PREFER To BE WED
IN THE COUNTRY
Brides Like Early Autumn Nuptials
Ceremony fastened to Avoid
Formal Affair In City-Frolics On
the Lawn.

| The charm of a country wedding is be-
ing felt more and more by the fashion
able world. and there is little doubt but
that the greater number of those that
nave places out of town prefer to cele-
brate their nuptials there. In the coun-
try there seems to be more of the spirit
OF romance and good fellowship. There
Is a chance for everyone to thoroughly
solemnity and stiffness the vows are
spoken in the church. the breakfast at the
house is invariably followed by frolic on
the lawn and verandas and in it the
bride not unfrequently joins.
Lately, at a prominent wedding at
Stamford, Conn. the breakfast was served
on the lawn. under the trees and by the
lake. The bride just before leaving her
guests, and still in her shimmering white
gown. was surrounded by her brides
maids. BY one of them she was blind
{. ring as she threw her bouquet. Within
its center was hidden a ring. and the girl
that caught the flowers was said to be
predestined by fate to be the next bride.
Ihe custom is a German one, but loses
nothing by crossing the great sea. and is
unusually pretty when practiced amid
such gay surroundings.
Many brides now choose to drive off
with the groom for their honeymoon in a
small open trap. drawn by some pet horse
or their own, instead of shutting them
selves up in the formidable coach of not
SO very long ago. Surely this is starting
hfe's journey more pleasantly, One gay
young bride was recently heard to say
that nothing would induce her not to go
with her pony to the station on her we'd
ding day. That she should. at least have
the consciousness of holding the reins at
the beginning. In this instance there was
also unge of the pathetic about this
little journey. as the man she had chosen
was not Croesus. and afterwards the
pony was to be sold. 1t was, therefore
her last drive with him.
y number of little novelties have lately
appeared at the breakfasts. and they
greatly help out the fun. On the side
board. or in the hall there are piled up
innumerable little white satin bags They
are shaped like meal bags. and contain a
handful of rice. Each guest takes one
with the wedding cake and he is there
for prepared to contribute his share to the
veritable shower of rice that falls upon
the departing pair. Some special good
fortune is said to hang over the thrower
II the rice from his hand actually alights
upon the bride. Dainty white satin Slip
pers filled With rice. and queer little shoes
are among the table decorations and
favors.
AT Tuxedo. not long ago, a beautiful
girl was married on the veranda. i, had
truly been transformed into a bower by
the use of smilax and palms. and the en-
tire fesuvity was out of doors. When she
and the groom drove off, the band plaved
Just One Girl" and the chorus was
heartily Joined in by almost every voice
present.

HOT WEATHER HATS.
Flexible As a Cap, and Combine
Smartness With Comfort.

Let US be comfortable is the motto
by which all mankind dresses in August.
and every year the American man is
leaning more and more TO exhibit simple
common sense in the selection of his
summer wardrobe. 1t is not so very long
ago the well regulated New York or Bos-
ton man would have blushed at the very
idea of the pongee coat and waistcoat
combination that has recently grown so
popular. There are all manner of recon-
mendations TO be urged for these gar
ments- They are not only supremely cool
but good pongee rebounds from wrinkles
like rubber ball. it washes like linen
and wears like broadcloth.
The men in India We're the first TO dis

and now the American tailors turn our

cream or twin brown tones of this orient
al SILK Coats of il are cut blazer shane
the lapels faced with silk and buttoned
back on the shoulders and plainly cut
bone buttons. to exactly match the shade
of silk, appear on the coat. Wooden
moulds covered with pongee usually do
slightly reinforced with a muslin fac
ing. In the country a pair of white
flannel or duck trousers and pongee upper
garments creates a costume as refreshing
to sight and sensation as a woman'S mus
lin frock.
One last and telling argument in the
pongees favor is that, though it may re-
quire frequent washing. a laundress of
the most modest capacities can put 1t
through the tub and ironing board tri-
umphantly. 1t needs no starch nor fancy
ironing. Rubbed through tepid water
and soapsuds and pressed before quite dry
it turns up fresh as pocket handkerchief
and inviting as palm leaf fan.
Hot Weather Hats.
With their pongee garments many SEN
sible men who are getting through their
vacations wear the specially invented sea-
side hat. The crown of il put together
in stitched sections. is made of a species
of tough light grass cloth. in color not
unlike the eastern silk above mentioned
This is trimmed with an up curling brim
of clear blue or red felt that is stiffened
with stitching. which does not prevent IL
from being pulled comfortably as a CAPS
visor down over the eyes, pushed up be-
hind, in fact, bent to suit every wtlim
of the wearer.
What men find of greatest virtue in
the improved seaside hat is its voluntary
Willingness to stick on in 81 high wind

basket of flowers and fruits, which is nm

substituted small green tinted glass Jar,
with tght-httins cover. such as are used
for compotes or sealed fruits Into this
jar a number of small cheese cloth sacks
mad been packed, each one of which held
about two teaspoonfuis of tea. The sacks
were some two inches square. The cloth
had been rinsed through water so that

loom. On the outside of the jar was
pasted label of white paper. on which
was written in bold script capitals, deeply
shaded, these lines:
Though skies be charged and all is new.

y cup o kindness cheers your heart"
The acrostic of the initial letters is evil

given its gracious influence. Down in

SOME STOMACH EXPERIMENTS.

1t depends on how your food is cooked

are harder to digest than raw eggs, and
that hard-boiied eggs are easier 10 digest
than either. for they are digested in two
