Marriage ceremonies in India are
full of pretty incidents. The chief
incident of the better class Hindoo

with the end of his coat tied to the
end of the cloth which his girl-wife
wears on her head. symbolical of
their union. All the time they do
his they must not look at each other,

Weddinu Customs,

The custom of throwing shower Of
rice over newly welded couples comes
to us from India. and originated In
the idea that rice was an emblem of
fecundity. The Hindu bridegroom. at
throws three handfuls of rice over
the bride, and she replies by throwing
the same owe: him. With us the rice
is thrown by outsiders. The "old
shoe" custom is generally supposed to
come from the Hebrews, and is sup.
posed to have originally implied that
the parents of the bride gave up all
authority over her. The Germans had
long custom, which perhaps they
have not wholly given up even now.
of putting the groom's shoe on the
pillow of the bridal bed, and in Anglo
Saxon marriages the father gave a
shoe of the bride to the bridegroom,
who touched her on the head with 1t
to remind her who was now master
The wedding ring was used among
the ancient Hebrews primarily with
the idea that the delivery of a ring
conferred power on the recipient, and
thus the wife, wearing her husbands
ring, shared his authority. The ring
i'll the Roman espousals was pledge
of loyalty, and the idea that it should
be worn on the third finger OF the
left hand because "a nerve connects
this finger with the heart" originated
with the Romans. Orange blossoms
were worn by brides among the Sara
Gems because they were held to SYM
bolize fruitfulness: the very general
use of these flowers in Europe and
America for bridal adornment is com
paratively a modern custom. The use
of bridal veil is relic OF the far
off time when the husband was not
allowed to see his brides face till
after marriage.
1t is said to be a curious fact that
the wedding cake, that elaborate, in
dispensabe at the modern marriage
ceremony, is the direct descendant of
a cake made of water, -four and salt.

weddings, the married couple and the
witnesses partook at the time of the

Louisville Ky, Nov. 16--In an at
sence of more than three months, dur
ing which he has made a trip of 13 900
miles through the West and South,
President Taft is again in the White
House. He left the capital on August
last, with the cheers OF the crowds
ringing in his ears.
The whole Cabinet met the Presi-
dent at Union Station. All wore tall
hats and frock coats. This is the first
time Cabinet ever met at a railroad
station to greet a President. A dele
cation of Washington citizens was also
present to welcome Mr. Taft. 1t was
headed by a committee from the
Washington Chamber of Commerce.
He returned to the tune of the same
cheers, but he tarried only moment
with the various welcoming parties
His objective point was the White
House and Mrs. Taft, and as quickly
as he could get away from the brief
speeches of welcome he climbed into
his big automobile. The chauffeur
broke all the speed records of the Dis.
tvict on the last leg Of the Presidents
recOrd-making journey.
President Taft told members of his
party that outside of an impatience
to be with Mrs Taft again he would
