DIVORCE IN BURMAH.
An Original and Exhaustive Method 81 I
Settling Family Tro ubles.

SebGlUS
In Burmah, as in civilized Europe,
suspicion often disturls the ffamiily circle,
but instead Of filing lawyers pockets
and giving society papers highly spiced
paragraphs the following eHectual mode
OF divorce procedure is adopted: The
family q relatives on both sides are called
Uneven distant cousins living a long
way off-alld many are the long jo11rneys
made IN. joltillg bullock carts, and many
the animated discussions by the cigar
putting circle Of relatives squatted cere-
q: nErlion1ously on the bamboo matted floors.

tanned thusand very difficult it is. to
smooth down the quarrels, as a rule, for

ers or patriaTchs Of the village or dis
trlct are called in, and after the circum-
stances are e1pl lined arbitrator are APP

as follows: Two candles-wax if posi-
bic, but generally rushlights are select
ed Of equal length and thickness, and be-
ing simultaneously lighted are placed on
the table if the establishment boasts Of

This is done with the greatest gravity,
care being taken that neither party has
any advantage over the other in the,
shape Of drafts through the doors and
crannies, and that all present are seated
at sufficient distance to prevent their
breathing from affecting the flame. The
gradual burning down Of the flames is
then watched with breathless and sol
emn silence, which eliminates as one or
the other Of these slowly burns down and
splutters out its life in the waters of the
basin in which it is fixed.

hardly nine out of ten of them are learning

from his pen now before the writer, the
spelling would disgrace chilli of Ten.
Evidently the proof reader was in haste, for
tho b,unders are left uncorrected. The
article contains less than fifty lines, yet
nine errors 10 orlhosraphy find places in it.

this author laugh at his failing, especially
when he subseribes himself as he has been
known TO do, in haste, "Yours cincers'y.'

AYERS, but hard study will fix yowels and
