MARRIAGE sUPERsTITIoNs.

No other country has so many SUI
perstitions about marriage as China.
The Chinese never marry within a
hundred days after a death has taken
place in the family of either the bride
or groom, for if they do they believe
domestic troubles are sure to follow.
There seems to be no reason for
this belief, and the Chinese do not
attempt to explain it, but are willing
to let it go as an undisputed fact
A Chinese bride may be brought to
the house of groom while there is
coffin in the house, but not within
100 days after it has been taken out.
If the bride breaks the heel of her
shoe while she is going from her faith
er's to her husbands home it is omi-
nous of unhappiness to her new rela-
tions
