It is a high honor to the three Romans. This wedding story really really ‘‘takes the cake * ’No social event occurring in a great while has been more discussed than the brilliant Peel-Kiser wedding, which was a perfect combination of the formal, the sentimental and aesthetic. It was an old.-fasbioned southern wed« ding in many of its aspects, and the large company was served with most generous hospitality. The bride’s table itself a marvel of beauty and interest. The great cake, in a style so fashionable some years ago, was new to many of the younger guests. It was a yard wide and fifty inches high and weighed about one hundred pounds.” Mr. Jno. Ashley Jones of Atlanta representing the New York in surance company, was in the city yes terday. There is an erroneous impression held,” says Mrs. Julia Iverson Patter son who is well known to many Romans discussing Woman’s life insurance iu the Atlanta Constitution, to i“the effret than in the woman’s department patrons are solicited among women only, but my agents and myself have been given full authority to solicit among men and women, and so far we have been equally successful with both. “What is the largest policy we have yet secured among women? Why, you know,” she said laughingly, “women are limited to $5,000 policies, and my patrons among women have so far taken out any amount from SI,OOO to $5,000 This matter of limiting women as to the amount of insurance they may oarry in the average company is one that would prove an interesting subject for the suf fragists. |Btatistics prove that women proportionately live longer -than men, and yet, because they are generally con sidered the ‘weaker vessels’ they suffer the idisadvantages in insurance com panies. “My ambition,’’ went on Mrs, Patton “Is to see Bjwoman'a insurance company established, distinctively a woman’s venture and on an equal basis with that of other companies, where the woman who oan afford it and so desires may in. sure her life for any amount. My ven ture has excited much interest among women, and I have had letters from many different states making inquiries as to my methods and present success. Among my agents in Georgia are some of the most prominent young women, Miss Marion Smith, the daughter of “Bill Arp,“ having recently beenap pointed as agent through north Geor gia.” The Rome Georgian in commenting on The Tribune’s editorial “Charlie is coming” says: • ‘We know that Mr. and Henrotin will properly appreci ate the intentions of courtesy ex. pressed by one of Rome’s leading dailies. It gives us a great pleasure also to state that they will be in Rome during the Federation, the guest of Col. and Mrs. J. Lindsay Johnson. We have no doubt but that the press and people of Rome will unite in ac cording them the courtesy and consid eration due their position of prominence, wealth and social distinction. Our con tempory however,* will have the honor of being unique and singular in the particular kind of attention it expects to bestow.” In Rome Georgia, on a hill top Is a college big and fine, Yon all know it, ’t is old Shorter, Round it loving|heatts entwine. And to it new pupils continue to flock. The latest arrival is Miss Inez Loring, of Mentone. Ala. Miss Loring is a neice of General Loring of the Confederate States army, who was afterwards an officer in the army of the Khedive of Egypt. The young lady inherits the talent which has always distinguished those of her name, and Shorter college is glad to give her a welcome. Knowing of the high qualifi cations of Miss Ivylyn Duggan as a teacher of French, from the hearty en dorsement given by Prof. Lustrat of State University, Miss Loring comes to prepare herself to speak the beautiful language like a Parisian. Miss Duggan's classes are large and enthusiastic; her years of careful study and training under Professor Lustrat have made her a cap: - ble faithful, and successful teacher < f French. Her pupils are to be congratu lated, and she herself is to be congratu - lated for being sought out as a teacher by so gifted a young lady as Miss Inez Loring. z Mrs. John Montgomery and Masters Stafford and James Montgomery spent last week in Nashvi’le.

Fads In Medicine. There are fads in medicine as in every thing else and a “new thing” frequently sells for a short time simply because it is new. But in medicine, as in tiothing else, the people demand and will be satisfied only with positive, absolute merit. The fact that Hood’s Sarsaparilla has stood its griund against all competition, and its sales have never wavered but have re mained steadily at the top, demonstrates, beyond any doubt, the intrinsic virtues of this medicine. The new things have come and gone but Hood’s Sarsaparilla rests upon the' solid foundation of abso lute merit and its power to cure, and its sales continue to be the largest in the world. Roasting Coffee. In Norway, where superb coffee is made, a bit of butter is added to the beaus while they are roasting in the covered shovel used there for that pur pose. In France, as well, a piece of but ter the size of a walnut is put with three pounds of the coffee beans, and also a dessertspoonful of powdered sug ar. This brings out both flavor and scent, and, moreover, gives the slight caramel taste which will be remember ed as a pleasing part of French coffee.— New York Post.
