Professionalism in France

According to an article in the Revue
the number of Protestants in France
is decreasing. They now number 7OO,-
600 The Lutherans, who numbered
more than a quarter of a million in
1870, can now boast of a membership
of only $4,000 in France. The Calvin
lists are the most numerous sect left,
numbering over half a million But
they are losing ground. At the same
time the political influence of the
French Professionals is ,out of all pro-
portion to their numbers. This the
writer attributes to their superior
system Of education, and above all to
their great wealth. Their wealth has,
however, tended to sap their exclusive
ness. They now pay less attention to
their religion. and the result is, says
the writer in the Revue, that Protes-
tantism in France will in the near fu-
ture be thing Of the past. This is
a rather bold conclusion, and it would
be interesting to know if this alleged
decrease in the Huguenots is correct.

FOREIGN BELIEFS ARE QUEER
Spanish Wedding Is Ruined if One
Person Appear Entirely in Black
Some Other Signs.

In Spain the wedding is spoiled If
one of the guests appears entirely in
black, or if the bride looks into a
mirror after orange blossoms and veil
are fast in her headdFess.
When persons hair ends split, it's
taken by the superstitious for a sign
that she is either a witch or has been
bewitched. AS blond hair splits more
readily than dark hair, all witches,
spirits and sorceresses have blond or
red hair, according to popular belief.
Likewise, according to the star lard Of
art.
On the marriage eve there is often
much good-natured rivalry between
the groom and the bride in the SlaV
countries as to who shall blow out
the candle, for the person who does
will be first to die" 1t is impossible
to trace the origin of this superstition,
yet it prevails in aristocratic society
as we'll as in the peasants hut, even
as like this, that ito insure the life
and health of the children" the wom-
an must occupy the right side of the
bed. In addition, she must not smoke
before her forty-f1fth year.
There is a superstition in this coun-
try and many others against burning
a broom. The bud of birch broom is
used in Southern Germany as a pre-
Ventive against erysipelas. These
buds, a piece Of yellow wax and some
other articles are enclosed in a pink
silk bag, secured with red silk and
worn on the back of the neck The
person must change his shirt every
Friday.

more than half way promise to mar

the SHOWS to claim the fUIfllment"
You never told me that" exclaimed
NeWbold sternIy and again addressing
the woman rather than the man.

swered quickly. Il was a young girl,
heart free; I liked this man. perhaps
because he was so different from those
to whom I had been accustomed, and
when he pressed his suit upon me-. l
told him the truth. I did not love
him, did not know whether / might
grow to care for him or not; If 1 did,
I should marry him and If I did not
no power on earth could make me.
And now hate him!" She flung the
words at him saYagely.
Armstrong was beside himself with
fury at her words, and NewboId's cool
indifference to him personally was IN
endurable In battle such as he waged
he had the mistaken idea that any
thing was fair. He could not really
tell whether it was love of woman or

"I took it from her dead body" grit
ted out NewbOld.
She was beside herself with love
for me; an old affair, you know" said
Armstrong more explicitly, thinking
to use a spear with a double barb to
pierce the woman's and the mans
heart alike. That he DETAINED the

atesf German Fad

Germanys latest fad seems to be
the "Undosabad," destroyed by a Ber-
lin engineer, and claimed to be the
first transportable covered swimming
bath which affords practical substi-
tute for the usual expensive buildings.
The swimming basin is inexpensive
and may be easily transported to any
convenient location. The water sup
ply may be obtained from a lake. riv-
er, springs, or from the town water
works, as the use Of the fltra mini
mics the amount of fresh water nee
essary and so reduces the number OF
germs that the water is purer than
when freshly introduced. The bath is
sheltered by q canvas roof and fur
nished with a motor so that the air
and water can be warmed and the tenn
perature regulated. The motors sur
plus power can also be utilized in gen
Grating waves Of three feet or less
in height, thus destroying all germs
that remain, and add to the attraction
by Stimulating the ocean.

lions was deadly fear. She was
quick to perceive the hatred Arm
strong bore on the one hand because
Of the old love affair. the long cher
ished grudgs breaking into sudden
life; on the other she realized that
her own failure to come to Arm
strong's hands and her love for New
bold, which she neither could nor had
any desire to conceal, and the cumuIa-
ton of these passionate antagonisms
would only make him the more des-
perate.
Whether Newbold found out Arm
strong's connection with his past love,
there was sufficient provocation in the
present to evoke all the oppugnation
and resentment of his nature. Enid
felt as she might if the puncheons Of
the floor had been sticks Of dynamite
with active detonations in every heel
that pressed them; as if the slightest
movement on the part of any one
would bring about an explosion.
The tensity of the situation was be-
wildering to her. It had come upon
her with such startling force; the IN
