forefathers to wear the carriers of a
pretty maiden either on the hat or
knee, says the New York Press. Brides
usually wore on their legs a host of
gay ribbons, to be distributed after the
marriage ceremony among the bride
groom's intimate friends. The piper at
the wedding dance never failed to tic

stem Of his bagpipe. The Lombard

their carriers.
