silent Brides.

In Korea during the whole of the
marriage day the bride must be as mute
as statue. If she says a 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 a 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 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-law often passes years with
out raising her eyes to his or addressing
a word to him. In Bulgaria month :
silence is imposed on brides unless
specially addressed by the husband.

There are brought against him two
charges of attempt 10 murder and sevsH
charges OF criminal libel Ii is charged
that his intended victims were Judge
Cornish of the Lewiston Municipal
Court, and Ex.City Marshal Herbert
Teel. Pierce has IA bad record in the
courts extending over a period of sew
eral years. The crimes with which he
is now charged arise out of his arrest
for assault and battery in November,
1885,. Everybody concerned IN that
case seems 10 have been made a mark.

The UngainIy Russian Sailor.

A real sailorman has fingers bent up
like fshfooks from the lifelong habit of
gripping things The Russian sailor
carries his hands like soldier and can
not possibly be handy" A sailor S
gait ashore has slight roll. This arises
from the need at sea of Keeping up the
windward side of rolling ship And
the rolling gait marks one of a sailor E
finest qualities-balance Unless the
body balances and poises to meet every
motion of a ship the result is seasick-
ness.
Now, the Russian bluejacket does not
roll in his gait ashore, but marches.
Neither has he any sense of balancing
at sea and seasickness in the Russian
feet Is source of actual weakness and
danger. The Black sea squadron can
only put to sea in the three calmest
months of the summer, and the 80 called
maneuvers take place ashore on the
Kenai peninsula, consisting mainly Of
battalion drill.
One more trait of the real sailor is his
self reliance. which makes him tit for
facing emergencies single handed. But
the Russian bluejacket has none of this.
He is not a machine in himself but
only little bit of machine which
cannot work without the other bits. He
IS huge in stature-a giant compared
with our men-but in his winter over
coat it is impossible to distinguish him
from a soldier. Unhandy, seasick and
reliant only in drill discipline, he is MT
terly unfit for active service. London

cured for his coming spouse The rajah

Mr.. Kipling to assist him in selecting
the gems to be included in the marriage
gifts They were of extraordinary size
and value, such gems as are seldom
seen except in the east, and to the artist
the selection was a pleasures Finally

Bridget Rafferty, had served the best
years of her life as a cook, and now that
she was "wearin ava and an opera
ton became necessary she haughtily
declined to go to a ward, but took one
of the best rooms in the hospital. The
operation was successful, but the patient
was allowed very little food. During
her convalescence she made frequent
use of the electric bell at her bed. The
nurse would fly to her, to be greeted
with some trifiing question or the re-
mark, II only wanted to know if you
were there.
AS such frequent use of her bell sug
gested to the matron on that floor thai
the nurse was neglecting her patient,
the nurse demonstrated, and received
the following unique explanation:
well, you see, miss, here | am pay

miss, I'm not eating anything So
