Persian Wedding.

A smart Persian wedding Is quite
a serious affair. 1t may extend over
a week. On the last day OF the we'd
ding the bride. who has been treated
as sort of outcast, is conducted by
near relative to a room, where she
undergoes further and more elaborate
decoration. She then returns to the
guest room. and her dowry is laid
before her in trays. The dowry often
comprises such queer things as cheap
and highly colored oleographs, gaudy
vases. birdcages and many useful
household articles. Having kissed the
hearthstone OF her old home. she is
given bread. salt and piece OF gold
and thus equipped and closely yelled.
she is hoisted onto a gayly-adorned
donkey, and, accompanied by circus
like procession Of friends. goes to her
future home, where her husband
awaits her.

A unique timepiece has recently
been invented by Eugene Walser. a
matchmaker in Los Angeles. Four
years of work has perfected a clock
which keeps accurate time but is
without spring in its makeup. The
motive power Is gained by the clock
rolling down an incline, regulated by
wonderful arrangement OF weights
on the inside Of the clock. There is
no winding to be done. but every
thirty days the clock is lifted to the
top Of the incline and begins to slide
downward. The dial does not revolve
with the case, but remains as an or.
binary dial with the figure IL at the
top. The incline is of polished wood.
16 inches long. with an 8 1-3 per cent
grade. There is no relation between
the wood and the clock; 1t is simply
a matter Of properly adjusted weights
which move the hands and control
the downward motion of the time
piece.

Serious Diseases

We cannot all start life with the ad-
vantages of money. but every child
born Is entitled to the heritage OF
good health. Through unfortunate tg-
norance or carelessness in the feeding
of q baby its tiny stomach may be-
come deranged. The disorder spreads
to the bowels and before the mother
realizes 1t the two chief organs on
which the infants comfort and health
depend are causing 1t great suffering.
II the condition Is allowed to continue
grave ailments often result.
There is, however. no occasion for
alarm, and the sensible thing to do
but 1t should be done instantly-is to
give the baby small dose Of mild
laxative tonic. In the opinion of a
great many people. among them such
well-known persons as the parents of
Dixie Dudley, Magnolia, Ark. the
proper remedy is DR. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin Mrs. Earl Dudley writes:' 'Dr.
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is the best
medicine I ever used. It cured my
baby of fiatulency collie when the doc
tors failed; 1t cured my husband of
constipation. My home shall never
be without Syrup Pepsin." 1t ia a
pleasant-tasting laxative. which every
person likes. It is mild, non-griping,
and contains that most excellent OF all

The trouble to which an enthusiast
about things ancient will go to carry
out an idea Is exemplified in the de-
mand made some time ago upon a
lock-making concern. An old-time
lock, with both case and key large.
was ordered by the owner of subur-
ban home built in the colonial style.
This requirement was met by casting
a large case which included within 1t
a small modern lock, but the buyer
also demanded that 1t produce the
harsh, rasping noise OF an ancient
lock. This was finally accomplished
by attaching file to the upper part
