An Elastic Prize For a Horse Show Wedding.

The King Floral Co. has offered a special prize for the first couple that will get married on the court house steps during the horse show. The prize is a rubber tree, valued at $2.50. The tree will become a very nice ornament if the domestic surroundings are pleasant and the happy bride and groom will have an elastic start in life that should make it easy to raise a big family and manufacture rubber boots for the entire bunch.
