The bridesmaids who followed in her train, though garbod in light and dainty fabrics suited to their position and tho feative occasion, wore black velvet habs and feathers. Everyone remarked on this fact with surprise. A few years earlier it would have been little short of unlucky for a bride, if her attendant maids had appeared in
dis within a week, especially if they all take a dose of Beigol's Byrup immediately on rising from the table.
