Mrs. JAMES FULLER MTCIN-
LEY, wife of Captain McKin
ley, of Fort Oglethorpe, is. a
charming Atlanta girl whose marriage
rlv in September took place at the
summer home of her parents at Black
Mountain, N. C., thus depriving her
friends of the opportunity for giving
ore .nuptial parties. Hence her visit at
present is especially gratifying, and the
young bride is sharing honors with the
br tdes-elect at the season's parties.
Several of these brides-to-be are her
Intimate friends and debutantes of two
years ago, when she was formally pre
sented to society.

Nunnally’s handsome costume was of
white channelise satin, combined with
white brocade, and she wore a black
hat adorned in white plumes.
The luncheon table was decorated In
the bridal colors of white and green.
The centerpiece was of white chtysan
themums in a silver vase, ropes of smi
te and white ribbons entwined, com
ing from the chandelier to the center
piece of flowers. The mints and con
fections were white and green. Place
cards bore quaint little old-fashioned
brides and bridegrooms, and silver slip
pers filled with rice were souvenirs at
each place. The ices were fro re n as
little brides and bridegrooms, and many
appropriate and pretty nuptial details
were introduced.
Among the guests were Miss Kath
erine Richardson, wearing a charminfg
gown of old rose crepe de chine with
collar and cuffs of white hemstitched
chiffon, and a black velvet hat; Miss
Gertrude Richardson, in a frock of soft
white silk rfhallls, and a big black hat
trimmed in peacock blue ribbon; Misses

THIS BANK FOR MEN NOT
LIVING WITH THEIR WIVES
ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. 25.—Overseer of
the Poor George Ortlip has established a
unique Institution—a bank for the hus
bands who are estranged from their wives
and who could be compelled by court pro
ceedings to remit regularly.
Ortllp accepts a personal bond from the
husband to pay the wife a regular sum,
and if the payment fails, then the bonds
man is sought to make up the deficiency.
And it is only in case of final failure that
the court is invoked. So far the scheme
has worked splendidly.

Mr. Horstman has twenty acres in
clover, and the two crops raised this
season will sell for about $1,200.
DEAD EGGS

prosecuted the beef trust for

The Bazaar
First Aid to the. House Furnishers
She who loves a well appointed home will derive much pleasure and get
many good ideas from a visit to the Bazaar.
Its stocks are composed of those things that go to make homes more at
tractive.
Good taste is the keynote here—good taste that avoids the tawdry and the
sham, whether it be in the selection of a simple little candle shade, of a crys
tal service, of a china set. of a true-art bronze.
And the stocks are so broad and so complete that they extend their
help to home keepers of all means—those who can command everv
luxury and those who must limit their selections to the necessities. For
the one right now we might mention the arrival of brass coal and wood boxes
that are exceptionally elegant—for the other complete services of Rogers’
“1847” plated silverware, that may be bought in just the quantity you need.
A Good Time to Get Your Corsets

corsets, she brings to your aid in fitting you.
