Why Every Body Smiled.

According to the Boston Transcript,
story that goes back to the meetin'
house in Wrentham is one of worthy
man named Habbakuk P, a resi-
dent of the town, and a faithful at
tendant upon worship, who had been
blessed with four wives, one after
another. Habbakuk was rigidly or.
thodox, as his name seems to demand,
and was always in his pew on the
Sabbath. He sat there in his con-
spicuous pew, with No. by his side,
and on the first Sunday morning after
their marriage. 1t was balmy June
day, and the zephyrs from the open
window toyed playfully with the brides
white satin bonnet ribbons and the
groom's silken locks. There was a
stranger in the pulpit who had ex-
changed for the day with the venera-
BILE Mr.. F., the pastor of the church.
After reading a few Scripture passages
the stranger proceeded to read a
notice which he had found in the Bible,
and which was as follows
"Mr. Habbakuk p desires the
prayers of the congregation that
the death of his wife may be sanctified
to him for his spiritual good"
Then, when the congregation was
between stupefaction and explosion,
the clergyman went on with the SER
vices at rapid rate. He was at a
loss to know why the congregation
seemed to be throughout the remain
der of the services on the point of
laughter, but at dinner Mrs. F., the
pastors wife, explained to him that
Habbakuk P sat three rows from
the front in the broad aisle with his
brand new wife, and he had read an
old notice that Mr.. F. had probably
been using for book mark ever since
the death of No. 3.

lie, and vowed that he must die to-

lie, and vowed that he must die to
morrow.
So the night wore away. The
runs grew shorter; occasionally al
animal began to eat. The rain was
over, though the clouds still hung
heavy. The lightning had ceased
and the riders sat still and notion
less, unable to see over the heads OF
the horses they rode. Water stood
everywhere and the cattle began
grazing in all directions. The fore
man gave orders to ride away, as
our presence would only serve to stir
up and scatter the herd.
Some unsaddled, rolled up in their
wet blankets and slept. Others lit
pipes and cigarettes and began
watching for signs of the coming
morning.
After hot breakfast, during
which all told their experiences of
the night, and old Joe swore for the
hundredth time that this was his
last trip on the trail, beds were dried,
fresh horses were caught, the herd
was Tailed and found correct, and
once more we headed for Ogalalla.

A Curious Marriage Custom.

A curious old custom still exists in
many provinces in Holland. If a
young man is in love with a girl, and
wishes to ask her hand in marriage, he
goes about in the following manner.
He buys small sweetcake, and,
wrapping it up in soft paper, proceeds
to the house of his inamorata upon
his arrival he is ushered into the
midst of the family circle; without a
word he walks up to the young lady
he wishes to make his wife, and lays
the cake on the table before her.
The rest of the family effect not to
notice anything unusual, and contin.
ue their work or reading; the young
man turns and talks to the father OF
mother on some very ordinary subject,
keeping his eyes eagerly fixed on the
girls face while he is conversing.
If she accepts the offer, she takes up
the cake and eats it.
Sometimes, though dutch, she is
coquettish, and tortures the young
man by turning it over and playing
with it before she decides to bite, and
then enraptures him by eating it to
the last crumb. If, on the other hand,
she wishes to have nothiug more to do
with her admirer, she quickly rewraps
the cake in its covering, and puts it
back on the table.
In this case the young man takes
up the cake, satisfied with his refusal,
and with "Vaaryoal byxamen I"
leaves the house. The matter is then
kept profound secret by the men,
bers of both families, and the outer
world never hears of it. If, OH the
other hand, the affair progresses favor
able, and the suitor is accepted, the
father takes. him to one side to ask
about his business prospects, and if
he can afford to take his wife for a
weddingjourney up the Rhine, the
ideal wedding-trip Of al Dutchmen.
After the young couple become en-.
gagged, unlike most continental nations,
they have the same freedom as those
in England under .iu,ilar circum.
stances, and they aro at liberty to
break off the eDgsps nept for good rea-
son.
