broad hospitality. 1t was more than
enough to revel in an Italian sun,

What do you think about this action

Is it possible, with all your experi

II not. you should give your views a;

are really beginning TO think that you
are afraid to tackle it.
Judge Overs said to the unfortunate
whom he banished: .

Is this not exactly the same sent
msnt that prompted the deportation
of Cripple Creek?

The Olive.

The olive has been applied for Va
rious medicinal purposes since old
Rameses |. held sway over hts dark
skinned subjects in northern Africa.
In the days of ancient Rome the
leaves and bark of the tree were used
by the remarkable medical experts Of
that time to allay and cure violent
attacks of intermittent fever, while
the resinous gum which exuded from
the tree in the hot season was used
for many Of the ills to which flesh is
heir. The oil of the olive itself later
was used by the Roman athletes to
soothe their heated bodies after in
dulging in heroic attempts to break
the early records for 100 yard dashes
and putting the discus or shot. Then
the oil of the wild olive was employed
as an extraordinary panacea, guaran-
teed to stop the ravages of all all
ments. Last of all, in more modern
times the women of our own day use
the olive oil in the form of soap to
beautify the complexion by softening
the pores and nourishing the skin

WEDDING PRACTICAL.
Details Are Very Important if One
Wishes to be Married in Peace.

Details Are very Important II OHS
Wishes to be Married in Peace.
Many a wedding day is spoiled for
the two persons most deeply concern
ed by small plumbers and omissions
which could easily have been prevent
ed by very simple means. There
could be no better plan for her to
whom the wedding arrangements fall
than to make an exhaustive list OF
the various details which must be at
tended to in their proper order.
The sexton of the church where
the ceremony it to be performed is
a very important factor in the sue
cess of smart wedding. He sees to
all the details Of awning and carpet,
aisle ribbons, doorkeepers, etc. It is
also a part of his work to give any
necessary assistance to the florists
in decorating the church.
Then there is the organist and his
important part of the programme.
The wedding music is chosen in con-
sultation with him, as rehearsals VIII
probably be needed. The organift
should be apprised of it, and hiS
services engaged for them. The price
of this detail is always a matter Of
special arrangement. The reputation
of the organist regulates his fee.
The charge for wedding carriages
is usually quoted at prices current
for other less momentous occasions.
Experience is, however, very much to
the contrary, and 1t will be found bet
ter to agree beforehand upon a GER
tain sum for the entire service.
Carriages are needed to carry the
bride, bridesmaids, and the brides
family to- the church. and afterward
to the house for the reception or
breakfast.
One carriage can be provided for
two bridesmaids. 1t should be sent
to their houses, then brought to the
home of the bride, to follow her car
riage to and from the church.
1t is the duty of the groom to pro-
vide any other carriages that may be
required for his own use and that
of the best man. A carriage is al
ways placed at the disposal of the
clergyman who officiates.
When the ceremony takes place in
country place, carriages are always
sent to meet guests coming from
town. These take the visitors first
to the church, then to the house Of
entertainment, and afterNard to the
starting point.
While people Of wealth sometimes
engage special trains for the wedding
guests, such cases are exceptional.
Those accepting an invitation to a
wedding in the country usually pay
train expenses.
Whatever the style Of the entertain
ment decided upon-whether break
fast, luncheon, or simple buffet
every requisite for it can be obtained
from a competent caterer.
The question of decoration is en-
tirely a matter of taste.
