In her superb bridal gown of white satin, with a sheen of silver and shaped appliqued lace veil that fell to the him of her train, she looked statuesquely beautiful. Over the reverse of the gown and Conning the sleeves was an embroid- ery of flowers in floss silk, edged by tiny seed pearls. Family lace worn by four generations trimmed the corsage, and her ornaments were of diamonds and sapphires. A touch of orange blossoms lent a note of color, and her bouquet was of lilies of the valley. She was met at the improvised chancel rail by the groom, with his best man, Dr. Pierre Mallett, of New York. Following the impressive cere- mony, amid a setting of red, to which the cardinal's robes lent an added magnificence, a reception -was held for the family and immediate friends, and later a wedding breakfast was served, informally, while many of the guests inspected the handsome pres- ents sent from all over the country.

Grandin, the popular druggist of Ontario. N. Y. “She was disap- pointed and wanted to know what cough pn*|iarution I could recom- mend. I said to her that I could freely recommend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and that she could take a bottle of the remedy and after giving it a fair trial if s#* did not find it worth the money to bring baek the bottle and I would refund the price paid. In the course of a day or two the lady tame back in company with a friend in need of a cough medicine and udvis<*d her to buy a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I consider that a very good rocotumendation for the reme- dy.” The remedy owes -its great popularity and extensive sale in a large measure to the personal re- coimnendatioifr of people who have been cured by its use.
