In view of this condition of affair, the fot m-l announcement that there will be a ! Republican In the field In the person Of Hon. Henry Clay llvaim Is of more than usual interest.

Mlse Helen Rhyne, sister of the bride, was maid of honor and Miss Georgia Lowe was bridesmaid. The best man was Mr. L. P. White, of Philadelphia, Pa. A few minutes before the appointed hour, the ushers gathered In the din ing hall to awaiit the coming of the rest of the party. The arrangement of the home was such that the three large rooms could be thrown in one. I The dining hall and library had been artistically decorated In evergreens and potted plants. The parlor, where the ceremony took place, was a vision of loveliness. The color scheme was white and green and the effect was alto gether pleasing. White bunting had been placed upon the walls, which were covered with sprigs of holly. Ex tending from the dining hall to the par lor was a white cloth walk-way which stretched up to the very altar. Along this were pedestals, draped in -holly, which marked the way. 1 he altar was arranged in the parlor a'cove. and fronted the three rooms.

Just be fore this Improvised altar the cei-e- monj took place While the party was gathering Miss Dora Allen Sitter. sang sweetly the se- 1 lection entitled "Ixive" from Mendels sohn s spring song. As the bride de scended the broad stairs, Mrs. W. G Roger played the beautiful wedding march from Lohengrin. At the same moment, Rev. Mr. Moger presented himself at the altar and the first of 1 he ushers- stepped forward. Colonel James DulTy and Mr. C.

Jr. .Miss Georgia Lowe, bridesmaid, came next, Vielng followed by Mr. B. J. Hoff man, a brother of the groom, and Mr. .1. R. Craig. Miss Helen Rhyne, maid of honor, preceded the groom, who was attended by his bet man, Mr. L. P. White. Little Augusta Cannon follow ed bearing the ring. The bride, rest ing her hand lightly on the arm of her fill her, marched through the aisle formed by the ushers and approached tTic altar where the groom was wait ing. Together they stood while the of ficiating minister pronounced the words that made them man and wife. The ceremony over, the assembled guests pressed forward to wish for the newly wedded coufilc all that Is best In life. All then repaired to the din ing hall where delicious refreshments were served. Later Mr. and Mrs. Hoff man left for Charlotte, from whlch K)int they boarded the Southern for Palm Beach. Fin... where they will spend their honeymoon. They will be nt home In the Clinton Apartments In Philadelphia after the first of April. The bride was dressed In a hand em-' broidetcd gown of radla silk.

Were taken from ma, and I believe that God, aent this af fliction upon me to check me In my sinfulness and drinking; yet, although I had the prayers of a dear, good mother going up to God continually for my restoration from the drink habit, Uiero seemed no help for me. I keot on drlnklna until 17. when I got on a spree that lasted nearly two weeks, I came home very muon Jaded from the effects Of the apreo. The next morning I walked up to my brother'a nearby, to see n 1 couio get a drink of whiskey. I found that he. had none, and -while sitting talk ing to him I became very elek and started to go into an adjoining room, when I fell to the floor in a swoon, if I had toen alone I believe I would have died, but by God's Providence, both of my brothers were there, and they rubbed me With camphor until finally I gasped for breath. When I came to myself my brother read from the paper an article that Mr. Preston Gibaon, of South Carolina, had writ ten about the Keeley Institute. I was persuaded by my brothers to take the treatment, and. my friends, then and there I made the wisest decision 1 ever made in my life. It has been seven yeara since I took the treat ment, and those seven years have been the happiest of my life, both to myself and family.
