Weeping at a Wedding.

A Chinese marriage is all ceremony
no talk, no levity and much crying.
The solemnity of funeral prevails.
After the exchange of presents the
bride is dressed with much care in a
red gown, brocade or silk, if she can
get it; her eyelashes are painted a
deep black and she wears a heavy
red veil attached to a scarlet head
dress from which imitation pearls are
pendant over the forehead. A feast
is spread upon table, to which the
blushing bride is led by five of her
best female friends. They are seated
at the table, but no one eats. The ut
most silence prevails, when finally
the mother leads off in a cry, the
maids follow and the bride echoes in
the chorus. Then all the bridesmaids
leave the table, and the dsconsolate
mother takes seat beside the chair
OF state where the bride sits. The
bridegroom now enters, with four of
his best men. The men pick up the
throne on which the bride sits, and,
preceded by the bridegroom, form
in procession and walk around the
room or into an adjoining parlor, sig
nifying that he is carrying her away
TO his own home. The guests then
throw rice at the happy couple-a Gus
tom we have borrowed from the
heather.

STRANGE FINDS IN BOOKS.
Spectaclcs, Scissors, Letters, and
Even Endorsed Checks Found.

City libraries are prolific produc-
ers of odd incidents, Articles OF
every kind and description are found
In returned volumes. There Is. for
example, we'll known book mark,
endeared to Its owner by some asso-
cation, which has been found In re-
turned books at least one hundred
times. On two occasions indorsed
checks were discovered between the
leaves of works of fiction. The first
check, for a large sum OF money,
was left by young girl. who quick
ly realized her loss and came back
breathless to find the check still In
the book just where she lad left It.
The second check was In book re-
turned by young man one evening
Just before the library closed. He
was waiting haggard and wan on the
doorsill when the building was
opened next morning, and stated that

night had known no sleep for him.
AS may be imagined. letters are

they are sealed, addressed and lack a
stamp It is supplied and they are sent
on their way. But opened letters ad-
dressed to persons not known are
kept a reasonable length of time and

CURIOUS USES FOR FANS
Used by umpires at Fencing and
Wrestling Matches.

Various are the uses for fans in ia
pan. Properly manipulated, they many
times take the place of speech. The
umpire at wrestling and fencing
matches uses heavy fan shaped like
a huge butterfly, the handle being the
body and rendered imposing by heavy
cords of silk. The various motions
ol the fan constitute language
which the wrestlers fully understand
and appreciate. Formerly in time
OF war the Japanese commander used
a large fan, having a frame OF iron
covered with thick paper. In case of
danger 1t would be shut, and blow
from its iron bones was no light af-
tair. One notable variety of fan is
made of waterproof paper, which can
be dipped in water and creates great
coolness by evaporation without wet
ting the clothes. The fiat fan made
of rough paper is often used as a
grain winnow, to blow the charcoal
fires and as dustpan. The Japanese
gentleman of the old school who new
er wears a hat uses his fan to shield
his eyes from the sun. His head,
bare from childhood, hardly needs
shade, and when it does he spreads
an umbrella. and with his fan he di-
reefs his servants and saves talking,

UnbreakabIe Crockery.

1t is reported that a Belgian firm is
making hardened crystal dish which
in appearance closely resembles trans
lucent china of uniform shape and
manufacture. The resistance to
shocks and sudden changes OF temper
ature of this product are remarkable.
\ hardened crystal dish can be sub

been in use in one Belgian family 10,
ten years, and, with the exception OF
a few unusual local accidents, the set

Black lunus and White.

object lesson showing the actual harm
done to health by fog. There are pre-
served three human lungs, one quite
white, one quite black, and the otner
dirty gray compromise between the
two. The white lung belonged to
an EsQuimauX who had breathed all
his he the untainted air of the Arc

the property of coal miner, and it

pregnated with coal dust; the gray

Caucasian Skull GROWING.

BY comparing modern skulls with
those of the same race in an old mon

Dignt, of the American College of

to the circumference and three and a
half cubic inches to the capacity of
the Caucasian skull. The brain is
developed in the parts presiding over
the moral and intellectual functions,
growing higher and longer, without
increase of the lower portions, which

STARTLING BUT TRUE

People the world over were mortified on learning of the burning of Chica- go theater in which nearly six hundred people lost their lives, yet more than five times this number, or over 5000 people died from pneumonia in Chica- go during the same year, with scarce ly a passing notice. Every one or these cases of pneumonia resulted from cold, and could have been pre- vented by the timely use of Chamber lain's Cough Remedy. A great many who had every reason to fear pneumo- mia have warded it off by the prompt use of this remedy. The following is an instance of this sort: Too much can not be said in favor of Chamber lain's Cough Remedy, and especially for colds and influenza. l know that 1t cured my daughter, Laura, of se- were cold, and believe saved her life when she was threatened with pneu- monia."
