Accompanied by his wife and
daughter, H.. c. Bellinger, an
Australian who has amassed a
tfortune in copper mining. went
ffeur years ago to Cobar, in Cen
trail New South Wales, to take
Eefarge of mine which his agents
had failed to turn into a financial
success.
Hunting possums, emus and
wallabies, riding, tramping and
camping, these two women hunted
up adventure of all sorts in the
"mallie scrub" of the wilderness.
Miss Bellinger because a crack

AT
MARRIAGE

Flowers of course, always
have been used at all festal oc-
casions, and so, consequently, at
the weddings of practically every
nation. They are the symbol of
gayety, and hence their profu-
sion at that most joyous of times
"a wedding.
But some of the flowers have
more than general significance.
For example, there was long a
custom for each guest to dip a
spring of rosemary into his cup
of wine before drinking the cou-
pies health.
The bride Gf she were not a
widow and the bridegroom once
adorned themselves with gar
lands of wheat. This was a SYM
Dol of plentifulness and increase
and at the present time the bridal
wreath Of orange blossoms pos
sesses the same meaning.
In rye olden times" there were
garlands everywhere at a wedding
ceremony. Even the rejected suit
or sometimes wore a garland of
gray willow.
Besides the flowers, both the
bride and bridegroom wore a true
love knot, an ornament intro
duced into England by the Danes
in the ninth century and called
the "trulofa," the troth.
The bride of that time was sup
posed always to wear three orna-
ments-a ring for a pledge, a
brooch for innocence, and a gar
dand as a crown of victory for
temptations resisted.

Dear Miss Grey: Will
you give me some of your
good advice that you so gen.

she is up and ready in a
jiffy. OF course, l always
go, but she looks so proud
to walk beside him that it
cuts me to the heart. 1
catch looks between them
that I don't like, and when
he is going to work they
both wave their hands at
each other, even the neigh
bOrs notice it.
Now, Miss Grey, don't
think 1 am a jeaI nus old
man because 1 am not, but
my heart aches so when 1
think it all over that / can't
do my work as il ought to be
done, and yet 1 am too proud
to say anything to either.
