Oh, tell her, brief is life, but love IS
 ~ long"
 To be a happy bride, to have a pretty. bountiful wedding, is the one wish of a girl among many; declar- ing it is the longing of her heart to which she looks forward. She en- closed a picture of the object of her affection, which certainly bore out tne that ''Barkis was Will1ng! She said she was going to try ever so hard. to make the wedding feast so enjoyable that the couples who were united would not forget the affair very soon. Would I favor her with a short reply, the bride-to-be,, added or what chance she had of getting up 8, novelty to adorn. the wedding cake, hours before it was tucked away un- der her bridesmaids pillows to dream over?
 s,\I agreed with my fair correspondent that fresh and lovely as the cherished wedding cake was usually, there must be something of a novelty about it, to cause smiles on faces as they viewed it. as well as f4Oh, how love1y!' from scores of feminine lips.
 Most brides-to-be know, as does my enthusiastic girl writer, that costly wedding cakes are not being bought, sive as they were formerly. Yet far more marriages are being celebrated at present, and will be this fall and coming winter. than in peace times
 Instead of Cupid, or an adornment of "a newIy-wed couple adorning the wedding cake, confectioners have put their thinking caps on to see what different sugared setting they can fa- svor the guests with. Medanions of sugar have been nodded into portraits of King George, General Joffre, Gen eral French, Admiral Jellicoe and oth- CT leaders, which have been exhibited. They are intended as ornaments which are novelties and are in much favor for simpler birthday cakes, christen7 ing cakes and will be admired On forthcoming Christmas and New Years cakes, undou bted1y. To the young women who have no preference for anything newer, their hearts may be filled, with expectancy, and, I dare say, bridegroom and guests will be happy participants of this delicate cake, not being the least disappointed in the toothsome making.
 It may be but once in a lifetime that each will be fortunate enough to view his or her own wedding cake. Let it be significant Of some person, scene, or event, nodded not only on the con- fectionery part, but a reminder con cerning what had taken place, never to be forgotten. Beauty, previously, of bridal face and figure and the we'd ding veil used to be charmingly adt mired. but it takes great deal more now to impress the hearts of newly weds, to crown the possessors of the adornments, with the much-hoped-for laurel of original novelty.
