saluted her, 'Squire,'
l expect that affair, if it really oc-
CURED, had something to do with
making the squires a little cautious
about taking the first kiss. At any
rate, the custom was abandoned, long
years ago.
In these latter years the preachers
do most of the marrying, and instead
of a kiss from the bride, they gener-
ally receive, or expect TO receive,
fee from the groom, which is more
satisfactory, every way. The kiss might
be more delicious, for the moment, to
the preacher whose calling will not
allow him to kiss other mems wives.
much less to indulge in promiscuous
kissing; nevertheless, the fee is prefer
able, even though it be a small one.
The kiss would soon melt into a mem
Dry; but the fee can be converted into
bread and meat to feed the preachers
family or into new gown or hat for
the preachers wife.
Some stingy fellows have 'squires to
marry them, nowadays. They may
be the fellows. we read about who
marry to get cooks and washerwomen;
and don't want to pay out anything
for them. If | were Il girl | wouldn't
have a fellow who was not willing to
pay preacher or magistrate for ty-
ing the matrimonial knot if he We're
able; and if he were not | wouldn't
marry him nohoW.
Preachers don't always receive fees.
If the fee is not enclosed with the Ii
cense, or handed to the preacher by
the party who brings il to him, the
preacher has reason to suspect that
the groom intends to dead-beat him;
and, it almost always SO turns out. In
case of that sort the groom is apt
to come to the preacher and ask. soon
after the ceremony is over: Mister,
what do you charger" The preacher
generally says: II make no charge but
take whatever is offered me- To
which the groom, in the most provok-
ing manner, responds: I'm certainly
obliged to you

In Some neighborhoods, when | was
a boy, the magistrates married most
of the people, and the only pay they
expected was kissing the bride. After
awhile, CT don't know just what
brought about the change). the mag
istrate, instead of taking the first kiss,
would, at the end of his short mar
riage ceremony. say TO the groom:
Salute the BRIDE whereupon the
man would catch his newly made wife
around the neck, pull her up 10 him
and give her a smack that was equal
to the popping of a fire-cracker. OF
course it produced a laugh, in which
all joined heartily, the girl blushed
and looked as If ashamed of the per-
Torrance. while the groom put on the
air of a hero.
Sometimes a bride, who was Il little
modest, would resist when the kissing
time came on. She'd turn her head
this way and that, and wriggle worse
than a child whose face was being
washed; all the while the bridegroom,
with mouth puckered for a kiss. would
be dipping his head In all directions
as If trying to catch the kiss on the
fly.

it seemed to me, was swapping at,

had to do when they got married, I'd

Salute your BRIDE the woman made
a start to run, but the groom caught
her. and such a tussle as they had was
enough to fill the by-standers with

back and give room for the perform
ance. The woman was as wiry as an
eel and as Spry as a cat, and as hard
to hold as if she had been creased;
the man was strong. resolute and de-
termined, and each of them, | iniagin-
ed. felt that a great deal more than
a kiss depended upon the result of that
scuffie. Around and around they
danced; the woman lodging and duck
ing her head. the man, with puckered
mouth, making dives, this way and
that. AT length he managed to touch
his lins TO her forehead and exploded
a kiss that sounded like a squedunk,
he saying as he let her loose, Il got
the kiss all the same" But your
lips haven't touched mine yet, I'll have
you to know" she replied.
Then all the friends extended their
congra tulations; and pretty soon the
bride and groom, looking at each 9TH
er as lovingly as if the kissing business
would run more smoothly little later
on, led the way to an old-fashioned
country wedding supper.
