APRIL IS NONE TOO EARLY TO
THINK OF THE TROUSSEAU
FOR JUNE.

J T has been observed that all brides
are beautiful That is partly because
everybody loves a wedding, which
is the most sacred and picturesque Of
human ceremonies. But it is chiefly
because the bride devotes SO much time
and thought to planning for the event
that she is transh8ured by the rare
beauty of her 1aiment, however lovely
her natural endowments.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-04-20

We we'll know, Of course, that June
is the marriage month, but April is
none too early to think about it.
When Whistler could not be prompt
at the wedding Of one Of his friends,
he wired him: Fear I may not be able
TO reach you in time for ceremony.
