From time immemoral June mas been
the faVorte month for weddings, for the
setting up Of new roof trees and the
lighting of the first fire on the hearth of

some wedding whether it be the modest
family affair, in a small apartment or
tiny village home, tn. spacious farm

neighbors, or more elegant function at

are usually set for o'clock in the even

ample time for the reception before the

their retreat. A prcttier custom is the

satin slippers that come filled with sill

Much confusion exists regarding the
origin of the word "tectotal." Not
many ahstainers probably know the
real story or recognize the fact that
the Introduction of the word marks an
epoch in the annals of temperance.
There are two traditions current rs to
the making of the word which are not
founded Oh fact II IS said that Rich
ard Turner. the APOSTLE Of temperance,
when delivering IN address said: I'VE
not only want total abstinence; we
want more we Want t-total absti-

Swindlehurst of Preston. who had an
impeachment in his speech, pronounced
the word 't-t-total" which was adopt
ed as n shibholeth The true origin
was explained lay the late DR. Brewer.
Previous TO 1893 the temperance pledge
did not absolutely forbid the use of
stimulants, but at that time the Total

To Make Your Hair Curl.

A curious recipe for making the halr
curl naturally" is given In an ancient
household notebook and is as follows
I'm the early spring when the sap OF
the wild grapevine begins to flow, take
bottle to the woods and tie II under
an incision made in the vine, through
which the sap may drip, and leave 1t
there till II Is filled. The same subtle
chemistry which curls the tendrlls of
the vine will act upon the hair and
twist II into softer rings than the ubiq-
ultous hot iron or any of the patent
curriers' of the day The sap should be
allowed to ferment all II Will before il
is corlled. When ready for use II SHOULD
be rubbed into the hair with n So
sponge"
