ALL MARRY ON SAME DAY.
Strange Custom Observed by Fisher
Folk of a Breton City.

In the city of Plougastel. in Brit
tany. France. all marriages take place
on one and the same day. The men
are all fishermen. many of them going
as far as the Newfoundland banks. and
are at home only during a few months
in the winter. One day in early Feb
ruary is set apart for the weddings.
Little counting is done. but much hag-
Cling over the dowries of the girls.
They have to bring a certain quantity
Of linen, chickens. pigs and vegetables.
Frequently a match is broken off be-
cause n girls father refuses to add a
sack of potatoes to the dowry.
On the day set all the inhabitants of
the region 20 to Plougastel. The popu-
lation goes TO church to hear mass. to
take communion ard to witness the
wedding ceremonies. Often fifty or
more couples are united on the same
day. Bride and groom do not walk to-
gether until the ceremony has been
completed. For the rest of this and
the whole of the next day every house
Is open To receive guests and to provide
food and drink for them. On the ven
ing of the second day the young men
carry the dowries of the brides to the.
houses of the groOms. There they
dance and frolic until early morning.
and. after they leave. the couple are
for the first time together and alone.
During the remainder of The year no
marriages are concluded. Leslie's

the fellow somewhere and had met
him, that he must be someone he
should recognize. For some time
he sat wondering where he had
seen and met the fellow. Then, o.
sudden, it came into his mind
that the fellow was the perfect pic
ture of an actor frequently seen in
the moving pictures. So he had be-
come acquainted with the face in
the movies, and when he saw a
face of that outline he felt sure
it was an old acquaintance. Thus
the movies have worked into our
