pecuIiarities Of the Ainus.

Inasmuch as there are no family
names, no village, tribal, or national
rights 10 be respected, there is nothing
approximating 10 father right OF
mother right. Or perhaps ii would be
more exact 10 say that, inasmuch as
women are only recognized as servants
throughout their whole lives, and as
mothers as oon as they have reached
the proper age. the personality Of the
whole family is sunk in that of the
husband and father while he lives.
When he dies he is at once and ALSO
lutely forgotten, and each surviving
member OF his family pursues an en-.
tirely separate course, in no way con-
corning himself about the others. II
q man dies and leaves a family of in
FAINT children, the care Of them de-
wolves upon the mother until the
Oldest SON reaches the age of about IS;
then ho becomes the head Of the
family. Female inheritance is utterly
unknown, as would be expected in a
society wherein women have no rights
at all. II "a man is SO unfortunate as
TO leave no true heir, or 80 careless as
not to have adapted one, his property
goes 20 his iiext younger brother, or
bis nearest male relative, il he have no
brothers mther by birth or adoption

Memory's Queer

| heard u story the other day about
a prominent church member who had
been called on to lead a prayer meet
ing. He selected the subject of some
preliminary remarks, read an appro-
pirate chapter from the Bible, and
started upon his discourse. For five
minutes he spoke smoothly, fiuently
and aptly, and then, all Of a sudden,
by some queer caper OF the mind, he
forgot not only the thread of his dis
course, but the subject itself. He
paused TO collect his thoughts, but
they would not be collected. Then he
beckoned TO a worthy brother in the
front pew. When the brother came
the speaker whispered this inquiry in
his ear:
do you remember what / have
been talking aboutf"
Hey" exclaimed the worthy
brother. He evidently thought the
speaker was accusing him of a lack OF
attention.
"Do you know the subject ] was
speaking ont"
'No, | do not" said the worthy
brother, scratching his head IN a per
picked way.
Here was a pickle, sure enough.
Then the leader of the meeting calico
another member up and made the
same inquiries. But this member wa
as ignorant Of the matter as the first
one, and the speaker, in desperation,
renewed his remarks, touching on an
entirely different line Of thought, as
he aftcrward remembered. His audi
snce never knew the difference, as he
took pains to inquire.-Atlanta Con

The statement in yesterdays ISTELtI-
oExcER to the effect that there will be
no eleyatorin the addition to the Custom
House, and that there Is room for a
sliding pole in its stead, created much
comment in the city, Adverse criticism
was INDUCED in on all sides, and tue
opinion was freely expressed that the
whole scheme from hTst 10 last Is simply
an effort 10 spend the appropriation
which Congress has made, That the
addition will be Of no value was
the general belief, and that il
ruins the appearance Of the building
was universally conceded. A careful
examination Of the part Of the stairs now
in place shows q space OF three feet six
inches by four feet three inches for the
sliding pole, One gentleman iptimated
that an elevator might be squeezed into
the space, but when the Thickness Of
the elevator cage walls and the slides,
etc., is taken from this small space,
there would not be room ioE
more than one man standing
erect, An old gentleman OF Irish
extraction suggested that windRss
be erected on top, and the people eleYat'

proposed to put passengers in cans

to athlrd bystander that they might be

there would BE- no elevator, but anyone
