Shear Friends at Home:
One of our teachers who was to
have been married in January had to

not wish to wait until after the period
~of mourning. 100 days for the en-

Fortunately the groom's people are
very progressive, broad minded peo-
pie. and my cook was the middle
man. SO it was very easy to plan.
The wedding was in the church.

must be done by near relative, and
at is very important who does it, as
ut is supposed that in the combining

the bride, affecting her after fortunes.

who dressed her hair is covered with
glory; if daughter, with shame
so it is customary to seek someone
who has given birth to number of
Sons to perform this office. OF course,
our Christian people think much less
OF these superstitions than others.
ahe aunt who should have attended
to this matter in this instance was ill,
so Bertha was asked to help out. Of
course an unmarried Chinese woman
would never be asked to do this
among nom Christian people.

"Goesn of Whisky.

Forty goes" of whisky had been
consumed by the licensed victualer,

lacks the full appropriateness to the

the story of another big drink told by
Dean Ramsay. 1t was at a party near

Great Korean Bell Recovered Through
Aid of Wealthy Japanese
Antiquarian.

A great Korean bell which for 700
years has been lying 20 fathoms be-
low the waves of the shore of Chi.
kuzen province, Japan, has Just been
raised through the efforts of a Japa.
nese antiquarian, and now, crusted as
it is with the sea waste Of centuries,
it stands on exhibition at Kanegasaki
According to tradition, which is
only partially borne out by ancient
documents, the king of Korea decided
seven centuries ago that he would
send a fitting token of his respect to
kiyomori. the powerful leader OF the
Heike clan, on the west coast of the
southern island of Kiushiu. He or.
dered the royal bell founders, many
and expert in those days. to cast a
bell.
The dimensions were to be these:
In height, 1 10 6 shaku; in diameter
shaku 9 sun, and circumference
of 10 8 shaku Z sun. Tradition says
it was great bell, and in the absence
of translated proportions tradition
must rule in the abstract In this par.
ticular.
The bell was successfully cast and
was loaded on a mammoth junk at the
Korean town Of Masampeo. The junk
and fleet Of conveys sailed for the
coast of Chikuzen, in Japan, when all
the royal augurs had agreed upon an
suspicious day. The augurs were not
up in their business. for about half a
mile OH the Japanese haven a heavy
sea tipped the junk and the gift Of
the Korean king plunged into the sea.
