HONORING MISS
CLAIRE JANE DOVEY
The Final Pre-Nuptial Company
Given by Mrs. Frank L. Cummins
and Mrs. Henry Goos.
FVom Tuesday's Dnlly.
The ultimate triumph of a series
of beautiful companies occurred yes
terday at the commodious home of
Mrs. Frank L. Cummin's assist "d by
Mrs. Henry Goos. The remodelling
of the interior of this home present
ed a most pleasing aspect to the ar
tistic eye and immediately deter
mined the genuine interest display
ed in the home furnishings. Every
room had a distinct feature outlin
ed in the deep ivory tone, which is
most attractive against the soft col
orings of the walls and hangings.
Mrs. Cummins is in herself ( a
jugde of the appropriativeness of
combinations which is essential in
artistic results. The color scheme
of the table decorations throughout
the rooms was pink; the pink rosQ,
and when we analize the full mean
ing of "pink" we have eh acme of
perfection. Against this profusion
of pink eh bride-elect wore a radiant
look as Ehe seated herself in the
bridal chair. Her gown was of yel
low charmeuse of uncompVcmising
symplicity.
A most delicious and tempting
three course luncheon was placed
before the guests under the direct
service cf Mrs. Goos and Mrs. Cum
mins. After luncheon bridge whist held
the company for the remainder cf
the e'vening. Despite the disturb
ing conduct of the electric lights,
possibly caused by the angry ele
ments, the interest in the game did
not wane.
To Miss Vallery belonged . the
troph", a beautifi bowl of Vene
tian glass. The guest of honor's
gift was a bowl of the same descrip
tion. And to Mrs. Goos and Mrs.
Cummins belong the honor of enter
tainment. BUYS MORE LAND IN MISSOURI.
From Monday's Dally. i
Yesterday morning Allen Land
and M. S. Briggs, who have been in
Missouri, for the past few days look
ing after some lands, returned, hav
ing visited at Warsaw, Windsor and
Sedalia, where they looked over
much farming lands. Mr. Land
added to his recent purchases, by an
eighty which makes his holdings
now 24 0 acres, and gives him an ex
cellent farm. He was so well pleas
ed with the land which he had pur
chased last summer, that he thought
it would be an excellent time to
make an additional purchase. Since
visiting that portion of the country
the last of August, the lands have
appreciated in price from fifteen to
twenty per cent, many places sell
ing at twenty-five dollars per acre
advance.
While Mr. Briggs also has a
quarter section in Camden county.
they did not visit that portion of the
state. Both gentlemen consider the
lands .there exceptionally ' low pric
ed con.sidering their value. Mr. Land
will move to his new home in the
spring, and expects to depart from
hpe about (he flrgt of March.
