Wedding Blundcrs and Eccentric

The most common mistake of the
bride is to take of only one Of her
gloves, whereas both hands are brought
into requisilion in the service. As for
the men, they commit all kinds Of blum
ders and bunglings. ! have known
man. at that very nervous and trying
moment, follow clergyman within
the communion rails, and prepare to
take place opposite him. have
known man. when minister stretch
ed out his hand to unite those Of the
couple, take it vigorously in his own
and give 1t hearty shake.
Sometimes more serious difficulties
occur. Some ladies have had an al
most unconquerable reluctance to use
tn word 'obey;" one or two, if their
own statements are to be accepted,
have ingeniously constructed the word
'nobey." The word, however, has
still to be formally admitted into the
language. There was one girl, who
was being married by very kindly
old clergyman, who absolutely refused
to utter the word "obey." The min
lister suggested that, If she were UNI
willing to utter the word aloud, she
should whisper it to him; but the young
lady refused to accept even this kind
of compromise. Further, however,
than this, the clergyman refused to ac-
commodate her; but when he was fore
ed to dismiss them all withoutproceed-
ing any further, the recalcitrant young
person consented to "obey."
The difficulty, however, is not al
ways made on the side Of the ladies.
On one occasion the bridegroom wished
to deliver little Grafton qualifying his
VOW. and in describing in what sense
and to what extent he was using the
words Of the formula. He was, of
course, given to understand that moth
ing of this kind could be permitted.
There was one man who accompanied
the formula with soto voice remarks,
which must have been exceedingly dis
agreeable to the officiating minister.
He interpolated remarks after the fash
ion of Burchells "Fudger' with
this ring | thee wed; that's supersti-
ton" with my body | thee wor-
ship; that's idolatry." with all my
worldly goods thee endow; that's a
lie." 1t is wonder that such being
was not conducted out of church by the
beadle.
This puts one in mind of an anecdote
that is told of q man, who, in his time,
was member of the British Cabinet.
There was great discussion on the
question whether man can marry on
three hundred year. 'All | can say"
said the great man, sis that when 1
said, with all my worldly goods thee
endow, when all my debts were paid,
had 800 pence" Yes, my love-"
said his wife; "but then you had your
SPLENDID intellect" II didn't endow
you with that, ma'am," sharply re-
torted the right honorable husband.
