 sNOw-wHITE WEDDING
 ACCESSORIES White is for the brice who steps from girlhood into matronhood. She, and she only. may wear if. The widow | cannot be married second time In white. Her choice may lie between
 pale gray, rose pink. blue or any other | colors. but white she must leave to the girl to whom this symbolic garb | belongs by divine right.
 So much sentiment and sacredness are attached to the white wedding | robes which may be worn but once that 1t seems strange that any girl will forego this privilege and De married In l travelling costume or even a colOred frock of any sort. Of course, the white
 wedding garb. if properly supplied. | costs a deal of money. but the girl of ] sentiment will sacrifice all along the
 line In her rousseau in order to have | this one supreme occasion d.gniffed by 1 a traditional wedding gown and veil. Given the white satin wedding gown. there Is no reason why the rest of the 1 white belongings should make de- | vastating hole in the trousseau exchec- | auer If there Is not a lace heirloom veil, kept sacred to weddings in the
 family, there Is usually some happy | little matron friend who is only too | anxious to lend her wedding veil and
 "the luck 1t brought" to the bride-to- | be- A wedding veil or white tulle costs from s10 to s15--depending on the brides height: for the veil must | fall quite to the end of the long train After the lengths of tulle have been l draped on the head and spread out over | the skirt. the lower edge is shaped by | clipping it away with paIr of scissors | so that 1t falls gracefully, just cover | ing the train. White earl-headed | pins should be used for fastening the veil to the brides hair. The veil fall- | ing over the face Is easier to arrange
 for 1t has only to be thrown over the head, a coronet of orange buds holding | 1t in place on top.
 I From veil to slippers seems a sudden jump. but the brides footwear repre-
 sents very important feature of her
 cost ume If the wedding is to be In Q
 chancei, the slippers will be in evidence l as the bride comes down the steps in
 view of a thousand eyes. Every girls | heart has throbbed with sympathy for 1 the poor little bride who, it is related | wore her mothers red worsted bed | room slippers to the church to keep l her pretty white footwear from being 1 soiled by the carriage rugs-aud then ! forgot to remove the red worsted af- 1 fairs before she went up the aisle. The | wedding slippers may, if one chooses. | cost a mint of money, or they may be
 purchased for a few dollars. If satin l slippers are chosen they should be sui
 fciently large. for these slippers are | often affairs of torture, ana though the | tourney up the church aisle is short. | the hours during which the bride
 stands up at the reception are long.
 Of course no stockings except those
 of finest silk. should bear the little
 bride to happiness. Better an absolute 1 ly plain pair of silk hose than the
 most elaborate garnished cotton ones silk stockings are an item of extrav- | agance dear to the heart of woman. | and no silk stockings can De too dainty
 for bride. Ravishiug pairs. embroid- | cred aEo inset with zeal lace. come as
 high as $25. but the average bride | will be satisfied with pretty pair at | $5 or under.
 Gloves are not as much of a consid-
 eratlon as they were. for the sleeves of wedding gowns are now made long | and short gloves are ali that Is re- | qulred. The shop keeper will obliging- ly rip open the third finger of the left | glove. to accommodate the wedding | ring, which Is placed on the hand du- | ring the ceremony, afterWard stitching | up the glove so that it may be worn
 with the frock. With summer wedding
 dresses of lingerie and net fabrics the ! long white embroidered silk gloves are | very dainty. hut for the autumn we'd ding in the conventional satin wedding | gown white kid gloves are in better | taste.
 The Bride wears no iewelrv except i the traditional gift of the groom "
 
 this being usually pearl or diamond
 brooch or pendant or a string of pearls
 Her orange blossoms and her crown of
 lovely girlhood are the only ornaments
 the little bride needs. and If she Is a
 properly joyous bride all the diamonds
 she might wear would be outdone by | the light of happiness in her eyes.
 A prayer-book Is sometimes carried
 with the wedding gown instead of the
 conventional bouquet. and there Is a
 demure dignity about the bride carry 1 ing a prayer-book which she with the
 mammoth bunch of posIes never quite
 achieves. pretty notion Is illustrat- | ed, the white vellum prayer book be-
 ing decorated with exaggerated book i marks made of white ribbons to which
 are tied sprays of lilies-0f- thu valley. There Is one item of the brides at
 tire which Is never white-and every
 girl knows what that Is: the "somethinH
 blue" which tradition has come to
 mean the brides garter. This blue gar | ter will. of course. be eStravagantly
 gay with shirred ribbons and a chou
