FAN Bridal Bouquets.

Bridal bouquets with purple flowers are
now considered correct.
That is. correct for widows, for the old
tradition of brides carrying nothing but
white still holds. and probably viii for all
time.
Custom has, however. within the last
few months made this color exception in
favor of widows who are again to wed. and
purple or heliotrope orchids amid bunch
of white roses or white orchids have been
used with telling effect at several quiet
summer weddings.
That the fashion Is a welcome one is
demonstrated by the orders for violets and
orchids or purple orchids with white flow
ers that many Of the florists have received
for fall marriages where the services are to
be held either in a church or quietly at
home.

the difficulties of light. space and inhexi-

HARRY FISCHER'S NEW ROLE
Attorney Has an Experience of Mis-
taken Identity which He
VIII Not Forget.

Harry Fischer is a versatile man, but
only once has he ever played the role
Of a burglar, and that wasn't on the stage,
either II happened last week. when. Mr.
Fischer went to draw up a will for a
woman on Burdette street. He was given
the number Sl15 but found no one at home
there, and in his wanderings arrived on
the porch of 3o13. Mr.. Fischer is not very
large and he was considerably dismayed
when 1eO-pound woman, looking to him
like seven feet tall. rushed out of a gro
Gerry store near by and demanded to know
what he was doing on the porch. She
said her house had been robbed less than
fifteen minutes before. and she suspected
him OF being the culprit. She didn't in
tend to send for the police, but IL she
could get her hands on the burglar she
would push his face into the back Of his
neck forthwith.
The attorney protested he didn't know
a Jimmy from crowbar, but the Amazon
decided not to take his word for his inno-
cence. She talked with all the neighbors
in search Of Matchmaking evidence,
though she secured none. Then she
begged the gentleman's pardon for hav-
ing suspected him. but really the house
had been turned upside down, and II she
hadn't had her money in her stocking
the burglars would have stolen it," Mr..
Fischer was glad she had the money in
her stocking otherwise she might have
been more pugnacious, and a man can't
strike a woman even IL she is as big as a
house,
