STORY OF A WEDDING DRESS
Peculiar Way in which a Gown In
tended for . wedding of a Hundred
Years Ago Is 10 he Worn alta MAJ RI 'ge
Ceremony Of the Near Failure.
(Boston Transcript

A rather Interesting story Is being told
in regard to IA wedding that VIII OCCUR in
the near future. The bride-to-be. wish
ing to have wedding dress different
from the conventional white satin, deter
mined to be married in a gown which "a
relative had secured during trip 10 In
dla. The dress WAS of the finest muslin
and was beautifully embroidered and of
texture that was practically impossible to
duplicate now. In having the gown
made up it was found that there was not
material enough TO make the sleeves of
the high -necked bodice. Various stores
in Boston We're visited, but without sue
cess. Nowhere could be found material
that came anywhere near dupli eating the
material of which the dress was made.
Then it was that the interesting part of
this story came to light. The dress was
taken to a well-known cleansing estab-
lishment, and, after 1t had been put
through the usual process, the owner hap
pened to tell one OF the young women
employees of her predicament in not being
able to secure any material suitable for
the sleeves. The employee told her GUS
toner that she believed she could help
her out of her difficulty.
1t seems that about one hundred years
ago b eacon-street belle Of that period
was preparing her wedding trousseau, the
wedding gown OF which was of a peculiar
Indian muslin. For some reason or other
this intended wedding did not take place,
and the gown was given to the maid OF
the young woman who had believed she
would DO married in it This maid was
the godmother of the mother of the EN-
ployee referred to above, and the gown in
question had finally come into the pos
session of the latter. The two gowns
We're placed side by side, and, while not
exactly alike, the difference was SO slight
after some diplomacy on the part Of the
would-be purchaser, she secured posses
sion of enough material to complete the
making of her own gown, and departed
in a most happy frame of mind
So the gown, or a portion OF it, intend
ed to take part in the wedding of a
Beacon-street belle OF hundred years
ago will be used soon in another Boston
wedding.

HARBoR MASTER.
ma. Duties as Prescribed BY she city
Government.

Mayor Robinson has signed the ordi
nance adopted at the last city govern
ment meeting relative TO rules and regu-
iations governing the harbor master.
Rule ii reads as follows;
All vessels entering the upper harbor
not intending to be conveyed to some
wharf Immediately shall DO anchored ON
the southerly side OF line ranging with
the black buoy on the hreakwater ana a
white buoy ON westerly course, thence
on a line Ringing with said white buoy
and the southeasterly end Of the draw
of Portland bridge.
The new clause to this rule is rs fol-
lows:
| No vessel exoeeding $50 tons burden
shall anchor above the line OF the Port
land " Cape Elizabeth ferry, drawn
from wharf to wharf at the northerly
end Of same.
| A Commercial street man said:
although the above makes plain the
wishes of the city authorities In the mat
ter It does not necessarily remedy the
trouble. By dredging that part of the
harbor to depth of ofeet the govern
ment would Seem to indicate that
1t intended shipping to uss 1t so 1t viii
be interesting to see what the result will
be IL big vessel anchors there and re
fuses to move when the harbor master,
orders. can't see that the harbor mas
ter has the authority to move vessels
that anchor above the line.
"The towbcat captains say they do not
drop the vessels these out of spite. but
because the captains insist upon 1t them
selves.
"On the other hand the yaohtsmen
claim that the captains Of the towboats
anchor their lows in close proximity to
the yachts just out Of spite, and that dam
age to the pleasure fleet is of frequent &C.
currence.
"Yachtsmen claim that 1t Is for the In
terest of the city to provide n suitable
anchorage for the visiting yachts as their
owners leave considerable money In
Portland On the other hand, the tow
boat captains asks which Is the more
Important, the comfort OF the yachts
during the summer, or the interests of
Portland's shipping the year roundS
"trhere are two sides to the question
and 1t seems To me that there is no neces-
sity of the big schooners departing from
the custom they have followed for years;
that OF lying down In the roads. They
can anchor there just as well as not,
while the yachts cannot"

THE HONE.
EATING AT BED-TIME.

Was formerly considered very Injurious;
but at the present time 1t Is favored by
some of our hest physicians, especially
for invalids who are troubled with sleep
lessness. Food of simple kind wi II in
duce sleep. The sinking sensation felt
by those who cannot sleep is often simply
a call for food, while wakefulness is often
a symptom of hunger. Crafty this de-
sire, and you win soon fall asleep. The
feeble win be stronger at dawn II they
partake OF light food before going to bed.
Some twelve or fourteen hours lie be-
tween supper and breakfast and by that
time the fuel of the body has become ex-
pended. When prolonged wakefu iness
attacks us and our thoughts go hither and
yon, and we have no more CO 1trol over
them than over the wind, the wisest
thing to do Is to eat a cracker or two, or
a cold biscuit, or some bread and milk;
give the stomach something to do, and
this will draw the surplus blood from the
brain, and you Will soon fall asleep.
ssSCENTED BREAD AND BUTTER.
Informal afternoons, such as a thimble
party, the meeting of small church
society, "a day. or an sat Ehome," call
for very light refreshments, coming as
they do after luncheon or midday dinner,
and before supper or six o'clock dinner.
A cup of hot tea nicely brewed is CRATE
fully accepted at these affairs. Pass with
it wafer thin or any kind OF thin crack
er, or, better still, very thin slices of
brown bread and butter. In summer or
spring the bread and butter may De
