SIMPLICITY bespeaks culture; extravagance is the voice of vulgarity. It’s natural for a young woman to regard her wedding day as the most important of her life, and to wish to observe it accordingly. But in all arrangements, whether it be in the selection of the trousseau or plans for a church ceremony, she should remember that garish ostentation is extremely bad taste. Studied simplicity has more charm.
1. Wedding invitations should be issued not earlier than four weeks, not later than two weeks, before the wedding ceremony. 2. The couple to be married should consult carefully together in making up the invitation Ust. 3. The wedding reception must De given by the bride’s family; never by the groom’s family. 4. The bride’s family bears all expenses of the wedding, except the cost of the marriage Ucense, the bride’s bouquet, the wedding ring, the clergyman’s fee and gifts to the best man and ushers, which the groom pays. 5. The groom, if wise, will request the bride to select her own wedding ring: it’s something which she must wear all her life.

Elders Must Remember That Love Is Not for Sale
Mothers are wise. But sometimes even they forget. They forget what a bore Henry was, although he did have a large fortune, and how much more they liked Jim, even though he had to work when Henry was playing. Sometimes mothers urge their daughters to give the Henrys their attentions and neglect the Jims of the world. It is not that, they are not wise. It is Just that they forget.

SAGE TEA TURNS GRAY HAIR DARK it’s Grandmother’s Recipe to Bring Back Color and Lustre to Hair That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brewing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray or streaked, just an application or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its appearance a hundredfold. Don’t bother to prepare the mixture; you can get this famous old recipe itn proved by the addition of other ingredients at a small cost, all ready for use. It is called Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be depended upon to bring buck the natural color and lustre of your hair. Everybody uses "Wyeth’s” Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it an<i draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disappeared, and after another application it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous. —Advertisement.

LETTER FROM MRS. JOSEPH GRAVES HAMILTON TO HER PROSPECTIVE SON-IN-LAW, JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT. MY DEAR BOY: l i’eel that 1 know you well enough to call you this, my dear John, because my little girl has done nothing but talk of you since she came home. 1 confess that at first 1 was rather disappointed as well as doubtful as to her marriage with you. There are so many young men here in her own town that both her father and I have known ever since they were children who, it seemed to me, would make a most suitable match. Besides, 1 hated to feel that when Leslie married she would go to another city; but of course 1 have lived long enough to know that, when love speaks, we fathers and mothers must step aside.
i need not tell you, my dear John, that my daughter Leslie is one of the sweetest girls in ajl the world. Os course, you must realize, however, that she has never had any great responsibilities. I have always been one of those old-fashioned mothers that think that a girl’s youth should be given to good times and happiness, if possible. After marriage, responsii bilities come quickly enough, i Leslie’s father tells me that he has i heard very good reports of you from some of his friends, in his business man’s colloquialism lie said, "That boy is a hustler and unless he gets shunted on the wrong track. I think he will make Leslie a good husband.’’ To Meet Your Mother t shall be very' much pleased to meet ( your mother, my dear John. Os course she will come on for the wedding which, if it is agreeable to you. we] have set for Saturday, the twenty- ■ second of next, month. That will give ns jnst six weeks to ritake the prepa- j rations. i don't know whether you know lr, ] but Leslie’s father and I ran away I to be married, and I have always had j a little sorrowing pang to think that ; the most important event of my life j was not the occasion of more cere- j mony. I want both my daughters to re- j member their wedding day not only i with great joy, but with great pride. ; Leslie has held in the hearts of the ; younger set in Sharon a unique place. \ Ever since her coming out party, I think she has been the moet popular girl in the town You should know. John, that you have taken her away I
