-
ening of last week, were of especial
interest on account of their ele-
gance, their novelty and their utili-
ty. Space would not allow men
ton of each gift but no bride could
nave been remembered in more
charming ways, The brides. father
gave silly II coffee service and four
silver candle sticks with filagree
shades, the best man and his wife
set OF silver knives and forks. the
groomsmen set of silver butter
plates and spreaders, the ushers a
silver ice cream set, the business
associates of the bride groom
silver water-pitcher and there was
another silver water pitcher and
all kinds of spoons, forks, fancy
serving ladies. serving spoons, etc,
besides all kinds of silver trays
and dainty receptacles Then a
table filled with everything heart
could wish for a dining-room in cur
glass and another in etched crystal.
Then japanese trays in various de-
signs and china pieces of exquisite
patterns. One eff the dearest gifts
imaginable came from a family in
Guiding a luncheon cloth and nap
kins of snowy linen with a differ
ent design in cross stitch on each
wrought by the mother and daugh-
ter and from the father and sons a
luncheon set of Coalport China in
the pheasant design. Another friend
sent an electric stove, silver plated
with which a breakfast can be pre-
pared on the table.
One of the "cute" little gifts that
is quite novel is a door knocker
which is an oval wreath of flowers
cast in iron and then painted In
bright cOlors. The china, glass and
embroidered linen pieces were es-
pecially delectable. There was only
one clock in evidence and one very
handsome cloissonne plaque AL
together this array of gifts could
not be improved upon and even a
good Christian could not resist COW
citing most of them.
