The Munka Bride.

Here is a picturesque incident in the
Munka wedding ceremony in India:
The bride goes to a stream or well neal
by with her pitcher and, having filled ii.
raises it aloft on her head, steadying 1t
with her hand. The bridegroom comes
behind, as she turns homeward. and,
resting his hand on her shoulder, shoots
an arrow along the path in front Of her
through the loophole formed by her up
lifted arm. The bride then walks on
to where the arrow lies and picks it up
with her foot, still balancing the pitcher
on her head. Transferring it grace
fully to her hand, she restores it TO the
bridegroom, thus showing that she can
perform her domestic duties well, with
hand and foot at his service. he in
turn, by shooting the arrow In front OF
her, has shown his ability TO protect
her and clear her path of any danger
that may beset il.

The Moon and Rain.

when you see the new moon hangin'
straight up and down, lookin' sort of
sour like, you're not goin' to have rain
for at least two-thirds of the month";
said an old observer. When she comes
up lookin' like she wouldn't spill, then
its goin' to be good weather for two
thirds of the month.
You can bank on that, boy. I've
been watchin' the moon for weather
more'n thirty years on land and sea.
and the dip tells the story better than
any weather prophet that ever called
turns on the weather from headquar-
ters down in Washington.
Further than gettin' a cue on the
weather" he continued, you can tell
by the color of the moon whether it's
goin' to be Il warm or cold rain.
IF the wei moon looks red it's goin'
to be q warm rain. If ii looks bright
and silvery like it's goin' TO be a chilly
rain.

call her, come up over Jersey for Il
number of years, and l haven't found
her sign to fail yet."-Philadelphia In

Cost of False Noses.

People sometimes lose their noses by
disease or by accidents, and some have
lost them in war. For noseless persons
the most appropriate organs are said
to be made OF wax, and the best ones
cost about $175, though a really good
one can be got for SIS. A nose made
OF papier mache may be bought for So.
Noses made of this material are enam
eled and are deceptive, and for a poor
man they are said to answer all the
purposes that are required. Waxen and
paper noses are, in case of disease.
preferable to those made by the plant
ing of flesh on the diseased part, for
several cases have been known where
the transplanting of the flesh of the
nose has endangered mems liyes.-Lon-

A MAN OF
Peculiar Life of M~etastasfo, the Gel
ebrated Italian Poet.

Metastasio G69s-17s2), the celebrated
dramatic and operate poet, spent fifty
five years in Vienna with the Marines
family without ever learning German
or wishing to learn it.
Besides his utter indifference to all
speech but Italian, Metastasio possess
ed many pe~culiarities of character.
None might mention death in his pres
snce. Those who alluded to smallpox
before him he made 1t a point not to
see again. In all his fifty-five years
I'm Vienna he never gave away more
than the equivalent Of S2J TO the
poor. He always occupied the same
seat at church, but never paid for it.
He took all his meals in the most mys-
FERROUS privacy; his greatest friends
had never seen him eat anything but a
biscuit with some lemonade. Nothing
would induce him to dine away from
home. He never changed his wig or
the cut or color of his coat.
Metastasio vas to have been present
ed to the pope the day he died and
raved about the intended interview In
the delirium of his last moments. Mrs.
PioZzi familiar to readers of Boswell's
Life Of DIR. Johnson as Mrs. Thrale)
collected these particulars from the la
dies of the Marines family, with
whom Metastasio was so long domesti-
Gated without speaking or understand
ing a word of their language from first
to last.
