Her Mothers Advice.


A Harlem girl was recently married
TO a young man who was unfortunate
enough to be cross-eyed. fact which
annoyed the girls mother to some ex-
tent.
But as love laughs at locksmiths,
1t found no trouble in laughing at
mothers-in-law, and SO they were mar
ried.
After the wedding the happy couple
were making preparations to go on a
short honeymoon, and when all was in
readiness the girls mother called her
daughter to one side and said:
Nov, Mary Jane, want to give you
a little sound advice. In the first
place, be the boss. Make Peter under
stand that he's got to do as you say.
Don't take any sass from him, and
don't let him run aroun after other
women. And for mercy's sake, Mary
Jane. don't have any cross-eyed ba-
bies."

White for Wedding Wear.

People may not know that the choice
Of white for wedding dresses is com

Roman brides wore yellow, and in
most eastern countries pink is the

and most Of our Plantagenet and Tudor
queens were married in this vivid hue,
which ID still popular in parts Of Brit

1T MAS NOT An OPAL.
BAD Luck. the Cause of N hich T..
still a Matter of Doui,t.

From the Chicago Record.
Here is story showing how 10 account
for bad luck:
A man was shaking dice in store. He
lost.
NO wonder" said a bystander. You're
wearing an opal. You never will have
luck
This set the man TO thinking -Four days
later he slipped in getting off a street car
and sprained his ankle.
This decided him. He gave the pin 10 a
friend who was on the board OF trade. and
who was too hard-headed to entertain amy
fool notions about the number H. or bla *
cats, or cross-eyed girls with red hair.
Nevertheless, when this board of trade
man lost over sl0.D1 on wheat he Toe gan
to worry. He didn't care much for the
pin anyway, ana so one day when a Young
man i'm his office admired the fire in tLr
stone, he said, Take ii along. if you like
The young man overwhelmed him with
thanks Then he waited, with guilty
knowledge, to see what would happen tG
the young man. He did not have TO wait
long. The very next week the cmploye
was taken i'll, and he missed four days al
the office.
The board of trade man was troubled in
conscience he told his young friend
about the opal pin and the superstition at
taching TO it, and the employe. after de-
liberation. decided that he would give the
pin to his girl.
The opal did very rapid and effective
work after Ii became the property of the
young woman. On the second day after
she began to wear il she ignited a curtain
in attempting to light the gas. The cur
tain was destroyed and the young woman
burned both of her hands in attempting TO
eNtinguish the blaze.
The young man who had given the stone
to her felt called upon to apologize.
Perhaps il WAS that opal I CAV. you,'
said he. You know an opal * suppose,
