One of the autumn brides appeared in
matronly dignity In a slashed. trained

with punches of hydrangeas. The train

side Of the skirt and on either side Of
the panel was q row of largo dark pearl
buttons The chemisettc, epaulets,
basque and frillings were of exception

that fastened the lace folds on tho
bosom was an enameled bunch Of
shaded blue and pink hydrangca. The
bonnet was in olive felt, with loops in
