discontinued operations or removed to

from head to foot, the white being
sometimes varied by cream-colored
silk, every garment being of spotless

lous manner all round his legs like
he starched frock of a little child. On
his head he wears a hat not unlike
that formerly worn by Welsh fisher
women, only the crown is not so high.
The hat is black and glossy, and a
close inspection Of that Of a vaughan
(aristocrat) showed that it was made
Of fine woven silk and bamboo In an
open mesh that resembled crinoline

Gated cone does not fit the head, but
perches jauntily on top Of 1t. At its
base is a round brim about four inches
wide; the whole is Kept in place by
a black cord or band tied under the
chin. The office of this peculiar ca
hillary attire is not acne to protect
the head from the weather, but to
form a receptacle for an equally Gu

For the bride vac lives in the
country nothing is prettier than q
clover wedding. If the ceremony be
performed in q great orchard, or in .

for decorations of palms and hot
house roses would be out Of taste
when all outof-doors is trying to
make the day glad and fragrant.
