wards the true north. In Baltimore.
the needle pointed six degrees and six
minutes west in 1870, and in 1902 was
only thirty-nine minutes west. A
street mile long laid out by the COM
pass In that city in 1870 would have
had its north terminus 504 feet too far
west in 1902. 1t is related that a mag
netic party, while establishing me-
ridian line for the use of surveyors
at Chestertown, Md, the county seat
of Kent. found that the main street
ran nearly magnetically northwest and
southeast. Assuming that the street
had been laid out to run exactly SO,
1t appeared from old magnetic data
that the town must have been laid out
in the early part of the eighteenth
century. Upon looking up the records
the assumption was found to be COR
rect. The town had been laid out in
1902.
The historic Mason and Dixon's line
was fortunately run, in 1855, by the
stars and not by the needle. If in the
year 1900 it had been run so as to be
magnetically east and west, beginning
at the eastern end. and supposing that
the surveyors would not have encoun-
tered any areas of peculiar local dis
turbances, the boundary line would
have thrown Emmetsburg into Penn
sylvania, making a deviation of two
and a half miles. But were the lines
to be run under the same conditions
to-day it would drop nineteen miles
to the south, which would surrender
the richer portion of Allegheny and
Garrett counties to Pennsylvania, and
would cut Maryland's short western
boundary line in two. This illustrates
the inaccuracy of surveying by the un-
corrected needle.

One long bearded Hebrew, who the

fought their way to where he was in

had taken his $25. Instantly the cry
of "Goneff! Goneff!" was raised. It
had been raised before, when three
pickpockets had been caught. One of
the detectives caught sight of the old
mans hands. In one of them was the
money, tightly clutched. The old fell
low almost dropped it when he came
to and found he hadn't lost it at all.

in.
People were admitted into the bank
in squads of ten at a time. Payment
went on very slowly. The clerks said
it was because their force was so small.
Inside the paying teller's window was
a package of bills which had not yet
been undone. Every little while wo-
man left the line and pushing to the
window screamed for her money.
whereupon the cashier grabbed the big
package at his elbow and screamed in
return as he waved 1t at her: "Zehn
tousand dollar! Zehn tousand dollar!"
When the bank closed the package
was still undone. Just before the doors
were opened a carriage drove up and
from it three suit cases were taken
into the bank, containing, SO Jarmu-
lowsky's sons said afterward, $4,000. 1t
had been drawn from the Corn Ex-
change and the Mechanics and Trad
ers' Bank. A great deal Of the money
was in gold.

Servants and Employers.
From Success.

There are families that seem to be
able to make good servants out of the
most unpromising material. Their en-
ployes are always kind, considerate.
patient, cheerful, and willing. They do
not steal or take advantage OF a trust;
they are always kind to the children,
polite to guests, and agreeable to ev-
erybody.
Long experience as an employer has
taught the writer that the difference
is not so much in the employee as In
the employer. When everybody con-
dennis a man, charity says: do not
denounce this man; there is divinity
in him somewhere" A good employer
Is able to find and bring out the manly
or womanly qualities innate in every
normal being. He calls out the best In
those under him, simply because ne
is good himself. We find ourselves re-
fiected in others; the world gives us
back, just about what we give II II
we laugh, 1t will laugh back; II we
frown and criticise, are captious and
disagreeable, the world will show US
similar side. So our employees reflect
our treatment of them.
II Is astonishing how much prompt
ness, kindness. energy, tact. Skill
cheerfulness. and amiablity many EN-
ployers look for in return for a srnall
compensation. They expect for rev
paltry dollar n week thousand ool
lars worth of character, made UP VI
all that Is noblest and grandest ~
human nature. I'm those who have hau
little, II any. opportunity for eduo"ti""
and culture.

Similar to our throwing the brides
bouquet. Arabian fathers sometimes
present their daughter with a sword,
signifying freedom. For one blessed
moment she belongs to no man; then
she presents it to her husband, and
henceforth is in his power.
Not until the tenth century did An
glo-Saxon women have any right OF
choice. Betrothed as children, the
bridegroom's pledge was called a wed,
hence our word. Welsh laws permitted
only moderate wife beating. Three
blows were deemed sufficient, with a
stick no longer than an arm"
The Greek Church has the most elab-
crate ritual. Champagne is served In
the Cars land and guests are given
souvenir initial boxes of cake. In
Brazil drinking brandy together may
constitute a marriage; in Japan, the
same with wine. To join hands, 10
sit together, are all old customs; also
to be smeared with blood. or for the
woman to tie a, rope of grass around
the mans waist.
The Australian carries fire to mans
tent; the Croatian bridegroom boxes
the brides ears, while in Hungary even
at the present time the bridegroom
gives his wife a kick to indicate her
subsection.
The Jewish bridegroom crusnes lne
wineglass to atoms with his foot 10
obliterate the past. In China the maid
steps over a fire at the threshold,
while the gypsy "hops the broomstick.
All these suoerstitions have come
to US in a modified form, but the love
of tradition and tendency toward i'm,
itation makes us slow to part with
them.
Endless Jests have been made upon
the word obey and women largely
repudiate 1t, yet the great orthodox
churches still retain It. In Denmark
they have legally abolished the word.
The entire conception of the functions
of women in social and domestic life
has so altered and broadened that It
seems singular that so many of the
old marriage customs are still preserved
customs which. although amusing
when traced to their source. are really
typical of barbaric times and coun-
ties.

Present-Dny Marriage Customs Are
rs Old as the Hills.
From the Chicago Chronicle.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
To the pagan peoples of ancient
times the people of civilized nations
owe. nearly all the customs relative to
marriage that prevail in the present
day. The golden circlet that is placed
upon the finger of the bride at the
conclusion of the marriage ceremony
is relic Of the fetter by which the
bride was bound. while the jocose
slipper is a remnant of the missiles
hurled by the angry parent. The
orange blossoms came in a more civil
lied age, though they are not Chris
tian, and symbolized a large family.
The veil, as still in modern Oriental
countries, typifies exclusive possession
by one man. Even the honeymoon is
a symbol of the interval which elapsed
before the victor brought his bride
from hiding and sought peace with her
wrathful kinsmen. In Wales n we'd
ding is very tame unless the BRIDE
groom captures the bride after n thrill
ing pseudo sklrmish. The relatives
offer mock resistance, and much scuf-
fling and horseplay ensue.
At the church the bride is snatched
by her relatives and the bridegroom 8
party pursue on horseback. Al last
she Is tossed back. and whoever re-
ceives her Will wed within the year.
