The Poor Bridegroom.

Even the English language empha-
sizes the insignificance OF man at his
own wedding" said the prospective
bridegroom disconsolately. There isn't
an independent word to designate him.
He is merely called the groom OF the
bride. as If he were just about on a
level with the bridesmaids and a lit
tie below the maid OF honor Best
man. Of course, means the bridegroom's
best man. but the phrase itself tends to
exalt this Individual at the expense of
bis superior.
''Then there's no adjective to de-
scribe what pertains to the male half
Of the affair. You can't speak of the
Underground trousers or necktie. On
the other hand, bridal applies not only
to the possessions of the girl. but to
what relates to both of them. equally,
like the trip and the bridal chamber.
The very words 'matrimony' and mat
rimonial are from the feminine side
only. 'Patrimony' has nothing to do
with the nuptials. 1t applies only to
wealth and signifies that a mans part
in the affair Is to get out and hustle
for the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Ledger.
