WED AT ST. JOE.

/R oss Reed, the 17-year-old* son bf Mr. and Mrs. Mark Reed of west of town, and Miss Bessie Pauliis, 17-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Philip Paulus of Newton tp., made a qui?t getaway Saturday and a few hours later landed in St. Joseph, Mich., where the age question cuts little figure in the matrimonial line and the marriage ceremony is performed “while you wait.” They got one of the always in stock marriage ceremonies performed and returned home Monday as happy as two meadow larks on a June morning. The old folks did not like it very w r ell on account of the youth of the couple, but they will be forgiven and will become older in tipie. Both are excellent young people and come from good families. The Democrat joins their many friends jn extending congratulations.
