THE BRAVE AT HOME
The maid who binds her warrior s
saeh
With smiles that well her pain dis-
petnbles,
Int; \^hile beneath her drooping;
lash
One starry tear-drop hangs and
trembles,
Though Heaven alone records tae
tear,
And fame shall never know hir
«lory,
Her heart has shed a drop as dear.
As e’er bedewed the field of glory.
Tne wife who girds her husoand s
sword,
Mid little ones who weep or won
der,
And bravely speaks the cheering
V’Ol Q,
What though her heart be rent
ijsunder,.
Doomed nightly in her dream.^ to
);ccr
Bolts of death around him rat
tle,
Hath vhed as sacred blood as e’er
Was Doured upon the field of oat-
tle!
The mother who conceals her grief
W’hile to her breast her son she
presses,
Then breathes a few brave words
and brief.
Kissing the patriot brow she bless
es.
With no one but her secret God
To know the pain that weighs upon
her.
Sheds holy blood as e’er the sod
Received on Freedom’s field of
honor.
—THOMAS BUCHANAN READ.

The Town Crier of Seattle, of which
Mrs. J. C. Haines is society editor, has
the following interesting account of
the wedding:
A cameo face carven in on a ground
Of that shadowy hair where the blos
soms are wound,
And the gleam of a smile, O, as fair
and as faint
And as sweet as the master^ of old
used to paint
Round the lips of their favorite saint.

IVEY'S
The poet’s description might have
been wvitten of the lovely bride, for
It aptly describes the charming appear
ance made by Miss Charlotte De Wolfe
Whittlesey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Fountleroy Whittlesey, as she
plighted her nuptial vows to Mr. Wal
ter Scott Fitz, at Trinity Parish church
at high noon, Tuesday, September
twefth, in the presence or relatives
and a large representajtive gathering
ot Seattle society, in which the bride
has been, ever since her debut, one
of its most beautiful and admired
belles. The bridegroom is a member
of a well known Boston family, a Har
vard graduate and a young business
man of North Yakima, in this state.
It was expected that Miss Whittle
sey would be a lovely bride but no
anticipation could have realized the
beautiful picture made by the bride
and her sister, as maid of honor, as
down the central aisle of the church,
reserved for the purpose by broad
white satin ribbons barring the pews.
The four ushers, Mr. Samuel L. Rus
sell, Mr. Harvey Carr, Mr. Frank
Meares and Dr. J. Tate Mason lead
the way, followed by Miss Laura Whit
tlesey, looking the personification of
youthful grace and loveliness, in pink
satin veiled with pale pink chiffon
bearing a big black velvet picture hat
with pink plumes, and carrying a large
arm bouquet of Killamey roses. Then
the beautiful bride, on the ar'n of her
father, her gown of ivory bridal satin
sweeping away from her slender,
graceful figure in a long square court
train, its great length of gleaming
white veiled by the misty tulle of her
veil, caught to her dark hair by a
wreath of orange blossoms, and fram
ing the perfect contour of the lovely
face. Her shower bouquet of valley
lilies gave the finishing touch to her
costume, its lines of simple elegance
having no other adornment save the
handsome Duchess lace that outlined
the square cut corsage with its gimpe
of tulle.
The bride’s cousin, Mr. W*alter Whit
tlesey, who was organist for the.oc-
casion, played for the entrance of the
bridal procession, the wedding chorus
from Lohengrin, and the Mendelssohn
march as they left the altar. The cere
mony was impressively performed by
the rector, the Reverand Htrbert H.
Gowen. Mr. Fitz was attended by Mr.
Lawrence Endicott, as best man.
At the reception, which took place
immediately after the ceremony at the
Whittlesey home on Federal avenue,
all was mirth and pollity. Mr. and Mrs.
Fitz, with Mrs. Whittlesey, who wore
a handsome costume of blue meteore
crepe, with a black plumed hat of vel
vet, and Miss Fitz, of Boston, sister
of the bridegroom, in white crepe, with
a black toque, received in the large
drawing room converted into a bower
of bloom by festoon of asparagus
fern, pink roses and ping sweet peas,
banked in most prodigal profusion on
mantel, over doors and windows and
massed in baskets all about the bog
room. From this room wide French
window's opened into a conservatory
where a stringed orchestra, hidden be
hind a hendge of palms and flowering
plants, played throughout the recep
tion. In the library, Miss Helen Per
kins and Mies Anne Laurie Ramsay
a garden of pink bloom. The dining
room was charming, with its color
cheme of pink, which prevailed
tLroughout the house. Here pink roses
were artistically arranged on side
board and mantel, a beautiful big
Watteau basket, its high handle tided
with a great bow of pink satin ribbon,
the exact color of the Madame Chat-
enay rose with which it was filled,
made a lovely center for the table,
with its pink candles, pink bon-bons
and handsomely decorated briday
oakes. A delicious breakfast was serv
ed and the health of the young couple
heartily drunk.
As the bride ascended the staircase
to don her going away frock, accord
ing to time honored custom, she threw
her bouquet, which was caught by
Miss Charlotte Hopkins, of New York.
To Miss Theresa Thomsen fell the
piece of bride cake that contained the
ring. The presents, which were very
numerous and handsome were arrang
ed in a room above. Mr. and Mrs. Fitz
left that afternoon for a brief wedding
journey and will be at home at North
Yakima after October tenth.

Helpless Woman
Down In Bed
A Terrible Tale of Suffer
ing and the Facts About
Mrs. Bratcher’s
Case.
Ready, Ky.—“I was not able to do
anything for nearly six months,” says
Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place,
“and was down in bed for three
months.
I cannot tell you how I suffered with
my head, and with nervousness and
womanly troubles.
Our family doctor told my husband
he could not do me any good, and
he had to give it up. We tried an
other doctor, but he did not help me.
At last, my mother advised me to
take Cardul, the woman’s tonic. I
thought it was no use, for I was near
ly dead, and nothing seemed to do
any good!, but I used eleven bottles,
and was then able to do all my work
and my own washing.
I think Cardui is the best medicine
in the world. My weight has increased,
and I look the picture of health.
I will always praise Cardui for
what it has done for me.”
Are you weak, tired, worn-out? Do^
you suffer from any of the pains pe-J
culiar to weak women? Do you suf
fer in any way like Mrs. Batcher?
If so, then take Cardui, the woman’s
tonic, for it will certainly help you.
