A DOE MAIDEN'S BRIDAL.

"A wedding is always an event of al
most national Importance and is really
a most picturesque ceremony writes the
author Of "Oom Paul's People, of 1.-The
Boer Girl Of South Africa in the January
Ladies' Home Journal. The friends and
relatives may arrive a day or two ahead
of time, according to the distance to be
travelled, and the Boer homestead be-
comes a most animated scene. Scores Of
oX-teams are scattered about the sur
rounding plain; negro servants are bust
ling around: guns are fired pr~omiscuOus-
ly whenever more guests arrive; dancing.
feasting, and coffee drinking are carried
on in the cottage n everywhere around
it; impromptu shooting matches and
horse races are decided, and joy IS uncon-
fined. After the ceremony and after all
the guests have kissed the bride and
bridegroom, the wedding feast is eaten,
and then the guests spend the night in
dancing and playing games. 1t would be
a breach of etiquette for any Of the guests
to depart before dawn. and inded, the
fiddler's music md the sound made by
the dancing fest are often heard until
noon of the following day. The wedding
tour consists Of a journey to the cottage
and farm which the husband has secur-
ed from his father, and which adjoins the
! old homestead"

that country was opened up, hundreds

of thing is bound to have hard horse

those women don't know about running
farms isn't worth reporting to the de-

are northern women; and by the way
