She was joined at the alta® by the groom and his best man, Mr. | Kenneth McDonald, of this city. Dur- ing the ceremony Mrs. Waldo softly sang “You,” which was very sentl- ental and beautiful. / 'After thé ceremony, a ' wedding breakfast was served at the home of Mrs. Mercer, which all present much enjoyed. The couple then came through in a car to this city, where they boarded the train for Palm Beach, where they will'make Lakeland, and is a very talented and ¢harming young woman. The groom has_made Lakeland his home for a pumber of years and is. popular among a large circle of friends, who extend heartiest congratulations and good wishes. eivie From Clouds to Pigsty. Weddings are an unending source of interest, comment and philosophy. Many young people seek novelty in getting married, but soon find it the same old thing. Recently, a romantic couple were married in a balloon and went on @ sky-journey for a honey- moon trip. The resplt is thus told hy an exchange: “Miss Violet Dove and Dr. Milo E. Hartman were married recently in Kansas City. ' They wanted a ‘dig- ferent’ wedding—and they had it. They were united in the holy bonds while standing in the basket of one ot the balloons which were starting in the great elimination’ race. Asthe preacher sadd ‘man and wife!’ the great gasbag—we refer here to the halloon-—was. cut loose and shot up jnto cloudtand. At the end of a few short hours; obeying the law of gray- jtation, they descended, and—sad to relate instead of alighting in some sylvan glen haunted by fays and dryads, they landed in a hog pen! “So many weddings are like that! It wasn’t €o very ‘different” after all. They start in the unstable basket of a balloon, and they soar for a short time into the cloudland of ecstacy. The glouds aré beautiful, but they are much " more agreeable when looked at from a distance than when used for purposes of navigation. For one thing, they are damp. They are ajso cold. ~They chill the warm and nerous enthusiasms which thrill 'thase standing in the basket before the word is given, ‘Turn her loose!’ The Wdampness makes the balloon ‘heavier. -The gas of courtship leaks out. The law of gravitation pulls down toward earth, And when the earth of common life is reached, so many of the poor creatures find themselves in the pigsty of the di- vorce court! “The cloudland of the honeymoon should be a pgrt of the life of every boy and girl. But can't we all do something to make their landing oh common earth Where people work or and cleaner? The comifig down is the crisis! And the mutual confidence and prust, and the characters that make trust and confidence inevitable' arc, after all, the things that insure against the pig-pen finale.” 0 . & for the lining? vised it, and it gives a much more lacy effect.” their future home. ‘joy of the modern enthusiast of fresh "The bride is o former teacher of | if, and hostesses with tree-shaded LAND, FLA., AUG. 22, 1912. ST v : ines’ Expensive Materials Are “Not a Necessity or Even of the Best Worin, ‘, The girl whose skilled fingers add the dainty touches to her wardrobe, instead of paying for them ready made, may find the experience-of 2 sister needle woman valuable in pre- venting a bad mistake. An ambitious little maiden had just purchased some handsome plain cream silk net for a guimpe with sleeves and was turning away to seek the counter where. chif- fon for lining it could be purchased when a friend at her elbow remarked: “Why don’t you just use plain cream colored cotton net of a fine quality My dressmaker ad- No sooner said than done. The cot- ton net was purchased and carried home, and was cut out exactly the same as was the silk net. The guimpe was an entire success, so far as ap pearance went. It fitted well, ‘and had a very good éifect with the cos- tume of ‘cream colored cloth. But it had not been worn three times when its' owner saw, with dismay, that the edges of the silk net, at arm’s eye, at elbgw. and where it joined the collar, were fraying out, inch lengths of the heavy silk thread standing out from the goods in every direction, though she had allowed ample at the seams to prevent any such thing. On examining it, she discovered that | while the silk net is firmly woven, and will ‘not stretch perceptibly, net of cotton is quite the opposite in weave, and stretches decidedly. It had stretch- ed, in thig case, putting all the strain on the silk net, which had yielfled “all along the line” It had to be darned down on the cotton net, with sewing silk, and little tucks had to be taken in the cotton net to keep even that darning from giving out. HAVE THE MEAL IN THE OPEN For Warm Weather Nothing Is More Enjoyable, and It May Be Made Most Pleasant. ! The alfresco 11eal in summer is the gardens, are often searching for some novel way of entertaining their guests out of doors. An effective luncheon or dinner may be arranged beneath a tree by the simple method of build- ing a circular shelf around the trunk, which will serve as a table. Chinese lanterns and appropriate flags may decorate the tree. Miniature baskets containing flowers can be sus- pended from the tree, and each guest who is asked to take ome of these flowers will find a corresponding bloom at his or her plate. The shelf should be massed with floral decorations, such as sweet peas and appropriate green- ery. 1f the meal is to be a cold lunch, the hanging baskets can be filled with SIMPLE LETTER RAC MOST USEFUL CONTRIVANCE TO Properly Arranged, It Shows at a Glance Just What the Obligations of Correspondence Are and How to Meet Them. | Our sketch shows a simple, neat and | easily made letter rack for the hall. For the foundation a piece of board about 14 inches in length, six and a half inches in width, and half an inch in thickness must be procured, and the corners rounded with a sharp knife, + This board is then covered with silk or any other suitable material, folded in plaits, so that it forms a series of pockets, turned -over the edges and tacked down securely at the back, Diagram A at the right hand side of the sketch shows a section of the material and indicates the manner in €= 14 tNCHES —> which the silk should be folded so that it forms pockets when stretched tightly across the wood. The edge of the board can afterwards be finish off with ornamental braid and tin brass-headed nails driven in at inter- vals, Two small picture rings are screw- ed into the upper edge for suspending the rack from nails in the wall. In the rack in the sketch, four pockets are shown, but any. number can be ar- ranged in the same manner if a piece of board of longer length is used, and it is a good idea, when “bossible, to make a pocket for each member of the household and work his or her initials upon it, so that by glancing at the rack any particular person may see at once for whom it contains letters without having to examine each let- ter geparately, a thing which always has to be done when letters for dif- ferent people are placed in a rack mix- ed together. \ appetizing sandwiches, stuffed eggs, and other delicacies. Little baskets of strawberries with sugar and cream should be found ‘at each place, and each individual hostess will use her ingenuity to devise some novelty in serving the food she offers to her guests, WALKING SUIT Jack and Bean, AL “Lord St. Levan owns that roman- tically beautiful Cornish , Bk Michael's Mount.

One of the very best patterns for an fronholder is a little boat-shaped af- fair made of white linen lined with | white felt and stitched around the edge with red sateen. This holder is folded double, the material cut exactly in the shape of a small boat, with rounded ends. By having the ends rounded and stitched, the holder can not slip off the iron.
