How tue Babylon Ladies' all Got

1t is we'll known that an auction Of unmarried
ladies used TO take place annually in Babylon. In
every district they assembled on certain day OF
every year all the virgins of mari ,geable age.
The most beautiful were put up, and the men who
bid the larges. sum Of money gained possession of
her. The second in personal appearance followed
aid the bidders grati6ed themselves with hand
some wives according to the depth of their purses
But alas. it seems there wore in Babylon some Ia
dies for which NJ money was likely to be offered
yet these also were disposed of, provident were
the BlbylOnians When all the beautiful virgins
were disposed Of, TIE crier ordered the most de-
formed % stani up. and after he had openly de-
manGed who would marry her for small sum, she
was At length adiuiged to the man who would be
satisfied with the least and in this manner the
money rising from the sale of the handsome serv-
ed as portion TO those who were either Of disa-
greeable looks, or that had any imperfeeion
This custom prevailed about 500 years before

the joker, "for | should think a semi-eoion in me

first made an Interrogation point, and when the
thing flashed on him an exclamation, which was
increased when third party observed that the
joke, though not very good, was rather an uncom

this which was funny. A doctor had said that A
