FORCE OF HABIT.
The place was crowded. It wasn't exactly a fashionable wedding, but there was no gainsaying the interest it caused. Naturally, perhaps, because both bride and bridegroom had been much in the public eye-^she as an actress, he as a conjuror. Everything went smoothly until they reached the critical stage of the proceedings, and the clergyman called for the ring to be produced.
The bridegroom • plunged his hand into liis pocket and brought out a rabbit. Then the horrified look '.n the clergyman's eyea and a little startled exclamatoin from the bride made him realise there was something wrong. He looked down and saw the rabbit.
"Pardon," he said; "wrong act."
