WAITING AT THE CHURCH.
Recently in Wanganui a wedding was due to take place and the bride and all the guests had assembled at the church, but for some unaccountable reason there was no sign of the bridegroom (says the Herald). The best man voluntarily turned Jiimself into a messenger and went to the house of the bridegroom ,there to find him tucked away in tlm blankets suffering from lumbago. He was a very astonished mail to learn that the party had assembled at the church, for caily in the morning,he had commissioned a young lady to deliver a message indicating the disability undei .which he was suffering, and that lie could not .possibly embark on a honeymoon under those conditions. The young lady wa_s evidently thinking about the prospects of her own wedding, for she forgot to deliver the message. The wedding duly took place some days later, the bridegroom having fully recovered from his temporary indisposition.
