D EXPLAINS TO THIN LADIES A Simp'a . B u t Sure Method of a Well-Rounded E ust and Figure. (From York Journal.) It is a staple but sure method of developing the bust, arms, neck, hips and shoulders of women, who through some defect of nutrition and circulation are forever being humiliated by their more fortunate sisters. First, it must be under stood that the human skin is an enormous gland, richly endowed with nerves, secreting and excret ing organs, and a network of mi nute blood vessels which contain at one time o\er one-third of all the blood in the body—that is. if nature is perfect. The relation of the skin to the vital organs through the nervous system in controlling the blood supply is such as to put them as a team working together./ Get separately two ounces of glycerine, three ounces 'of rose water, one ounce tincture cado mene compound (not cardamom) and five cents’ worth of borax. Mix the glycerine with tincture cado mene. shake and let stand two hours; then add a teaspoonful of borax and the roaewater. Apply to the parts needing development morning and night, rubbing until thoroughly absorbed; fhen wash off with not water and soap and dry. It is believed by expert derma tologists to be the most effective prescription ever conceived for the purpose. ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.

F. Riley The marriage of Miss Louise An derson and Mr. George Frank Riley, which occurred at St. James church at seven o’clock last evening was most Impressive in its exquisite sim plicity. The church decorations, which wen* confined to the altar, consisted of stately palms, delicate ferns and graceful garlands of bamboo whleh trellised the choir gallery with its woodlawn beauty, and formed a ver dant environment for the bridal party. As tt^e 1 blended strains of the wed ding march by Miss Marsden and Senor Andonegui, swelled through the sanctuary the bridal party entered. The ushers, Mr. L. J. Perry, Mr. Emory Williamson, Mr. George Bate* and Mr. Callaway Riley preceded the bride who entered with the groom. Never has the bride been more strikingly lovely than in her wedding gown of imported Japanese silk, hand embroidered in the national flower of Japan, the stately chrysantehmum, which formed a front panel and ex tended about the sides until it was lost in the gracefully falling train. A cascaded drapery effect was caught to the waist with a broad pearl girdle which also held in place the drapery of the waist, which was finished with pearl drops. The bodice was fash ioned with a Pompadour yoke of pearl embroidered chiffon outlined with bands of pearl passementerie. The long close fitting sleeves were made of silk caught together with a band of embroidered chiffon edged with hands of pearl passementerie. Cover ing the slender girlish figure was a filmy mist of tulle which was caught to the becomingly arranged coiffure with a coronet of lilies-of-the-valley. Her flowers were an armful of bride roses caught with streamers or em broidered tulle. After the church ceremony the bri dal party and relatives repaired to the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Anderson, 323 Walk er street, where an informal reception was held and a bridal supper served. The entire lower suite of tho Ander son home was in bridal attire of white and green, with hangings of bamboo converting the rooms into a bower amid which bloomed the most gorgeous of white chrysanthemums. The table at which the bride was seated was very lovely, the satir. dam ask cloth being overlaid with hand some lace in the centre of which rest ed a mirror plateau simulating tha placid waters of a lake with its edges banked with delicate smilax and white chrysanthemums. I i the centre was placed a superb vase of white chry santhemums which reached almost to the chrysanthemum crowned chande lier above, from which was suspended a mass of chrysanthemums with a softening effect of tulle In which was encased a brilliant mass of elec tric lights. At each place was placed single candlesticks garlanded with smilax and shaded by huge white chrysanthemums. The place cards were wedding bells done in cunning little brides and grooms and the fin ishing touch to the beautifully ap pointed table was given by the bride's cake which was elaborately and ar tistically iced in the bridal flower. After the serving of a delicious sup per the bride changed her gown for a smart traveling suit of wistaria broadcloth, worn with a hat of the same shade, and attended by the cor dial of good wishes tke young couple left for a bridal trip north. Upon their return they will make their home with Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, i CHRIST MAS GOODS Scores of them. Every con ceivable variety. THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
