the daughters of family marries. a
piece of her bridal cake must be left
in the house, else. it is said, none OF
the other girls will marry.
A wedding ring, a thimble. a coin
and a button are sometimes baked in
a wedding cake. The understanding
is that the person who gets a piece
containing the ring will be the first
to marry. The one who gets the thin

one who finds the coin may expect
wealth while the one to whom the
button falls will be a bachelor.

WEDDING supERsTITroNs

Marriage being an ancient institu-
tion which vitality affects lives Of
men and women. IL IL not surprising
that practically everything connect
ed Herewith has some superstitious
belief or other associated with IT,
The majority Of people believe that
particular Incidents. colors, days
flowers etc determine absolutely the
veal or woe of the parties to mar
rlage. They avoid supposedly I'M
lucky days for their weddings. They
take pains to arrange everything so
as to assure conjugal happiness and
they worry themselves nearly to
death il anything in connection with
the ceremony takes an unpropitious
turn.
II bride marks her linen with the
initials of her betrothed il is COM
monty believed that she will never
have occasion to use II as his wife.
1t is rgsrded as very unlucky IL her
fiance sees her wearing any part
of her trousseau before the day, or
even the hour, set for the wedding
ceremony. Only bad luck can be ex-
pected, many believe, If the bride
makes her own wedding dress or If
the making of the dress is begun be-
for the day is named for the wedding
Superstitious brides usually avoid
velvet as a material for their wedding
dresses. believing that 1t would be
certain to bring them bad luck. Satin
is favored because it is believed to
assure good fortune. If one holds
wedding dress in the hands for five
minutes and makes a wish the wish
will come true" many believe.
Brides are happy il the first flow
err they behold on their wedding day
is white and unhappy if it is red; the
happiness and the red unhappiness
and care during the married life. If
flowers are worn in the brides hair,
uncovered by "a veil. she will be sor-
ry she married. To leave her bOquet
in the church and then turn back for
it is considered equally portentous.
The girl who finds or snatches
flower from brides boquet may ex-
pect an early marriage, while the one
who dons a bridal veil or wreath in
spirit of fun will be an old maid,
according to a popular belief. II the
bridegroom appears with his tie awry
it is a sign" that he loves another
girl and if a raveling is found on his
clothes the superstition is that an
other woman lows him.
Many are convinced that the bride
should not bake the wedding cake
herself if she desires to avoid bad
luck. She can be sure of good luck,
they say, if she cuts the first slice of
the cake. Any accident to the cake
gives warning that the bride will ex-
perience sorrow in her early married
life. If an unmarried girl carries a
piece of wedding cake in her pocket
