wedding superstitions, and win The
thanks of ANXIOUS.
4 bride who finds a spider on her
Wedding dress may consider her
self blessed.
The bride who dreams of fairies
the night before her marriage viii
be thrice blessed
II the wedding ring is dropped
during the ceremony. the bride may
as well wish herself unborn. FOR
she will always have ill-luck.
Marry when the year is new
Always loving. kind and true
When February birds do mate,
You may wed, nor dread your
fate.
If YOU marry when March winds
Joy and sorrow both you'll know.
Marry in April when you can.
Joy for maiden and for man.
Marry in the month of May.
You will surely rue the day
Marry when June roses blow,
over land and sea you'll go.
They who in July do wed,
Must labor always for their bread.
All who wed i'm August be.
Many a change are sure 10 see.
Marry in September shine,
Your living will be rich and fine.
II in October you do marry,
Love will come, but riches tarry.
If you wed in bleak November,
Only joy viii come, remember.
When December SHOWS fall fast.
If you marry love will last.
If the groom carries a miniature
horseshoe in his pocket he will al
ways have good luck.
No bride or groom should be
given telegram on the way to
church. It is positively sign of
evil
Kiss the bride just after the cere-
mony, and before the newly made
husband has chance to do so. and
yon will have excellent luck
throughout the year.
Should a bride perchance see a.
coffin while being driven to the
railway station prior to departing
upon her wedding tour. she should
order the driver to turn back and
start over again, or else she will
surely meet with bad luck.

way of continuing to use linseed
oil. Thanking you in advance.
remain, FRANCES l.. W.
One of the readers told me Of the
iinseed oil method of keeping

mer. Perhaps she will write again
and tell us whether using it will
make the stove continue to smoke.

Transfer Ink

For transferring designs on velvet,
etc, the best plan is to pick the pat
tern all around very carefully, and
rub the holes with fine French chalk
This will leave the design on the ma
terial 1t must, of course, be run
round with cotton in order to pre-

About Ink

Very often ink get stringy or oily.
This is caused by the action of the
air A few drops of vinegar put into
the ink will make it disable again, but
the better plan is to keep the ink bot
tie covered. The ink will surely thick
en- otherwise. When ink becomes
thick dilute with very little strong
coffee.
To prevent ink from molding drop
into it half teaspoonful of alcohol.
