Don't Care for Wedding Expenses.

Polanders and Italians are very econ
omic so far. as dress and food are con-
cerned, but they spend money freely for
beer and whiskey. 1t is only on we'd
ding occasions that they don't care for
expenses and the bride "togs out" in
silk. The to-be-bride-and-groom and
from four to eight or ten friends go to
the stores together and select the lady's
dress, shoes, hat, &C., and they buy the
best to be had. The prospective groom
pays the bill. Usually, especially at
Polish weddings, dance is kept up
from one to two days and every man
who is present is supposed to dance
with the bride, for which privilege he
pays $l.00 every time he dances With
her. The money thus paid goes TO the
groom and he pays all wedding ex-
penses, beer, &C., and In many cases
has money enough left to buy every
thing necessary for house keeping.
