The shops are showing lovely designs
in bridal stockings of white silk in open
work and embroidered effects.
. Lace wells worn, and they are I'M
deniably handsome, and, if family heir
looms, there is a touch of sentiment at
tached to their use; many brides, how
ever, prefer the tulle veil, either plain or
with a lace border, which is always sure
to be becoming.
A pretty idea is to attach one of the
jeweled gifts received by the BRIDE the
present of the bridegroom it may be if
suitable in form, to the big, fluffy bows
of tulle which ties the wedding bouquet.
Glace kid gloves are the smartest, al
though the suede gloves are worn.
The Game That Is Worth the Candle
There was never a rose without a thorn,
Never a cake that we ate and had,
The cow had ever a crumpled horn
To toss the maiden all forlorn
Until she was yet more sad.
The apples over the farmers wall
Were probably grated from Eden's tree,
But when we had eaten them after ALL
Trespassing somewhere about nightfaN,
They commonly failed to agree.
And love, my Phyllida, love, the rose,
Love, the apple that tempted Eve?-
Because of the thorn that about it grows
Because of the greenness that nothing
shows,
Apple and rose shall we leave?
No, my Phyllida, come what may,
Bleeding fingers or broken hearts;
Live and love for our little day,
Tear off armor and cast away
Shields against Cupid's darts!

The former affirms that it's effects are
distinctly aging; that those who are ad-
dicted to constant play acquire new lines
and wrinkles in an incredibly short space
of time: that there is a painful contract
ion of the brow that permanently mars
the smoothness, and a set look about the
mouth that is not becoming, and effects
the expression afterward If the fair de-
voices of the game once realize this truth
they will probably hesitate about spending
six afternoons a week over their card Ia
bles, as many Of them have done this
winter. But this is not all. 1t not only
affects your beauty, mesdames. but it is
also, they say, very bad for your health.
One of the best whist players of her set

tor to pay any more, the constant strain
having proven too much for her nerves
1t is easy TO believe both assertions If
one watches a partie carree over the abb
sorbing game of the hour The interest
seems 10 be just as intense whether
money stake is played or not. The lines
of perplexed thought on the face and tine
nervous manner proves that the doctors
are right, and bridge whist played as 1t
often is now-to excess-might easily be
detrimental 90 both looks and health.
