TRY TO SEE HUSBANDS.
When Tired Of Single Life Russian
Maidens Resort to So-Called
Divination.

Russian girls frequently amuse them
selves by attempting to discover what
sort of husband will eventually lead
them to the altar. A favorite manner
of doing this is by so-called divination,
says Cassell's Magazine.
The girl who is tired of single life
sits in the mystic hours of the night,
between two large mirrors On each
side she places candle, and then eager
ly watches until she can see IL reflected
lights. If the fates are propitious, she
ought also to discern the husband she
desires portrayed in the glass before
her.
Another method of divination is to
have supper laid for two. If the young
lady is in luck, the apparition of the
future husband will come and sit down
beside her; but in order to secure sue
cess the girl must not divulge to any,
one her intention of thus attempting to
dive into futurity.
There is story told to the effect that
the daughter of rich farmer was in
love with a young lieutenant, and he,
suspecting that she would probably
have supper laid for two, climbed the
wall of the garden, and, sitting down
by her side, partook of the prepared
banquet; the girl being under the i'm
preston that it was his apparition, and
not the real simon pure

finding the weapon after his departure
hid it in the cupboard, as memento OF
the visitor.
Eventually she married another
sutton, and he, fancying that there was
some rival who supManted him in his
wife's affection, and one day discover
ing the sword, was confirmed in his sus-
picions, and killed her in a fit of pas
sion.

ARE STARS INHABITED?
BY seemingly Sound Reasoning
Scientists Conclude That
They Are Not

The conclusions of modern astronomy
On the possibility of the stars be-
ing inhabited are somewhat as fol-
lows:
1t is impossible for any form of life
20 exist on a lucid star. It is possible
for life of kind to exist on some of the
dark stars that are known to astrono-
mers. This possibility, however, is ex-
tremely remote, says DR.. Alex. w. Rob-
erts, in Chambers Journal.
|. Lucid stars may be accompanied by
planets forming stellar systems similar
to our solar system, and life might exist
on such stellar planets. There is moth
ing in the wide range of astronomical
fact to negative such a possibility; but
there is also nothing in the whole circle
of astronomical knowledge to affirm the
existence of such planetary bodies.
It is utterly impossible for life to ex-
ist on the moon. Novelists may discover
holes in which selenites hide, but science
turns these holes into graves and buries
the dead selenites in them.
1t is beyond our conception how life
can exist on any of the planets other
than our own, except two. The two
planets on which life might exist are
Mars and Venus. The soil of these two
worlds is solid enough to form a foot
ing for man and his Inventions The
air of both, though rare, is probably suf-
ficient to enable him to live and work.
There are times and seasons, day and
night, on both planets; certainly on
Mars. There are also mist and rain. sleet
and snow on both planets Again We
say certainly on Mars.
There are high mountains and deep
valleys on Venus, vast plains and gi-
gantic waterways on Mars
There is much that would 20 to make
habitable world on both planets. only
as yet no trace of life in any of it's forms
has been discovered on the surface of
either Mars or Venus. It must be re-
membered, however, that the outlines
of no object less than SO miles in diam
eter can be clearly discerned on the
nearest of the planets, and thus human
beings may exist on either Mars or
Venus, although we are not able to see
them.
Well. but are there men on Venus or
Mars? some one may urge, and in true
Scottish fashion pass on the question
and ask: What does the reader think?

Potatoes as Feed for Hogs.

Potatoes are quite largely fed to
hogs, but it is found advisable to boil
them. In the New England states they
are fed extensively, being boiled in
milk and mixed with meal in a barrel.
Frequently several bushels are boiled
at a time, and when mixed with corn
meal make an appetizing mess. The
OILY fault to be found with this COM
bination is that it is badly out of bal
ance. The potatoes are rich in starch
and so is the corn. To such of our
readers as are still following the old
practice we would advise the substitu-
ton of bran or of ground oats for the
'cornmeal. This would make a fairly
well-balanced ration. The Canadians
say that potatoes have good effect on
the quality of bacon produced. There
is probably no better use to which
small potatoes may be put than this.

MODERN WAYS IN JAPAN.
Except for Being Demonstrative the
People Are Much Like
Westerners.

"Ladies in Japan do not wear Jew
eled rings" wish to correct that
into Ladies of old JAPAN" etc. If you
but try to look at tiny hand of any
girl in well-to-do family of present
day Japan-a hand coming out of a
scarlet-lined sleeve-you will easily
find jeweled ring or rings on her
fingers. Jewels we had none before
but we prize them just the same, says
Sakor Shiago, in London Times. AS
to the wearing of rings, even gentle
men are often seen with a thick gold
ring made out of an old Japanese
coin called "koban." The study of
the introduction OF, a new custom is
interesting. In the case of SNOW
white pillows" they were first used
in hospitals, where we adopted. every
thing from the west as it was. We
did not have sheets for our beds
along with that, but cleanliness recon-
mended, itself to the japanese, and the
custom was readily followed by those
who took fancy to It. AS to kissing.
it is rather delicate to touch on. but
1t cannot be dismissed with a general
statement that lin affection and love
the japanese are outwardly undemon-
strative. $500 All depends upon circum-
stances Generally speaking; we @shun
the eyes Of the public to be demon
strative, or to seek the occasion, when
all can Join with u.s. kissing as prac-
ticed in the west is still strange to us,
but no one who knows about it would
wonder II young couple OF. modern
Japan should take to it to express
their love. J., Z y. Z >. :.,..-. :. :. IL
