mento OF the Rev. Theodore Meyer,
New York clergyman, while those
who have already assumed the matri-
monial yoke will regret that he did
not flourish and give forth words OF
wisdom several years ago
For Father Meyer has issued Il
stern uka5e to his parishioner5 prohib-
iting the throwing Of rice at blush.
ing brides aud excited bridcgrooms.
The custom is relic OF barbarism,
says Father Meyer, and has 10 place
in a civilized wedding ceremony. lie
also points out the obvious ilct that it
is dangerous and the cause Of much
physical discomfort as well Us mental
pertur baton.
II the clergy Of the country would
follow Father Meyers example, and il
their efforts would bo backed up by
the police, it would be an admirable
thing. What benedict in the country,
unless he and his wife sensibly sneaked
away and got married when no one
was looking, but has lively recollec-
tion OF the sensation produced by the
idiot who hurled half a pound of rice
at short range and struck him fairly
in the ear: What woman did not
spend an hour or so after her wedding
in trying to comb rice out OF her hair
and shake it out OF her clothing? And
the amount of masculine profanity and
feminine annoyance that has resulted
from this silly custom is incalculable.
