Letter TO a Bride.

The following letter was written by
an old friend to young lady on the
eve Of her wedding day:
have sent you a few flowers to
adorn the dying moments of your sim
gle life. They are the gentlest types
Of delicate and durable friendship.
They spring up by our side when
others have deserted 1t; and they will
be found watching over our graves
when those who should cherish have
forgotten us. 1t seems that past, so
calm and pure as yours, should ex-
pire with kindred sweetness about It:
that flowers and music, kind friends
and earnest words, should consecrate
the hour when sentiment is passing
Into sacrament.
The three great stages Of our being
are the birth, the bridal and the bur-
iaL To the first we bring only weak
ness, for the last we have nothing but
dust! But here at the altar, where
life joins life, the pair come throbbing
up to the holy man, whispering the
deep promises that arms each Others
heart to help on in the life strueqla
OF care and duty. The beautiful will
be there, borrowing new beauties from
the scene. The gay and the frivolous
they and their fiounces will look
solemn for once. And youth will come
to gaze on all that its sacred thoughts
pant for; and age will totter nm n
hear the old words repeated. that IN
their own lives have given the charm
Some will weep over it as IL II were
a tomb, and some laugh over 1t as n
1t were a joke; but two must stand nv

lasting locking of their livesl

To Iron Linens,
As linens form a large percentage
Of summer dresses, it is advisable ~

beauty of this fabric. No linen sbonld
