the exception Of those of royalty, at
which a Japanese paper pocket hand
kerchief was struck OF as a memento
of the event.
Indeed. the ceremony becomes still
more suggestive Of royal wedding
when 1t is realized that the portraits"
upon the souvenir of the bride and
bridegroom are-whatever else they
may be-remarkably good likenesses

Below is given a wealth Of informa-

various participants therein. Purchas-
ers are not only informed Of the
names of the IA bridesmaids and Civ

A remarkable autograph letter Of
Jean Jacques Rousseau, showing IN q
vivid light his views on the subject Of
love. has just been made public IN
connection with the Rousseau centen.
airy, and IL considered by the critics
to be an important addition to our
knowledge Of the great philosopher.
The letter was written IN 1889, the
year IN which ''Nouvelle Heloise' was
published. and is addressed to Deieyre,
Comte de Croiseul's secretary, who
had Just become engaged to be mar
ried. Il runs as follows:
Dear Deleyre: You have made an
idlotic mistake, for II you continue TO
love a promise is superfuous, while
II you cease loving II is useless, and
you may cause yourself the greatest
embarrassment. But perhaps your
promise has been paid for in spot
cash. If SO, have nothing more to
say. You have signed It with your
Wood. That is almost tragic How
ever. do not know that the ink
wherewith one writes makes any diff
ference in the faith Of the person who
signs. quite see that love makes
children Of philosophers, Just as It
does Of the rest Of us.
Without being your friend, my
dear Deleyre, have friendly feeling
for you. and I am alarmed at your
present condition. For heavens sake,
consider that love is only an Illusion,
and that one sees nothing as 1t really
is when one loves"
It is pointed out as showing curl
Gus trait in Rousseau's character that
the letter was written at Montmo-
rency, in the house in which Madame
Depiney, one Of his admirers, had jus
built for him.

THEIR WEAPON or DEFENSE
Mysterious Provision Of Nature In the
Case of Grasshoppers and
other Small Insects.

Everyone has been startled, on
Selling a grasshopper, by having the
animal throw of quantity of ''tobac.
co-juice" from his mouth. Many in
sects throw off quantities of juice in
this manner when they are attacked,
some from the mouth, some from the
'joints' on the abdomen, some from
special points on the head, or other
parts of the body. The juice thus
elected is generally some of the in
sect's blood, and it's sudden discharge
no doubt frequently causes the
captor to loosen his hold. or to drop
the prey altogether. Especially is
this likely In the case of those insects
that emit an acrid or a poisonous
liquid. as for example the Spanish
fly" or cantharides beetle. 1t is not
TO be supposed that this discharge is
In any sense a voluntary act on the
part Of the insect: II is a direct re-
Spouse to certain kinds of disturbance.
In this respect the action may be
compared to "death-feigning" in In
sects and in other animals. In some
Insects in which the Juice is dis
charged from the soft parts Of the
abdominal segments. the Juice is
thrown on upon suitable stimulation
even after the animals head has
been removed. This curious behavior
Is not confined to any one family OF
insects, but has been observed among
several species OF the grasshopper

nets, in members Of the moth and but

and even among certain flies. The
