Marriage in ksindostan

Hindoo girls are taught to think of
marriage almost as soon as they can
talk; indeed, they are often contracted
in marriage at six years of age and go
to live with their husbands at twelve
or thirteen. Before this, at the age of
five, they are taught to propitiate the
gods in order to secure a good husband,
and their little minds are distracted by
the idea of what medel husband
ought to be. The orthodox conception
is husband like the god silva, who
was holy, austere and devoted to one
wife, the goddess Doorga Good little
girls revolt at the idea of a husband
marrying a second wife while the first
is alive, and will consequently confess
their anxiety to marry faithful spouse
like silva; and they learn from their
elders to utter the most vindictive
curses against rival wife. But for all
that, Krishna is the idol of Hindoo
women, and he was anything but faith
full to one wife. He not only kicked
over milk pans and ran away with the |
clothes of the milk maids when they |
went te battle, but he danced and |
t1irted with other mems wives, eloped |
with royal damsels, and married an
infinite number of beautiful women.

A Question Of Interest to Postmasters
Sherins and Prisoners Settled.
The Postmaster at Lewiston, Fulton
county, Illinois, wrote letter to the
Postmaster General, asking for instruc-
tons in reference to the delivery OF
letters to Thomas Ainsbury, committed
to Jail for assault with intent to commit
I murder. The Sheriff demanded that
Ainsbury's letters be delivered to him,
and Ainsbury wrote a letter to the
Postmaster, demanding that his mail be
delivered to no one that did not bring a
written order from him 0he prisoner.)
The decision Of the Postmaster General
is as follows:
Letters addressed to convicts serv-
ing term of imprisonment should be
delivered to the warden or other officer
in charge of the prisoners. Letters adj
dressed to persons imprisoned to await
trial on an Indictment, or pending in
dictment, should be delivered according
to the order of the person addressed, at
any time before conviction and SEN
tence. If person is released Or bail
no question would arise, as the law pre-
sumes every person innocent until con-
victed by a jury, and inability to give |
bail ought not to deprive a man of the |
correspondence addressed to him
through the mails Until sentence,
therefore, letters must be subject to the
order of the person imprisoned, unless
upon judicial proceedings authorizing
seiz3re of the letters in accordance with
he decision Of the Supreme Court of
he United States"

The Art of Talking.

If we notice closely we shall find that
the people that are most popular in So
cial life are those who understand not
only how to talk themselves, but how to
make others talk. This is very val
liable gift. To be able SO to direct con-
versation as not to display your own
knowledge, but to draw out the opinions
and quicken the thoughts of those with
whom you taIk-this is an accomplish
ment indeed. 1t makes each contribu-
tor to the enjoyment of all, and it leaves
with each Il pleasant sense Of having
said something which others were glad
to hear. This is very different from
the consciousness of having been bored
or snubbed-or both, which lesser folks
often carry away from the presence of
fluent and tyrannical talker. There is
good deal of this sort of conversational
missionary work waiting to be done,
and the time which we spend in chat
tering about the weather might be very
profitably devoted to it. 1t should be
borne in mind that there is scarcely any
one of average intelligence who cannot,
if he is drawn out, talk Interestingly
and instructively about at least one
thing, the thing with which he is prac-
tically the most familiar, or which is !
with his regular labor. Is
your companion on the car or on the
street, a machinist, manufacturer, an
artist, builder-lead the conversation
around to the one subject, if there are
10 others, in which he is sure to be in
crested. The result will be that you
will please him, and will gain fresh
yourself Whoever talks
much thus with specialists upon their
hosen department of labor or thought,
viii get together fund of valuable
not to be learned from the

A Lake 1900 Feet Deep.

| Several of our citizens returned last
week from the Great Sunken Lake
situated in the Cascade Mountains,
ABOUT seventy-fve miles northwest from
Jacksonville. This lake rivals the IA
nous valley of Sinbad the Sailer. 1t is
thought to average 1900 feet down to
water all around. The depth of the
water is unknown and its surface is
smooth and unruffled, as il is SO far be-
low the surface of the mountains that
air currents do not affect it,. Its length
is estimated at twelve or fifteen miles
and its width ten or twelve. There is
mountain in the center having trees
upon it. 1t lies still and silent and mys-
ferrous in the bosom of the everlasting
hills, like a huge we'll scooped out by
the hands of the giant genii of the
mountains in the unknown ages gone
by, and around it the primeval forests
watch and ward are keeping. The
visiting party fired rifle into the water
several times at an angle Of forty-five
degrees and noted several seconds
of time from the report of the
gun until the ball struck the water.
Such seems incredible, but it is vouched |
for by our most reliable citizens. The |
AXE is certainly most remarkable cur
