Tie Flower Idea at Weddings.

There are to be half a dozen sweJ
weddings Immediately after Easter,
and in honor of the YernaI season most
of them are to be flower weddings, for
which, as it happens, the names of the
prospective brides give the cue. One
of these young women is known to her
friends as Lily, and the lace Of her
beautiful gown and veil Is made in pat
terms of wreaths of lily of the valley.
She will carry in her hand a great
nosegay of the little white odorous
blossoms tied with long floating white
satin ribbons. The six bridesmaids
viii be all in green and white, the
first one wearing green Of the delicate
tint of the lime leaves, and each one
after her wearing a slightly darker
shade, so that the dress of the last viii
be Of the clear dark Ely-Ieaf green.
The dresses viii be made with under
skirts of green silk over which falls a
straight full skirt of white lace, the
green MORE DirectOire coats opening
over lace waistcOats and trimmed with
big silver buttons; the hats are of
white Leghorn with green fea theirs, and
the gloves and slippers are of white
suede; there viii not be a touch of
color about the whole party except
white and shades of green, and all Of

Mary, say that I am not we'll, " said
mistress to a neWly-engaged servant.
"I'm afraid I ate little too much of
that rich pudding for dinner, and it,
or something else, has brought on a
severe headache. I am going to lie
down"
A few moments later the mistress,
from her room near the head of the
stairs, heard Mary say to two aristo-
cratic ladies who called for the first
time:
"Yes'm. Mrs. B. is to home. but
she eat so much pudding for dinner

vaults carried down to the side walls,
and these are Ornamented with shells,
garlands, and ribbons in marble of
lighter tint The principal feature of
the hall is the fireplace, above which is
a hemicycle containing the gracious fig
ure of Hospitality, with two smaller at
tendant figures. These were modelled
by Mr.. Augustus Saint Gaudens and
are carved in low relief Balancing
this panel Is another opposite, contain
ing an heraldric emblem with it's leg
end in marble mosaics.
Where the grand staircase enters the
walls are carried up two flights to a
ceiling composed of panels filed with
flowing ornament in relief. The walls
are lined half way up with Sienna
marble. The stairs are marble and the
balustrade is also of marble cut in
some different design. But the beau
tiful and salient feature of the stair
way is the clock placed in the wall
above the wide spaces of the lower
landing. This is carved in the marble
paneling in the form of square made
of the signs of the zodiac In low relief.
These indicate the hours. In the cen
ter of the panel, amid waving silver
: rays, are the clock hands, and above
these the silver-rayed pendulum
flashes across the creamy marble. A
table of white holly and hall seat re-
produce as nearly as possible the tints
of the marble.
The drawing-room consists of three
rooms, or rather it is one room sepa-
rated by panels and pillars into three
divisions. The pillars, pilasters, and
wainscoting are mahogany, but the
wood is everywhere only the basis for
ornament. This consists of light,
graceful designs, In inlays Of white
wood and mother of pearl, and amid it's
interlacings the monogram 81. Y. The
wall panels are hung with light yellow
silk, covered with an all-over design
embroidered in red, or with these tints
reversed. The furniture Is upholstered
IN the same manner. The mantels
make panels of great beauty. The in
lays are fit for museum pieces; the fire
facings are of Mexican onyx. The
.dining-room is opposite the great stair
case, and is entered through double
oak doors. One end of the room is re-
cessed by a perforated screen of oak
into a small breakfast-rOom. The
mantel is of Verona marble, cop
led from an old italian piece, and
has a procession of buffaloes covered
ia low relief as a frieze. The walls
are wainscoted to the ceiling in small
panels, plain, except where they merge
into the frieze as German legends
written in inlays. The ceiling is spanned
bv cross beams, and within these are
color decorations of garlands and
7women's faces. The end of the room is
paneIed to the ceiling IN Sienna marble
Above the mantel there are three fig
ures-"Joy," Hospitality" and Mod
Grafton The popularity Of these
figures is that they are full length, but
seated, the arms clasping the knees
in this manner they form bold medal
lions that are connected by broad rib
bons. On each side of the mantel are
inches lined with marble, which has
been carved to represent dolphins
