MODERN WEDDING IN JAPAN
Seldom Nowadays That Bride and
Groom From Best Families Are
Married In Old Way.

Near Hibiya Park, Tokyo, Japan, is
the Hibiya Diajinga, or the great god
shrine, the most famous place in the
empire for the celebration of mar
riages. Twelve years ago such
custom, that Of performing wedding
services at shrines, was unheard of,
and it was DR.. Baron Takagi who es-
tablished the practice, following that
of the western marriage rites in most
respects. Since this innovation the
Daijingu wedding has become most
popular, and 1t is seldom nowadays
that any bride or groom from a family
of good standing is married in the old
fashioned manner with the ceremony
of three times three cups of sake.
When the bride and groom and the
relatives have assembled at the shrine
the head priest advances to the altar
Of the gods and says a prayer to the
ancestors of the country and then
makes the couple promise that they
will never separate. The priest then
serves the gods with sake, after which
it is given to the bride and groom,
who make VOW before the gods that
they will be constant to each other,
and such a promise given before the
gods is one that does not admit of any
lapse on the part of either party con-
cerned.
Then the sake is given to the rela-
tives, and the signal is made to repair
to a western hotel for a foreign ban
quet or perhaps to a native restau-
rant where a purely Japanese menu
will be served.

two years his junior. The mother, a
widow, Is wage Garner and spends
four hours every day away from her

boy told her that he and his sister did
not like Louise" and would not eat,
mo, never, till mother came home"
Thinking that this was only a passing
whim, the woman went to her work
the next day, admonishing the chill
dren to be real good" On her return
she found the children hungry with
the prepared meal untasted. Fearful
Of evil consequences, the woman sur
rendered. Louise was sent to her
home and the children have been real
good" ever since Thinking of what
the next demand may be, the mother
wonders if she did right.
