Japanese Weddinn.

From beginning to end, curiously
enough, religion does not play even a
small part in Japanese wedding. No
priest appears at any stage. On the
evening of the great day, the bride,
with white silk covering on her head
and face, and entirely dressed in pure
white-not the color of joy, but of
deep mourning, for the girl is now
parting forever from her parents,
more 80, indeed, than If it was death
that had taken her away, for after
death her spirit would continue to be
present In the home of her childhood.
whereas now both body and spirit are
gone-is carried to her new home.
There she changes her mourning for
a festal garb. A feast Is celebrated
the young couple withdraw
and in the presence of only
the middleman and his wife and Of
two young girls who act as servants,
they pledge each other in very solemn
form, three times from each of three
cups. This ceremony is the
essential part Of the marriage celebra-
tion."-Japan Of the Japanese, by Jo-
seph H. Longford.

Birds That EIirf.

Henry Oldys. formerly of the United
States Biological survey, in the course
OF recent lecture at the University OF
Chicago, said that birds were DOS.
sessed Of an aesthetic sense similar to
that Of human beings BIRDS dance in
the air, do Highland flings,' and the
more sedate evolutions with the most
perfect rhythm" said Mr.. Oldys. "They
sing a bird ragtime,' and at other
times snatches of song which greatly
resemble our grand opera. There is q
blackbird that has a song almost like
Wagnerian opera: the robin is best
in so-called popular songs; while the
wood thrush sings song of four dis
tinct verses. Like the human being,
birds flirt and are filled with vanity.
In this capacity they use their plum
age with great effect. In the Congo
there is male bird that struts before
Its mate, and peeps under its wing to
see II she Is looking at him." The
speaker concluded with the statement
that birds sometimes copy from man.
and that man could learn a great deal
by copying from the bird.

MENAGERIE A COSTLY THING
Captured Animals Cost Circus Man No
Small Penny, Though Their
Value Is FIuctuatlng.

Il want to take little George to
see the animals" is what every father
says when he starts away from home
on his annual visit to the circus, and
the same bluff goes for little Gwendo-
len on Commonwealth avenue and lit
tie Mike at the north end. Fond
relatives always are glad Of the ex-
cuse to teach the youngsters all about
the animals-and see the circus them
selyes-but the chances are that they
90 not appreciate the true significance
or menagerie. To the circus Wis
itor 1t means strange animals and
thrills, popcorn and peanuts. To the
circus company it means something
like $750,00O, says the Boston Tran
script. This figure, however, is by
no means arbitrary. for the value Of
wild beasts f1uctuates remarkably. To-
day the value of rhinoceros may be
$lO,O00, but let few more rhinos be
hauled from their African lairs and
be put on the European market, and
the value per animal may drop 80
per cent.
Another thing that affects the valu-
alton Of wild animals is the question
as to whether they are acclimated or
green" The mortality rate among the
fresh from the jungle
is exceedingly high. The wild ami
NAL that has demonstrated the fact
that 1t can live in cage, particularly
cage that hops, skips and jumps
over the country with a circus, has
more than tripled his value.
A fresh chimpanzee from Africa is
worth from $500 to $1,000. Let this
same chimpanzee prove by his con-
tlnued existence that cage life is
not mortally tedious to him and i'm
mediately his value leaps to $2,5OO.
Another instance is the giraffe. In
spite of the fact that it is a rare
beast, its market value is only about
$4,000. The simple reason for this
is that the giraffe in captivity has
such small chance of continued ex-
istence that the average Snowman
does not care to gamble $1,000 on it.
The elephant market fluctuates
great deal. The price of green" ele-
phant runs from $1,000 to $4,000. Get
that elephant used to captivity and his
value jumps; but train him to stand
on his head, ring bell, beat drum
or balance himself on a rolling ball,
and Immediately his value scars. That
Is why the herd of 40 elephants in one
Dig show is valued at more than $780,
600. The animals born each winter in
the menagerie Of large circus are
worth about $4,000.

Not a Strong Araumsn.

Said an advocate of woman suffrage
during the recent campaign in Cali.
fornia: "A point upon which a great
deal of weight has been placed is that
women do not want the suffrage and
that 1t would be cruel to impose It up-
on them. The cry about cruelty TO
women reminds me Of dialogue that
passed between Johnnie and his moth.
er. Johnnie, your little sister has
been hauling you on her sled for half
an hour. Why don't you get of and
haul her?" Mamma, said little John
nile. i am afraid she will take cold"

Her Dislike Too vlao roua.

A woman in an English country
town took an unusual way of express.
ing her dislike Of the pastor. While
the congregation was standing. during
the singing OF an anthem, she rushed
up the chancel steps and began throw
ing hymn books at the minister, and
finally exclaimed: Take him from
the church," The minister was great
ly astonished, knowing nothing Of the
disorder until he was struck in the
back. He thought stone had fallen
from the roof. In court the woman
expressed regret.

AT RISK OF HIS LIFE
REV. DR.. PAlMoRE VISITED THE
TOMB OF AARON.
Mosque 10 Nothing Much to See, but
Religious Fanatlclsm Of the Ma.
tfves Makes the Journey Ono
Of Great Danger.

Rev. DR.. William B. Palmore of st
Louis. who has just completed tour
OF Europe and the Orient, said that
MS most remarkable exploit was @
recent nocturnal expedition at the
risk OF his life to the tomb on Mount
Hor, In Arabia Petrea, which is re.
vered by three religions as the burial
place OF Aaron, brother of Moses, and
nrst high priest of the Hebrew theoc.
racy.
Late on the last night Of his stay in
Petrea DR.. Palmore silently stole out
OF the city, attended by his guide and
soldiers.
When the little party at last stood
alone on the mountain top and saw
the desert sleeping far below they
round the mosque to be ramshackle
building OF white stones rudely piled
together and surmounted by round
ed dome. The guide without scruple
applied his stolen key to the lock and
the door swung open.
Il found myself in a chapel about
4Ox4O feet, says DR.. Palmore. "Ac-
cording to the Moslem custom, It con-
talned neither seats nor affairs. It
was completely bare save that in the
center stood a cenotaph, or empty sar-
cophagus, covered by a green cloth.
carved In stone was an inscription in
Hebrew 80 nearly obliterated by time
that could not decipher 1t. calcu-
lated that the Inscription was more
than 1000 years old. There was also
legend carved on the cenotaph in
modern Arabic.
had little time to waste, for I
was confident that If the Arabs in the
valley discovered my departure and
traced me to the mosque they would
XIII me. In one corner discovered a
hole In the floor, revealing fight of
stairs cut in the rock, and leading
downward
Holding my candle aloft, descend
ed the steps and found found myself
In an unlighted cave of no great size.
Like the mosque, 1t was bare and
rude. But across one end were
stretched two chains like sentinels
against intruders and behind them
hung tattered curtain.
Il stepped over the chains and
swept the curtain aside. The sealed
entrance to natural vault was re-
vealed and this vault was the tomb of
Aaron"
There was little time for sacred rev.
erie, for. If day broke before he de-
scended the mountain, his errand
might be detected and avenged by the
Arabs Of the valley. So DR.. Pal.
more, after touching the sealed vault
reverently with his hand, ascended
the stairs, passed through the
mosque and stood again in the open
air
His guide gravely locked the door
and concealed the key once more ih
his garments. The party made its
way safely back to Petra without dis
covery, and within few hours was
miles away on the return trip north.

LUNLTIc AS DOCTOR.

Berlin the other day, a lunatic man.
aged to obtain admission, and posed
as the doctor to the many patients
who called. giving them prescriptions
and advice. There appeared to be
nothing unusual in his manner until a
lady who was constant patient
asked him II he was acting as substi-
tute during the holidays. The i'm
postor laughed, and told her to take
peppermint lozenges for her lung
trouble. The woman raised the
alarm. and the madman was taken
into custody. Considerable anxiety Is
felt for the other patients, for whom
he may have prescribed poison. All
the pharmacists have been advised Of
