Among the hajipy traditions sur rounding the , wedding ceremony- Is the Breakfast with the cutting of the bride's cake for the guests. Its to"vh of plicate formality leaves a lasting impression of Joy and prom Ise. Diwn through the ages our cere tnonles have grown and what oe of them Is more hallowed than the wed ding feust? . " Individual tastes vary from time to time but a Simpieness and exqulsit ness Js decoration and service give the greatest satisfaction to all. So we must keep this In mind when we are choosing our sHver, und linen, the crystal, the flavors and the menu. If the wedding is In the after noon, a reception follows ut which our guests are served from a long table which can be covered with a plain damask, or a filet cloth. It can be decorated with a crystal or silver in delabrum with unshaded white can Hi .Sew asnions . The- woman who permits Fashion's Spring edicts to guide her, finds herself growing younger every, minute. Youthfulness is the motto of the vKour, the acknowledged objective of every mode we have assembled for spring selling. Come and . see the new fashions fresh from the makers. In dicative of present style trends, these interpreta tions also hint at scores of wearables to . come. They are marked at our new regular 'lowered prices. - - . , v , . . ; Happily this is a season when no women needs to lament that the modes were not designed for her because presented in engaging variety are plenty of dress models to suit every type.

Small silver or glass vases of lilies of the valley c5n be scattered about tbe table. Here we shall display all the dain ties In, sandwiches, lees, cakes, candies and we shn!! serve it a,U (ln our best Haviland china. " And each guest must have his bit of wedding sake. It is most Indls peiisible. Frequently pieces of the cake are wrapped in Binall squares and handed to each one ere he departs. The wedding breakfast following a noon ceremony calls for little more preparation and If the guests are too numerous to sit with the bridal part they may" be served In smaller tables each of which is set with complete service and Its center piece of flow ers. Of course the main (Rcoration of the bridal table is' the wedding cake elaborately built, though it Is preferable not to have It too high and thus prevent those sitting opposite one another from seeing ncjoss. It has, been often recommended that the decorations be emal land not uild up a barrier to conviviality and Joy. The menu can start with an oyster cocktail. It a fruit punch is pre ferred to pledge the bride and ' her bridegroom, it can be served In deli cate glasses o .plain crystal or even with a gold encrusted band If It matches the design of the china.
