Slip decided upon the color ns every bride does. She de cided upon the kind of lints. Then she decided the stylo ot dresses mid with out consulting her friends nt nil she informed them whnt kind of costume they would wenr. Ouo of them mur mured it protest ngninst the short, high waist which would not do becoming to nny of them. The bride, being short nnd hlgh-waistcd herself, always wore her dresses thnt wny mid pre ferred them to the tin t n ml or long waist. When somebody suggested humbly thai, perhaps such short skirls wouldn't look well on the tall glrht, thn hrido hushed her quickly. "I like them short." she nnld. Thnt settled it. There wns nnother wedding Inst month in which Almn wns u bridesmaid. The bride nt this wedding was very willing to consult her friends about the dresses. "1 don't enre whnt ,rou do 'with thorn," she snid. "ns long ns I hnvc the color and the effect thnt I wnnt.

The other hridesninlds mnnnged to Inlk Almn out of that desire, nnd then she stnrtcd on the sleeves. "Thev oughtn't to he so long, bhe objected', "or else they ought to be fuller." This was changed for Alma, nnd then she mrtde nnother protest. She went on going ngninst the wishes of the hridu nnd the Oilier bridesmaids until they were nil sorry thnt they hnd ever thought of having a wedding.
