Wedding BIunders and Eccentric

into requisition in the service. AS for

Sometimes more serious difficulties
occur. Some ladies have had an al
most nnconquerable reluctance to use
the word ''obey;" one or two, If their
own statements arc to be accepted,
have ingeniously constructed the word
'nobcy." The word, however, has
still to be formally admitted into the
language. There was one girl, who
was being married by n very kindly
old Clergyman, who absolutely refused
to utter the word "obey." Tho min
istcr suggested that, if she were un-
willing to utter tho 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 without proceed
ing any further, the recalcitrant young
person consented to "obey."
The difficulty, however, is not al
ways made on the side of the ladies.
