Since weddings THE BRIDAL BOUQUET 1S S TIM MADE LL NG GAY 1B1 LARGE SHOWER BOUQU: AND IS THROWN AS DESCRIBED. are not frequent occasions, it is not surprising that these rules should prove baffling to a bride and her family who gzive the entertainment, and at whose house the marriage takes place unl se 2 church wedding or is given at sorhe hotel.

However, there is a charm about a reception given at the bride’s home that cannot be duplicated in a hotel. jeil or Hat. At a church wedding the bride wears a vell, if in full bridal costume, or a hatg_if in traveling costume. Brides- maids wear hats. If the ceremony is in a home or hotel these rulings are not imperative. Iven the bride need have no head covering if she chooses to omit the elusive charm of the veil. Receiving Line. The bride and bridegroom receive with the mald of honor or matron of honor next her and the bridesmalds by her, or half by her side and half by the side of the bridegroom. After guests have been presented and have gone to the dining room for the breakfast o refreshments the bridal party follows. The members are sup- posed to leave their positions about the time the second course is served it there is as much formality as a seated breakfast. When this is the case the order of seating is naturul; the maid of honor by the bridegroom and the best man at right of bride. Then follow the bridesmaids and the ushers in_couples, according to the pairing off for the bridal procession. it there is dancing, the bride and bridegroom dance the first time to- gether, then the bridegroom dances with the maid of honor and the other maids. The best man is next partner for the bride, and he is expected to dance with the bridesmaids also. Throwing the Bouquet. When the bride goes to don her going-away costume the bridesmalds gather around her at the foot of the stairs and the other unmarried girls about them and the bride throws her bouquet. The one catching it is sup- posed to be married next. It is a pretty idea for the bouquet to be ar- ranged in sections for the bride to take apart and throw separately. It must be remembered that the one who gets the first spray is the favored one and the rest merely have dainty nosegays. One bride threw her bou- quet in this way as she stood in a balcony overlooking the ballroom. As pleasing an effect in a less formal way can be had at a wedding recep- tion held on a lawn if the bride stands on a plazza and throws her bouquet from there. Departure of Couple. The mother and sisters of the bride, as well as the mald of honor and bridesmaids, attend the bride when she changes her costume. Just before going to the auto the bride kisses her mother last and runs through a path- way betwen guests lined up on either side and each holding rice and con- fetti, or merely the latter. The bride- groom meets her at the foot of the staircase and together they literally run away. AGO TODAY Story of the U. S. A. A. RAWSON, JR. Parker Puzzles Lee. CHARLE=TON, §.

These uninvited visitors have now heen with us one week, and although they have not told us so, our people know full well that very soon they will endeavor to come ashore and take our town away from us. We are at present making it our business to see that they shall have plenty of exciting things to do whenever they come into our midst. Str Peter’s warships can do no dam- town unless they can fight through the channel in front of Sullivan’s Island. Two daj ago, Gen.

Though he was down on the ground, Peter THE CATERPILLAR WHICH RED- WING HAD DROPPED DOWN TO HIM WAS CRAWLING AWAY, rould see what was happening. Tt seemed as if a little portion of that white patch had moved off by itself. That i what it looked like. Then it moved back and joined the big patch. Presently Peter saw it move off again. How he did wish that he could get close to it so that he could see just happening. 'What is it " he cried. “Do tell me just structed, could prevent the passage of the channel by the warships. He has even proposed to President John Rut- ledge of the South Carolina conven- tion that the defenses on Sullivan's Island be abandoned, and that all at- tention be centered on the land de- fenses. Mr. Rutledge did not agree to this proposal, nor did Col. Moultrie suspend his work on his fort in order to construct a bridge from the island for use In case of a retreat. In short, our brave militia are not making plans for a retreat anywhere, but are pre- paring for a most spirited defense at whatever point may be necessary. Gen. Clinton’s landing on Long Island, foretelling a land attack, was followed yesterday by a move which may be the first maneuver for a water attack. A large number of enemy ships came over the bar and anchored about 3 miles from Sullivan's Island. Thereupon there was greatly Increased activity in fortifying the town. Em- bankments were thrown up at landing places, barricades erected across the streets, and warehouses torn down on the waterfront to allow for free action for the militia cannon.

BURGESS what it means. away to see.” Redwing chuckled. “It means,” said he, “that that caterpillar that I dropped down to you all covered with the cast-off skins of these aphids fsn't the only enemy they have who fis smart enough to hide in this way. There is another one up here.” “Is it another caterpillar?’ Peter. “No,” said Redwing. “It isn't a caterpillar, It isn't at all like a caterpillar. It is a queer fellow with big jaws, and some day it will turn into a beautiful pale-green fly called the lace-wing fly, just as that cater- pillar will“turn into a butterfly if nothing happens to it. This thing isn’t at all pretty now, but it cer- tainly is a terror to these aphids. That's what it lives on. It sucks them dry and it has covered itself all over with the skins so that it will not be seen. That is what made it seem to you as if a part of this patch of aphids moved off by itself and thén came back again. It really was this fellow covered with the skirs of aphids. He certainly is a hungry fel- low. I've heard that he's called aphis lion, but of course he really is a young lace-wing fly, just as a caterpillar is a young butterfly.” “I never think of a caterpillar as being a young butterfly,” replied Peter. Redwing chuckled. “A caterpillar may not be a young butterfly, but when it isn’t a young caterpillar it is a young moth. If you think of a tadpole or pollywog as a young frog or a young toad, why can’t you think of a caterpillar as a young butterfly or a young moth? That's what it really is. And this queer-looking bug up here all covered with the skins of the aphids is a young lace-wing fly. My gracious, he’s a hungry fellow! If he keeps on I guess he'll finish all these aphids before he is through. If you were up here, Peter Rabbit, you probably wouldn’t see him at all un- less he happened to move. It takes sharp eyes like the eyes of a bird to see a fellow so well hidden as he fs.”” Peter looked down at his feet. The caterpillar which Redwing had drop- ped down to him was crawling away. “And to think,” said Peter, “that I have thought that I knew all there was to know about the things around me. I suppose nobody knows all there is to know."” Peter had spoken aloud, a way he sometimes has when talking to him- sel’. Of course Redwing heard him. Redwing laughed right out. ‘“Peter,” said he, “I've got pretty good eyes, but every single day I see things right around me that T have never seen before. That is one of the joys of living, There wouldn't be any fun in living if one knew all there was to know. It is finding out new things that brings joy into life. Now I must be going along. By the way, have ou ever smelled the perfume of a utterfly?™ Instantly Peter pricked up his ears. “What's that?" he eried, but already Redwing wap oo hls wag, You know I'm too far cried THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

What TomorrowMeans toYou BY MARY BLAKE. Gemini. Tomorrow’s planetary aspects are very favorable until about 2 pm., when they assume a doubtful and confusing condition. Later on in the evening they become definitely ad- verse, The early part of the day will prove extremely beneficial for all lit- erary and artistic efforts, and much good work of a useful character can be accomplished at this time. There will be clearness of vision, and situa- tions that appeared difficult of solu- tion or tasks that could not be car- rled out hitherto to your own satis- faction will, under the influences, be- come easy of arrangement and ac- complishment. Poise must be estab- lished during the balance of the day 1f untoward results are to be avoided. Children born tomorrow will during thelr first months suffer from physical weaknesses and will not readily yleld to the treatment that i3 prescribed for their betterment. There is no occasion, however, for discourage- ment, as, with patience and the right sort of alimentation, these little ones will outgrow their weaknesses and de- velop normaily along healthy and vig- orous lines. They will possess willful natures, and their desire, no matter at what or at whose cost, always to have their own way must not be generously considered as cute, but must be effectively curbed. These children wiil probably be rather selt- ish and, though anxious and eager to succeed in life, will not derive the happiness that they should from any degree of material advancement they may achieve. 1f tomorrow is your birthday anni- versary you are of a very contented nature, although this does not imply that you are satisfied. Your ambi- tions are moderate, and you never go out seeking fresh worlds to conquer, but limit your desires more to happi- ness, comfort and ease than to the harder struggles that great achieve- ments always entafl. You are fairly but not exceptionally intelligent, and you are pleased with a smattering of knowledge rather than with pro- fundity. You are not exactly lazy, but if there were some incentive urging you on, your efforts would be not only more consistent but more concen- trated, Your home life, given your lack of restlessness and your aversion to ex- citement, is uneventful and peaceful. ‘Well known persons born on that date are: John Blair Smith, educator; George Bush, theologian; John Young, lawyer and Congressman; John_A.

J A person of quality does not belofig to any one class. He may belong to the artistic, mechanical or sclentific class, either appreciatively or execu- tively. Nature stamps men and animals of quality and otherwise. Most any cas- ual observer is able to pick a thor oughbred horse from a dobbin which pulls the onehorse shay. The man of quality walks with his shoulders well back, his head high and his step firm. He will possess many high traits and a large degree of physical perfection. The face, if read sclentifically, will reveal these traits. In addition to the above, you will find that he has a fine, clear skin and bright eyes, not too coarse hair, well proportioned nose and jaws, full lips, rounded cheeks, a full voice, rich and smooth, with ears well modeled. His mental caliber may be told by a fully developed, high forehead, pro- portionately broad for its length. He must exhibit both gentleness and spirit, as occasions require: he must be governed by the law of justice and make the comfort of his associates his concern and do what is right to enhance thelr happiness. Lacking in these qualities, you will know that he is not & man of quality, and train- ing and education will never make him one. (Covyright, 1826.) HOW IT STARTED = BY JEAN NEWTON. “Catch a Tartar.” This expression, which we use so generally in the sense of being out- witted, of meeting more than one's match, had its origin in a humorous anecdote. = It is an anecdote of the Russo- Burkish war and of a Russian sol- dier who during a battle with the Turks called to his captain that he had caught a tartar, “Bring him along, then,” was the answer. “But he won't come,” sald the sol- dter. “Then come yourself,” answered the officer. “But he won't let me,” said the struggling private. Hence the aptness of the expres- slon with the significance in modern speech cannot be questioned. (Copyright. 1926.) Lessons in English b, BY W. L.

How to Be Attractive |DorothyDix “To Good Looks and Pretty Clothes Add Intelli- gence and Humor, Sweeten With Amiability, Flavor With Pep of Modern Ways.” A YOUNG woman writes asking if T will give her a formula for attrac- tiveness. Why, my dear child, there is no regular cut-and-dried follow- this-recipe-and-you-cannot-fail rule for acquiring attractiveness, as there is for making a sponge cake. Attractiveness doesn’t even consist in possessing any specific qualities. It depends on a thousand intangible assets. Nor is there any standard of attractiveness. It is purely a matter of taste, for the very attributes that draw some of us toward an individual repulse others. Some worship the tall, stately, goddess type of woman. Others prefer the pocket Venus. Some adore the roly-poly girl. Others will look at nothing but a living skeleton. The college high-brow and the beautiful but dumb, each have their following. There are those who are vamped by the vivacious and those who prefer the quiet girl with the Madonna look in her eyes. So_there you are, with every man having his own ideal of what he finds attractive in a woman. So what is a poor girl to do? As I have said, there are no plans and specifications that always work for making a charmer, but if I were giving a recipe for attractiveness I should say: . Take all the good looks. natural and artificial, upon which you can lay your hands. Beauty is not absolutely necessary in a woman, for some of the most fascinating women who have ever lived have been as homely as mud fences, but it is undeniable that pulchritude is a great help. Especially in the beginning, for we all just naturally like to look upon a woman who is easy on the eyes. Fortunately, the great majority of people are not cannoisseurs in beauty and do not demand the real, bottled-in-bond and blown-in-the-glass brand. They are willing to take & woman at her face value, so to speak, and this :;m:)l}eln ilr]s who ar; dnott really pretty to pass off on the public synthetic 00d looks compounded of cosmetics and the latest thing S a gay jeoe l"_lllarmlng e esf ing in bobs and gay aving, then, secured an adequate supply of good looks by hook or by crook, if nature did not provide them for you, see that they ira caremllg' o 0 cleaned.

(Copyright. 1026.) 1 f r Answer—First of all, make sure that some congenital heart trbuble or an enlarged thymus is not the cause. It it is just a little spunky habit, sometimes a countershock, like a small, smart tap on the hand or a few drops of water thrown in the baby's face, will cure her of this an- noying little trick. Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. Vegetables. Mrs. W. A. S. writes: “What vege- tables should be included in the diet of a 9-month-old baby?"” Answer—Spinach, carrots, beans, peas, caulifiower, turnip, squash and asparagus. Be sure that all of these are well cooked and run through a very fine wire sleve. Mrs. H. M. writes: ‘“My baby is 2 months old and weighs 14 pounds. What should he the average gain per month?"” Answer—Your baby is an extraordi- narily large welght for its age. The average gain per month should be about a pound and a half for the first six months; a trifle less than that after six months. Mrs. J. T. writes: “What is the cause and cure for rickets in a 4- month-old child?"” Answer—An improper dlet of the mother during the pre-natal and lacta- tion period and lack of sunlight for the child are the probable cause of rickets for so young a baby. Cod- liver oil, sunlight and correction of the diet will bring about a cure. Mrs, H. S. writes: “What should I do with my baby when she holds her breath?"” PILL-SLAVE FREED FROM CONSTIPATION Kellogg’s ALL-BRAN brought natural relief in a few weeks Beauty experts agree on this simple method To xesp the fresh, youthful loveliness of your skin, keep it clean!

Early in the last century a few American grape vines were carried to the French vineyards for breeding purposes. Some fungi were imported with the vines which are very de- structive to grapes. Immediately a dreadful plague of grape mildew broke out. In order to stop the ravages of the disease more American vines were introduced, because they were hardy and not susceptible to the fungus. But because there was then no plant in- spection or quarantine, some destruc- tive insects were also introduced with the new vines, and proved to be a worse pest than the fungus. The French government offered a prize for the invention of a cheap and effective cure for the fungl and in- sects. Presently an inventor came for- ward avith Bordeaux mixture, which is the cheapest and best all-around spray for most plants. The inventor, by some mischance, never got his money, but the diseases of grapes had really turned out to be a blessing, because they brought forth the discovery of Bordeaux mixture.

A certain mechanism of response to exertion which the heart develops by physical training is called Athletes in training try to develop “wind,” that is, they try to train the heart to respond to exertion 8o that they will not get out of breath so soon. Dr. E. H. Arnold, head of the New Haven Normal School of Gymnastics, says: “Boys, in their more strenuous activity, get many chances to develop this mechanism. For girls, I can think of no handler, safer or more suitable form of ex- ercise to procure such development than rope jumping.” Dr. Arnold ought to know what's what, because it is from his school that the best trained teachers or physical directors are graduated. Skipping the rope is an excellent exercise to prevent drowning. How can that be? Well, suppose a fairly good swimmer undertakes a rather long swim in deep water. If he should lose his breath, get out of wind, he might easfly drown. That probably explains the drowning of many per- sons who were good swimmers. When any one skips the rope, whether it be a short rope swung by the rope skipper himself or a long one swung by some one else, the im- mediate effect of the exertion is an increase of 20 or 30 beats of the heart to the minute. This increase in the pulse rate occurs with just one or two or three jumps. But a peculiar effect follows half & dozen or more jumps, in the normal individual. Then the pulse rate slows down somewhat—in other words, the heart, responding to the demand, settles down to a steady pull, and this is practically an automatic safety mechanism, which regulates the effort the rope skipper will put forth. Dr. Arnold admits that “a Greek malden died from rope skipping years ago,” but he adds that in his experi- ence with physical activities, extend- ing over a period of 40 years or more, not a single instance of serious harm BRADY, M. D. from rope skipping has come to his notice. He maintains that rope skip- ping must be in some way benefical, else it would not have been handed down through the ages as a universa! form of play. Among the benefits in this form of play or exercise are these. It is en- Joyable, interesting and exhilarating. It affords individual competition, yer is not emotionally disturbing or ex hausting as_certain organized forms of play, such as basket ball, may be for girls.
