RICHARD H. FITCH, Editor. . . .' . .
_JDITION.‘ a”
Wilton. Conn
Wilton.
An apology is due our Wilton read-
ers today for the absence of the usual
weekly budget of local items, but the
truth of the matter is our regular Wil-
ton editor, Mr. Richard H. Fitch, had
an important engagement to fill this
week and his time and attention was
wholly occupied with that event.
When he and his charming bride re-
turn from their wedding tour, the
Wilton column will again bristle with
items from his versatile pen.
The GAZETTE had made arrange-
ments for its society reporter to be
present at the wedding ceremony, but
owing to the train being on time and
the reporter late, we are disappointed
in not being able to give a full and com-
plete account of the happy affair.
However, we include an apology to
the Wilton editor and his bride, and
extend to them‘ all the good wishes
possible for one scribe to offer another,
and may their pathway be ever strewn
with roses.

_Mrs. S. W. Banning and family, of
Morristown, are‘guests of her sister,
Mrs. J. M. Betts.
W. K. J. Hubbell is assisting T. F.

Miss Florence Gilbert has been visit-
ing in Norwalk.
The annual meeting of St. Matthew s

Wardens, Eil S. Betts, Daniel G. Betts:
Vestrymen, Henry Barrett, David B.

F Heir-Brady.
One of the prettiest of the post-lenten
weddingswas that of Miss Emma Bertha
Brady, daughter of Mrs. Francis Brady,
and Richard Henry Fitch son Of Mrs.
Sherman P. Fitch both of Wilton which
took place at St. Matthew’s Episcopal
church in Wilton, yesterday afternoon,
at 4.15 o’clock.
The chancel of the pretty little ed-
ifice was beautifully decorated with
palms and potted plants and was in
keeping with the beauty of the cere-
mony.
Long before the time for the cere-
mon y the church was crowded with the
many friends of the couple from Wil-
ton, Norwalk and nearby towns.
At the appointed hour the bridal party
arrived the bride leaning on the arm
of her uncle, Mr. George Brady and
gowned in a tailor made suit of brown
broad-cloth with hat' to match. She
was preceded by the ushers and maid
of honor Miss Mary Comstock who
looked charming in a gown of white
organdie. They prcceeded up the aisle
to the ever new strains of the wedding
march which was played by Mr. Ernest
Hurd.
At the altar the bride was met by
the groom and his best man, Edward S. ‘
Fitch of New York, a brother of the
groom. Rev. William E. Hooker, rec-
tor Of the church read the impressive
Episcopal marriage service and pro-
nounced the words which made them
man and wife.
The ushers were Messrs. Samuel B.
Sturges, Louis R. Ambler, George L.
Woodward of N orwalk and J. Moifatt
McQueen of New York.
The newly married couple received
the congratulations of a few friends
before leaving the church and upon
their arrival at the station were del-
uged with rice. They took the 5.02
train west and after a tour south and
west will return to Wilton where they
will permanently reside.
Mr. and Mrs. Fitch were the recip-
ients of many valuable presents con-
sisting of silver, cut glass, etc.
The GAZETTE extends its congratu-
lations to the happy couple and wishes
them a long and prosperous life.

Altemus, the shoe dealer and his wife.
Mrs. Altemus as has been reported had
for some length of time been confined
in an insane asylum. Not long ago she
left the institution and returned to her
home whare she had lived quite peac-
ably until Wednesday when she ex-
hibited some violence by smashing
furniture and whatever she could lay
her hands on in a ruthless manner.
John thereupon turned her out and left
the store himself. After he had gone
she broke in the place again and pro-
ceeded to finish her destructive work.
It is thought that she will be return-
ed to the asylum. John, it is said is
not wholly blameless for the trouble.

”in. Over Dresses.
The home dressmaker is Just now
employing a. considerable part of be
time in making over dresses from those
which have done fair duty 'for two‘sea-
sons past, and arranging new draperies
of net, mull, fancy grenadine, or othei
semldtransparent textiles over bodies
and skirts or princesse dresses of silk
or satin. that have been worn in othel
forms. To add to these gowns when
thus partly finished, are now sold
quantities of extremely pretty made-up
laces—berthas. plastrons, collarettes,
frllled flchus, girdles, enriched with
handsome slides and jewelled buckles,
and also knife, box, and accordion-
pleated frillings by the yard, that form
short sleeves and corsage, and skirt-
trimmings that save much time for the
dressmaker, and prove very elfective
additions. Another use that is made of
partly worn silk or satin skirts in
green, blue, black, etc., is to convert
them into pettlcoats. These skirts
must be ripped apart, brushed, sponged
and pressed. a breadth or so removed,
and then the skirt faced and bound at
the hem. so that it will wear well—a.
great fault with nine-tenths of the silk
skirts sold ready made being the pro-
penslty to fray very quickly at the low-
er edges. - Rustle percaline, or some of
the other substitutes for taffeta, is a
good choice for the facing. When com.
pleted. add new rufiles to the skirt,
which need not necessarily match the
foundation. Hundreds of very hand-
some remnants are offered for sale‘ in
two and three-yard lengths, that will
make the prettiest sort of frills for the
petticoat. These may be carried to the
stores, where side-pleating is done at
so many cents a yard, or be corded at
home on the sewing machine, with the
simple little cording attachment. They
can be pinked with a tiny pinki’ng-iron
at the edge. or merely piped or hemmed
and machine-stitched. The rufllles may
be of fancy-striped satin in tri-colors
of plain or shot taffetas, of pleated sur-
ah, faille, Liberty silk or satin, or any
of the very gay tartans in glowing
clan colors.
Natural Cosmetics.
Let orange or lemon peel soak in
your water jugs; it forms an excellent
tonic and cleanser for the complexion.
Cucumber rlnd is also beneficial, as
also is cucumber Juice. Cut it in
'slices, and let the juice run from it.
or press the juice out with a pestle
and mortar; then use the juice to bathe
the face twice daily; it is so cooling
and nice.
Vichy Water is another excellent and
natural cosmetic, as it containssucb
cleansing properties and preserves the
natural beauty of the skin.
First wash the face in the usual way,
always remembering to use pure soap,
rinse well, then with a soft sponge
dipped in Vichy Water wipe the face
well over, and finally dry thoroughly,
with a fine. soft towel.
If you use Vichy Water you can eas-
ily dispense with the use of soap, as it
isso cleansing.
l For the complexion, too, ladies
would find elder-flower or rose-water
far preferable to ordinary water, and
either is most refreshing and nice.
more especially in summer time.
