SHE, TOO, WAS FAITHFUL St. Louis Machinist Went to Han over, Germany, to Bring Back Margaretlia I'aulessen Were Married in America. After waiting seven years for his bride, Peter Offermann, a machinist, living at Fourth and Walnut streots, was married at noon yesterday by Justice Walker to Miss Margaretlia Paulessen of the province ot Hanover, Germany. The wedding was tho ciilminiatlon of a courtship of nine years' duration, in which nearly all the obstacles that lovers could encounter were faced and overcomo. Offermann is the son of a farmer and un til seven years ago lived in Germany. His wife is the daughter of a farmer who lived near the Offermauns. The two were school mates In the public school In the Father land and became sweethearts in their youth. When Margarctha was 15, he proposed mar riage and received her consent; but her father opposed, declaring his daughter should not marry until she was 25 years old. In the old country elopements are much more difficult of execution than here, and therefore aro ot rare occurrence. Offermann accepted the inevitable, and after pledging his fidelity to the girl, emi grated to America, promising to return to make her his bride as soon as she had arrived at the age prescribed by her father. He settled in St. Louis and applied himself assiduously to the study of machinery. He corresponded regularly with his sweetheart, promising to return to claim her hand as soon as the parental age limitation expired. Miss Paulesscn was 2t years old on July 3, last. Three weeks before that date Of fermann left St. Louis en route for Ger many. Ho sailed from New York for Ham burg June 15. and arrived in the latter placo Juno 2). Thenco he journeyed to the home of his sweetheart in Hanover, arriving tha day before her birthday. His coming was not a surprise. Miss Paulessen had been advised of it by letter, and she in turn had notified her parents that her lover w.-s coming atter seve.i years' ubsence to claim her hand. The father entered no demurrer. Offermann preferred to be married ln America so he and the bride-elect sailed without delay and arrived in St. Louis two days ago. Yesterday they secured a mar riago license and were wed.

The delicate and tedious operation of grafting a new scalp on the terribly lacer ated head of Adele Lynch was begun at the Uty Hospital yesterday by Superintendent Xlotert and Doctor Abeken. Cuticle for the purpose was given by tho uiuu.iuium gin a sisters, ivatiieryn ana Marguerite, who submitted gladly to the painful operation of stripping it from their hrms. The doctors will not be able to tell whether tho first operation was successful until seven days have elapsed. Atlele Lynch is the girl whose entire scalp was torn oft by machinery in th printing olllco of Parker Bros., at Third and Olive streets, Tuesday afternoon. It was thought at first tiiat she could not survive tho shock, but she is now thought to have a fair chance of recovery. At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon the pa tient was ready for the operation. Her two sisters bravely stood the ordeal of hav ing the skin cut from their arms. The skin was placed on the head of the patient as soon as it was removed from tho arms. Doctor Nletert says that he expects the skin-grafting process to be more successful in this case than it was with Ituby Rich ards, because it was commenced sooner. "There aro about 160 square inches to be covered. ' he said. "If the patient lives I shall perform tho operation once each month, taking about twenty grafts of one Inch each from the arms or legs ot her friends and relatives. About half tho crafts are usually unsuccessful, so that Miss Lynch's friends will probably bo called on to furnish about 301 square inches or more of their skin to supply her de ficiency." Mis3 Lynch will have to remain In tho hospital more than a year under tho most favorable conditions. THROWN OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Last Two Days of the Furniture Exposition.

No amount of persuasion can induce those who have once used it to use any other, especially for preserving1 and puri fying the skin, scalp, and hair of infants and children. CUTI CURA SOAP combines delicate emollient properties derived from CUTICURA, the great skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients and the most refreshing of flower odors. No 'other medicated soap ever compounded is to he compared with it for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair, and hands.
