Hoyds Mills was honored by ono
of tho prettiest weddings In its his
tory on Wednesday, Juno 26, when
Miss Caroline Elizabeth Clark,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. E.
Clark and Garry Cleveland Myers
of Sylvan, Pa., were united in mar
riage in tho Union church, which
had been fairly deluged with ferns
and daisies, tho work of the young
people of the Sunday school.
The service was read by tho ttov.
M. S. Spear of tho Christian church,
at Dunmore, Pa. The bride was giv
en away ly her father and was at
tended by her sister, Miss Anita
Clark, who was maid of honor, and
Miss Sylvia Ashenfelter of Norris
town, Pa., as 'bridesmaid. T. Y.
Uoyd Clark was tho groom's best
man. Tho flower girl was iMlss
Elizabeth Iiryant, and Master Myron
Boyd carried tho wedding ring to
the altar.
Tho bridal party entered the
church at ono o'clock to the strains
of Wagners wedding march from
Lohengrin which was played by Miss
Aima usoDio ot Calkins. The
ushers were Messrs. Wallace Sheard,
hponcer Noble, icussoll Clark and
Robert Boyd.
Tho hrldo was attired in a whlto
messallne, veiled with marnuisette
and trimmed with Irish point-lace.
She wore a large veil caught up
with a wreath of syringas, and car
ried a shower bouquet of bride roses
and lilies of tho valley.
Tho maid of honor wore yollow
messallne with a whlto marquisette
over dress, and tho bridesmaid woro
a bluo marqulsotto over tho yellow
messallne. Tho bride's attendants
carried bouquets of daisies.
After tho ceremony, Mr. and Mrs.
Myers received their friends at tho
bride's home from which they left
at six o'clock for their wedding
tour to New York, Atlantic City and
the groom's homo in Franklin coun
ty. Mrs. Myers Is ono of Wayne
county's fairest daughters, deeply
beloved by all who know her, and
takes with hor the best wishes of a
host of friends. Hor husband Is a
young man of exemplary character
and splendid attainments, being a
graduate of Shippensburg (Normal
school, of Urslnus College, and hav
ing recently finished a courso for tho
degree of Doctor of Philosophy at
Columbia University.
Tho young couple are tho recipi
ents of many valuable and useful
gifts which show tho high esteem In
which they aro held by all their
friends.
Mr. and Mrs. Myers will bo at
homo after October 1 In Huntington,
Pa., where 'Mr. 'Myers has recently
been elected to the Chair of History
In Juniata College.
yet it is usually friends who perpet
rate the "Joke." What may bo a
joko in a small company loses its
character when everybody knows it.
A story of this sort Is not a bit
funny when put Into cold, hard
type. The newspapers mean well.
They are busy, rushed people Who
conduct them and with all their de
sire for accuracy they are sometimes
misled.
The outcome of all this ibusiness of
sending false information to the
newspapers is that someone is going
to be made to suffer dearly. Some
one is going to be made an example
of. It is going to bo harsh but it
will be just and the example set
will he one that will act as a de
terrent to those who have been hav
ing fun out of seeing the papers
print false stories.

Scranton. An Involuntary
tion in bankruptcy has been filed in
United States court, by some of tho
creditors against J. D. Williams
Bro. & Co., of this city. It is under
stood that owing to a too-rapid ex
tension of the business, this corpor
ation has become over-extended, and
it has been necessary to ask for tho
appointment of a receiver to con
serve the resources of the company
for tho best interests of tho credi
tors. It is stated that the receivers will
conduct tho business and that as
soon as tho auditors wno aro now
examining the hooks of tho company
have made a report, a compromise
or settlement will be mado with tho
creditors.
The petitioners aro IBenjamin

coal or any other business.
C. Frank Williamson, of Media,
gave an interesting talk on " News
paper Advertising." Ho said:
Advertising depends on tho
different localities. I havo
tried various ways of advertis
ing to bring business before the
public, but In tho end I always
went back to tho newspapers.
I tried circulars, personal solici
tation, and post card methods
of bringing my name before
the public, but nono was so
successful as the newspaper.
Change your advertisement
from tlmo to time and make it
attractive and people will read
it. A great deal depends upon
the advertisement Itself. I be
lieve that by advertising in
newspapers a man receives five
times as much for tho value of
tho money expended than In
any other way. Advertise and
you will be successful.

Says the Willlamsport Gazette and

and then to havo her speech restored
a year later by being struck tho sec
ond time was the astounding exper
ience of Mrs. id. 'Walter Spence,

" (Mrs. Spenco's maiden namo was
Blanche Fegley. iHer husband Is Dr.
D. Walter Spence, a former William

A Httlo more than a year ago Mrs.
Spence was in the act of closing a
window during a sovero storm when
sho was struck by lightning. So
great was the shock that she was
thrown to tho floor and was unablo
to move a muscle for weeks. In ad
dition was completely lost tho power
of speech. After a few months,
however, sho was ablo to move hor
limbs, but she could not talk, and
was under tho care of a physician
practically all tho time.
"Mr. Fegley received a telegram
tho other morning from his son-in-

speech entirely restored.' It Is not
necessary to stato that Mr. Fogley
was greatly surprised and overjoyed
