RUSSIAN WEDDINGS.
The Part the Brides Brother Plays
In the Ceremony.

The Part the Brides Brother Plays
In the Ceremony.
In no country In the world, says the
author Of "Wooings and Weddings In
Many Chimes" is the tie between broth
err and sister closer than 1t is In Rus
sia. The brother is regarded as her
guardian equally with the father and
as her protector even more.
In many districts when the groom
comes to claim his bride her brother
places himself beside her and with a
stout stave or a drawn sword prevents
the groom's approach. The twain or
ten engage in much poetical bartnr, in
which the bride incites her brother to
extort C goodly price for herself, her
veil and her beauty.
Upon the wedding day the groom
comes to her parents house and claims
his bride. Then there Is a touching lit
tie bit Of ceremony. n Of those pretty
human comedies which are called emp
ty shows and FORMS" but are written
In warm. tender emotions.
The maiden kncels before her parents
and asks them to pardon her for any
and every offense toward them OF
which she may ever have been guilty.
They lift her up and kiss her: then they
together offer her bread and salt. which
signifies that while they live they will
not see her lack the necessaries of life.
When she leaves the house its door
Is left open to signify that she may rc-
turn when she will: that her girlhood's
home Is still hers.
