A pretty wedding at Tarrytown on

with burning crimson and brown and
yellow maple leaves. Bittersweet and

fronds
Tho bride wore simple white silk
empire frocls with 4 long tulle veil.
Late white roses were her only orna-
mcnts. The maid of honor wore an
empire gown striped in pale yellow and
white silk, with white shoes and
white felt Gainsborough hat trimmed
with heavy, dropping yellow plumes.
The four bridesmaids wore brown
and cream-colored Empire dresses with
brown Gainsborough hats loaded with
white plumes. They carried lunches of

changed it to Children Whom 7 Have
Known" Some time later, when the
Scribners had the same volume in hand
in this country, Mrs. Burnett conceived
the idea of adding another chapter, en-
titled 1.-THE One I Knew the Best of

two in her own childhood. This idea
pleased the publishers very much, and
she began the additional chapter.
MISS WILKINS IMAGINATION.
Miss Mary E. Wilkins. whose short
stories of rural life in New England
have caused her name to be set up be-
side that of Guy de Maupassant, i'm
presses a visitor as character
who might have stepped out
of one of her own stories. and in
deed she does put herself into her
own stories. for, though she is set down
as one of the most real of reaiists, she
never consciously writes of real char
acters and has never but once attempted
the description of a real scene. Her
characters are all wrought in her mag
nation and are as real TO her as if they
literally stood for their portraits IN
like the characters created by Mrs. De-
land, Miss Wilkins people never sur
prise her When she has once grasped
character she knows 1t through and
through, and can tell instantly whether
it would do this or that thing under
certain conditions.
Miss Wilkins does not read stories
much: she is SO sensitive TO external In
huencc> that she unconsciously ini-
tates, or, to be more precise, uncon-
sciously takes on the character of the
author whom she reads This phase of
Miss Wilkins mind would make an in
teresting study. One day she was an
swering letter Of lady whose daugh-
ter was visiting Miss Wilkins. The
daughter CHANGED to look over her host
ess' shoulder and was amazed to see
how much her pennanship looked like

at imitation. Afterward, on watching
herself, she found that she initiated not
only the handwriting of her correspon-
dents, but their literary style as well.
Some years ago, when she was 4 young
girl, she wrote story in competition
for fifty dollar prize offered by the
Boston Budget. Her story: The shad-
ow Family" won the prize, but Miss
Wilkins now wishes she had never writ
ten it, for she says she can trace in its
style the direct influence of Dickens,
whom she was reading very constantly
at that time.
MRS. WARDS EXPERIENCES.
Mrs. Elizabet Stuart Phelps Ward,
although unquestionably a brilliant
and highly cultivated woman, is, above
these qualities, a good woman, as
everybody who has read her books
must have felt A gentle, shy, delicate
