CUTS SMALL FIGURE
eR'DEeRooMs AMOUNTS TO BUT
LITTLE AT THE WEDDING.
He Must Assume. Neutral oemeanor
and Dress for Ceremony, and
7hen 10 Made to Feel Like
4 6riQand.

To realize the small figure cut by
bridegroom at his own wedding, one
need only peruse the pages of book
OF etiquette having to do with the
marriage ceremony. There are reams
OF instructions for the bride, from
how to carry her veil to how she
shall greet the business acquaint'
ances Of her father. But how about
the poor, neglected bridegroom
There are no pages written, for his
enlightenment. He does we'll to get
= paragraph or so tucked down near
the end of the story. No one tells
him how to carry his hat or cares
whether he has a hat at ALL He is
supposed to efface himself-to en-
ter into the scheme Of things only
when the ceremony cannot go along
without him.
There is only one occasion upon
which the bridegroom is absolutely
necessary, and that is when the min
lister must have someone to pro-
nounce the husband of the fair bride
Even then the poor harassed man
has a propensity for slipping the ring
Into the wrong pocket, SO that be is
compelled to tumble for it. In the
end he drops it, whereupon it prompt
~ rolls out Of sight. and is rescued
only after much confusion and con.
siderable embarrassment. Men with.
cut number have been known to for:
get the golden circ]et OF sweet bond
age altogether.
Not only must the man in the case
assume neutral demeanor during
the festivities, but he must dress the
part. His clothes are black and SOL
emn to behold; he is allowed to dis
play absolutely no partially in the
choosing OF his wedding garments
He looks very much the same as he
has dozens of times when attending
formal affairs. The bride may be a
veritable Flora, wreathed with gar.
ments. yelled in mist of tulle and
f1lmy lace. The only festal note al.
lowed the bridegroom is single
blossom or boutonniere of white
against the sombe1 blackness or his
coat.
Another thing-he has always been
led to believe the woman of his choice
loved him devOtedly. that her parents
approved Of him as a son and that he
was generally persona grata Yet
when the day OF happy contamination
arrives every one weeps over the
bride, who thereby endangers her
own loveliness By wiping the tear.
drops from her shining eyes with a
wfsp OF lace masquerading as hand.
kerchief. Every tear is like stab
to the man standing by wondering
what 1t Is all about and feeling very
much like brigand caught in the act
Of stealing away beautiful young
maiden.
All this sentimentalism and panoply
OF love is very dear to the heart Of a
girl, dreaming. as she has, oversthe
most wonderful, the most eventful
day OF her life. Yet when the lonei.
ness OF the bridegroom, despite the
fact that this is his wedding day and
one qNite as momentous to him as to
the bride, Is taken INTO considera-
ton. small wonder then that so many
pairs of lovers wing their way Sc
cretlv to some quiet nook and take
the vow Of eternal constancy away
from the sight and sound OF cere.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

An advance of a point and q half on
the common stock Of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company was the
feature of today's trading at the meeting
of the stock exchange. An indication of
the movement that has been in progress
in this security for some days was given
during the call, when a couple Of brokers
filled two orders for fifty shares each at
A. half a point better than the last best
selling price. The bid continued at that
level with the asking price quarter of a
point in advance.
After call, however, nearly two hundred
shares were traded in and the figures
jumped to 45, the last sale of a quotation
lot going at that level.
somewhat similar movement has
been going on in the case Of Capital
Traction stock, with the exception
that the tendency has been downward.
Today odd lots of the stock were Of
fered at 1875. and one sale Of that kind
was made at 1851. No change was
made in the quotations.. which re-
NAMED 1913 bid and 1877 asked.
The two movements have resulted
in bringing the street railway stocks
nearer to a parity from the dividend
as Capital Traction yields per cent
at 12O and Washington Railway COM
mon does the same at 40.
There was nothing done in the
Washington Railway preferred stock.
A slight advance was made in the
bid, which was 86H, while the asking
price remained at SO. At this latter
level the stock pays in dividend re-
turns 5.6S per cent.

Money Made in Farming.
From the New York World,

From the New YORK WOrl0.
The Prosperity of the farmers in New
York state Is beyond dispute There IL
more money in the business and fewer
people to divide it than ten years ago.
Fifteen rural counties Of New York. al
appears by a census bulletin just issued.
had fewer residents in 1910 than in 1900
But outside of villages and towns the
actual rural population decreased an
forty-two of the sixty-one counties Of the
state. To some extent this means a de-
cline of the numbering industry. but
smaller families and more labor-saving
machinery have something to do with 1t.
More careful farming would quickly put
people back on the land.
In New York, as elsewhere In the coun-
try the farmer Is financially taking good
care of himself. In the whole country
the value in 1910 Of the land, buildings,
implements and farming machinery was
about $35 ,O0O. Co., 600, an increase OF
$50. 600, GOO 600 over that Of 1900, los per
cent greater for the land and buildings
and 68 per cent for machinery and I'M
plements. In the number Of farms the
Increase is less striking, only los per
cent. The acreage Of improved land In
creased only from 414.O00.00O acres to
All. 100000.
As the population increased u per cent
Il - easy 70 see why farm lands grew
in value.
