8 THE AMERICAS DAILY TIMES-RECOKDER: WEDNESDAY, JULi 15, im. THE PICTURESQUE BRIDESMAID. Different Style* of Costumes Worn Now aday* by the Bride's Attendants. The fashionable wedding of today has become a pageant of picturesqueness, in which the bridal procession is a glitter ing array of gay colors and historical costumes. The bridesmaids in dresses of the first empire or the directoire style, and the tiny pages in court dress of the time of Louis XIV alternate, and vio with the bride’s procession of flower girls, who are attended by Little Lord Fauntleroys. It may be that the fair bride has chosen to go into the church escorted by a bevy of fair maidens who are arrayed in the hues of the rainbow, and shining in red, yellow and blue. Others again are preceded In their pas sage down the aisle by a seeming flock of snowbirds, in their frocks of white silk, trimmed with white fox furs and silver braid. Another bride will choose a bevy of fair maids who shall dress in gowns of golden yellow, carry bunches of yellow chrysanthemums or roses, and altogether lend a gleam of sunshine to even a rainy wedding day; while one bride is recorded as having clothed her maids in wedding garments of dust colored broche figured with pink and red roses, and hats of dust colored felt hidden beneath claret tipped plumes crowned their pretty heads, while tiny pages dressed in ruby plush danced gayly along. Formerly the bridesmaids, like the bride, were “clad in robes of shining white,’* and their beauty and elaborate array were supposed to be to her as the pale beauty of the moon to the radiance of the sun, as the modesty of the violet to the ele gance of the rose, as the limpidness of water to the richness of ruby wine; now adays, the bride, the central figure round which clusters all the love and joy and hope that a wedding ring can hold—the bride is apt to be in her conventional wedding gown, the fashion for which varies but little from year to year, though she may substitute roses, hyacinths, chrysanthemums or lilies of the valley for the old time favorite, the orange blossom and flower, is somewhat over shadowed by the gorgeousness of her at tendant maids. Sho may have them hand cuffed together with floral links, she may have them bound with chains of roses which shall fall asunder as she falters forth her solemn vow to love, honor and obey, or she may have them ready to strew flowers in her path as she turns, a newly made wife, from the altar; but in oil these picturesque fashions and quaint Ideas,she detracts from the interest which should center round herself alone, and in stead of one interesting and beautiful figure—for who ever thinks of tho groom? —there comes a group of lovely maidens, a galaxy of beauty in which each star is of equal brilliancy. It can hardly be gain said that in their picturesque array the bridesmaids are fast stealing the honors from the bride, who must confine herself to the regulation snowy garments of silk, satin and tulle, while her maids brighten and beautify the wedding pageant with sweet artistic fantasies and raphsodies in raiment. So long os they are thus attired the truth of the old adage that “Every wedding makes another,” is quite sure to be proved; and the charming maid, in addition to her gifts of pin and locket and bangle and buckle, may count among her trophies a captured heart.—Boston Herald. The Ra*tle** Process for Kettle*. The rustless process, which has been until lately an experiment, has now demonstrated that great economy can be used, not only in iron pipes, but in every article where iron is used. Over 2,000,- 000 kettles have been subjected to this process in Pittsburg. Tho method is very peculiar. After the article is made it is put into a furnace made in an oval shape, air tight After the iron has at tained almost » White heat, tho air that comes through the 'regenerators arid air valves is shut securely off, and the fur nace is made air tight After the air has been shutoff the superheater, which is located in the combination chamber at the rear of thCftoraaoe,' gl« from the air **»♦«*.' * the furnace is filled with steam and kept in that condition for eight hour*. At short intervals a small valve is opened, so os to allow the exodus of steam in the furnace, allowing fresh steam to be pot into it. When the articles have been about ten hoars In the furoaoe there has been accomplished the formation of magnetio oxide upon the boo surface. They are then put into an acid well, which is the last treatment.—Exchange. Thlnpi Ihit Deft Undone. Do not write on ruled paper, or on that decorated with printed sunflower or blos soms of any kind. Do not introduce your girl friend to the gentleman visitor. Instead say, “Miss Brown, will you allow me to pre sent Mr. Jones?” Do not talk especially to one person when you have three or four visitors. Instead make the conversation general.^ Do not attempt to take care of a man’s overcoat—he has a vote and ought to be able to look after his own clothes. Do not ask people who they are in mourning for. If you don’t know, wait until you find out, and in the meantime don’t ask after the members of their family. Do not giggle when a smile would answer, and don’t talk in a jesting way about things that are holy to other peo ple. Do not laugh at anybody’s form of worship—respect a toad praying to mushroom. Do not say the rules of etiquette are nonsense—they are made up for you* comfort and mine, and arranged so that the feelings of every human being are considered. Do not get into the habit of laughing at elderly people. It is not only unlady like, but it is vulgar. Do not think it clever to find out bj pumping, the private affairs of you* friend. There is no reason why you should lay bare her heart for an inqulsi tive daw to peck at. Do not get into debt, but if you havi been guilty, deny yourself everything possible that you may be free once more. Do not believe that all these don’ts ar* not spoken to you in the kindest manner as from girl to girl, but one has to suffer and make mistakes one’s self to find out into just what pitfalls one is apt to tum ble.—Ladies’ Homo Journal. DEMON EDIXIR. The Retort Unfortunate. A certain Shakespearean club in one c< the most fashionable suburbs was enter- tained successively by the various mem bers. It finally became the duty of a popular young bachelor to assume the position of bosh Wishing to make the evening a pleasant reminiscence to all present the gentleman had Rosalie Music hall, in which he proposed entertaining, decorated in a charming manner. He also had a delicious luncheon served by a proficient caterer, and the appoint ments were elegant in every particular. Bo thoroughly enjoyable was the evening that every one felt like expressing their thanks to the young host, ami in various pretty speeches did tho ladies signify their appreciation of his efforts. Surrounded by a bevy of his fair guests, the face of the young man was the picture of delight, when another young lady joined the circle and offered thanks where thanks were due. Her manner of expressing herself, however, caused the light to die out of the young gentleman's face, and a baby stare su perseded it. It might bo remarked here that the young man had offered his hand to a Rosalie Court belle the preceding month and been refused. And tho lady, entirely unconscious of the affair, saidi "Oh, Mr. Blank, I really must compli ment you on tho charming manner io which you have entertained us this even ing. Everything lias been perfectly lovely; wo have noticed the absence of nothing that would have added to the evening's enjoyment, unless, perhaps, a hostess, and (in a piquant manner) we are sure that is something you really couldn't procure.”—Pittsburg Dispatch.

Anecdote of Rubinstein. la Starina, a Russian paper, tells how In Rubinstein's earlier days he narrowly escaped being sent to Siberia. He played before the Czar Nicholas In the house of Count WWhorxky, and on returning home lost hie passport A day or two afterwards he w*» arrested and brought before Gen. Galahoff, then chief of police, who informed the prisoner that he declined to believe anybody's evid ence of his identity, even that of the count Rubinstein persisted that lie was a mere musician, and os one of the sub ordinate police officers knew something about music tho two were sent to try- matters over on a dilapidated piano. Tho test proved satisfactory, and the general, remarking that "the prisoner was apparently a musician," gave iiim u permit for three weeks. How Walters Grow Rich. 1 am informed that Mrs. Lodenburg intends to distinguish hsrtelf by silently effecting a relief from an evil that hat gradually grown into monstrous propor tions in society.

At Sherry’s, as at Del- monioo's, you are at the mercy of the austere yet . perspiring fraternity, who only see a hungry guest through the fibered density of a greenback. Alacrity in service is graduated according to the sixo of the fee. At the last Patriarchs' I gave my waiter a dollar and made shift with cold victuals, while on one side of me was a guest who for a five dollar tip fared sumptuously, while on the other was a brave but mistaken gentleman, who ig nored the waiter’s avaricious palm, and was ignored by that functionary in re turn.—New York Truth. H 1 lie Demand for Cut Clan*. The popularity of cut plans for table decoration in not a fr.tl, but a growing taste, the outcome of its increased beauty in manufacture ami design. When you see a fashionable woman peering over the cut glass counter, in quiring for something in Parisian or Henrietta or discussing tho merits of “strawberry.” “fan” or “diamond,” you may know she is after American glass and prefers a particular cut. While tho inexperienced shopper sees little difference in the similarly shaped and decorated wares, it is yet true that a man in Pennsylvania is rich as a king because he had the wit to take out a patent on one peculiarly cut figure.— Washington Critic, I Co*tlx China Ware, One of the wealthiest women in At lanta, Ga., has at least $3,000 worth oi gloss and china. There are six small cups and saucers which cost alone the sum of $100, and her Bohemian wine glasses in rose and blue, scattered over with tiny arabesque figures and richly finished with gold, all cost from $5 to $10 apiece. Among her daintiest treasures are some finger bowls of white Bohemiuu glass, shaped like yellow primrose.!, won derfully thin and ornamented with very delicate arabesque gold figures. The water pitchers which harmonize with these are tall and slender, graduating from the base to the mouth and orna mented in the same gold designs.—At lanta Constitution. Making r>»et».
