A number OF pretty stories are told OF
the origin Of the custom Of brides wear
ing orange blossoms In their wells, and
the use OF the flowers in that connection
has become so general that one always
associates the beautiful little buds with
a wedding IL Is seldom that one hears
Of orange blossoms being worn simply
as an ornament. without the added
fascination Of the sentiment or true
love.
The lovely little flower OF the sweet
Jasmine ia as suitable for the decoration
of a bride. however, as the more COM
mon flower of the orange Is. 1t was
used many years ago for this prrpose.
long before the orange blossoms be-
cane associated with weddings, apd the
fragrant jasmine became the symbol
of true love through a very pretty
love story IN ancient Tuscany. in Italy
A certain Duke of Tuscany, who pos
se2sed a beautiful garden filed with
rare flowers and tropical plants, pro-
cured a small slip OF the jasmine,
plant Of which he had never before
heard from a traveller who was re
turning from the warm countries OF
Asia and set IL among his most trea-
sured plants. II rooted and thriyed under
the care OF his gardener, and soon
grew TO be a good-szed shrub. The
Duke was very proud Of his rare plant.
and those interested In hor'ulturc
came from afar TO see Il, for there
was not such another in Europe: ana ne
was so fearful lest others might enjoy

her lover was not much richer, 50 they
were unable to marry. On the birthday
