left door of the church. 1t was such sur
prise that the wedding party should thus
separate that the audience did not at first
notice that two professions were stimuli
taneously making their way to the altar
The bride, on her fathers arm, entered
by the middle aisle, when her attendants
had accomplished about half the distance
up the right and left aisles. She was pre-
ceded by two ushers and her maid of honor
walking alone. another pair of ushers
closing the procession. AS the brides
maids reached the chancel they formed a
lane through which the bride slowly
passed, to be met at the altar steps by the
groom.
One New York husband has been cured
of the drink habit by his wife in a novel
manner. Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Munge lived
ait 430 West Thirty-sixth street. The cou-
pie have not been married long, and up
to one night last week their welded life
has been one long, blissful dream. On
that fateful night the young wife had a
rude shock Her spouse came home drunk
1t was the first time she had seen him
under the influence of liquor and, in fact,
it was the first announcement she had
that he drank Her presence of mind
came to her, and she was quick to act,
Pulling her husband from under the ia
ble where he had fallen, she shook him
in no gentle manner to wake him.
"Get out of my house. You don't belong
here" she said. 81 don't know you. My
husband is sober man. Pick up your hat
and go. You cannot stay here"
Mrs. Munge picked up his hat and coat,
and, after helping him on with them, led
him to the door.
do you mean to tell me that you are
not my wife?" he demanded.
"Why, certainly, I'm not your wife"
Then IN go and throw myself into the
river?' he said. He did not go to the riv-
er, though. but to the Thirty-seventh
street station.
MY wife doesn't know me because I'm
drunk" he told the sergeant, land 1 want
to be locked up
He was accommodated, and in the west
side court was discharged. Mrs. Munge
was cooking breakfast when there came
knock at the door. There stood her
husband, sober but pale.
Now you look like yourself again." said
Mrs. Munge, happily. 1T wasn't my
Frank who came here drunk Saturday
night"
And Munge, as he sat meelxly down to
breakfast, vowed never to drink again.
To look as pretty going as coming seems
to be the general feminine ambition this
winter, says the Chicago Times-Herald,
and the determination is noticed partic-
ularly in the arrangement of the hair. AS
much, If not more, attention is now paid
to line about the nape of the neck as to
outline of the hair on forehead and tenn
pies
The contour of the head is given serious
study, and all that tends to good balance
and graceful poise is accepted, while what
is unbecoming is rejected with prompt
tude that seems to foretell the emancipa-
ton of individual taste from the dialectics
of tyrannical fashion. To be beautiful is
the present delightful mode, regardless of
the how-and If not beautiful, at least
charming
There is no set style of couture this sea-
son. happily for ALL But an idea of suit
ability has asserted itself, and a variety
of styles, pretty and correct, for various
occasions are recognized.
No one of good taste thinks, for in
stance, of dressing her hair high on her
head and putting it out with ribbons and
feathers for the theater. The best-dressed
woman, with the consideration character
istic of good breeding, arrange the head
dress so as not to interfere in the least
with the view of those behind her. How
ever low, fiat ornaments are coming into
fashion for theater wear, and the uncover
ed or simply ornamented head has led our
women step nearer to the ideal theater
audience; that is, the one which, like the
English audience, appears with exquisite
formality in full dress
The odd waists and skirts that have
served so many women longer than they
should are becoming monotonous. Bod
ices are now made to match the skirts,
and are cut slightly low necked. More
care is taken of the toilet generally. The
attention paid to the dressing of the hair
| is attested to by the increased sale in tri-
pie looking glass Hardly any modish
woman is now without one, and, indeed,
It is almost impossible to dress the hair
perfectly, from all points of view, without
| the aid Of this multiplied reflection.
White tulle twisted over wire into low
spider bows is pretty. but difficult of ar
rangement. Colored velvet ribbon rosettes
make very striking hair ornaments; they
are charming with jeweled centers all but
concealed by the loops. Aigrettes, il worn
at all, are fine enough not to be annoy
ing. a perfectly bewitching one is made
