When Manners

BEECKMAN
Wedding Invitations

I am to be married next
month at an informal church
wedding. In order to make the
expenses of the wedding as lit
tie as possible, would it be cor
rect to send out written invita-
tions instead of the formal en-
graved ones? If so, how should
such an invitation be worded?
The marriage will take place
in the morning and will be fol-
lowed by a wedding break
fast. H.
Since your wedding is to be
an informal one, the invita-
lions, to be consistent with this
1nformality, should be informal
ones. Formal engraved invita-
lions indicate to the gueStS-to-
be that the wedding is to be
formal.
1 like best to have the brides
mother write these informal
invitations, since she is the
hostess of the occasion and one
expects to be invited by the
hostess. Also this form gives
the right impression of we'll
placed social judgment, the
mother inviting the guests to
the daughters wedding.
The invitation reads:
Dear Mary:
Jane and Edmond are to be
married on Tuesday, the first
of December, at an informal
wedding at twelve o'clock in
the Main Church, and we all
very much want you and Tom
with us at the ceremony. And,
after the ceremony, we are
having a wedding breakfast at
our home, and we want you
both with us for this, too. You
will come, won't you? We want
to have the relatives and close
friends with us for this i'm
portant-to-us day.
Dearest love to you both.
Affectionately,

Bridal Bouquet

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
In a wedding does the best
man buy the flowers for both
the maid of honor and the
bride, or for just the maid of
honor. If so, does the bride
groom buy the brides flowers?
F..
The best man does not buy
the flowers for either the bride
or any of her attendants. The
bridegroom usually buys the
bridal bouquet, but the brAhe's
family may do this. The flow.
ers for the bridal attendants
are brought by the brides
family.

Children to Consider

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have cried so much that I
can hardly see to write you this
letter. Lately I made the dis
covery that my husband has
been unfaithful, and that the
woman in the case is my best
friend.
My brother and mother both
advised divorce. But when I
suggested coming to their homes
till matters were settled, neither
thought it would be convenient
to take me.
I have not accused my hus-
band, but I am convinced he
knows I have discovered his in
fidelity. He has tried to be
very tender and has offered to
take me away on a trip. I have
refused to go, or to tell him
what is the matter. We have
two children.
DISILLUSIONED.
You were very wise not to
rush to your husband with &C.
cusations when you discovered
his infidelity. It would have
been impossible to recall the
bitter words which you would
have been tempted to say, and
which would have made recon.
Citation more difficult.
Friends are much more ready
with advice than actual assist
ance when it comes to a ques-
ton of breaking up a home.
This you've already experienced
in the case of your own family.
Often, when a woman takes a
tragedy, as you have done, with
out threats or bitter recrimina-
lions, the other woman loses by
contrast.
There is the question Of your
child to consider. If you'll
take my advice, you'll give your
husband another trial.

Vampire Steals
Savings and
Husband
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Famous Authority On
LoUe and Marriage

LoOe ana Marriage
Dear Miss Fairfax:
When we were first married,
we started little store to make
both ends meet. I put my saw
ings into this and waited on it
weekdays and holidays.
My husband was engaged in
another line of business. We
have two children, and when
they were old enough they
waited on the store, too.
I never thought of having my
name put in the deed to this
property when we were able to
buy the store, because I had so
much confidence in my hus-
band.
Now, another woman has got
hold of him and I am likely to
lose the thing for which have
worked the better part of my
life.
I have thought of appealing
to this woman, but I am in
doubt. DISTRESSED WIFE.
If the woman belongs to the
vampire type, an appeal to her
would be about as successful as
a turkeys appeal to the farmer
round Thanksgiving time.
Consult good lawyer-the
best you can afford-and send
me a stamped, self-addressed
envelope. I may be able to
direct you to some free legal aid.

TAX RATE TO
Be SLASHED
County to Cut Levy at Least
"a Cents on Each 500
of Property.

The Marion county tax rate for
1885 will be reduced at least "a cents
on each 500 of taxable property,
according to indications from
county council members now in
session at the courthouse pairing the
budget requests of the various Of
ficers to meet the tax decrease.
The new levy will be between 30
and 80 cents as compared with cur
rent rate of Sc cents. Taxpayers in
all nine townships will pay lower
rates, according to budgets tenta-
lively agreed upon. The council
formally will adopt the budget and
lev at meeting Sept. 3.
The proposed county budget as
advertised calls for total rate OF
1855 cents, including 288 cents for
the general fund rate, II cents for
the sinking fund rate and 2.75 for
the tuberculosis hospital fund rate.
1t represents reduction of 12.5
cents under the current total rate,
and councilmen have indicated that
they will cut the proposed rate II
cents.
To accomplish this, they will cut
at least cents from the general
fund rate and cents from the
sinking fund levy Reduction of the
sinking fund rate will result from
refunding several bond issues that
mature next year
The tax rate reduction will be
made despite a decrease of more
than $4,000, 100000 in the assessed
valuation of taxable property in the
county and despite requested budget
increases totaling about 100000
This year, the county tax rate
total provided for collection of
$2,844, 1858 by taxation and the
1885 levy and budget provides for
collection of $2,626,945 through tax
alton. This sum will be reduced
several hundred thousand dollars
by the council, it was indicated.
The estimated tax collection de-
linquency for next year will be set
at between 5 and 7 per cent.
Proposed rates for seven town.
ships for next year were announced
yesterday. The proposed levies with

Jim WATSON TO
SUPPORT TICKET
Ex-senator to Stump State,
Editors Told: Lands
Flags President.
BY JAMES DOSS
Times STAFF Writer

LAKE WAWASEE, Ind, Aug ID
Sunny JIM" that distinguished
Republican political character, bet
ter known as ex-senator James Eli
Watson. is coming back to his old
home state and stump it in the in
terestS of the party that kept him IN
the United States Senate for years.
This information was impaired
here last night to members of the
Indiana Republican Editorial Asso-
citation at the Sphinx Wawasee hotel
for their annual summer outing, by
Don Irwin, Republican state chair
man.
The inference, of course, is that
since ex-senator Watson is going
to unloOse his geneality from the
stump. that all is well, within the
somewhat disrupted Republican
ranks.
This was not quite borne out by
the fact that last night Frederick
Lands, congressional nominee from
the Second district, stole the show
from the incumbent Senator Arthur
r. Robinson, who is scheduled to
deliver his keynote address tonight.
Mr.. Lands went him one better
by making some very pointed re-
marks about President Franklin D.
Roosevelt and since Mr. lands is
the bellwether of the Republican
candidates and the one most likely
TO be elected. his remarks were con-
Strued as an indication that his col
leagues would follow his example.
There are not as many Republic
an editors here as the editorial
association expected, but many more
were expected to arrive this after
noon.
The announcement that former
Senator Watson would take the
stump for the party. including, of
course. his political foe. Sem
atOr Robinson, was the most inn
pOrtant news of the first day of the
editorial outing.
