A PAIR OF WEDDINGS “You don't tuy so!” Grandma Pine looked sharply over her spectacles at pretty Nanny Campbell, who who sat at her feet on an old fashioned “cricket;” tho blaze of the open fire playing on her bright, blushing free and lending a richer shade of gold to the crown forehead. of fluffy hair that hid her white Nanny had come up to Traverse to 6pend Thanksgiving with her grand¬ parents. She came the day before, but her father and mother could not leave until the next morning. Dr. Campbell was too busy a man to spare more than a day from his practice; and Nanny was glad to come alone, for she had a great piece of news to tell grandma. Yes, with a deeper glow than the firelight on her drooping face, she imparted the won¬ derful intelligence that she was engaged to Jack Norton, and was going to be married on Christmas. Now grandma was not really much surprised, for Jack Norton was the son of Dr. Campbell's oldest and best friend, and the children had known each other always. Grand¬ ma, with the forecasting wisdom of old ladies, had prophesied to herself this re¬ sult years ago, yet she thought she was surprised to find her prophecy had been fulfilled. Perhaps it never would have been had Nanny and Jack lived next door to each other always; but when they were yet children Air. Norton had left Ridgefield and gone to Boston to live. And Jack, moreover, had been sent to Germany for his preparatory studies, and to England for his collegiate education, so he was as good as a stranger when lie came homo to share his father’s business; and when lie sa w pretty Nanny, who bad blossomed from a plain angular little girl into a lovely young woman, lie fell in love with her after tlie good old fashion, and she returned his passion with all the faith and fervor of a girl’s first serious affec¬ tion. They had lice engaged several months, but Nanny bad not announced the fact to any but her father and mother. She was both shy and cautious, so she waited to tell grandma until the wedding day was set. Grandma was ready with congratula¬ tions; yet. as she drew the fair young bead down to her knee and stroked the bright hair with tremulous fingers, she sighed, for she had lived too long not to dread life for the child she loved so well. “I’m kinder pleased,” she confided to grandpa, in that “grand committee of two” which married people hold on mat¬ ters that interest them or their neighbors, “and I'm kinder distressed, too. I don't like hi) bein’a lawyer; 't never seemed as though ’twas a reliable business, nor one tin t a real honest, straightforrard man could fuller. ” “Well,” said grandpa, thoughtfully, “you've got to take things by and large, Elviry— by and large. Tlic's some lyin’ in all business. You don’t sell all the big p’tatoes nor all the sound apples in the same barrel cf you're a farmer, nor you don’t tell a man how old your critters bo —not to a day. L>o you s’pose Tatum fells his dry goods and groceries on the square always? Don’t we get poor drugs for high prices down to Dean’s? An' Mine to fine it down, Parson Pitcher don't write a sermon every week, now I tell re. There's suthin’ bad to every¬ thing; ’tain't a heaven on earth down to Porting, no mor’u ’tin here to Trav¬ erse. ’ ’ “Well, I don’ know as ’tis,” replied grandma, with a sigh; “but anyhow 1 wish 't she wasn't goin' to be married in December. ” And while Nanny was bustling round in the hheVu next morning, r.tir'dng cold milk into the Indian pudding that today had the great oven to itself. 1 ;! u huge turkey in the roc-ter, gar; ; h, th tongues, keeping an eye on the ei.ic!;s n pie that stood on a tripod in tl e chimney corner to keep it hot afn r i: had be. n drawn from the aforesaid o ven, and doing for grandma all the little odds and ends that are so much work fur old pcopl and so little for young ones, grandma was re¬ solving in her mind certain good counsel. for thegirl, which might or might i.-T lie accepted and acted up-n; for grandma had old fashioned idea.-. She-. poke at las;, her fingers meanwhile busy paring potatoes for the pot that stood bubbling to receive them: “So you're goin’ to be married Christ- may Day, be you, Nanny?” “No. dear—Christmas Eve." • “Seems pretty c> Id time for a wed- din’,” said grandma taxing up another potato. Jack would not wait till ‘•Wed. ye;. June, when I wanted to have it; he mid he never believed in long engagements. And mothe r thinks just so; that is. when; people have known each other as long ru Jack and I have. “Goin' to be married in church, 1 sup¬ pose?” and tin rccopiii Now “Oh yes, n a n. you and grandpa must come down; 1 want you to promise.” old and rheu¬ “We’re a'meat too too maticky, Nanny. to go junketin' round in midwinter.” “No, you’re not—not a Lit. The cars arc warm, and mother'll have a fire in your room; and it's going to be such a pretty wedding! Six bridemaids. granny: all of them pretty girls, too, in low dress¬ es of lacc and pink satin, with roses and short veils of tulle. They'll look just lovely. And Mr. Adams-you remem¬ ber Everett Adams, who studied with father—he's to be best man.” “Land!” ejaculated grandma. “I should think Jack would he the best man amongst'em.” laughed Nanny, with Hush “Well,” a that would have been the precise tint for her bridemaids' dresses, ‘ ‘I tlnnk he is, but that isn't what they call him.” “And what is ‘low’ dresses?” queried grandma. “Oh, low necked, and with no sleeves; just a strap across tho shoulder, you know.” “Good gracious,” exclaimed the olJ lady, looking over her spectacles think with that a glare of horror. “I should was low! Dreadful low, too. They’d ought to ho 'shamedof themselves." “Why, gran’, it's the fashion.” “I don’t care nothing about that, child; it ain't decent, nor it ain’t pretty. Who wants to see them girls’ bones? and girls in these days haven’t got much more’n skin and bones. Mabbe that young flpe- tor may like studyin’ of ’em, and serin’ how the j'ints work; but I should ruther he a dead skeleton than a live one, if I was agoin* to ho studiesf by a young doc¬ tor. ” “Grandpa, 1 do think you’re dreadful! Why, Alice Brook has got neck and arms like a liaby; and Rosina Leavitt’s are lovely, too, if she is a little dark.” • Well, anyway, I call it cruelty to an¬ nuals to her them girls go out in that con¬ dition of a cold winter’s night into a big draughty church. Be you goin’ ‘low’ too?” “Oh. no. It's not the fashion for brides. I'm goin’to have white satin, high to the throat and down to the wrists, with beautiful lace alt about it.” ••I guess your pa wouldn’t let you go any other way,” dryly remarked grand¬ ma. “I guess he’d have to, if 'twas the fashion,” pouted Nanny. “Well, fools ain’t all dead yet,” re¬ torted grandma, with some severity. “When I was married ’twas daylight, and to home. Eben and me was going down to Boston for a spell; he was in old •Silas Bunker’s store then. I had on a dark blue cloth habit with frogs onto it, and n big Leghorn bonnet with a white feather, real long and fcurly, an’ some red roses under the front on’t. ’Twas warm an’ sensible for a long ride in Sep¬ tember, and our folks thought I looked consider'bio well. ” The old lady’s keen dark eyes and deli¬ cate aquiline profile, though tho waved hair was now snow white and the small mouth had lost its color and fullness, made Nancy acquieseo in “our folks’ ” verdict. “I guos3vou looked just lovely, grand¬ ma, but”-- “Say! here's the doctor!” screamed Thankful Bangs, who was setting the table for dinner, and Nanny’s speech never was finished, for she and grandma rushed out to meet the welcome guest. Two hours after, when tho dinner had been discussed and the guests were pick¬ ing out their walnuts and butternuts, the never failing last course at Traverse for a Thanksgiving dinner, Airs. Campbell said, suddenly: “Oh, Nanny, I quite for¬ got. Here's a little note that came for you after you left.” Nanny took the envelope, and after the fashion of women eyed it on the out¬ side, turned it over and examined the seal, and then returned it and inspected again the direction and the postmark. “Seems to me it would he a quicker way to find out who wrote it if you opened it,” remarked Dr. Campbell. Nanny laughed and broke tho seal. “Oh, dear!” she said, after running through the brief missive. “Isn’t this provoking! It is Alida Van Alstyne. Just hear: “ My Dear Nanny—I have only found out today that your ‘maids’ intend to wear low dresses. I never have given in to that style yet. but if I could sacrifice what you would call my prejudices and I call my principles on any occasion, or for any one, it would be now for you. However, I have a threatening cold, which I must nurse, and perhaps you will remember that I had pneumonia last winter, so I cannot, for my health’s sake, wear anything but a high necked and long sleeved dress. Now I shall not feel at all aggrieved if you drop me from tho company of bridemaids on this ac¬ count ; hut I want you to let me know just as soon as possible, so that I may or may lovingly. not engage Mine. Delano. Yours, Alida Van Alstyne.’ “Isn't it too bad!” exclaimed Nanny, as she laid down the note. “Too good—to be true,” growled the doctor. “What shall I do?” asked Nanny, looking about her in a sort of wild de¬ spair. “She's my intimate friend, and was going to lx? first bride-maid; she's such a nice contrast to me, and I'm so fond of her! And she's sent me the loveliest present I've had—such a set of pale pink coral and pearls! Oh, dear!” “I should think she's got some ;«nse,” put in grandma. “I don't see why >ou want to make a our weduin’ a killin’ business to all them poor young cre- turs. ” “That's just it, mother,” said tho doc¬ tor, putting down the red apple he was quartering. Hast, winter there was just such another wedding in December. Ail those girls had to ride a nnle to the ves¬ try of K;.. Paul’s; form there, and tramp round t > the front door of the church; drop their wraps off at the door, where the cold wind struck 1 „re chests and‘•boulders; stand twenty minutes at the altar; ride back that mile; and stand up all tho evening at a reception so crowded that the windows had to be dropped from the top to prevent as¬ phyxia: and then at midnight drive hack to their homes, the thermometer being six below zero. There were six bride- maids tl. :e; two had pneumonia within the week: one had acute bronchitis; another, tonsilitis; the other two, being tough or case hardened, escaped with severe colds. So much for low dresses at a church wedding!” “Nanny wasn't one of 'em?” asked grandma, anxiously. wedding, “No; she went to the but by vigorous researches into the jKvssibdli- ties of fashion I discovered that young women do sometimes wear what they call Y-shaped necks to their ureases—a fashion that only exposes the most sensi¬ tive part of their lungs both in front and at the back. However, Mme. Delano, the autocrat of our city dress makers, is a patient of mine, and 1 held counsel with her; so Mistress Nan went to that party in a very pretty as well as a respect¬ able she gown, called for it 1 that had absurd madaine piece Till in,’ of pie as J shaped mck with thick satin covered with costly lace: and there was actual sleeves to t . • gown, short, to be sure, hut long Li 1 gloves met them, so my daughter's i*‘ r 3on was not ou exhibition *r sssat Barnaul's ‘fat lady’ that night, and was consoled for being decent and warm against her will by the expensive and some new bracelets." “Oh, papa!" exclaimed dear; Nan. and when “That is just so, my came home did not you find a cup hot broth waiting for you? and a fire in your room? Who do you think or¬ that?” Non looked at her father • i * dimmed and blew a k! at 11 tars the table; she just began to - -e the care that had surrounded her all her days. But she must answer that note. “What shall I say to Alula, mamma?” Mrs. Campbell was a quirt, sweet, motherly woman; but, more> ipathetic the doctor, she better nderstood how powerful fashion is with girls—how few have strength of character to with- its stringent if absurd demands. *”I don’t think you can drop her, Nanny,” she said. “I think that would lie unkind and needless. She is to be first bride maid, and therefore stand next to you; and as you are to wear a high dress hers will not be as conspicuous as if she were among tho others. I agree entirely with your father, and I am glaif it was not at your suggestion that the rest should wear low dresses.” So the matter was settled, and in due time the wedding came off. It was a pretty wedding, as Nanny had assured grandma it would be; but tho old people of Traverse did uot come down for it; the snow lay deep over all the country, the thermometer sank to depths unusual even in New England and keen winds swept across the shining drifts that seemed to pierce the heaviest clothing. “We love you just as much, dear,” wrote grandma, “as though we come to sec you married; but we’re old folks, and the weather is consider’ble cold for any¬ body to be out in, and he is threatened with some sciatiky, so we dursn’t resk it. So wo send you a little matter to buy a weddin’ present with, bein’ you’re all the gran’child we’ve got, and do ye get something real useful or comfortable with it for to remember your very lovin’ grandpa and grandma." A cheek for $500 fell from the letter. “Oh!” exclaimed Nanny. “Now I can havo a sealskin! I didn’t want to ask father for it,” While the bridal precession was form¬ ing—I am afraid c-ven at the altar, cer¬ tainly at the after reception—the “best man” was observed by a disinterested spi-etator to turn his eyes very often upon Alida Van Alstyne. No wonder; she was a very lovely girl, and to-night was at her best; the delicate rose satin that clothed her stately lithe figure up to her throat and down to her wrists shone like a pale sunset through the filmy lace that was draped over it and caught up with blush roses; where tho lace crossed her bosom in soft folds from either shoulder a bunch of the same roses nestled, and the frill of rich lace that stood up about her throat was held in place apparently by a collar of silver filigree, fine as frost¬ work, clasped by a rose of pink coral in whose heart sparkled a diamond dew- drop: ihe short veil that rested on her coronet of dark hair was held by a rose and its hud; the whole dress was exquis¬ ite. And best of nil, a warm natural color lit her fine face, and she looked as she felt, comfortable and at ease. But the others—poor souls, how could tliep help it?—were pinched with cold; their cheeks colorless, their pretty noses absolutely blue: and Rosina Leavitt could not smother with her utmost efforts and her lace handkerchief the incessant little cough that made Dr. Campbell knit liis forehead and stir uneasily in his seat, for lie knew the girl had a sad inheritance of blood; her mother came of a consumptive family. Dr. Everett Adams did not forget his admiration for the “first bridemaid” when this wedding was over. He be¬ came more and more devoted, and tho next September society in B- was pleased but not surprised to hear his en¬ gagement to Miss Van Alstyne announced. By a rather odd coincidence their wed¬ ding too was fixed for Christmas eve. Alida Van Alstyne was very wealthy, if she was very sensible. She had as many “maids' ’ to attend her as Nanny Camp¬ bell. ar.d she gave them their dresses. They were of rose satin, too, hut made high in the nec-k ami long sleeved, the quaintly cut basques trimmed with white fur, a broad band of it edging the short full skirts: poke bonnets of tho same satin wre rhed with short whits ostrich tips, and hunches of white roses on tho left shoulder, completed tho charming and warm costumes. Not one among the pretty group had ever looked so pretty or been more comfortable. And the bride wa; lovelier than ever in her close robe r p potless satin, with no sparkle of J v, e! or glitter of gold about her, but profuse white rose‘3 garlanding from throat to hem her long dress, and a crown of them fastening the veil of Mechlin that was all the drapery that fell over tire solid moonlight folds of her train. Mrs. Jack Norton looked out from a chancel pew, and thinking of her own wedding, gave a silent sigh to poor Rosina Leavitt, sleeping in her southern grave. That troublesome little cough had done its work. 81 10 had taken cold in the church, and gone down to death so fast no human jrower could stay her steps. ‘fixed “Do you know what first my young affection’ on you, as the novelists say. Alida ;” asked Dr. Adams, as he sat with Ids bride on the walls of the old fort at St. Augt tine two weeks after their wedding. “I supp :o it was mybea ; M e answered, \v ith a look and laugh ol co¬ quettish mi-chief, for Everett Adams l-vJ always sak! that he never could or would marry any woman merely for her good looks. “No, indeed, madam.

If the other bridemaids had only known bow pinched and forlorn they looked, how little those Hire arms and necks were admired by the spectators, it would have taught them some things. But you were blooming and radiant, and your dress far handsomer than theirs. I could not bave fallen in love with a red ru >t- and pal-* chocks. I admit.” Alida laughc-d and the doctor kiasco her.
