touched found it incumbent on them

But when l raised my voice at certain

Tradition of Orange Blossoms.
Like all familiar customs whose orr
gin is lost in antiquity, the wearing OF
orange blossoms at wedding is ac-
counted for III various ways. Among
other stories is the following pretty
legend from Spain. printed in Kate
Fields Washington: An African prince
presented a Spanish king with mag
nificcnt orange tree, whose creamy,
waxy blossoms and wonderful fra
GRANGE excited the admiration of the
whole court. Many begged in vain for
branch of the plant, but foreign am
bassador was tormented by the desire
to introduce so great curiosity to
his native land. He used every posi-
BILE means, fair or foul, to accomplish
his purpose, but all his efforts coming
to naught, he gave up in despair. The
fair daughter of the court gardener
was loved by a young artisan, but lack
ed the dot which the family considered
necessary in bride. One day. chanc-
ing to break off spray of orange
blossoms, the gardener thoughtlessly
gave it to his daughter. Seeing the
coveted prize in the girls hair the willy
ambassador promptly OHefeu neF
sum sufficient for the desired dowry,
provided she gave him the branch and
say nothing about it. Her marriage
was soon celebrated, and on, the way
to the altar, in grateful remembrance
of the source of all her happiness, she
secretly broke off another bit of the
lucky tree to adorn her hair. Whether
the poor court gardener lost his head
in consequence of his daughters treach-
cry, the legend does not state, but
many lends now know the wonderful
tree, and ever since that wedding day
orange blossoms have been considered
! fitting adornment for bride.
