The average Grand Forks young
man and woman does not need to be
told that June is the month of mar
riages. Although the period is scarce
entered upon, there have been fully
a dozen nuptial ceremonies performed
in this city during the past week. In
the last three weeks, Judge l.. X.
Hassel. of the probate court, has is
sued score of marriage permits
Indications are that new record of
marriages, as to number, will be made
during the month.

& Evening Times, June L: May was
most unusual month with more rainy
days than in any May since 1877.

Herald, June 8: The monthly he
neurological summary issued by the
U. 8. weather bureau discloses the
fact that North Dakota's May rainfall
was greater than OF any other month
of May since 1876, this years precipi-
tation amounting to 5.37 inches as
compared with 1877 for last year.
The Herald, after a nine-days' wait
at length endorses the report of the
Evening Times. AS matter Of fact
in the thirty-one days which the call
endar assigns to May there were a;
total Of but six clear days. Rain fell
on sixteen days and on two other
days there were traces of snow. The

on the principle of the monograph

convenient for memorizing:
Mary Monday for wealth,
Marry Tuesday for health,
Marry Wednesday the best day OF
Marry A Thursday for crosses.
Marry Friday for losses.

The color of the wedding gown
seems to have had much significance
for many centuries. So runs the
verse:
Marry in white,
You have chosen all right.
Marry in gray
You will go far away.
Marry in black
You will wish yourself back :

for that same reason the rose still
remains the emblem of the bride, her
thorns of reserve and dignity making
her all the more desirable. all the
more beautiful.
Because, then, of love, of roses, June
is the favored month of weddings.
The English have some quaint super
stitions regarding the choice of the
month. They run this way:
Marry when the year ls new.
Always loving, kind and true.
If you marry when March winds blow,
Joy and sorrow both you'll know
Marry in April when you can,
Marry in the month Of May
You will surely rule the day.
Marry When June roses blow,
Ger the land and sea you'll go.
They who in July wed
Must labor always for their daily bread.

Your living will be rich and fine.
II in October you do marry,
Love will come but riches tarry.
II you wed In black November,
Only Joy will come. remember.
When DEFENDERS snow falls fast,
If you marry, love will last
There are dozens Of other super
stitions regarding the wedding day,
that are intensely interesting. Wooden,
