Welded TO A VASE.
singular Marviage Ceremony That
Was Witnessed In China.

One of the most extraordinary OF
Chinese customs to western minds Is
the not infrequent practice of marry
ing celebrated widows to native vases.
An American traveller witnessed such
a ceremony, which was performed with
great pomp. The widow was of high
station. When the news of her hus-
bands death redched her she was in
consoabe and wished to enter the
state of widowhood. but her father de-
INJURED Somebody suggested that an
other husband might be Forthcoming,
and, as may readily be surmised, at
this stage of the proceedings the wom-
an was in despair. A wise teacher of
the Confuclan philosophy was consult
ed, and he recalled to mind the ancient
ceremony of marriage to flower vase
1t was rite of great antiquity, leg
end attributing its origin to an empress
who ruled before the Christian era. 1t
was decided that the woman might
"marry the red vase 1t was neces-
sary, however, to procure the imperial
sanction. This the great wealth of
her father obtained, and on May | the
wedding was solemnized.
In the procession the vase was car
ried under sllken canopy on palan-
quin borne by youths of noble birth,
while the bride followed in another pa
lanquin guarded by twelve maldens
and twelve matrons. A military guard
and a civic escort made up the parade.
Her bridegroom, the vase, is Il speci-
men of great value and antiquity; in
deed 1t is said to excel in delicacy of
ornamentation anything of its kind in
the Flowery Kingdom.

CHILDREN IN THE HOME.
They Bring Anxiety, but Very Much
More Comfort.

The children of the family-one Is
apt to look on them as burdens, both
ers and expenses.
When the baby comes, be it ever so
welcome, the mother has more work to
do AS it grows into childhood and on
TO maturity it is more and more care,
worry and expense.
And so the little children, those inno-
cent trespassers, are borne with as pa
tiently as possible until they grow to
successful manhood or womanhood.
Few stop to think deeply about this,
or it would be plainly seen how erro-
neous the impression.
The children of the family, instead
of being burdens, are burden bearers;
small saviors who are daily means of
grace, and who lead the world worn
parents once more into the paths of in
nocence and peace.
A baby's tiny hand clasped around
his mothers finger has stilled heart
throbs of sorrow and of bitter trouble;
babys arms around his fathers neck
have brought to the mans weary brain
n renewal of that love which is all
that makes life ivable.-Philadelph

WHEN A MAN STARVES.
How II Feels to Go without Food
For Seven Days.

For the first two days through which
a strong and healthy man is doomed to
exist upon nothing his sufferings are
perhaps more acute than In the remain
ing STAGES; he feels an inordlnate, un-
speakable craving ut the stomach night
and day The mind runs upon beef,
bread ard other substances, but still In
great measure the body retains its
strength. On the third and fourth days,
but especially on the fourth, this inces-
sant craving gives place to sinking
and weakness of the stomach, accom-
panied by nausea.
On tie fifth day his cheeks appear
hollow and sunlen, his body attenu-
ated; his color is ashy pale AMI his eyes
wild, CLASSY and canniballstic.
The sixth day brings with it increas-
ed suffering. although the pangs Of
hunger are lost in an Overpowering
languor and sickness. The head be-
comes dizzy; the ghosts of well remem-
bered dinners pass in hldeous process
sion through the mind.
The seventh day comes, bringing in
creasing lassltude and further prostra-
tion of strength. The mind wanders.-

SEEING NOISE.
The Method by which Sound Waves
Are Photographed.

The Method by which Sound Waves
Are Photographed.
Sound can be photographed by TAX
ing advantage of the motion produced
in tuning fork. Sound travels In
waves. each corresponding with an os-
cillatlon in the fork which remains in
a state of continuous vibration while
the note is sounded
To photograph these sound waves a
small mirror is attached to the end of
one Of the prongs. On this powerful
beam of light is projected by lens, so
as to strike it at an angle Of forty-five
degrees. The light is again reflected
from its surface, but In a new direc-
tion, and a very slight alteration in the
position of the mirror makes large
one in the reflected beam.
To take the photograph the light Is
turned upon the mirror in darkened
room, and the tuning fork Is set in VI
bration. while sensitive plate Is rap
idly passed in the path of the reflected
pencil of light. On development the
plate shows sound waves recorded as
a wavy line, and each note has its
characteristic curves.

There was tragic little scene imme-
diately preceding the marriage of King
Edward VII. when he was the Prince
of Wales. With several of his royal
relatives he was staying at the Prus-
sian embassy in Rome. where his host
was the German ambassador Baron
Won Kanitz.
The responsibility Of entertaining so
many august personages under his
roof was too much for the ambassador.
He appeared at dinner one night in his
dressing gown and slippers and to
half the royalties Of Europe exclaimed:
as this to go on much longer? | am
heartily sick of it. and 1t must come to
an end at once"
They carried him to his room and the
next day removed him to an asylum. n

Dctting For q ErienI.

A gentleman was requested by lady
to put her a tenner on certain horse
If he fancied it. Now, he did not
fancy the animal nor back it and was
greatly surprised to see it win. OF
course he was pleased, but his salts
faction was interrupted by the renec-
tion that the lady would doubtless
imagine that her tenner had been in
vested. The trainer inquired the price
20 to 1. Though poor man, he was
and is, l should say-so kindly and
scrupulous that he would not disap-
point his friend, and sent her f200,
which he could exceedingly i'll afford.
Doubtless to this day she has no
knowledge of the truth.-London Sport

When gallantry prevailed in the
south no woman was allowed to carry
home bundle Of any kind. If any
gentleman caught one in the act Of lug
ging a purchase from some shop to her
aomicile he felt in duty bound to tip
his hat, make low obeisance and beg
the privilege Of acting as her express
man. This common courtesy was ac-
cepted of all men in the spirit in which
a queen would allow vassal to serve
her. Nowadays southern women, like
their northern sisters, tote their own

A Poor Authority.

Dan Wilson was once trying a case
before Missouri justice Of the peace
when the opposing counsel cited
"Greenleaf on Evidence" so decidedly
against him that bold push must be
made. Wilson asked him for the book,
opened II, rose and, with look of
solemn surprise, said he was amazed
that so good a lawyer should bring
such book as that into court. ''Why,"
said he, "the author himself never
thought of its being used for authority
in any case. Just hear what he says
in the preface: Doubtless a happier Sc
lection of these principles might be
made, and the work might have been
much better executed by another hand,
for. now it is finished, l find it but an
approximation toward what was origi-
nally desired. But in the hope that it
NAV still be found not useless as the
germ of better treatise it is submit
ted to the candor Of a liberal profes-
sion.' Now" continued Wilson, ian
author who admits that his work is as
bad as this certainly never expected it
to be brought into court to govern the
opinions of gentleman who las sat
on the bench as your honor has for
eighteen months" The justice was
perfectly satisfied He ruled the "au-

BLOWING OUT A CANDLE.
The Eject PuT of Breath Has on
the Flame.

the Flame.
A burning candle is gas manufac-
tory on a small scale. The wax or
tallow is converted by the heat of the
flame into gas, and in that form en-
ters into chemical combination with
the oxygen of the surrounding air
This chemical union causes very
high rise in temperature in the ele-
ments concerned. In fact it produces
what we know as fame of fire, which
is simply the white hot molecules Of
carbon and oxygen. The gas making
process is started by the match in
lighting the candle and is afterward
continued by the flame itself.
Our breath acts in three way: Q) 1t
carries away the particles of gas bodi-
ly. (2) 1t lowers their temperature at
the same time so that they are no
longer capable of entering into chem
ical union with the oxygen. (3) The
breath contains carbonic acid gas,
which is incapable of supporting COM
bustion and so helps to extinguish the
fame

There has always been lower per-
centage of divorces among men en-
gagged in agricultural pursuits than in
any other calling, not excepting the
clergy. Soldiers, sailors and marines,
in the other extreme, show the highest
average Of marriage infeliclty. Next
among the high averages come the
hostlers, the actors, agricultural la
borers, bartenders, servants and wait
ers, musicians and teachers Of music,
photographers, paper hangers, BARRIERS,
lumbermen, and so on, diminishing in
ratio until the lowest average is reach
ed, as before stated, among the farm

Advocates of the physical equality Of
women and men might find argument
to support their theory among the
japanese. The girls and boys wrestle
on equal terms, and the women are
said to be as sstrong as the men-sup-
pie, bounding with the vim of life
and graceful in every line" The Japa-
nese women seek abundance of air,
drink pure water and go out in the sun
shine the first thing in the morning.
Consequently consumption is rare
disease. Instead of living in over
heated rooms they merely add extra
clothing to what they wear already.
Women always have some time for
recreation. Even the poorest woman
goes to the bath at night and later
on meets her friends. But all go to
rest early.

Dr. Manacolne, the famous Russian
authority on sleep phenomena. says
that rocking is an artificial method of
inducing slumber. The process ia
tigues consciousness by series Of
monotonous sensations and incidental
ly deprives the brain of its blood sup
ply. Absence of blood from the brain
makes sleep. The influence Of the lul-
laby is Objectionable, but not equally
so. A baby will go to sleep unaided

ghc Marvellous Ways of various

lieutenant Colonel Sykes saw at Poo
nan ants carrying out grain to dry In
the sun. DR.. Lincecum In Texas found
ants which planted a certain seed bear
ing grass, reaped 1t and carried the
grain into their cells, where they strip
ped II of chaif and packed ii away.
The paper relating this was read by
Darwin before the Lnnaean society.
Another observer has told us of ants
which grow mushrooms.
The foraging ants of Brazil and
western equatorial Africa are terrible
creatures. Elephants and gotillas fly
before them. the python takes care not
to indulge in II meal till he as salts
fled himself that there are none of
them about. They have n leisured
class" much larger creatures, which ac-
company their march, like subaltern
officers in marching regiment" they
are not fighters, however. One curious
conjecture as to their function has
been made. They are indigesliblc, and
birds spare the whole army lest they
should get hold of one of these tough
morsels This, ii must be allowed,
looks little too strange.
Slaves the ants certainly have, but
they do not make slave raids; the lar
vac of the inferior race are carried Off
and hatched out. The crowning mar
vel, however, is that the British slave

slaves fight for hlm.-London Specta-

FOR THE BACHELOR.
Advice That NIny Help His Course of
Love 90 Run Smooth.

Agree with the girls father in poll
tics and the mother in religion.
If you have rival, keep an eye on
him. If he is widower. keep two
eyes on him.
Don't put too much sweet stuff on pa
per. If you do you will hear it in after
years when your wife has some espe-
cial purpose in nticting upon you the
severest punishment known to mar
ried man.
Go home ut reasonable hour in the
evening. Don't wait until Il girl has
to throw her whole soul into yawn
that she can't cover with both hands.
A little thing like that might cause Il
coolness at the very beginning of the
game.
If, on the occasion of your first call,
the girl upon whom you have set your
young affections looks like an iceberg
and acts like a cold wave, take your
leave early and stay away. Woman
in her hour of freeze Is uncertain,
coy and hard to please.
In cold weather finish saying good
night in the house. Don't stretch 10 all
the way to the gate and thus lay the
foundation for future asthma, bron-
chitis, neuralgia and chronic catarrh
to help you to worry the girl after she
has married. Don't lie about your
financial condition. 1t is very annoy
ing to bride who has pictured life
of ease in her ancestral halls to learn
too late that you expect her to ask a
baldheaded old parent who has been
uniformly kind to her to take you both
in out of the cold.-Chicago Journal.

Virtue Is not to be measured by os-
tentatious giving. There is frequently
more real love for humanity in the soul
Of the man who removes the banana
skin from the pavement than in the
heart of the donor of the memorial
window in the church. Politeness, like
all other faults and virtues, may be-
come habitual. 1t is surprising how
many small acts of kindness, how
many little deeds Of helpfulness, one
may do in the course of day when
there are inclination to be kind and a
lookout kept for the opportunity. One
may set out with this intention in the
morning, and the footing up at night
not to others, but to ones own secret
conscience-will be cheering and en-
couraging.
