TRIAL MARRIAGES.
A Queer Old Custom That Existed
For Ages In Scotland.

A Queer Old Custom That Existed
For Ages In Scotland.
"Handfasting" was a custom that ex-
listed for ages i'm Scotland. The con
tracing parties met at the annual
fairs In their several districts. There
young men chose the maids who best
pleased them. They joined hands and
by that act became man and wife until
the corresponding day of the following
year. If the love and fortunes of the
pairs had prospered during the year,
on the anniversary of their meeting
they were legally married by the
priest; if all had not been WELL then
they parted.
The practice is supposed to have
arisen from the scarcity of clergy. If
the pair decided to part at the end of
the twelvemOnth, the bride was at lib
erty to marry another man, her APP
premiership TO matrmony not carry
ing with it any reproach to her. Such
marriages We're by custom made legal.
Any issue resulting from the union
would in the case of second marriage
be taken by the father and rank as
heir after the children of the marriage
which lasted for life
Many weddings We're unmade at the
end Of the year, but it was dangerous
il the initiative were taken by the
man who had welded the kinswoman
of chief. When Il Macdonald of
Sleat availed himself of his right to
send back the sister of II Macleod of
Dungaven, the latter resented it rs an
indignity. HE had no bonfire to cele-
brate his wedding, but he shall have
one to sOlemnize his divorce" Macleod
swore. He kept his word. and a terri
bic vendetta between the clans re-
suited.

PECULIAR EYES.
The Organs of Sight of the Spider
and the Snail.

The Organs of Sight of the Spider
and the Snail.
The next time you catch spider try
to find the eight shiny little eyes at the
anterior end, some above and some put
under the edge of what we may mag
inc TO be its forehead. To examine
these parts to the best advantage hold
the spider in twecZerS. or it may be
better to use spider killed by being
dropped into bottle of diluted alcohol.
These eight eyes vary in arrangement
and in relative size in various species
of spiders-ln some they may be ar
ranged in two rows, in other in three;
some may be very small and others
large and prominent, and so On-but
there they are. rather poor eyes, near
sighted, looking in several directions at
once, and the spider, which can never
shut any of them, is sure to see every
thing that approaches unless it is
asleep. in which case the sight is dead.
For some purposes 1t may be conven-
lent to have eyes that roll up and dis
appear at The approach of danger. And
these are exactly what the snail has,
situated at the end of two long and
sensitive palpi, or feelers When all is
quiet their owner extends these organs,
and you can see at their tips small
round knobs upon which the eyes are
placed. But If you touch one of the
palpl or even jar the snail a little the
eyes begin to back into these feelers
as the tip of glove finger may be
turned in, and they no longer see any
danger that may be lurking at hand.

The PASSION PLAY.
It's Origin, According 20 the TrHdi-
tion of Oberam

It's Origin, According 10 the Ir0h-
tion of OberammerEau.
According to local tradition, the ori'
gin of the Oberammergau Passion
play was as follows; When in the year
1888 deadly plague threatened to de-
populate the districts of Partenkirchen,
Escheloke and Kohlgrub, which are
separated from Ammerthal, or the val
ley of the Ammer, by rampant of
mountains, the Ammerthalers succeed.
ed for time in protecting themselves
against the dread contagion, but one
day native who had been working all
summer ut Escheloke evaded the quar-.
antine and entered the Ammerthal by
secret path in order TO celebrate an
annual church festival with his fam
lily. Two days afterward he was a
corpse, and in less than three weeks
the plague had carried of eighty-four
of the Ammeralalers,
Desparing of all human succor, the
terrified survivors addressed them
selves to God and registered Il solemn
vow that il he heard their prayer and
removed the scourge they would rep
resent, every ten years, "for thankful
remembrance and edifying contempla.
tlon, and by the help of the Almighty,
the sufferings of Jesus, the Saviour of
the world"
Not single pcrSOu died of the
plague after the vow was made though
many Were affected by IT, The first
representation of the Passion play in
fultillment Of the vow of these simple
villagers took place ut Oberammergau
in the following year, and it has been
repeated every ten years without n
single omission.

Racine the French writer composed
his work while walking rapidly about

One day while he was thus composing
part of his play of "Mithridates' in the
Tuileries gardens in Paris he was sur

and when they were finished he would
exclaim. "NIy tragedy is done" con-

4 Remarkable Church.

A small watering place in Austria
named Eichwald can boast of possess
ing Il remarkable church. 1t was first
built by an Italian architect at Venice
at the expense of Prince Carlos Clary-
Aldringen who is Il great admirer Of
Italian architecture When it was fin
shed the church was taken to pieces
and packed in thousands of numbered
cases for transportation to Eichwald.
At that place it was eventually rebuilt
and then made over to its Inhabitants
as a gift from the prince.
