Mr. and Mrs. Chris Hofstetter returned to Fort Wayne this noon after attending to business here. Mrs. Margaret Meibers and granddaughters, Jeanette Clark ami Rose Tonnelier, spent the afternoon in Ft. Wayne. By a majority of 18 votes Wabash voted to remain saloonless Wednesday.

Montgomery of Fort Wayne arrived in the city tins afternoon to participate in the installation service of Rev. J. C. Hanna at the Presbyterian church this evening. Mrs. Tipton Budd is carin’ fer Miss Fawn Lippincut's rubber tree while she's spendin' th’ day in Morgantown After all it's “what people might think” that keeps th’ grass beaten down on th’straight an’narrow path —Abe Martin. A good many farmers tn Adams county who take jride in keeping up their farms and barm buildings ougnt to have their names painted in big letters on their buildings so that peo pie passing along the highway can know to whom to give credit. Such a plan would be an incentive to neighbors to take more care in making their farms attractive.

Miss Jean Butler returned to her home in Huntington this morning after attending the Lutz-Smith wedding. Something new in uh safety first rule has been posted by the Pennsylvania railroad. Passenger trainmen in the future must remain on cars until the trains come to a fuM stop. There must be no jumping off at itatlons while they are in motion. For a long time it has been the custom of trainment to open the vestibule platforms and when a train reaches a station to Jump off. Passengers anxious to reach their home or hotel frequently follow the trainmen and jump off before the train stops. Accidents have happened as a result. The new order insists that vestibules bo kept closed until the trains come to a full stop. One of the small economies of the B. & 0. is the saving of'envelopes. On heavy manila envelopes there >s printed on the face twelve diperent spaces for addresses, so that officials may use a new space each time by crossing out the previous address and forwarding the packet to another official. A B. & O. official exhibited an envelope of this kind, which it is estimated, traveled 10,000 miles and has carried twelve communications between officials of the railway system. There is printed at the uppper left hand corner, “do not seal unless absolutely necessary. Use one square for address in each case. Do not roll. When empty retnvn to stationery department.”

Somebody lias said that the eyes of a child are able to give to the young brain all the knowledge that it needs. Pictures are what the child really needs. Where words will mean nothing to them, they will instantly grasp the meaning of a picture and the thought expressed is permanently photographed on their mind. Children soon learn to love the Bible, which is now being distributed by the Daby Democrat, for it is literally filled with pictures from cover to cover. These are not ordinary embellishments such as are usually found in so-called illustrated Bibles, but each picture is specially drawn with a thought behind it —the dominant idea being to make plain the particular verse which the picture accompanies. Think what this means to the “grown-ups” as well as the children! Mrs. George W. Widdifleld, wife of a prominent Columbia City merchant and landowner, was removed from the Lutheran hospital at Fort Wayne to her home Wednesday afternoon. having submitted to an operation for the removal of a handful of nails from her stomach. Several of the nails were the ordinary square corner iron variety while the other ones were wire nails, about forty in number. The operation was a success and it is believed the patient will recover. Mrs. Widdifleld swallowed the nails about a year ago, anil that none of them lodged in her throat and choked her to death in considered no less remarkable than the fast that she was able to live a vear with comparatively no discomfort and finally was able to undergo the ordeal of having them removed.

All were lovely in dainty evening gowns, in rainbow effect. Rev. Jay C. Hanna, of the Presbyterian church, tlie bride's pastor, proceeded from the den off of the living room to the altar in the parlor, accompanied by the groom, Mr. Fred Rice Smith, and the best man, Mr. Albert Sellemeyer, faultlessly attired. The bridai party descending Hie stairway, was lead by little Miss Mary Louise Vail, carrying the ring on i white satin pillow. She was a dainty little miss in white voile and moline, with pink rose bud trimmings, wth a large butterfly of moline at the bacty. Then came the little Hower girls, Catherine Smith, niece of the groom, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harve Smith; and Virginia Hite, cousin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Hite.

The bride came last, leaning on the arm of her father, Attorney Clark J Lutz. She was girlishly beautiful, m her lovely bridal gown, made simply but most becomingly. It was fashioned of white satin, clouded with embroidered white net, falling in soft folds that glistened through the silvery mist of her long veil, that fell from her head, where it was caugiit cap effect with orange blossoms. The high neck and long sleeves of the gown were modest as becomes a bride/ and the over jacket of white net added a very modist touch to the gown. The net skirt in round length was edged with loops of white satin ribbon, caught with White rose buds. Bride’s roses and lilies of the vail?” formed the bouquet She carried. She made a verly lovely bride, as charming in appearance as she is lovely by nature. The Rev. Jay C. Hanna read the ring ceremony service and a beautiful | prayer was given by the Rev. D. T.

A beautiful arrangement of pink and white roses in a gilt Shepherd? s basket, with tulle bow and rosebuds on the handle, filled the center of the j table, outlined with a tracery of smi-j lax. Pink candles in crystal sticks lighted the ends, and place car Is | were in Aeolian harp form, twined with white rcses. Favors were white I lace baskets of little candies, whose gilt handles were tied with tulle and hosebuds. The little folks of the party were given places at a little table | similarity arranged.
