HoME-spuN LINEN

The Scottish peasantry were wont to
take great pride in stock of home made
linen and the family was poor indeed
where the guid-wife was without an en-
viable portion of such goods IN contempla-
tion of her own household necessities, and
of her BARNS marriage providing. How
true it IS that such feelings OF decent
pride have their moral advantages. Is it
not true that the thrift, the cleanliness,
and independent spirit. proved by the pos
session of such articles, are at least akin
TO virtue? Some pieces were kept with
singular care, such as either of par
tieular texture, or as being the manufac-
ture of beloved mother. But above all,
there is one called 'sthe weelhained
web - that was the dead linen, re-
served for winding sheets. This was
consecrated, and there were usually sew
eral ready -nlade robes of the same stuff to
dress the body ere the blood was cold,

BEHR1Ne, AID WHO He WAS.


The great triumph which Nordenskjold
has gained has naturally drawn attention
| to his predecessors, and among them more
especially to Behring, from whom the strait
which separates America from Asia has re-.
celved its name. The northeast passage is,
indeed, the work of the Scandinavian race.
| Vltus Behring was Dane, born at Horsers,
in Jutland, 1850, and belonging to family
which, from the beginning of the fifteenth
century and up to our days, has been
famous for its eccentricity, wit, energy,
and productiveness one of his uncles had
twelve sons, and he called them. all
Peder. Another of his uncles settled
in Russia, and it was probably through
him that young Vitus entered tie Rus.
sian navy. In 1907 he was Lieutenant, in.
ITO Captain. Gar Peter noticed him,
liked him, and sent him on an expedition
to see whether America and Asia were con-
nected or not. February 5, 1925, Behring
started from st. Petersburg with huge
caravan of oxen, mules and dogs, sailors,
ship-builders and scholars, flour, salt-fish
and smoked mutton, and New Years Day,
l127, he reached the shore of the Sea of
Okhotsk, the caravan having on the way
through Siberia eaten its own shoes and
harness and other such palatable things.
small vessel was now built, on which the
company crossed the Sea of. Okhotsk, and
in the fall of 1927 the southernmost point
of kamtchatka was reached Here a larger
vessel was built, the Gabriel, and July 20,
l72S, Behring steered northward, following
the coast of Kamtchatka. August 10Th
he reached Cape Serdze Kamen, where
the Vega lay ice bound a winter
ago, and having satisfied himself
that from this point the northern coast of
Asia ran west, he returned. The great re-
suit of this expedition was the discovery
that Asia and America were not connected.
People, however, would not believe Behr-
ing. The German geographers protested,
and continued to teach that here was
solid bridge between Kamtchatka aud
Alaska. 1t was not until IT'S, when Coos
visited these regions, that Behring's dis
covery became generally accepted. Mean
while, a complete Government department
was organized in st. Petersburg under
Behring's superintendent for the in
vestigation of the northern coast
of Europe and Asia. Maluigin and
Skuratoff made the tour from Ar
kangelsk to the mouth of the Obi, 1877;
Ovzyn from the Obi to the Jenisei, 1889 :
Lapteff from the Jenisei to the Lena, I743
On the eastern coast of kamtchatka Eu-
ropean colony was settled, barracks and
magazines were erected, church was built,
dedicated to st. Peter and st. Paul, and
the new city was called Petropawlowski.
From this place Behring sailed out May
30, l74l, steering east, to find the coast of
America. He succeeded. July 9th he ac-
tually touched the American coast in lati-
tudc 30 north. But he was compelled to
return home Immediately He was sick
and his whole crew was sick. On the voy-
age home the vessel was wrecked on
small island, and there he died, December,

WH-scED AND BRIDELEss. = They
don't permit o drunken man 20 marry In
Odessa. On the contrary, they whip him
and give his bride to another. An illus-
tration of this occurred, when a couple
appeared in church and requested the
priees 20 marry them.
The priest, detecting an uosteadiness
OF gait la the bridegroom, refused and
called the young man ''boosing swine"
Indignant at the nntimely inebriato. the
fathes of the druukaTd seized him by the
collar. dragged him out of tho church
and labored him with o stout cudgel. In
the hope of making him sober enough
TO marry.
The brides father, however, took q
more practical view Of tie situation, and
declaring the engagement of. said that
any eligible candidate for his dauehter's
hand might wed her on the spot Without
ineurring any expense.
TITO aspirants came forward, and after
inspection by the bride, and Interrogation
- 20 their worldly condition, one was
politely dIsniissad, and the other took
the 'boozing swine's" place, aud was
made Q happy husband.

HE BEAUTY OF BALDNEss.-A great
change has taken place of late years with
regard TO the estimation in which bald-
ness is held. Fifty years ago it was
viewed as q serious infiction, misfor-
tune to be concealed by u wig or 6 velvet
skull cap. In such cases, no doubt, the
wig was Intended to deceive, and to give
q nJuvenile appearance 10 ita wearer. In
the majority of cases, however, the GOV.
ering was so plainly artificial that it was
clearly adopted not from o motive of
vanity, but simply to hide an unpleasant
object from the eyes OF the world. Of
late years, however, partly, IL would ap-
pear, from the habit Of wearing beard
having como into fashion, badness is far
more common than 1t used to be. It may
be that nature furnishes to; each human
being sufficiency ofwhat may be called
hair ointment TO support an average
quantity ofhair, and that when men al
low their boards 10 grow they do SO to
the detriment ofthe natural covering of
the scalp. Certain it is that n large
proportion of men with boards begin to
SIow 5aiid at an apnormaiiy early age.
Hitherto, however, they have, when
questioned, been willing to allow that
they regarded the lack OF hair as draw
back tc their personal appearances. They
will now be inclined to take higher
ground, for The British Medical Journal
tells US that in n lecture on badness,
Professor Fonrnier says: There ia moth
ing ridiculous or NAL. formed ahnnt ii.
and 1T confers upon the physiognomy an
expression of wisdom, experiences and
yenerability. It adapts itseIf marvellous.
ly to certain heads which would be de.
formed by wig, and is the severe beauty
represented in sculpture by inc classic
head OF Asschylns." This is consolation
indeed. Henceforth let man bow before
the severely beautiful; let shere be an
end of the use of ungnents aud oils, and
let depilatories take their place upon the
toilet table. Let the thoughtless and
giddy, keep the hair on their heads, but
let all who value the possession of the
severe AEscbylro get their heads as bald
rs q billiard ball without an instant's
delay.

Development or THE TEAg .ApE.-
In ls48 thirteen firms only imported
teas into the United States. Two years
after Young Hyson was the kind most
used, and 1t was sold at $3.50 per pound.
To-day the same quality can be bought
for 76 cents. From 1867 till 1860 Eng
land controlled the entire tea trade of tue
world. She now commands tho markets
Of Congou, Souchong and the Indian,
while the United States directs the eaie
for Japans, oolongs aud greens. The
enormous increase. in the production OF
Indian teas since their first Importation
forty years ago-estimated at 100000
pounds anuually-has enabled England
to maintain the greater control o:er the
entire crop of the world. If, however,
the rapid increase of tho American tea
trade continues, the United States, before
the commencement Of the next century,
will stand frat and foremost in It's impor.
tation.
