To be married will be for this year, at
any rate, more expensive luxury than
ever it was. The price of the most indis-
pensible and time-honored adjunct of
wedding, orange flowers, cannot fail to be
enhanced by the recent ravages among the
orange trees in the south of France. Last
year they suffered severely from blight,
and this year an almost unexampled frost
and snow has killed many of the young
shoots which had survived. The result will

She had long been one of the family and
was greatly esteemed by those who knew

Mr.. Herring that he should express himself
so confidently that he would never see hi
