HYMENEAl HINTS.

GUESTS depart directly after the bride and
bridegroom.
WEDDING cards must never be sent; they
christening cards.
TIE bride and bridesmaids bouquets are
still presented to them by tho bridegroom,
and arrive at their destination on the we'd
ding morning.
THE first to arrive at the church is the
bridegroom, accompanied by his best man,
and lie stands at The bottom of the chancel,
waiting the arrival of the bride.
REFRESHMENTS at a wedding breakfast
are very elastic. They need not soar above
tea, coffee, cake and sandwiches, or they
may include poultry, game, sweets and
champagnc-in fact nearly every thing one
would have at a ball supper.
WHEN the person who gives away the
bride is not her father he meets her at the
door of the church and escorts her to the
building, but he does not accompany her in
the carriage. Her mother is the proper per.
san to do this in the absence of the father.
A WIDOW can not wear orange blossoms,
either as {; wreath or on her dress or in her
bouquet she must not wear a long bridal
vail, except she wears it over her bonnet,
and She can not have bridesmaids or we'd
ding favors. She must not continue to wear
her first ring.
AFTER the bridal pair have left the church
the next person to hurry away is the bride g
mother, who goes homo at once in order
That she may receive her guests. This may
be mentioned as almost the only instance
in which it is good form for hostess to pre-
cede her guests

THE OLD PROFESSOR.

He's out-dated like his books,
And he has old-fashi0ned hook9
To his specs.
In the alphabet Of years
He knows all the characters
Down to x.
You can read them in his face,
In the wrinkles you can trace
ABB, G;
And upon his marble brow
Age is chiseling, even now,
Y and u.
His long locks are white and thin
And his temples sunken in,
Like his cheeks;
And his once sonorous voice
Makes hesitating noise
When he speaks.
or the village and it's chat
He was once the autocrat,
In his prime;
Now the gossips nod and beck
At the melancholy wreck
or his time.
His has been lonely life,
Without children, home or wife
Boarding round
For the rose and lilies blow
Where his darling lleth low
In the ground.
And it seems a little queer
He should wear bOuttOnniere
When they bloom,
Yet he bushes like girl
When the dainty buds unfurl
Their perfume.
And he looks across the rim
OF his specs into dim
Paradise,
For the tears, in spite OF him,
Overflow the wrinkled brim
OF his eyes.
For he has an odd conCeit
That sometime, somewhere they'll meet
Youth and maid;
And his dreams are always young,
And the hopes he lives among
Never fade.
And I've often heard him say
In his sad, oldfashoned way,
With q smile:
II shall not have long to wait,
God will make the crooked straight
Afterwhile."
