No Butter With Dinner.

With the many signs heaved over
grocery and creamery bills, 1t Is en-
couraging to know that the crusade
against butter at the dinner table is
rapidly gaining ground, partly because
it has come to be the fad. 1t is a point
in which we Americans are more ex-
travagant than perhaps other nations.
A full dinner usually contains in itself
more fat than can be readily absorbed
by the system, and superGuous fat
tends seriously to retard, even disturb,
digestion.

NEW YORK, April 19-1hree jurors
were in the box this morning when

girl, charged with murder. was resum

expressed the opinion that the surpris

ground for the hope that the jury box
will be filed by tomorrow night Coun-
Sc. for both sides has restricted their
questions to the narrowest point and no
time is being lost In useless quibbling.
Nan Patterson pays the same keen,
eager attention to the selection of jurors
that she did on the two previous trials.
She listens TO each question and answer
carefully and indicates to her counsel
whether. the juror will be acceptable.
Yesterday she turned down a talesman
who was acceptable to both counsel
The talesman in question was apparent
" desirable to both sides and was about
to be accepted when Nan turned TO Mr..
Levy and said:

and the court officers had their troubles

talesmen were permitted to enter. Re

shall be barred from the court room
and many were turned away from the
door this morning.
Counsel for the defense have indicat-
ed indirectly that they may not call

eIal talesmen have been asked If they
would be prejudiced against the de-
ir: her own behalf.

sat by his daughters side and in the
tense moments when the prosecution
was piling in It's heaviest blows and the
case looked black, the 5ather turned to
his child and comforted her with re-
assuring words. The old man sits in

Goff's court. He can only see his
daughters back.

QUEER MARRIAGE CUSTOM.
The Malay Bride Has to Have Her
Teeth Filed Away,


Some Of the national marriage Gus
toms of other countries are distinctly
quaint and interesting and tozus appear
curious enough. Our conventional white
satin and orange blossoms are certainly
traditional, but otherwise we indulge In
no real madness apart from the throw
Ing of rice and old shoes.
An instance of a curious marriage
custom IS that of lower Ceylon, where
a cocoanut, which is regarded as a sort
of oracle, is sacrificed to the deities and
devils as solemn Offering
In Japan the symbolic girdle, so much
more expressive than our simple we'd
ding ring, is the outward sign of mar
rage, while in Burma the piercing of
the ears is the prelude to matrimonial
considerations.
In Malay. however, the poor bride
experiences a bad quarter of an hour
before her marriage, inasmuch as she
has to have her teeth filed down almost
to the level of her gums, process
piteously painful as well as disfiguring.
In spite of this pain, however, she is
expected to participate In the wedding
dance and festivities generally.-Lon-
don Standard.
