DaYis last evening at 5 o'clock delivered his second daughter, Miss Addie Haven Davis, into the keeping of Mr. George Alexander Simpson, late of Yedbury, England. The clergyman whose services ere efficient iu tying the nuptial knot was Rev. Mr. Miller, of Sewickley. A sister of the bride. Miss Florence Love Davis, and a brother of the croom, Mr. Harry Simpson, were maid of honor and best man. The bridal party, to the lftniriting music of a wedding march, descended the stairway the wedding oc curred at the Davis residence on Stanton avenue and entered the parlor in the fol lowing order: The groom and best man, ma:d of honor alone and bride supported by her lather. The beauty of the spacious parlors was gieatly enhanced by the pro "use decorations of plauts and choice flowers, with an abund ance of holly, thji gave a 'Christmas effect in common with the season. The bride, a sparkling brunette, wjs clad in a handsome robe or white silk cut en traine and decollette and carried bride roses and maiden hair ferns. The pret ty maid of honor also wore white silt, but ol dancing length and more simply iashioned. The guests at the wedding aud the reception which lollowed comprised a large and brill iant assemblage, many of them coming from distant cities. A New York trip will be taken by Mr. and Mrs. Simpson previous to being "at home" to lriends after Decem ber . Kulin served the refreshments and Messrs.

Miss Nina Ramsey, of Osboru station, at 6 o'clock last evening was made the bride of Mr. Bond V. Sommerville, of Sewick ley. the assistant engineer of the Pittsburg, Tr. Wayne and Chicago Eailway. It was a home wedding, and though small, showed a perfection of detail that makes the ad jective elegant decidedly approtiriatc. The maid of honor w?s Miss Elsie Chew, of Sewicklev, and the best man Mr. G. L. Potter, of Ft. Wayne. Jlev. J. B. Shaw, pastor of the Fifty-third Street Presbyterian Church, New York City, was the officiating clergyman, and the ceremony, though of a kind that admits of but slight changes or innovations, naturally had a cosmopolitan tinge about it. An additional bit of interest, beside the usual amount that always imbues the mar riage ot a pretty girl to a popular young inau, was based upon the fact that the bride's sister, Miss Lidic, who, for the oc casion, looked scarcely less lovely than the bride, will herself on New Year's Day be led to the altar by Mr. "Will Arrott, of Osborn, who apparently was making mental notes ot the whole proceedings for future re erence. Kennedy served the wedding supper a delicious one by the way and niter sufficient time for farcnells, thehappy loouplc left for a hurried bridal trip that "vill und them back in Osborn again in' time for the second nuptials. WEDDED AT "WASHINGTON. A rittsunrg Gentleman Robs That I-lttlc Ton n of an Ornament.

At 8:30 o'clock the bridal party entered the sanctuary. The bride. Miss Frances Emma, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James B. "Wilson, looked unusually pretty, even for a bride, and as Mrs. Breading Speer, is sure to make the warm friends in this city that she leaves in Washington. Mr. Speer is Professor of Physics at the Pittsburg High School and the "son of Eev. Dr. Speer, the renowned missionary and autnor of a book on China, the field "of his labors. CUPID'S HARVEST TIME. Tliirly-Kight i'or Homes to be" Started Yesterdaj 's LI cento Itecoril. Cupid hails Christmas as his harvest time, and that the crop is worthy of the yarnering this season is evidenced by the fact that 38 love lorn swains took out permits yesterday to sever themselves from the parent tree and start a little tree of their own. "Whether it is "peace on earth, good will to men," that causes this increase in the number who decide to dally with the marriage knots, or whether it is the long winter evenings in a cozy parlor with "only two" present, matters not. The increased number of licenses come as regu larly as does Christmas, and the list grows longer year by year. To-day is looked upon as the best day of the year for the marriage license court, as a great many people want to celebrate two events in one. The rush began on Monday. A QUIET HOKE 'WEDDING. Culmination of the Engagement ot Mr. C Beislnger and 3Iiss Beringer. A home wedding last evening united Miss Clara Beringer, daughter of Mr. C. Ber inger. the real estate dealer of Fourth avenue, and Mr. Charles Eeisinger, or Se wickley. The solemn words were spoken in the presence of quite a number of the very intimate friends of the lamily, who had assembled at the pretty Beringer home at Laurel station. There were no attendants to detract from the general interest centered in and about the bride anu groom. A wedding feast served by Kennedy was enjoyed immediately alter the ceremony and the young people departed later for "a short wedding jaunt. Ot Their return they will reside at the bride's hwe, where in the future, Mrs. Eeisinger will direct the affairs of.the household in the same satisfactory mannerthat Miss Beringer has in the past.

Dancing was the order of the evening, and it was quite a late hour when the "Home, "Sweet Home" sent the participants away to dream over the pleasures of the evening.

The most severe cases, too ter. rible for description, have yielded to this medi cine when all others tailed. The greater in cludes the less and if you suffer from scrofula, salt rheum or impure blood in any form, you should take Hood's Sarsaparilla.
