WHAT IS PAID THE MINISTER FOR HIS
SERVICES IN PERFORMING THE MAR
RAGE CEREMONY.

What the groom pays the preacher for tying the
connubsl knot is frequently subject Of coDjec
ture and speculation. As the fee s not fixed by
law, but left optional with the groom, II would bt
expected 20 vary as men by nature differ in theil
ideas Of compensation, or in the latitude existing
in the human family between hberality and par
simOny. Some are liberal TO prodigality, while
others are afflicted with an economy bordering
upon raScality In our large cities, where great
fortunes are made and where people are fond oil

to favorlte minister; but in the country, where
people are less pretentous there is ess disposition

vouch for their truth:

groom motioned the minister aside and inquired

shilling and, handing 1t to the minister, inquir.

minister, at the same time he was prompted to re.
turn him sixpence In change.
Another minister OF our city who has had ex.
tensive experience In joining hants, relates the
following:
After the ceremony and the party were about to
leave, the groom handed the minister a sealed
envelope. It contained a three cent piece That
chap deserved good charivan.
But the climax Of meanness has yet to be told.
The bride and groom came In an open buggy un.

and asked to be "spliced." This being done he
