After the ceremony his special care is the bridesmaid, and u there are toasts he replies tor her. After the reception, if the bridal couple are leaving for a honeymoon, he must see that all arrangements are made tor their comfort, giving special attention to the luggage, etc. “Emma.”— Compressed yeast can be obtained from grocery stores. “ Marnette.”—An evening dress tor a wedding should, be worn.to the church and reception. An evening coat and some kind of headdress; such as a cap or torque of tulle,'could bo worn with it, or a heavy coat and hat if preferred. These are worn to the church and removed before the reception and dance. In showing guests into a room the hostess would precede them if they were not familiar with the house. It they knew the house well she would allow them to enter the room first.

“Marjorie.”—There m no reason why a bridge coat should not he worn, in tram or train without another coat, if the weather is warm enough to justify it. A bridge coat is, of course, suitable only for evening wear, and does not look well worn with a hat. Short coats or . three-quarter-length coats of material matching or toning with the frock can be worn with street frocks and a hat.
