Weddings
BY EMILY POST.
"DEAR MRS. POST: We are hav-

DEAR MRS. POST: We are hav-
- ing a small wedding at o'clock
in the evening, the last week in June
The ceremony will take place in a
simple country church, and the recep-
ton afterward in our very unpreten-
tious home. Most of cur relatives and
friends are country people, who will
not come in formal dress. Even SO
would like to wear white satin and
veil and my attendants will be dis
appointed If they can't dress in brides
maids clothes at least. Will such a
sharp division between guests and
wedding party be improper? The
bridegroom, best man, and the two
ushers all have dress suits, but I feel
certain they will be the only ones to
wear them"
Answer: 1t is proper that the BRIDE
groom and his attendants and, of
course, you and your bridesmaids wear
clothes suitable for the wedding party,
and that your neighbors wear what
they choose.
My Dear Mrs. Post: Must a we'd
ding invitation be sent to every one
in the wedding party. regardless of the
fact that they have not only been
asked to the wedding. but are even a
part Of it. My maid of honor said
she could hardly wait for her invita-
ton! But to me this seems such
foolish waste of expensive invitations. -
Answer: Invitations are always sent
to the immediate families and to the
members of the bridal party-and even
to the bridegroom, not because it is
necessary that they be formally
notified, but because (aS your maid of
honor indicateO they are more in
terested than most of the other guests
in every wedding detail. On the sub
Ject OF extravaganza, remember that
the cost Of engraving the plates is
precisely the same for a few invita-
tions or for many, and that a few
printings more or less make little
difference.
Dear Mrs. Post: I am wearing an
afternoon dress, hat, gloves and
pinned-on flowers at my wedding

about feet long. These bears are
found on Kodiak Island and are
classed under the name of Ursus mid
dendor1. They were named after DR..
Middendorff, who described them.
Father and mother Kodiak are
dressed alike. Their coloration varies
little with the season. The coat OF
long, shaggy, golden brown fur pro-
tects them from the cold. They have
lond noses and skulls, and they also
have longer curved claws than most
bears.
Bears, as you know, have very
keen sense of smell. Their eyesight is
very poor. Because their vision is so
defective, they stand up on their hind
legs to get better view Poor things,
many have been shot because of this
habit-not understood by man. If
you remain STILL the bear cannot
distinguish you from any other object.
True, if the wind is in the right direc-
ton, he will know by scent of your
presence.
In October the grazing bears may
be seen on the rugged mountain tops
near the timber line. They have been
putting on fat all Summer The caves
or dens are among the rocks, where
natural crevices may be found.

fast. Father Bear comes out Of It's
den first. He eats sparingly of the
tender green vegetation he finds, and
later he will add fish to his diet.
Some time in January or the first
of February the twins are born. Oc-
casionally there are triplets and even
four have been seen. They are no
larger than a rat. Both of the wee
ones could be held in a mans hand.
They weigh about l and sometimes
~ pounds. Think of baby that
size growing up to weigh over 1000
pounds!
The mother is devoted to her babies
and they snuggle close to her warm
body to sleep and to nurse. For the
first few weeks they are blind and
helpless. Soon they are so full Of life
and fun they are never still. except
at bedtime and at feeding hours.
When the warm sunshine has
coaxed the tender grass forth, about
the latter part of April, mother strolls
out with her wonderful babies. For a
few days she lets them wrestle and
tumble about in the bright sunshine.
then she decides it is high time her
children learn to eat the tender grass.
After this lesson she takes them down
to the water.
The rivers are filled with salmon
by now. They are coming up into the
shallow waters to spawn. With her
twins standing on the shore, the
mother enters the very shallow, clear
water and stands motionless. Slap!
Flip! Flop! The twins are amazed to
find a strange looking creature doing
somersaults at their feet. A word
from their mother is all that is needed.
They wait for her to come to them.
Then they have their first taste Of
fish "Uh. Um." "All right" says
mother. you must learn to do your
own fishing"
One foot is put into the cold water
and jerked back quickly. Don't be
'fraid cat" little brother seems to
, taunt. and so both step boldly in be-
side their mother. Such fun! Soon
the bank has many fish on it and the
anglers leave the water to dine.
When the fish become scarce, the
bears go toward the mountains. The
twins live with their mother the first
Winter, then they have their own den.
Bears find their mates in May and
are seen fishing and hunting together
until July. There is no record of the
father taking care of his children or
teaching them valuable lessons.

TRADING STARTED
ON TOBACCO MART
Futures Dealings Are First
in History of Big U. S.
Industry.
BY the Associated Press,


NEW YORK. September 19.-Trad-
ing in tobacco futures was inaug-
urated in the Tobacco Exchange in
New York today, providing for the
first time a futures market for this
commodity-one Of the richest cash
crops produced in America.
The first transaction was the pur-
chase of a contract of 10000 pounds
United States standard flue cured, type
l2B4F. for January delivery, at price
of 29.05 cents a pound. The buyer
was Samuel T. Hubbard of Hubbard
Bros, and the seller was James Eblen
There was excited bidding by men,
bers Of the exchange Immediately
after the opening gong sounded at
noon.
In rapid-f1re order prices for the re-
present were established. The opening
calls were as follows: February, 2895
bid; March, 1880 bid; April, 1880 bid,
offered at 2s.70 May, 29.35 bid; June,
1880 bid; July, 2960 bid; August,
1880 bid.
President John w. Hanes said in
remarks preceding the opening that
the exchange had been established
for the purpose of aiding the grower
of tobacco. the merchant and manu-
facturer, all of whom, he said, could
not fail to benefit by organized trad
ing facilities which the exchange Of
fered.
The exchange was organized, ac-
cording to its sponsors, to aid orderly
marketing of the tobacco crop by
giving the trade an opportunity to
hedge its purchases and sales and
to provide a barometer for prices
and to reduce the cost Of marketing
The trading unit is 10000 pounds,
with quotations in cents and five one
hundreds of a cent a pound. De-
livery points have been established
at Newport News, Va; Norfolk and
Louisville, KY.
Heretofore marketing Of tobacco
has been done chiefly through auction
sales.
Eight months, starting with Janu-
airy. comprise the futures trading
schedule for the present, with four
more months to be added later.
United States standard flue-cured
type II, grade B4F, was chosen as
the contract basis, with nine types
deliverable under specified differen-
tialS.

18TH ANNIVERSARY
Nationwide Celebration, Start

of More Than $12,o00,0o0.

A Nationwide birthday party. the
4sth anniversary celebration of Sears,
Poebuck g. Co., starts in all parts
Of the country tomorrow. Prepara-
tions for the party involved the ex-
penditure Of more than $l2,000,000
and the efforts of about 20, 900 people

long period of activity on the part
Of the local personnel, which has been
arranging certain surprises in con-
nection with the party. The ami
versary will extend from September

The celebration is considered one
of the most interesting birthday
parties promoted by any large COM
pany.
The comany was founded in Sep
tember, 1886, by Richard w. Sears,
who began selling watches by mail
from the little railroad station of
North Redwood, Mimi, where he was
