Very Peculiar Wedding Rings.

Lieut.. ron Francois. the African ex~
plorcr. has recently described a strange
custom among the Bayanzi. who live for
many miles along the Upper Congo. The
custom would seem to make life good
deal Of {: burden to their married women.
Prass rods. which are the favorite cur
rency in the country, are welded into
great rings around the necks of the
wives Many of these rings worn by
the women, whose husbands are we'll to
do weigh as much as thirty pounds, and
this burden must be carried around by
the poor women as long as they live.
Frequently. says Lieut.. von Fran
co.'s, zone sees poor woman whose neck
il raw and sore under the heavy weight,
and in places the skin is rubbed off by
the ring. This Is u sure sign that the
ring has been recently welded around
her neck, for after time the skin be-
cones calloused, and then the strange
ornament produces no abrasion. But
the weight is an Inconvenience; they
never get used to it, and it is perpetual
tax upon their energies. In every crowd
Of women may be seen number who are
supporting the ring with their hands,
and thus for time relieving their weary
shoulders Of the heavy burden. It may
be said that with every movement of
their bodies the rings give them discom-
fort.
"a ring is never put around a wo-
nan 8 neck until she is believed to have
attained her full physical development.
Once or. it is no easy matter to getst off.
Tie natives have no such thing as a file,
and, though they can hammer lot OF
brass roas into one. it is very difficult
for them TO cut the thick mass of metal
in two. Women who increase largely
in flesh after the rings have been fas-
tened on their necks are in danger OF
strarGlins TO death. and instances Of this
SORT have been known to occur.
"Yet these wcmen regard the cum
brous ornament with pride. imagine that
it enhances thsir importance and beauty,
and wear the burden with light hearts.
Grass is the money of the country. and
by putting it around their wives' necks
the men are pretty certain that it won t
be stolen CT foolishly expended. But it
is an old and cruel sort of 8 savings

Economical Locomotive Engineers.

''x1Tc,1 have seen the cotton waste with
which engineers rub up their engines9
We'll. that isn't as valuable as gold dust,
but every engineer is as careful of it as II
it were. lie has q bag in his cab to keep
it in, and when he has used it he puts it
back in the bag with as much pains as
an old lady would use with her quilt
pieces. Quite the natural thing for him
to do. you say; hut there's where you
are wrong. Unless men are trained to
be careful about these things the natural
way seems to be to throw away or other
wlse lose more than they save. Now.
suppose every engineer ON the road saves
5 cents day by an economical use of oil
and waste, that amounts 10 q pretty
penny when you reckon on the thou
sands Of engines run by the road. Xou
see how system and discipline pay!
