The Trying Bridal Array.
As for bride*, they are never “Incom
parably beautiful’’ in reality. As a
matter of fart, the woman does not
live who would be beautiful In n high
nocked and lonc-sleeved boalce of try
ing Ivory white, and even If she were
*o pretty she could stand even this, a
tulle bridal veil never lends Itself to
peaceful effect*, and is about as trying
n ; lece of framework for the average
f.'.o as could well be conceived. Even
if the toilet were nil that could he
r. ked for in the way of breomluguess,
t > brido I* never at her best under
i r most trying circumstances. She
!s always absurdly aeif-consclous, and
r-.at does hot tend towards making her
c rrlage the moat-graceful tn ui« world.
She Is generally pale and thin, tor she
will never learn that It is infinitely
more genalbto to have fewer clothes
than to wear hewelf out trying them
on or making them. Altogether, poor

The Invitation#.
No subject, has been more volumi

pense of weldings. Whether the la
bor. the anxiety unit the expense are
not greater than the pleasure to be de-
I rived from the enjoyment of u costly
n ut elaborate wedding *s a problem ev-
I cry one decides for aeraelf or himself.
It can eurelv never be wise for nny
one to run In debt or to overtax their
strength; yet there is nothing that
gives a woman more comp.cte satlsfae
tlon than the memory of a big wed
ding. where everything was made beau
tiful for her. and where all honors
were hfaped upon her. Foolish ns it
may seem. the. bride who bus been qui
etly married in a dark travelling gown
never has D»lto the same feeling of
tender sentiment towards the memory
of her wedding day os her more for
tunate aster, who has been attired in
white satin and orange blossoms, and
ha* had all* the attendant pomp and
gl iry. The quiet ceremony nrn* the
plain dark suit may be more practice!
nnd sensible oil around, but what
would become of us all 1-n this work
away world if wc always allowed cbm
nion sense to push seotiment to one
elder ’
No -ingle Item of expense connected
with a wedding is more pardonable
than than that incurred for Inviia

We remained here unmolested till
June. We were then ordered to pre
pare two or three days rations. We
knew «ve had to go on a long tramp
somewhere, for old Joe was still hid
out nursing his sores. Well, our great
