The doctrine laid down by the doc

But the application of the principle
to taking a woman of the 'just folks

An Irish Beauty.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. James Hunter of New York,
and is described as a blond of the
Irish type of beauty, about twenty
seven years old, of culture and educa-
ton Her husband is forty-six. She
was born in Belfast and came to New
York when only sixteen with her sis
ter Miss Anabelle Hunter, who is now
Mrs. William Thompson. Later he
parents brought the entire family over.
She has two brothers and two sisters.
For a time her father was employed
by the Metropolitan Railway company
in New York.
Mr.. Hartman is a son OF the late
Oliver Hartman and a cousin of the
late E. H Hartman. His sisters, be-
sides Mrs. ". X. Vanderbilt, ST.. are
Mrs. Stephen Olin and Mrs. Frederick

Hartman is member of the
Brook, the Meadow Brook. Tul and

one of the stockholders in the famous
Newport Casino. He had been mar

Two Other Wives.
When he married Alice Hunnewell
she was the toast of the season as the
prettiest and wealthiest girl of the
whole period.
But it was not for long. Miss May
Brady, the daughter of the late Judge
Brady of Baltimore, came over the
spirit of his dreams and became Mrs.
Hartman No. 2. She also had re-
course to the divorce court.
Such was his status when the World
war came and the millionaire an
swered the call to arms, taking the
training camp route to a commission
as major of field artillery. Among
those who found their way to the hos
pitfalls and the camps was Miss Sally
Hunter, a trained nurse.
She Was Nurse.
She was Irish. She was pretty,
with the fresh, healthy beauty that is
the heritage of the Irish maiden. Ma
jor Hartman fell i'll at Camp Taylor,
where his regiment was stationed. In
to the camp hospital came Miss
Hunter the nurse. She nursed the
officer thru a spell of influenza and
he was much attracted by her grace
and many womanly attributes

But the regiment was ordered over
seas and he went away with his COM
mapd He came back to civil life to
the ban and to society. She returned
to the task of nursing those who fell
i'll in the ordinary prOsaic way, and
their two worlds seemed as far apart
as the poles. Then Hartman fell ill
again. This time another nurse APP
peared on the scene, and the tempera-
ture was taken by one WHO was a
stranger. 1t was inconvenient for the
first nurse to serve as the banker
angel, and when the nurse asked for
relief and a substitute was sent, who

Why, Miss Sally Hunter, of course.
Hartman, out of the danger of ILL
ness. was head over ears in love. He
proposed Miss Hunter accepted.
