with the largest part near the elbow
suggestion OF drapery of silk and lace
like a blouse. 1t is a beautiful gown,
and the lace veil worn with it is the one
which the Duchesses of Marlborough
have worn for many generations. 1t is
piece of rare family lace, and was
presented to Miss COnsuelo by the
Dukes mother last spring at Blenheim,
when the engagement really took place.
The decorations of the bridal process
sion have not yet been decided upon.
Mrs. Willy K is peculiar in one re-
spect She wants everything absolute
perfection. She has given orders for
thousands Of red roses for the church
red roses and palms But if these are
not as beautiful upon that day as the
lilies that are to be had, the church is
to be trimmed with lilies.
An effect is to be mate at Colonial
simplicity, as far as the floral decOra-
tons are concerned. 1t is a fact that
at several very grand weddings the
flowers were many, but not as fresh
and beautiful as they might be. Flor
lists say where there are to be four walls
entirely covered with a certain shade
Of red roses that 1t is impossible to have
perishable are they that many are
whithered ere the event
AT this wedding carnations and ferns
are one alternative, roses and ferns
another, and white flowers a third
At the rehearsal there were thousands
Of crysanthemums and roses. The
roses were carried by the bridesmaids
and the crysanthemums stood in pots
along the isle, to make a floral path
way.
GIVING HER AWAY.
The question of the giving away Of
tn bride has not yet been settled. Her
father rehearsed the ceremony with her
and the bridal party two days ago, and,
in fact several times this week, as a
wedding of so much ceremony needs
many a rehearsal. But the last day or
two friends Of Mrs. Alva have been urg-
ing her to give her own daughter away,
and there is a possibility that she will
do 1t. Miss Consuelo has a preference
for her fathers supporting arm, but she
is only the central figure, and has not
great deal TO say, even in the matter
Of her own wedding.

to be observed in the wedding. The
decorations OF the brides dress are or
ange blossoms But in the midst of the
pale flowers there will shine one rudy
ounce flower, the English emblem Of
prosperity and abundance for future
generations. Not many of the MarlbOr-
ough family jewels win travel over, but
the groom has been lavish in gifts. One
of these is a watch as large round as a
horse-chestunt and entirely incrusted
with diamonds This he bought abroad,
it is said His bride IS to carry it On her
wedding day for "the one thing new,
gift from lover true" which is neces-
sary for happiness.
Another little fancy Is the lining Of
the wedding dress, which is silk Of
palest blue. Mrs Vanderbilt is from the
South, where Old Mammy's nursery
tales are breathed in with the air Of the

with cool, kind fingers, and makes you
understand that just so long as you
are going to suffer, just so long viii
your friend stay with you. l think
there are more kind people in this
world than cruel ones. I don't believe
anybody really starts out with the in
tentiOn of being cruel, but first there is
little worry, and then there is a little
envy, and then there is a cross word,
and then there is a malicious word, and
then there is the wicked deed which
would not have been done if the sinner
had only taken time to think it all out.
YOU HAVE YOUR WORRY AND I

and it seems hard just when we are
troubled that that somebody else should
be very happy, and we look at the happy
people, and suddenly grow mean and
nasty and say something that, in a lit
tie while, we are ashamed Of We are
all Of us such children, so easily made
happy and so easily turned into dis
agreeable beasts, rather than lovable
men and women. And we never know
until we are quite alone how much we
depend on each other. Try to think
what life would be if, to-day, when you
are full of joy and gladness because
something good has come to you, think
what would happen if you had nobody
to joy with you! If there wasn't a hui
man being who was glad because you
were glad. Why, it would be worth
while to hire a messenger boy by the
hour simply for sympathetic purposes.
EARTHLY AND HEAVENLY
FRIENDSHIPS.
When one is sad there must be some
body to condole, else the sadness will be
intensified beyond human endurance.
| have have always thought that an
idealized good fellowship would exist
in the hereafter, and that the people
who care for each other here would have
that love and that sympathy intensified
eternally. Earthly friendships will be
made beautiful, because they would be
approved Of and blessed by that friend
of humanity who loved his neighbor so
well that He gave His life for him. It
is a dear old world, neighbor-and the
neighboring itself is good and great and

The green eye OF suspicion, touched
with envy, is cast upon all visiting for
eigners who take away the most graz
cious Of American heiresses. But in this
case the eye must lack suspicion. even
If it cannot rid itself Of its jealous hue.
For, by way of money matters. be lt

the Duke settled an immense sum am
nually upon his future Duchess, and
made over to her all the hereditary

There is the sympathetic friend, who
tells YOU in the kindest words, how
sorry he is for your trouble, and who
comes when happy days are to the fore
and is gleeful because you are glad.
Then there is that other friend who,
when YOU are overwhelmed with grief,
cannot say a ward, but takes your hand
and looks into your eyes, and the eyes
do the sDeaking. And you know that
your friend is sorry for you, and your
heart almost grows glad as you realize
that there is in the world somebody
who if ne were able, would take all
your worry away. Then there is the
other friend. that one who, when your
head is racked with pain, touches 1t

Since Malone has appeared at the head

reform our election laws, but whose real
object is 20 give Malone another grip
upon this proud old Commonwealth, and
10 foist himself upon her people. as their
representative in the Senate of the United
States, We propose 10 give. from time 10

no one may bee fooled into the belief that

which would put the State absolutely
under his control. as he attempted TO do
some years ago. and In which ne was
only thwarted by the manly stand Of the
famous Big Four" We give below
Sketch of Malone as Democrat
taken from a letter, written from Bos-
ton to the Lynchburg V.rginian. by the
late Charles W. Button. for many years
editor Of that paper, I'm the campaign OF
1889, between Mckinney and Malone for
the GOvernOrsnip.

so as 20 be distinctive that the ignorant
negro voters. unable 10 read. might not
be deceived. 10 was the duty Of this
writer, then chairman of the Executive
Committee of the Conservative party Of
Lynchburg, 10 provide the tickets for
that party. and he did so. But on cleo
tion-day, IL was discovered that a bogus
Republican ticket was being imposed upon
the negro voters. IL was a skillful imita-
ton Of the genuine ticket. and headed
"Rcpubl.can Ticket" while IL bore, from
first 10 last, the names Of the opposing
candidates That was one of Mahone's
tricks, perpetratel without the knowledge
and consent of the chairman. who never
saw or heard Of these tickets until they
were being voted by deluded negro Re
publicans. Some of them are in my pos
session now.
But that was not all Of Mahone's
method or Illustrating MS IDEA or Tree

service OF the company, all of the negroes

lbl,. The Dog Reason?

Il am sure" says a correspondent
you will enjoy this story OF dog
intelligence, which has the merit or
being true Schneider was a large full
blooded handsome setter. He was very
fond Of being with the boys, and one day
they took him when they were going
bathing. They bathed in pond which
was crossed by railroad bridge carry
ing one track. While the boys bathed,
Schneider sat on tie tack and watched
them. Suddenly 70 the horror or the
boys. a train appeared. There was no
time for the dog 10 get off the bridge
and IL was too high for him 10 jump.
The boys turned away 10 avoid the signt
OF the dogs death. and after the train
had passed. looked about with shudder
at what they expected 10 behold. To
their amaZement the dog trotted OF the
bridge entirely unhurt. The engineer OF
the train explained afterward how
the dog had escaped. AS the train APP
preached. Schneider evidently saw that
his situation was desperate. and quickly
thought out this only way or safety. lie
steuDcd over the rail tc the projecting
ends OF the sleepcrs. laid himself down
as fat as he possibly could. and let the
train pass over him. The engineer saw u;
all. and as the train passed he looked
back and saw that the lowest step 1usi
grazed the dogs back. Could a human
being have reasoned more correctly ana
acted more quickly than the dog?'--
