meats, candies Of the sort known to
the Japanese confectioners, and eastera

Now, having briefly described Kiku's
wedding, perhaps We should stop here.
Although fairly married, however, Kiku
was not through the ceremonies Of the
night Before her own parents left the
house she was taken by the attendant
ladies before her parents in law, and with
them drank cups Of wine and exchanged
gifts. All the bridal presents were dis
played during the evening in her dressing
room, and the whole of her trouSeau was
open to the inspection Of all the ladies
present. Feasting and dancing were the
order of the hours until midnight, aud
then Kiku's parents bade her farewell, and
she was left bride in new home,
"Where did the young couple go p
"What was the route Of their bridal.tour2"
These are American questions. The fash
ion Of making bridal tours is not Japanese.
"At home" for three days is the general
rule in Japan. All their friends came to
see them, and presents were showercd on
the happy pair. On the third day after
her marriage Kiku assisted her parents,
and after that spent many days in return
ing the visits Of all who had called on her.

Ths Man who Inyen.ed the cireular Saw.

In a lonely, secluded position in the
northwest corner Of the cemetery near the
ever beautiful little village of Richmond,
Kalamazoo county, Michigan, the historian
can find, on pure white marble slab,
nearly concealed from view by large
cluster Of lilac bushes, engraved the simple
name Of Benjamin Cummings, born 1879;
died A. ID. 1S43 And who was Bepja-
min CummiBgs2 He was the inventor Of
circular saws, now in use in this country
and in Europe. Nearly sixty years ago,
at Burtonyillc, New York, near Amster-
dam, this man hammered out, at his own
blacksmith's anvil, the first circular saw
known to mankind. He was noted pio.
neer in Richmond, first cousin to one Of
the Presidents Of the United States, a
slaye-owner in New York State, leading
Mason in the days of Morgan, and at
whose table the very elect Of the then
great State Of New York feasted and
drank freely of his choice liquors and
wines, vessel owner on the North river
before the days Of steamboats,, captain in
the war Of 1912, where, after having three
horses shot from under him, with one
stroke Of his sword he brought his supe-
rior officer to the ground for an insult, and
because he was traitor and a coward !;
aud after having been court-martialed,
instead Of having been shot, he was ap-
pointed Colonel in his place. And in this
lowly grave are the ashes Of the man who,
nearly seventy years ago, at Albany, N.
T., took up and moved bodily large brick
buildings, and, to the wonder and astonish-
ment of the world, constructed mile and
a-half Of the Erie Canal through bed Of
rock, and who also bsilt, per contract,
those first low bridges over the same. He
also aided in the construction of the first
ten miles of railroad built in the United
States, and founded both the villages Of
Esperance aud Burtonyille, on the old
Schoharie, near Amsterdam Detroit Free
