Carson (a personal friend of the bride) presided at the organ. Entering the church escorted by her father, the bride wore a beautiful gown of ivory ring velvet, made on closefitting lines, the bodice being slightly rucked and the skirt fully flared from the knees. The long, tight-fitting sleeves were pointed over the hands and were finished with a row of tiny buttons to the elbow. A beautifullyembroidered veil (lent by the bride’s sister) was held to the head by a half circlet of orange blossom, and, extending to the ground, formed a train. She wore a shoulder spray of orange blossom, a rhinestone necklace, brocaded crepe-de-chine shoes and carrying a shower bouquet of white chrysanthemums, spider lillies, pale pink carnations and roses, with trailers of asparagus fern, the bride presented a charming picture.

DON’T WASTE TIME It’s a waste of time to experiment with liniments and plasters when you have a dull, throbbing backache or have sharp, stabbing twinges. Get after tho cause! Help tho kidneys with Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills. Read this: Air. Fred Alarshall, Carrier, No. 15 Pitt Street, Wanganui, says: “I suffered terribly from backache, caused through catching a severe cold which settled on my kidneys. I was really far from well and work was a burden to me. My rest at night was broken and I used to get up in the morning, feeling as tired as when I went to bed. The kidney secretions were affected, being thick and cloudy and in a very unhealthy state. Although I tried all sorts of remedies in the hope of getting well again, it was not until 1 bad used a bottle of Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills that I really felt I was on the road to recovery. 1 continued taking them for a few weeks with the result that four bottles completely cured me. I recommend this remedy with every confidence to all who suffer with their kidneys. ” I Some years later, Mr. Alarshall says: “I have had no return of my old complaint since Doan’s Backache Kidney I Pills cured me. ” i Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills are sold by all chemists and storekeepers.
