Premiums Upon Marriage.

In certain quarters OF the world en-
dcing premiums are put upon early
marriages. Some, years ago the mayor
Of southern town in France offered
q reward Of $50 to every couple under
the age Of twentyfour who sought the
matrimonial altar during his term Of
office. The mayor expended many
thousands of francs in the manner
described. Many years ago. when the
number Of marriages in certain Al
satan town was far below the aver
age, the municipal authorities publicly
announced that all persons who mar
ried within certain period should be
exempt from local taxes for the space
Of five years. An epidemic Of mar
riageS set in at once. A well known
Austrian nobleman was anxious to en-
courage matrimony among the peasants
on his estate He undertook to pro-
vide each bridegroom with tobacco
supplies for life and each bride with
four pairs of gloves yearly. The offer
acted like charm.

Remarkable Feat. of strength.

Louis de BoufHers. who lived in the
sixteenth century. could break bar
Of iron with Ills hands. The strongest
man could not take from him ball
which he held between his thumb and
first finger. While standing up. with
no support whatever, four strong SOL
diers could not move him. He remain
ed as firm as rock. Sometimes he
amused himself by taking on his shcul-
ders his own horse. fully harnessed.
and with that heavy load he prone
naded the public square. to the great
delight of the inhabitants. At about
the same time there lived Spanlard
named Pedro, who could break the
strongest handouts that could be put
around his wrists. He folded his arms
on his chest. and ten men pulling in
different directions with ropes could
not unfold them. Augustus H.. elector
Of Saxony. was man of great strength.
He could carry a man in his open
hand.
