wedding than this flower -deckcd

delicate bloom the season has 10 Offer

graceful effect.
Altar of Wonders.
An improvised altar on a raised
platform was covered with a ;nagnifl-
cent cloth of gold brocadc, and was
adorned with massive gold candelabra
AT either side gold urns were filled
with Russell roses, azaleas in the pink
and deeper tone, lilies OF the valley
and hyacinths of many shades. their
delicate colors blending exquisitely.
\ tall marble pedestal stood at each
side of the altar and this was topped
with all urn similar to those that deco

The hall was abloom with Towering
manzanita, that dainty toned
blossom that abounds in the hills
about San Francisco bay in the carly
spring, and that, even more than the
masses OF bloomin the drawing room,
gave the house the effect of the out Of

Bride Was Beautiful.
Miss Frank. who was given in mar
riage by her father, made an excep-
tionally lovely bride. One of the
prettiest girls of San Francisco's S
younger set, her dainty coloring and
graceful figure never were seen to
better advantage as in her gown Of
white duchess satin. She is of the
type that combines with fair skin
brown hair and the clearest of gray
eyes, and her slenderness lent itself
well to the graceful lines of her beau
tiful gown 1t was a/Callot model Of
white duchess satin draped with CAL
lot net and trimmed with point ap-
plique lace over silver lace. 1T was
fashioned along the new princess
lines, with its tulle overdress lace held

which tied in front, the ends finishing
in long tassells of pearls The skirt
was in the modisl round length and
the court train of satin extended from
the shoulders, where it was finished in
scarf effect, and was exceptionally
long. Point applique lace adorned
the waist, through which the silver
pattern of the under lace showed. CIV
ing all effect OF much richness.
Wears a Double Veil.
Miss Franks wedding veil was a
notable feature of her costume. In
stead OF confning herself to only one
veil as with the majority of brides,
She. wore two, the first OF tuilc and
the second OF exquisite lace, the lat
ter draped over only one side OF the
tullc and falling low on the long court
train. A wreath OF orange blossoms
frcld the wells to the coiffure and
there were also sprays of these blooms
to catch the lace veil to the train.
Her bouquet was also as novel as it
was lovely, the exquisite shower of
white orchids having been held in a
