"She must'have pricked her finger on a rose thorn some time, and could not play her violin afterwards." This was the. naive explanation of a woman in the audience at the final concert given in Sydney by Erica Morini (says a Sydney correspondent). Erica persistently ' ignored her flowers at every one of her concerts. She neither stopped on the platform long enough to receive them, nor looked at them . when she came back, nor carried them off. '• "That, is the only reason," continued the woman, "why she can snub those beautiful flowers."- But maybe Erica is not used to receiving flowers i at her concerts, and. doesn't quite know. ! how to handle the new situation.. In London and New York flowers are unknown; both on the concert platform and on the stage. ■ It is an inflexible rule of the theatres arid concert halls [that they shall not be handed up to artists. They may be sent to the dressing rooms, but even this is not customary. -The offering of flowers and the pursuit of the autograph-hunt-er at the close of concerts' are peculiarly Australian. | A Wedding Suggestion. [ -It is indeed a fortunate family which possesses 'among its heirlooms, lengths of exquisite handmade lace wherewith to veil its daughters on their marriage day. Others not so fortunate, however, will rejoice in; the suggestion put forth by a London house at its'dress parade, says a London writer; The veil worn with one • satin bridal creation which presented almost a Kate Greenaway effect with its'waist raised two inches above the normal line, was of delicate spotted Brussels net edged with' a woven floral design. Rarebits That'are Different. Most people like a Welsh rarebit to finish-. off ■ a well-planned little meaL There are, however, other ways-of dealing, with this popular cheese dish; ways •which make for variety and lend a more piquant flavour. Try, for instance, slicing some tomatoes and stale cheddar cheese, and frying them together • in butter, seasoning with pepper, salt, and a dash of vinegar. Spread over rounds of buttered toast or fried bread and scry.c.d piping .hot; this makes an excellent savoury. Mushrooms "may be used instead of tomatoes, if obtain- J able, and will provide still another ! variation. They must be cut, finely! and cooked for-a1 few minutes before the: cheese Is added; >' ■ Home Tor Aged Needy. V ' !■ The'; matron ' of the Home for Aged Needy acknowledges with-'thanks- the following gifts' to the home: —The Governor-General (Sir Charles Fergusson), a case of salmon; the Two-Gar-ment Society, good useful clothing;' The .Vienna, confectionery; Mra.

Carlyon, of "Gwavas," Central Hawkes Bay, to Mr..

The cerenioiay was performed by the Bey. J. Pigott, vicar of Waipawa, and .the service, .was choral. The bride was escorted T)y,.lier brother, Captain E. B. T.

Her bouquet was of cream and yellow freezias, irises, orchids, and chrysanthemums. The three little bridesmaids—Misses Gillian, Virginia, and Jennifer Carlyon, looked very charming in their Kate Greenaway dresses of cineraria blue. They carried Victorian posies composed of roses, pansies, and other blue flowers. Commander Boyle, 8.N., was best man. The bridegroom's presents to the bride were two wristlet watches, one set with diamonds, and one of gold.' The bride's present to the bridegroom was a gold cigarette case.

Tho Wellington Suburban Nursing Bivißion met recently, when the sub;iect for practise was "Artificial Bespirafcon.' Messrs. Cyril Claridge and Alexander, of the Maranui Life Saving Club, attended, and gave demonstrations^ explaining the various movements and the reasons for them.

Mrs. M'Whannell, who presided, thanked the demonstrators and Scouts for so kindly giving their services to farther Rrat Aid work, and expressed the appreciation of members of such an" opportunity to practise under the guidance of experts.

Momentary. Musings. "Sadness alone, I fancy, is associated by most of us with the familiar words: 'Whom the gods love, die young!' The Great War claimed many such; the poet Rupert Brooke among them," writes "M. de F" in an English exchange. "Some there are who seem to wear that predestined godlike aura, and the author of 'If I should die—' was pre-eminently of the company. But the other day I' heard a newer and sunnier interpretation of the oft-quoted phrase. It was applied to Ellen Terry, who, in her rich old age, did indeed 'die young'—beloved of the gods! Strange how hitherto it had remained, unrevealed, the simple truth that flashed suddenly across one's consciousness,, and lent brave, fresh import to words that had held but one tragic meaning. Souls that the gods have dowered are impervious to the onslaughts of time. Whom the gods Jove, die young—in spirit if not in years." . ■ St. Mary's Home Bazaar. The Mayoress (Mrs. G. A.
