WHERE UNCLES RULE.
PeeuIiar Custom That Prevails In
Northern Australia.

Peculiar Custom That Prevails In
Northern Australia.
Uncles rule among the native tribes
bordering Torres strait, where the re-
lationship between maternal uncle and
nephew is regarded as being closer
than that between father and son:
There a man is bound to stop fighting
when ordered to do so by his mothers
brother, and the uncle is entitled to bid
his sisters husband cease any hostili-
ties in which he may be engaged.
Moreover, the quelled combatant Is re-
uuired to make present to the uncle
or brother in-law, as the case may be,
who stops him. - - 7-'s--e4.sy =
When a man marries in these parts
his father provides the wherewithal to
purchase the bride, but it Is the mater
nal uncle who makes the actual pay
ment and who acquires the credit at
tached thereto.
A man in those parts may not utter
the names of his wife's relat tons, and
when he speaks to his father or moth
er-in-law he must lower his voice and
speak humbly, the underlying idea be-
ing probably pretense that he has
carried his spouse away fOrcibly from
her home and must sue for peace.

FOOD FOR THE CAT,
FUSS Should Get Green stuff Both In
Winter and Summer,

FUSS Should Get Green STUFF Both In
Winter and Summer,
1t is a common thing to hear women
say that they cannot keep growing
plants of any kind in their rooms on
account of the cat, who persists in
nibbling and biting the leaves and new
buds as they make their appearance
sometimes destroying in the course of
few weeks some favorite or rare
fern or flower
The reason for this seeming yandal-
ism is perfectly plain or ought to be.
The cat requires green food if it is to
be kept healthy and happy and takes
the shortest road to getting it.
In summer, following this need of
its system, cat will eat grass freely.
In winter or in the city, when this
supply of green fodder is cut off, com.
mon sense suggests that the cat be ar
titicially provided with it.
For its own sake as well as for the
safety of the Boston fern and the rub
Der plant, why not plant a cigar box
of soil with some quick growing thing
like oats on sorrel and let the cat help
itself?
1t will soon realize the glad fact that
the plants are meant for it, as proved
by the fact that indulgence brings no
aftermath of slaps or seedlings.
AS one crop fails SOW another and
keep it up till Mother Earth provides
a more liberal supply of her own, and
your cat will bless you-New York

HOUSES IN MOROCCO.
They Are seldom Wholly Finished
and Never Repaired.

They Are seldom Wholly Finished
and Never Repaired.
Ia Morocco they build and make, and
they do both things beautifully and
well. according to one who has been
there But they seldom finish. I'm a
house dainty with fountains and ara
beSques and colored tiles" he says.
YOU will still find corner uncOm-
peted, a pillar which lacks the dell
cate huting of the other pillars, all en-
brasure for clock half Ornamented
with gold tiligree and half left plain
And if they seldom finish they never
by any chance repair. The mansion is
built and decorated within. Artists fit
the tiles together in mosaic of cool
coloIS and carve and gid and paint the
little pieces of cedar wood and glue
them into the light and pointed arches.
The rich curtains are hung, and the
master enters into his possession.
There follows the procession of the
generations. The tiles crack, the wood
work Of the arches splits and falls, and
the walls break and crumble. The
householder sits Indifferent, and the
whole house cOrrodes. SO in the mar
row streets holes gap and the water
wears a channel where it will and the
mud lies thick and slippery on the
rounded stones. The streets run steep
" up and down the hills, wind abrupt
~ round corners and dive into tun~
rHA,"

To be born within the sound of Bow
Bells has been a distinction for centu-
ries. The famous Old bells which have
rung so long over London, it may not
be generally known, are situated in
Cheapside, where they may still be
seen and heard. The street which pass
es beneath them is today the busiest in
business, so that few people today are
actually born within the sound of the
famous bells.
