FOREIGN CUSTOM.

A we'll known groceryman has related
to us the following story which illus
trates custom followed in European
countries. In some of the countries of
continental Europe when boy or girl
reaches a certain age the parents begin
to look around for a life partner for
that boy or girl so that ,5hen they reach
a marriageable age their match is al
ready made by the parents, who have
not consulted their own wishes in the
matter Usually the people of those
countries drop that custom when they
come to the United States, perhaps be-
cause here every man, woman and child
is a sovereign, and partly because of our
cosmopolitan population.
For several months back one of our
business men has employed girl of
about eighteen years of age as a domes-
tic in his home. About two weeks ago
a farmer applied for admission and
asked if he could see Katie, that being
the girls christian name The owner Of
tho house supposed the fellow was an
old acquaintance and neighbor OF the
girls family and promptly ushered hirl
into the kitchen where Katie was tusy
at her household duties. He then learned
that the two were entire strangers ard
had never before met one another Ikf
owner of the premises stepped over 70
the water faucet to get drink, and
while standing there the following con
versation in a foreign tongue was held
rs this Katie,"
Yes
my name is---. | am thir
ty-five years old. am worth 81, 600 and
have ) children. and butcher---
said you should marry me.
well, you're a stranger to me.
THAT don't make any difference
butcher you should
marry me, and he's your uncle, an'
/ you must obey him
'Well, I'll think ii over"
Since then he has visited her seFera
times, though what persuasion he usee
! is not clear, perhaps it was of the kin'
used BY Othello, the Moor of Venice il
gaining the hand Of the fair Desdemona
who recited his past life and thereb
completely thralled Brabantio's daugh
ter. Late last week the butcher callei
on the young lady and used his inhu
enee and then the jig was up" Upo
the farmers next appearance Katie fe
into his arms snd said Il am yours,
and it's all over now but the ceremony

''AUNT JAMIE. ("

Last Wednesday, March Both, was The

Aunt JAMIE was the recipient OF
many little remembrances, but that
which she priced the most highly was a

And always ready for fun,
Never behind with her help,

Many whose hearts she has cheered,
Send thanks for her Kindness to heaven.

Never Sinking what came her way,
Give three cheers for Aunt jamie.
