nuptial knot doubly secure.
The, bride looked lovely, robed til a beau
tiful suit of cream colored nun's vcl'lng,cut
enlraint, nnd tho groom nppenred remark,
ably well in a suit of conventional blnck.
The bridesmaids, nnd groomsmen were
dressed In suits to match in style and color
thoso of the bride nnd groom. Tho only
ornaments were neat bouquets of natural
flowers worn by each. Miss Barton carried
a very beautiful bouquet of cut flowers
that sho presented to the bride Immediately
after the ceremony.
After tho usual congratulations tho.brldal

old, the next day. Though taken entirely by
surprise, Mr. White appeared very well
pleased with this demonstration of friend
ship on the part of his neighbors and If we
may judge from his youthful appearance
and jolly manner alone, It would bo fair to
presume that forty-nlne years heuco a sur

John rendy to join in their most rollicking
games.
