Stocks, of This City, Weds Miss Cook, of Cochran. Mr. Wright C. Stock, of this city, and Miss Eva Cook of Coch ran, were happily married at the home of the bride’s parents in that city yesterday morning at 9 o’clock. Rev. Mr. Sims officiating. The marriage was w itnessed by large number of the friends of both bride and groom. Messrs J. W. and C. E. Stocks and Miss Lola Stallings accompanied the groom to Cochran. The bridal party arrived here on the 5:45 train yesterday afternoon. Mr. Stocks is one of Barnes vi lie’s most promising and pros perous young business men and is well worthy the lovely bride he has won, who is one of Cochran’s most popular and accomplished young ladies. Woman is often referred to by man as “doubling his joys and having his sorrows. Ihat may be complimentary but it would seem to be rather hard on the wo man. For in plain terms it means that where things are going w ell with the man his wife makes them go better. But when things are going ill with him, he ex pects his wife to bear half his burden. And there’s more truth than poetry in this presentation of masculine selfishness. Men don’t appreciate the fact that the strain of motherhood alone is a burden bigger tnan all the loads ! that rest upon male shoulders. They see'the wife grow thin, pale, nervous and worn without a thought that she is overburdened. Among the pleasant letters receiv ed by Dr. Pierce are those from husbands who have waked up be fore it was too late to the crushing burdens laid upon the wife, and in the search for help have found in Dr. Pieiee’s Favorite Prescrip tion a restorative which has given back to the mother the health of the maiden and the maiden’s hap piness. “Favorite Prescription” always helps most always cures. It has perfectly cured ninety-eight out of every hundred women who have used it when afflicted with* dißeases t peculiar to women.
