STINEMETZ & SON, Hetters and Furriers, 1237 Pa. ave. RIPANS TABULES. A gentleman of a methodical habit, who ha. adopted the practice of retaining a copy of every prescription issued by his family physician, became interested as time went on to note that the same ingredients were pretty certain to be prescribed at some point of the treatment of every case. For a poor appetite, or a sore throat, for restlessness which disturbed his baby’s sleep, and for troubles which beset the aged grandparents, the favorite remedy was always turning up, although slightly modified from time to time and used often in conjunction with others. One day our friend happened to observe that the formula of a certain advertised remedy was identical with the lateSt prescription he had received from his own physician, and in some surprise he stated the case to him. The family doctor, after listening to what he had to say, replied: “The case is about this way: Whenever there is a disturbance of the functions of the body, no matter of what nature, it is pretty certain to be accompanied by a derangement of the cligestive organs. When they are ail right the patient gets well. That particular formula that yor have observed me to write more and more frequently is the result of an age of careful experiment, and is pretty generally agreed upon now by all educated physicians who keep up with the times. The discovery of the past few years of the means of reducing every drug to a powder and compressing the powders into little lozengers or tablets, or tabules if you prefer, whick will not break or spoil, or lose their goed qualities from age, if protected from air and light, is the explanation of how it has come about that this prescription is now for sale as an advertised remedy. It is the medicine that nine people out of ten need every time they need any, and I have no doubt that making it so easy to obtain, so carefully prepared, and withal so cheap, will tend to actually prolong the average of human life during the present generation.” Ripans Tabules are sold by ¢ Mf the price (50 cents a box) is Gdemical Company, Ni Bample vial, 10 cer not-20d, sts, or by mail ‘nt 10 the Ripans . 10 Spruce st., New York.

The Duke of Marlborough spent the last Sunday of his bachelorhood quietly as the guest of the British embassy. He was a participant in the afternoon promenade on Connecticut avenue, in company with a stalwart member of the embassy. Today he will be in New York, to take his part in the rehearsal, and to attend the dinner given by Mrs. Brockholst Cutting in honor of the bridal party. Col. and Mrs. William Jay will entertain the duke, the bride-elect and her mother at a large dinner tomorrow night. Wednesday is the wedding day. The floral decorations of St. Thomas’ Church will extend from vestibule to chancel. A vista of pink and white blossoms will be produced by placing on the ends of the pews huge floral stanchions of palms and pink and white roses. The columns will be banded with pink and white chrysanthe- mums, the dome will be hung with garlands of foliage and flowers, the ends reaching to the chancel, the galleries and right and left transepts. The #ix columns supporting the dome will be wound with sashes of pink and white chrysanthemums and feathery ferns. Cosmos garlands will festoon the gallery railings and pendant from these will be or- chids. Across the chancel will be three lofty arches of Gothic design composed of as- paragus fern as frame work to the thou- sends of bride roses and lilies to be used. The chancel rail will be concealed by a treilis of lilies of the yaliey, while the two gates will be composed of farleyencis fern and white calleyea, an exceptional thing, owing to the scarcity of this flower. At the back of the chanc2! a mass of palm foliage will spring from the grourd, and flowers, white and pink only. Banked against the choir stalls are to be parterres of standard roses and growing pink lilies, graduating to tke tiled floor and edged with white and pink Alpine violets. Taking the place of the choir curtains, and only partially concealing the two organs, will be erected three arches on either side, composed of white and pink roses, and all sinking behind a grill work of chrysanthemums and cut palm follage. The columns flanking the organs will be entwin- ed with sprays of climbing vines, springing from bushes of roses growing at their base. In the pulpit a century old palm will be placed, while around the side will be gar- lands of pink orchids and maidenhair fern, with hanging crates of farleyencis fern, making a drapery touching the fioor. Mr. William K. Vanderbilt will drive fro: the Metropolitan Club to 72d street to join iis daughter, in whose carriage he will Crive to the church. She will enter with her father, and the bridal procession will proceed m the conventional form, the bridesmaids preced- ing the bride and her father. Fishop Littie- john will perform the marriage c2remony and Bishop Potter will pronounce the bene- diction. 5 The bridesmaids will be Miss Winthrop, daughter of Mr. Buchanan Winthrop; Miss Evelyn Burden, daughter of Mr. I. Town- send Burden; Miss Morton, eldest daughter of Goy. Morton; Miss Elsa Bronson, daugh- ter of Mr. Frederic Bronson; Miss Daisy Post, daughter of Mr. William Post; Miss Katharine Duer, daughter of Mr. ‘William Duer, and a granddaughter of the OLS wit, Willlam R. Travers; Miss May Goelet, daughter of Mr. Ogden Goelet, and Miss Laura Jay, a daughter of Col. William Jay. The usters whom the duke has chosen to assist him at the wedding are very well known in New York society, and have of- ten assisted at famous weddings. They are, without exception, members of the Knick- erbocker Club, at which club the Duke of Marlborough has been a frequent visitor since his arrival in this country. They are Messrs. F. Brockholst Cutting, Richard T. Wilson, jr., Reginald Ronalds, Herbert_D. Robbins and Hamilton Wilkes Cary. The Duke of Marlborough’s best man will be his cousin, the Hon. Ivor Churchill Guest, the eldest son of Lord Wimborne. His mother is the eldest sister of the late Duke of Marlborough. Young Guest is a fine- looking man, of tall and commanding pres- ence and just about the age of the duke. The bridesmaids’ gowns, although simple in design, are exquisite. The: skirts, of heavy ivory satin, cut very full, are without trimming other than long sashes of ciel blue satin ribbon, which reach nearly to the lower edg2. The bodices, male also of the same rich ivory satin, are fimshed with very full, long sleeves and girdled with a broad ceinture of the ciel blue satin. The prettiest feature, however, is a Marie An- toinette fichu of fine cream lace, which cov- ers the shoulders and crosses surplice fash- fon In front to meet the girdle. This lace will be caught in front with the turquoise souvenirs of the Duke of Marlborough. En- circling the throat inside of the slightly “v" shaped neck will be worn a broad band of blue velvet, clasped in turn with several rows of pearls. The broad-brimmed hats are the more picturesque, in that they are made of a deep, rich shade .of royal blue velvet, trimn- med with ciel blue. The six ostrich plumes fastened at one side are ciel blue in color, as are the large coauilles of satin ribbon which fill in the back of the caught-up brim, also the twist and rosette of soft chiffon which encircle the crown. The chief beauty of the wedding gown, of course, is the exquisitely fine point lace flouncing which covers the entire front of both skirt and bodice. The lace which will adorn the bride's veil is an exquisite piece of point d'Angleterre, and Miss Vanderbilt will be of the third gen- eration to wear it. This lace was first worn, when a bride, by her maternal grandmotier, Mrs. Murray Smith, who was a Miss Deshi of Mobile, Ala., a member of a distinguished French Hugugnot family. Mrs. Vanderbilt also wore the lace at the time of her wed- ding, and the beautiful flounce which has been attached to the wedding gown ts as near a reproduction of the old lace as could be manufactured in the most famous house in Brussels, where it was found impossible to copy the pattern exactly, as the art which fashioned the old piece is lost to this world. So skillfully is this lace adjusted to the gown, despite the fact that the flounce crosses the skirt horizontally four times, trims the front of the corsage and falls in triple revers over the shoulders, it has not been cut. Peeping from underneath the low- est flounce is a narrow border of orange blos- soms. ‘The court train, five yards in length, is, as has already been told, a marvel of exquisite embroidery all about the edge, extending up both sides to the shoulders. The finest of seed pearls, mingled with others of varying size, are used to form small rose leaves, and these are growing, apparently, from a thread-like vine of silver, tied at thre2-inch intervals in a true lover's knot. _ A long spray of orange blossoms, which trails over one side of the skirt, and tne smaller one of the same flowers, fastened on the front of the corsage. are beautifully fine. Mrs. Vanderbilt's gown will be of ciel blue satin, with flaring skirt just a little longer than walking length. Around the edge of the skirt will be attached a border of Rus- sian sable. The waist will have the effect of a tight-fitting coat, with cream colored point applique sides, which show a waist of chiffon embroidered in green pearls. A sable collar and shoulder piece complete the coat effect. A lace and silver capote, with pale blue aigrette, will complete this elegant cos- tume. What are usually called the bride’s sou- venirs will in this Instance be presented, after the English custom, by the bride- groom. The souvenirs.chosen by the Duke of Marlborough are breastpins of the purest turquoise. It was first thought that the Marchioness of Blandford would be able to come over for her son's wedding, when it was expected she would be. accompanied by her daughters, Lady Lillian Spencer Churchill and Lady Nora Spencer Churchill. It was found, how- ever, that it would not be possible for them to come, so they will be represented by Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British ambassador. A decided feature of the wedding cere- monies will be the music. The church quar- tet‘choir, with a large chorus, will give a concert for one hour before the ceremony. Immediately after the wedding ceremony and the signing of the marriage regist. the bridal party will be driven to Mrs. Van- derbilt’s house, No. 24 East 72d street. where, after a brief reception and congratu- lations to the duke and duchess, the wed: ding breakfast will be served. The guests for this breakfast will be limited to one hundred people, among whom will be mem- bers of the diplomatic corps, the officiating clergy and bishops, the members of the bri- dal party and the members of their imme- diate families. The guests will be seated at small tables in the large dining room and the adjacent hall. The table for the bridal party will, of course, be the center of at- traction, and will undoubtelly be placed at the south end of the dining room. This table will be long and oval in shape, and its floral decorations will ccnsist of orchids. lilies and other flowers appropriate to such an occasion, while the table service will he of gold. No formatity wiil be observed in seating the guests at the other tables, of which there will be ten. The wedding cake boxes are covered with white moire, and on it will appear, under the ducal coronet, the monozram “C. M."" (Consuelo-Marlborough). After the wedding breakfast the Duke and Duchess of Marl- borough will leave at once for the Vander- bilt country place, Idle Hour, at Oakdale, L. I. At this beautiful country place Miss Vanderbilt passed most of her childhood. Idle Hour is a house of composite architec- ture, surrounded by beautiful grounds, and overlooks Great South bay. It is an easy drive from Baysnore or Islip. The stablet ere well stocked, and there is everything tc make life attractive and charming. The date of their sailing for the continent of Europe has not been anounced by any of the family or friends, but their Geparture is not likely to be long delayel. The New York Herald gives the list of the invited guests—the President and Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. and Miss Bonaparte, Sen- ator and Mrs. Brice, the Misses Brice, Senator and Mrs. Cameron, the Italian am- bassador and Baroness Fava, Mr. H. C. Bax-Ironsides, Judge and Mrs. John Davis, Miss Davis, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Endicott, Mr. and Mrr. Frank Riggs are among those asked from this city. The engagement of Miss Regina Barbour, daughter of Mrs. James L. Barbour of Far- ragut square, to Senor Don Julio Rengifo, charge d’affaires of the Colombian legation, which has been known for several months to their intimate circle of friends, is now an- nounced. The wedding has been set for Wednesday, November 20, at the new St. Matthew's Church, but will be a very quiet event, of which only a family party will be witnesses. Mr. Eastman of the legation of Chile will attend the groom as best man,and Miss Annie Barbour will be maid of honor for her sister. After a brief out-of-town trip, the couple will return to this city to reside. Miss Barbour is the youngest daughter of the late James L. Barbour, who, until bis death, less than two years ago, was among the best known of Washington business men. During the past year his widow ard her younger daughters have lived on Farra- gut square. The bride-elect is net only a handsome girl, but is endowed with every grace of mind as well as person. She was educated at the Sacred Heart Convent in Paris, has traveled extensiv in Europe with her mother and sisters, and is an ac- complished linguist. Senor Rengifo is well and favorably known among his colleagues in the diplomatic corps. He has been in charge of the Colombian legation ever since he came here five years ago, as the last minister, Mr. Hurtado, being also accredited to several European capitals, has been ab- sent from here almost continuously. Senor Rengifo belongs to a prominent family of Colombia, and ts a general in the army. The wedding of Mr. George Laurance Wilkinson and Miss Adele Enloe, daughter of ex-Congressman Enloe of Tennessee, brief mention of which has been made in these columns, was a brilliant social event at Jackson, Tenn., October 30. Mr. Wilkin- son is a prom‘nent young Washingtonian, an active member of the Baptist Church, an alumnus of the law department of Co- lumbian University and one of the ex- aminers of the patent office. His bride has been greatly admired for her beauty as well as pleasing manners, and was a belle in society during her parents’ residence here the last two years. The groomsmen were Messrs. C, P. Herndon of this city, Robert T. Lindsey of Jackson, Dr. Jere L. Cook and B. A. Enloe, jr. The bridesmaids were the Misses Grace Arrington, Hattie Davis, Grace Duke and Florence Skoffing- ton. Miss Fontine Enloe was maid of honor for her sister. The bride was es- corted in church by her father and was superbly gowned in white satin trimmed with chiffon and pearl passamenteries. Her tulle veil was held by a tiara of diamonds and bride roses formed her bouquet. Mr. George C. French of Kansas City, Mo., was best man, and Rev. H. B. Johnston, pastor of the Methodist Church where the cere- mony took place, officiated. A reception followed at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Enloe, after which the young couple started for their wedding trip, the early part of which they will spend at Atlanta. They will be several weeks traveling in the south before coming here, when they will make a visit of some weeks with Mr. Wil- kinson, sr., at his residence, 1526 K street, before taking up their residence at the Woodment Flats. A very enjoyable surprise party was tend- ered Capt. W. W. Mills at his residence, Maryland avenue northeast, on Friday evening, by the members of Liberty Lodge, No. 8 I. O. G. T., the occasion being the birthday of Capt. Mills, and also Miss Bertha Kennedy, both active members in this organization. During the evening the chief templar, Mr. A. J. Kennedy, in be- half of the lodge, presented Capt. Mills with a handsome silver-mounted cane as a token of their best wishes and kindest re- gards.
