There once an old English woman named Bethla Rum- my, who attended service every Sunday morning at St, Elze- vir, distant some two miles from her cottage, on a hillside in Derbyshire, As regular In her provision of temporal wants as she was In attendance to spiritual necessittes, her custom was to place a plece of bacon dn a pot near the fre to be cooked against her return, Then with her big prayer book wrapped in a snowy white handkerchief, Bethia trudged off to St. Blzevir's, One Sun- y, however, she went late, and flustered to her usual place, Just In front of the reading desk, and to her vicar's astonishment remarked as she unfolded the snowy hand- kerohief: “Lawk a dalzy me!

It was a huge leather affair which stood in the centre of the apartment. The three bridesmaids were gathered about It Two of them sat on the floor while the third walked quickly from one chalr to another inspecting the bridal finery, and fitfully putting the dainty articles of apparel away. The bride to be, a very pretty blonde 2 | with masses of chestnut hair artfully ar- ranged to glye her height, and a skin of the tender pink- ness of primroses, sat regally on a large sofa In one end of the room and looked on, “Wihy shouldn't T think of such a thing?" she replied slowly to. the tall bridesmaid, drawing a very charming red and white kimono around her as she spoke. GEORGIA MAUD* Marry on the 18th, MARSHALL, good graciou's!” chimed In the girl in the blue cloth gown, “it's dreadfully unlucky.” “Really, Georgie, you should be care- ful. You may affect the happiness of your whole life!’ sald the smaii girl in the Monte Carlo coat, “Why don't you girls take off your things?" Interrupted the hostess, ‘You have been here in those heavy coats for an hour, I should think you would roast In them orgie, 1 don't see how you can be so calm, Belng married at all ts un- lucky enough—I don't mean unlucky uncertain, without choosing a day that even the most ignorant person knows {5 sure to bring bad luck." ‘The prospective bride played with the scarlet edge of her kimono for a while. She was timid even among her intimate friends, and never had an.opinion when she could help It, “1 don't believe in bad luck,” she eatd finally, desperately. ‘There is no such thing,"” “What! gasped the three bridesmaids In chorus, “Why, Georgie, you are out of your mind!" ‘Then came a torrent of words from the tall bridesmaid. “Why, Georgie, do you know what you are saying? The wisest man or woman in the world wouldn't be married ‘on the 13th, Napoleon wouldn't fight a battle on the 18th when he could hep {t, And he was the bravest man that ever Hyed." ' ‘Then the girl In the blue dress in- terrupted: “If you don’t believe in bad luck, why of course you don’t belleve In good luck elther. Until I was seventeen I was always unlucky.

My mother was married on tha, .;, very 13th of November that I have se- |) lected for my wedding day." For a moment the group of bridee~ mails seemal staggered by the a nouncement. Then the tall one sald, “Of course, Georgie, we all know that your mother and father are an Ideal couple, that they, aire perfectly, perfectly happy! But don't you think they must feel sorry , sometimes, when they think how much happler they would have been if they, had been married on any other day?” It was a delightful Olt of feminine logic, but the daughter did not seem thorovghly to appreciate it. “Grandma was married on the ‘13th of November,’ too," she said, “Why, Its a" family tradition.
