CURIOUS CUlLINGS.

The Digger Indians of California prefer
insects to any other kind of animal food.
A French woman's baby was so small
that she used her shoe for its cradle.
In computing mans age Cinnamon al
ways reckon two years back from the day
when he celebrated his first birthday, or,
in other words, as though he were year
old at the time of his birth.
Idaho has river whose source is mys-
terry. It flows out of lake in an immense
volume and at one point is 800 feet Deep
Where all the water comes from is some
thing no one can tell.
The Kimberly Kaffirs are said to smoke
cigars with the lighted ends in their
mouths. They light cigar in the ordina-
ry manner, tuck the tongue in the cheek
and putting the lighted end in the mouth
gradually consume the whole. They say
that their method is warm and comforting
and generally preferable to the way of the
foreigner.
A native bride in Hindostan is loaded
down with all the jewelry she can get.
She has a girdle at the waist numerous
rings, anklets, bracelets and bells, and dec
orations for the hair. Although she las
never seen her intended husband, she goes
and sits beside him on the day of the cere-
mony. The priest takes corner of the
BRIDES veil and ties it to the groom's shawl,
and they are married.
