or An UNCERTAIN AGE.
A Curious Custom which Prevails In
Russia,

There is a curious custom in some
parts Of Russia. When the eldest daugh-
ter in a family Of position is completing
her sixteenth year a banquet ball is
given in her honor. The men guests
drink champagne out of this young girls
white satin slippers.
This ceremony being performed, the
debutante may go 10 any balls or amuse-
ments. or marry as soon as the oppor-
tunity presents Itself For all the Rus
sian mothers the highest point OF ambi-
tion has always been TO marry their
daughters at sixteen. They are quite
proud II they succeed in finding a suita-
BILE match, and never lose much time in
carrying out their plans.
With few exceptions, the Russian wo-
men have n short youth. Though their
country is not so warm as Spain, they
change in advancing years quite as much
TO their disadvantage as Spanish women
do. This is attributable partly to their
being shut up for the winter in houses
heated not entirely on sanitary principles.
Hence early marriages.

twenty-four. IL Is said Of her. "She is
not young; she has eaten many an Eas-
ter cake" The Russian men are most

HAND-sHARING Styles.
