Every nice young lady will be inter-
ested in reading the following, taken
from the Bridgewater Tribune: "The
first question a man asks when he sees
a girl flirting is whether she is re-
spectacle or not; it raises a doubt at
once. This being the case, no modest
girl can afford to indulge in the pass
time. When the down is brushed from
peach its beauty is so marred that it
can never be restored, and when a
young girl throws lightly aside that
sweet and modest reserve so becoming
to be maiden, one which so elevates
her and enables her to command the
respect of all, she loses her great charm
and becomes rather cheap and common
to use no rash terms. Flirting may
seem to the giddy, thoughtless girl
wonderfully amusing, and she may
get the idea that she is fascinating,
but it is most degrading thing aud
should be frowned upon by every
young lady who has an anbition to
become worthy and charming young
woman"

The readers of this paper will
be pleased to learn that there is
at least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in
all it's stages, and that IS Ca
tarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Ca
tarrh, being a constitutional dis
ease, requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting
directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature IN
doing it's work. The proprietors

Silent BrideX

In Korea during the whole of the
marriage day the bride must be as mute
as statue. If she says word, or even
makes sign, she becomes an object Of
ridicule, and her silence must remain
unbroken, even in her own room, though
her husband should attempt to break it
by taunts. jeers or coaxing, for the
female servants are all on the watch for
such breach of etiquette as speech.
hanging about the doors and chinks to
catch up and repeat even single utter
ance, which would cause her to lose
caste forever in her circle.
This custom of silence is observed
with the greatest rigidity among the
higher classes. 1t may be a week or sew
eral months before the husband knows
the sound of his wife's voice, and even
after that for q length of time she only
opens her mouth for necessary speech.
With the father-in-law the custom of
silence is still more rigid, and the
daughter-in-lawo often passes years with
out raising her eyes to his or addressing
a word TO him. In Bulgaria months
silence is imposed. on brides unless
specially addressed by the husband.

Reputation.

years. The great jurist as little lad

CHANNEL read for the law. and the
two school friends scarcely met again
until. years afterward. Mr.. CHANNEL
held brief in certain case at Maid

Consultation with the solicitors
showed a flaw in the pleadings drawn
by them. 1t was of a sort which in
those days would prove fatal to the
case. The solicitors could only hope
that it would not be discovered.
