An Exclusive Affair.

1T was settled some time ago that

B the father of a girl of the period, but
it yet remained for the young man to

ranged matters to suit herself without
consulting me or my wishes.
Now, i renaemb ered with what trep-
idation had approached my Wife's

and made up my mind that when that
young man showed up to ask me for
my daughters hand would have re-

WelIinrton.s Renrimand

During the occupation Of Paris by
the allies in 1916 a French marshal
shouldered an English colonel from the
sidewalk into the street. Thereupon
the Englishman, being forbidden by a
general order of Wellington to give a
challenge to or accept one from a
French officer, did what he considered
the only thing left him, knocked the
Frenchman down and later refused
him satisfaction in a d1eI. The latter
then made a formal complaint to the
duke, who to soothe the marshaps feel
ings sent a written reprimand to the
colonel, but in it-inclosed a cordial In
vitation to dinner.

THE BURMESE WOMAN
with All Her Failinss, She Ii Held
In tfig1i Esteem

with All Hex FailfnEs, She Ii Held
In ttigh Esteem.
Burma, as In many other things
writes V C. Scott in his book The
Silken East, !, is in advance of more
reputedly civilized countries in the
status it accords to its women The
infant marriage and shutting up in
walled houses, the poly gamy. the ha-
rems. the social punishment Of widows,
the denial of spiritual rights which pre-
vail in India are unknown in Burma.
Here women marry when they are of
age and after they have seen some
what of the world. They marry, for
the most part whomsoever they will
and from love. They are not handed
| over as chatteis to a man whom they
know not, but are courted and Won.
The married Womens property act has
| In effect been established for centuries
| in Burma. In this country where the
women earn SO much, the Woman'S
earnings are her own. Divorce is cas-
/ lily obtained, but seldom asked for. The
readiness of the Burmese women to en-
ter into an easy alliance, shock the viz
4 tue of the strenuous foreigner, but
within her ideals she is a perfectly
proper, modest and well hammered wo-
man.
She has failings. Who has not? Her
i practice of chewing betel is inelegant
and destructive to her teeth; her voice
is apt under the pressure Of adversely
i to be shrill; A1er keen business faculties
detract a trifle from the romance in
which, as in a halo, all women are en-
veloped; in old age she is very ugly,
and even in youth her nose is stumpy,
her lips a little thick, her cheek bones
high and heavy-but these are eau
casian objections.
I'm the eyes Of the young men Of the
land the Burmese girl is peerless
creature, and her influence over their
hearts and their passions is immense
What is more, few men in Burma ever
undertake anything of magnitude with
out first seeking the able counsel Of
their wives.

The Arabs pride In His Horse.


Arabian horses need no praise. OF
the many beautiful stories told of the
Arabs that given in the well known
poem "Achmid and His Mare" sur
passes ALL Achmid had a mare of won
drous speed and guarded her with jeal-
GUS care. A robber stole her, 1eaped
upon her. back and shouted to Achmid
to catch her If he could. Achmid and
his tribe mounted and went in hot pur-
suit. Suddenly the thought came to
him, IF overtake my mare she is
then outrun; she will lose her fame"
Shouting to the robber, Quick, pinch
her ear!' he revealed the secret sign his
darling knew SO well. Achmid lost his
mare as he knew he would, but her
glory was secure.
i knew that if her ear be nipped
The darling prize could never be out

AN ODD VERDICT.
Why an Indians Horse Was Declar-
ed Winner OF q Race.

why an Indians Horse Was Deelar.
ed Winner Of q Race.
a man who has Travelled extensively
In the west among other anecdotes told
this one:
81 was present at horse race in
New Mexico one day, where horse
belonging to an Indian had been
matched against swift footed pony
which was the property of cowboy.
The pony was known by the white
men to be a better racer than the other
animal, and the race had been ar
ranged for the purpose of fleeing the
redskins. An impromptu course of a
mile had been arranged, and the race
was to be four times over the course.
| The cowboys gave their rider instruc-
lions to hold the pony back until the
finish, so that they could induce the In
dams to make bis bets.
| 1.-THE Indians horse took the lead at
the start and retained it, The cowboys
offered more money as the race pro-
crossed, and the Indians. seeing their
horse in the lead, took the Wagers. So
4 it went until three and half miles
had been covered and the Indians had
bet all their possessions against the
money of the cowboys Then the cow
boy rider put the spurs to the pony.
4 He passed the horse In the last quarter
and crossed the line five lengths ahead
There We're three judges. Two of
them were Indians, and the other was
a cowboy. We winp cried the COW
boys and started to collect the bets,
when the Indian judges interposed.
9Th, uh, they. grunted, Indian
horse Win!
- 'HoW's that? shouted the cowboys.
i Didn't the pony come in frst:'
But Indians horse was in front
most of the way. Indians VIM came
the final decision of the two Indian
judges, and there was no appeal. -

that her career was not long one.
No human powers could have endured
