She rang the bell of the bride's erstwhile abode, and said to the maid who answered, “I have come to get some of the details of the wedding which took place yesterday.” The servant looked very much puzzled for a moment and then answered. “I'm awfully sorry, Miss', but everything is finished. You ought to have come last night. The company ate up every scrap.” o CANDIDATES THAtyK FRIENDS.
