of "weddings knows what an
enormous wealth of veils and
srange blossoms is in prepara
tion for the holidays. Next to
the "Wednestay following Easter
the most fashionable wedding
day in all the year comes the
Sappy Christmastide. So the
jfew days that intervene between
this period and the New Year
31 resound with the merry
vpeal of wedding bells. Just how
sriany Hymenial nooses will be
adjusted beneath the Christmas
mistletoe we of course can't
say but the weddings during
the interim alluded to promise
$o eclipse all records both in
numbers and in the prominence
t the contracting parties and
the brilliancy ith which the
several matrimoniaf' events will
kelebrated. And these Christ-
f brides .are all sucb bonnie
