TALE OF ORANGE BLOSSOM Legend of Spain Tells How It Was First Used nt a Wedding in That Country. The wearing of orange blossom at a wedding i8 accounted for in various wa 's. Among other stories i8 the following popular Ie. geed from Spain : An African king presented a Spanish king with a magnificent orange tree , whose creamy , waxy blossoms and wonderful fragrance excited thc admiration of the whole court. Many : begged in vain for a branch of thc plant and a foreign ambas sailor was tormented bJ' a desire to introduce so great a curiosity to his native land. Hc used every possible means to accomplish his purpose , but all his efforts com- incr to naught he crave UP in de. spair. The fair daughter of the court gardener was loved by a young artisan , but she lacked the dowry which the family considered nec essary to a bride. One day , chance iug to break oti a spray of orange blossom , the gardener thought. lessly gave it to his daughtcr. Seeing thc coveted prize in the girl's hair the wily ambassador offered . fercd her a sum sufficient for the dowry , provided she gave him u branch and said nothing about it. Her marriage was soon celebrated - ed , and on her way to the altar ; in grateful remembrance of the source of all her happiness , sh\ secretly broke off another bit of the lucky tree to adorn her hair. .Vhethm' the poor court gardener - er lost his head in consequence of his daughtcr's treachery the Ie. Bend does not relate , but many lands now know the wonderful tree , and ever since that wedding day orange blossom has been considered - sidered a fitting adornment for a bride. NO REJECTED LOVERS.

JAQUET ' i : I understands that he i5 ! acccpted. As a matter of fact , a woman rarely , if ever , rejects an offer of 1 marriage , for i'icrra del Fucgall does not take a rejection patient- ' lJ' , and is apt to resent a denial bJ' _ wounding the damsel with an ar- row. I It is , perhaps , needless to add that there are no henpecked hus- bands in Tierra del Fucgo. The men , in fact band themselves together . gether 'in a sort of society , the aim of which is to keep the women in subjection. This curious cus- tom is thc outcome of a tradition . that the women . once had the upper - ' per hand , and forced the men to do all the drudgery , As men in a savage state are even more pl'eju- . diced against work than their civilized brothers , it is quite natural . 1 I ural that ' should take they mcns- ures accordingly.
