IN THK CHURCH.

oh, that mine enemy might write
a book" might be rendered by GER
tain vivacious feminines ooh, that
mine enemy might have a church
wedding" for the last gives almost
as much chance for scathing criticism
as the first.
While one awaits the coming of
the bridal party here are some of the
comments that are heard:
"What do you suppose he ever
saw in her? ?"
"Well, now, dear, you know her
upper teeth are even.'
1T seems to me they were mighty
stingy with their decorations. Every
one of those palms looks as if it had
a bad case of anemia."
Good gracious look Look at
that gown coming up the aisle now.
Did you ever see such fright She
lette frock. Bride or groom's family,
which do you think? Make your
bets quickly, ladies. Just as thought
-groom's. By their noses you shall
know them"
"No, 1 never thought she was
pretty, but I always felt sorry for
her, and I certainly am glad that she
is doing SO well-well for her, that is.
1t wouldn't be a brilliant match for
some of the other girls in society
better-lo looking girls, you know"
ooh, yes, dearie, we quite under
stand that you are referring to your
self, though they did say at one time
that you were in love with him your
self"
''I in love with Bob? Of all
the absurdities If had been in
love with him, perhaps, this might
have been my wedding tonight, in
stead of Nancy's.
81 declare, am as much excited
as if this were my own marriage.
You see, I have been rehearsing them
all day, and 1 feel quite bridal and
all that"
cpd give a dollar to know where
he gets the money, wouldn't you, old
chap? They say he gave her tiara
for wedding present, and his tailor
is my tailor, and Blinks told me only
the other day-he said"
"Why did they have such ugly
ushers when there were good-looking
fellows in town to be had for the ask
ing? 1 think that man Brown is one
of the awkwardest creatures I ever
saw"
"Hus-s-h here she comes. Oh
the organist is playing the wedding
march much too fast. Hail to the
bride The ushers are almost rum
ming. She's pale. No, she doesn't
look her best; brides never do. Isn't
her gown superb? They say it was
made in New York by second-rate
dressmaker, but it doesn't look it."
eff ever a man looked an ass, it is
when at his own wedding he is wait
a fool Of myself at Nancy wedding,
but if it hadn't been for the hardest
sort of luck I might have been stand
ing in that blamed FOOLS place to-
night. Why girl should throw her
self away on him I do not know"
"The Mendelssohn is starting. She
smiles. Her teeth are even. What
an idiot he looks with that adoring
grin on his face. wished the peo-
pie wouldn't stand up right in front
of one. No one has any manners at
a wedding. Get down in front ! "
"Her mother looks weepy, doesn't
she? But that's only what mother
should look at the marriage of her
only daughter"

her having simply gained son.
Why, my daughter was married two
years ago, and I hate her husband
worse every moment. And to think
Mamie might have been My Lady
now if she had chosen"
"Going to the house ?"
eyes; I do hope they will have
something substantial to eat. 1 hur
ried away from the dinner table so
quickly that I am half starved now.
Seven O'Clock is too early for we'd
ding. When I'm married it is going
to be at g."
"I'll wager they don't have cham
pagne. !"
