The Girl About to Marry.

TO the girl who asks my advice about
her wedding-that girl who is num-
bered by the hundreds, who has q
pleasant home, but small one, who
has many friends, and many more ac-
quaintances-I would say let your
marriage be quiet, having present At it
only those who are bound to you by
ties of blood or special feeling, and
then send out to all your acquaint tances
cards that announce your wedding,
and that tell where you are, and when
you will be happy to see whoever may
care enough for you to desire to wish
you happiness. as to her own self l
would suggest that she try and keep as
quiet as possible, TO have as little eX-
citement about her as is possible, aud
so gain the time to think out the i'm
portance of the ceremony which is to
come. l want her to think out all that
her VOWS mean, and to remember that
they are made before God, and that
His blessing is invoked upon her. /
certainly want her to look her pret-
tiest-that is her right-to look like a
sweet, white flower as she bids goOdby
to her girlhood and enter into that
new life, which should be always new.
and should be always sweet, and
which by her loving wisdom, may
grow happier and better as the days
and years pass.
