How tho Rrahman Cleans His T

How the Brahman Cleans His Teeth.
 When the Brahman cleans his teeth he must use small twig cut from one of a number of certain trees, and be fore he cuts it he must make his act known to the gods of the woods. He must not indulge in this cleanly habit every day. He must abstain on the sixth, the eighth. the ninth, the four teenth, the fifteenth and the last day of the moon, on the days of new and full moon, on the Tuesday in every week, on the day of the constellation under which he was born, on the day of the week and on the day of the month which correspond with those of his birth, at an eclipse, at the conjunc- ton of the planets, at the eQuinoKes and other unlucky epochs and also on the anniversary of the death of his fa- ther or mother. Any one who cleans his teeth with his bit of stick on any of the above mentioned days will have hell as his portion. "Hindoo Man. ners," by Abbe Dubois. s.

Old Roman Laws.

The old Roman laws. according to Colquhoun, conferred on the husband complete empery over the wife. All she owned or earned was vested in him, and he acquired the same rights over her person and property as if she were his natural daughter. The wife. on the other hand, acquired all the rights to a child and to her husbands s name and succession in the event of an intestate estate, and she could exer- else all the privileges to which her sex admitted. The power of the ancient Roman father over his offspring was originally perpetual, nor could the child be emancipated from the fa- ther's control during the fathers life except by that parents consent nor did he become sui juris until the fa- ther Cbeing himself sui jurisy died.
 when the son was emancipated by the simple operation of the law. In those brave days the father had legal per mission to scourge his children or to send them, fettered like slaves, to work on his estate or even to kill them,
 choosing whatsoever means for their taking off he thought proper.

Animal Instinct

A friend of mine saw two cats ap- preaching each other on the top of a board fence. There was no room for them to pass each other, and he won dered what would happen. When they were near each other one of them stopped, turned around and retreated till it came to another board fence that Joined at right angles the one they were on. The cat stepped off on this fence and waited there till the other went by. My friend thought this act showed an appreciation of the problem beyond the reach of instinct No doubt those cats had met before, and one was master of the other. What more natural than that the defeated cat should retreat before the superior and when 1t came to the other fence step off upon it and let the victor pass The action involved no mental process any more than when two inert bodies in motion meet each other and one gives way. There was no other course open to the cat. If she or he had turned back and taken to. the side fence solely to accommodate the other cat, why, that were another matter.
 The Gordon setter that met train of cars upon a railroad bridge and stepped down upon one of the timbers of the bridge and stood there while the train passed gave no proof of req soning powers. It was the only thing the dog could do. Nearly all animals know enough to get out the way of danger. If they did not, what would become of the race of animals ?-John Burroughs in Outing Magazine.
