After the
 Wedding


 hat young person.
 Miss Larson opened one sleepy eye Oh. did you step on me?" she droned yawring widely and undisguisedly. q didn't know it
 Sure l did" responded Miss Con nelly. "I thought I'd better wake you up and tell you about 1t. You can go to sleep again now"
 Miss Larson opened the other eye 'I wasn't asleep. Nell Connolly" she said indignantly. "I guess a person g got right to shut their eyes if they want to- My eyes ain't very strong and the light hurts 'em"
 Don't lets waste our perfectly good time fghtin' with each other this morning. said Miss Connolly. If We do We won't have time to knock the weddin"
 Say" began Miss F'rizkie eagerly, didn't you pretty near die over the way Names hair was fxed7 Honest to goodness, when l get married I'll have a hair dresser fix my hair up swell if l don't have so much as a pork chop 10 eat for a year"
 T thought her hair looked pretty good for Name said Miss Larson. sleepily Tt always looks like shed slept in it."
 Her dress was a peach. though wasn't it?' said Miss Frizkie At least it would have been if it had had any fit to it. All that hand em- broidery and that bead trimming must have cost a pile" ~ Hand embroidery," calculated Miss Connolly. That's all you know about it len. was over to look at Names clothes Tuesday evening and ] felt Of il good. and it wasn't no more hand embroidery than nothing.
 Well. she must 'a' got a corner on this years crop Of beads" said Miss Frizkie. What do you think l said Go the lady that was standin' next to me when Name came into the parlor2 ] give her dig with my elbow and 1 <says, Say I says, Name must have got mixed in her dates and thought she was a Christmas tree.
 My, The lady got as red as any thing. q designed that gown she says snilHng up her nose at me, mad pas she could be.
 . Land. ! just faded away like I'd -been blown off the landscape"
 Its a pity you couldn't learn rot 60 have such rude manners. Jen, said Miss Comedy.
 "I guess if ] could just learn to shut up and keep shut up it would help some agreed Miss Frizkie, good naturedly
 Name didn't have such an awful lot Of presents as l thought she would Miss Larson opened her eyes long enough to remark. T kind of thought she'd have lot more'n what she did
 Some Of 'em was expensive. though. I guess" said Miss Frizkie Now. I bet that cut glass pitcher and them glasses cost S2o.'
 Nix on that said Miss Connolly. decidedly. "I picked up every one Of lem and run my finger over 'em and they wasn't sharp like cut glass ought Co be They was real smooth"
 Well, that shows how you can fool me-" Miss Frzaie admitted. But then I'd a whole lot rather have a showy set like that than some little Ginky piece that wouldn't make no show at all"
 Same here said Miss Larson. Anybody would. of course. ! guess Names mas folks are pretty well fixed anyway Her mas brother gave her that dandy set of knives and forks that was layin' upon the dress e. with the plates with the hand painted fruit design up 'em.7
 "Nothin' much 10 them" said Miss more-n about $J. They was plated and it wasn't a hrst-class plate, either"
 "Plated?' cried Frizkie How do you know they were plated?"
 Why. ] took 'em out and looked at them replied Miss Connolly, placid ly. You can't fool me All the siI- yer things there was plated except that little pickle fork that the two Ryan girls give her. and I seen them on sale last week over to Green burg's for one and a quarter"
 "M9l I'd hate to give such an aw- ful little thing anyway" murmured Miss Larson. q think it was a lot better to club together like us girls did and give her something big. Our silver tray looked like it could have bought up everything else she had
 "includin' the feller she married" said Miss Connolly. Say, wasn't he the farmer, though? I bet he rented them clothes. He was afraid to sit down in 'em, and the way they rt was a fright Did you pipe how he kep' hitchin' one shoulder all the timelthe preacher was taIkin'?"
 No" said Miss Frizkie, 'I didn't I wis too busy tryin' to count the beads of Names dress"
 Miss Larson stuck her hands deep into her mnm and ysWasd once moTe, "vesh 8'as glad Event sue said.f'e1t dois't kndW,as it was worth tho' money wS put into that tray. even if it did look 60 grand The ice cream. | got wasn't no bigeern a silver dollar and I didn't get but two snlscaroons and
