Thousands Welded at Once.

The largest and most remarkable
wedding since the world began took
place at Susa, says the Chicago
Chronicle. When the great Alexander
had conquered Persia, wishing to
unite victors and vanquished by the
strongest possible tics, he decreed
wedding festival. Alexander himself
was to marry Stutira, tho daughter of
Darius; 100 of his chief officers were
to be united to the ladies' from the
noblest Persian and Medean families,
and 10. 600 of his Greek soldiers were
to marry 10. 600 Asiatic women-20 202
people married at once. 1t is difficult
to see how they managed to get up a
feast for so many, but they did, and
for a vast multitude of guests besides,
They had the most splendid arrange
ments. On plain near the city vast
pavilion was erected on pillars 60 feet
high. 1t was hung and spread with the
richest tissues, while the gold and
precious stones which ornamented it
would have made your eyes blink.
Tables were spread outside for the
multitude, a separate seat was assigned
each pair and all were arranged in
semicircles on either hand of the royal
throne. Each bridegroom had rec eivetl
golden vessel for his libation, and
when the last of these had been an
nounced by trumpets to the multitude
without, the brides entered the ban
quet hall and took their places. Oh
course, it must not be supposed that
each bridegroom stood up separately
q I'd vowed, with this ring now thee
wcd," and 80 Oh. No, the ceremony
was very simple. Tho king gave his
hand to Statira and kissed her as his
wife and the other bridegrooms fol
lowed his example.

The following amusing little scene
occurred in AN opthalmic hospital in
Manchester.
An old man applied one day for some
spectacles. AS he complained that his
eyesight was very bad-indeed. he could
hardly see at ALL
Accordingly, he had the usual large
frame put on and strong magnifying
glasses put into it, and a card with
very large print held a little distance
from him. Then the surgeon asked:
"Can you read that, my mani"
mo, sir" said the old man, u
CAN'T
The surgeon, after putting in stronger
glasses and holding the card nearer,
said
"Well, can you read that now"
Still the old man replied
"No, sir; l can't read a word OF it. >
The surgeon then put in the strong
| est glasses and held the card close tt
| the old mans face, saying: "Well, cal
yoa read that?"
"No, SIR" replied the old mar
sadly, shaking his head; "you sec
sir, l never learned to read An

Household Hints.

To determine the age of eggs, says
the Chicago Record, dissolve a quarter
Of pound of salt into quart of
cold water and drop in the eggs one at
a time. III day old, an egg will
settle to the bottom; il three days old,
ii will float; il moro than two days
old, ii will rise above the water IN
proportTon to it's age. To ascertain the
quality of eggs make cone of stiff
white paper, place the egg in the large
end Of the cone and look through the
small end toward the sun. III the con-
tents look clear, even though the shell
is discoored, the egg il good; If spot
ted, it is not. About per cent of a
fresh egg is formed of water. and this
begins TO evaporate soon after the egg
is laid. Air enters. introducing bac-
terra, which causes the egg TO decom-
pose. To prevent this place new-laid
eggs in wire basket and immense for
five seconds in boiling water. This
causes a thin coating of coagulated
albumen to form next the shell. The
pores of the shell can then be closed by
dipping in linseed oil. Such an egg
will keep almost indefinitely. The whites
of eggs will froth more rapidly ii cold.

rreper Age to Marry.

Women marry later in life than they
used to; maidens who have passed
their Both year may now claim that
they represent the most perfect and
advanced type of maidenhood, and
look down upon girls who marry
before % as very much more akin tot
sayages, for it is a we'll known fact
that the ago of marriage advances with
civilization. Everywhere the more ma
ture woman is to the fore. The young and
inexperienced bud has ceased to be
the reigning queen OF the hour. She
has been forced to yield her place to
the maturer woman, the woman OF cul-
tivated mind and manners of broader
experience and wider knowledge. The
tastes of men in this regard seem to
have undergone complete revolution
and instead of fiuttering about the
inexperienced girl, talking pretty noth-
ings, they are matching their expert
ences, broadening their horizon, sharp
ening their wits in clever conversation
with some brilliant and beautiful
woman. And as the literature always
reflects the times. the girl of 16 as
adored by Shakespeare, Byron. Moliere,
Voltaire and Scott, is no more to be
found. Formerly, the woman between
30 and 40 years of age was lost for
passion, for romance, for the drama ;
now she rules alone. Madame Emile
de Girardin, in defending Balzac,
says: lis it Balzac's fault that the
age of 30 to-day is the age of love?
BaIzac is compelled to depict passion
