Von are mighty, brooding pines.

And vour jiront. gatiift shadows crush

And your sullen sllvm-c holds tne

"Just today 1 went for water to a lit
tle silver spring.
Whore the air was sweet and scar
let berries grew;
And my dreams came flocking home

took wing
Till the night crawled forth to
mea me. Then I knew.
"I nni stranger to your silence: I am
nllrn to your might;
I nni longing for a little, laughing
world.
Where the days went dancing past
me. for my heart was very light:
And from many friendly hearths
the smoke tipcurled.
"Yet he loves you. lonely mountains,
nud ho savs he loves me, too.
And his cabin nestles trusting at
your feet:
Hut my heart Is torn with longing
for the gentle laud knew .
And the careles hours when lift
was very sweet.
"Will you always frown upon me
through the weary, weary years.
Till my dream-home fades to si

One of tho daintiest and luckiest
of color schemes for a bride Is
white and blue. According to
ancient custom, all girls named
Mnry will be fortune's favorites If
choosing these colors for their wed

secrnted to the Virgin Mnry. Mary
Stuart, however, was married In
white nnd blue, but In her case the
charm was not potent.
Old superstition forbade the
groom to gaze on the bride In fes
tal nttlre until he saw her at the
altar; If he did. the wedding was
put In peril. The bride must not

In Greece the wreath Is often

The bridal veil ban been the sub
Jet i of much discussion. Source of
origin of custom not definitely
known. The ancient Anglo-Saxons
bad four men hold a sciuaro piece
of cloth In place of the present
veil over the bride and groom dur
ing the ceremony, to hide their
blushes! Then It wns argued that
It was ronllj the bride tlmf uoeded
It. Thus the heavy cloth wns grad

fabric, which. If perchance tho brldo

If. while on the wny to church
the brldo should see n dove. n
lamb or a spider, or a tond, or n
wolf, she can nlwnys bo cortaln of

Is rather a bad omen to meet a pig,
a monk, n cat. n hare, or a ser
