Marriage fetes in Finland, as in Nor.
way, are often prolonged for several days,
even among folk of humble rank. One pc
culiarity, which may excite more surprise
than approval among eligible suitors in
our own country is that the Finnish lover
never himself pops the question to tho
girl Of his choice. The momentous pro-
posal is made through third person,
called the "talman, to whom tho happy
couple give present when his delicate
mediation proves successful and ends In a
wedding. Not uncommonly their gift to
the talman takes the unromantic form OF
shirt.
In like manner the clergyman who pre-
sides over the nuptial service receives q
simple and inexpensive present, often a
handkerchief and pair Of warm hair
gloves. A similar gift Is bestowed upon
the officiating priest at funerals. Upon
these mournful occasions the service Is ex-
ceedingly simple-more SO than would sat,
isfy the views Of British undertakers-
but the burial Is, as rule, followed by
large hospitality on the part Of the bereaved
family. WESTMINSTER Review.

A Modern Diogenes.

A man had quarrel with his wife
which led to breach Of tho peace. The
woman took her revenge by refusing to
speak to him for several days. Tho hus-
band, who was good natured enough when
not excited, could not bear this protracted
silence any longer and thought Of way
to break the spell. One afternoon he light
cd candle, stuck 1t in lantern, and
while his wife was sitting In tho room
busy sewing ho began to look under the
table, the chairs, etc, as though he had
lost something. At this the wife could
not help laughing, and shc asked him:
What Il you looking for?"
Deligl d at having gained his point,
ho checriully replied:
II was looking for your tongue. -

Married for salad and Found It Peppered
A learned English judge asked a
woman 60 marry him because she,
knowing his weakness, had mixed a
salad so artistically that he declared
he could not live without eating an
other. The judge soon repented his
folly. The lady had a foolish nature
and a temper which so tormented her
husband that he would prolong the
sessions of his court far into the night.
'Gentlemen," he was accustomed to
say, when counsel or jury murmured
at the lateness of the hour, "as we
must be somewhere, we can not be
better anywhere than we are here"
