The consumption OF tobacco of all
kinds in France, according to recently
compiled statistics, is nearly one hun.
drcd and twenty-five million pounds
per year. An analysis of the figures
shows that the people of northern
France use nearly four times rs much
per capita as those in the southern
provinces. Almost every other country
OF Europe, however, consumes more
smoking tobacco in proportion to its
population than does France.
This is especially the ease with Ger
many. In many small German towns
smoking in the streets is forbidden.
Less than fifty years ago if n man
on the streets of Berlin with
a cigar in his mouth he would be liable
to arrest. The same provision existed
until 1913 ut Vienna, though the law
was not observed by the populace. The
town of Broeck, in Holland, which Is
said to be the cleancst city in the
world, has long forbidden the people
within its walls to smoke after sunset
in the streets unless with n covered
pipe, "in order that the cindcrs ina
not be blown out" Smoking with an
uncovered pipe in German or Austrian
forests is nj otfcnSc That is vigorously
punished. and rs n result of this rcgu-
lation forest fires are rare in those
countries.

The Desperate Fight of a Hunter with q
Dying buck.
The literature Of hunting is full OF
anecdotes winch show the danger of n
too hasty assumption that II wounded
animal is dead or past the power Of de.
Tending himself. \ new illustration Is
furnished by Mr.. Roosevelt in his
Ranch Life and the Hunting Trail"
Not only will 4 big, bluck-tail buck
beat OFF n dog or n wolf coming ut him,
in front, but he is an awkward foe for
n man. One OF them nearly killed u
cowboy in my employ.
The buck, mortally wounded, had
fallen to the shot, and the man rushed
up to kill him! Then the buck revived
for n moment, struck down the man,
and ~cndcavored 10 gore him, but could
not, because of the dcspairinp grin
with which the man held on TO his
horns.
Nevertheless, the man, bruised and
cut by the sharp hoofs, was fast bccom,
ing too weak TO keep his hold, when in
the struggle the two came to the edge
OF n washOutand fell into il some twelve
or fifteen feet. This separated them.
The dying buck was too weak to renew
the attack, and the man crawlcd Off,
but it was months before he got over
the effects Of the encounter.

MARRIAGE M coREA.

Some Peculiar FEATURE of the MAtri-
moniAl Ceremony.
Corean girls, inter enjoying freedom
until they are eight years old, are con-
signed to the women's quarters, where
they live in seclusion till they are mar
ried, at sixteen or seventeen years.
After marriage, says Popular Sci
ence Monthly, the woman Is allowed
to see no man but her husband. The
boys, on the other hand, are taught
that it is undignifed for them to enter
the women's part Of the house. They
never see their brides till the wedding
day, all having been arranged for
them, often when both bride and
groom are infants. The bride and
bridegroom invite their most intimate
friends 70 assist them in dressing their
hair in the BETTING their new
estate. Then the bridegroom mounts
n white pony, which is led by two
servants, while two others on either
side support the rider in his saddle.
Thus he proceeds to the brides house,
in which the bride and her relatives
are awaiting their arrival. A goose
(the Corcan symbol Of fidelity, which
the bridegroom brings with him, is
then produced. The bride (who has to
cover her face with her long ~sleeves)
and the bridegroom then bow to each
other until their heads almost touch
the ground. This they do three or
four times, and are then man aad wife.
A loving cup is passed around, and
then the bride is taken off to the
women's apartments of her husbands
home, where she is looked after by her
mother and mother-in-law, while the
groom cntertains his friends. The
husband must maintain his wife prop
erly md treat her with respect. Mar
rage is the great event in n Corcan's
life, for he then nttains mans estate.
Before marriage, no matter how old he
may be, he is treated us a boy, and has
to maintain a d~efcrential attitude
toward the married men, even though
they be only half his age
