MARRIAGE Superstitions.

In some parts of Germany the duties
of the bridesmaids are tinged with SUI
perstition. 1t is one Of their duties on
the morning of the marriage day TO
carry to the bride a myrtle wreath, for
which they had subscribed on the pre-
vious evening This they place on her
head and at night remove it. when 1t Is
placed in the brides hand, she being at
the time blindfolded. The bridesmaids
then dance round her, while she en-
deavors to place the wreath on one of
their heads. Whoever is fortunate
enough TO be thus decorated will, 1t Is
believed, be a wife before another year
has passed. In removing the bridal
wreath and veil the bridesmaids are
careful to throw away every pin or the
bride will be overtaken by misfortune.
while any unwary bridesmaid who re-
tains one will lessen her chances OF
marriage.-Dundee Advertiser.

CHAPTER X.
The Turn of the Tide.

From time immemorial the history
of the popular hero has ever been the
same. To king and patriot, to the
favorite girl at school and the small
boy who is leader of the gang" to
politician, to preacher. to actor and
author, comes first worship then
eclipse. The great Napoleon did not
escape this common fate; and the pub
lie idol VINO was kissed only yesterday
for having permitted the kissing Oh,
caprice of the human heartl Oh, cry
of the race for the unaccustomedI
From that first anniversary of his
entrance into the home, Abraham felt
his popularity decrease-in fact more
than decrease. He saw the weather
vane go square about, and where he
had known for three hundred and
sixty-five days the gentle, balmy, feel
Of the southwest zephyr, he found him
self standing of sudden in a cold,
bleak northeast wind. The change be-
wildered the old man, and reacted on
his disposition. AS he had blossomed
In the sunshine, so now he began to
droop In the shade. Feeling that he
was suspected and criticized, he began
to grow suspicious and fault-fnding
himself His old notion that he had
no right to take a womans place in
the institution came back to his brain,
and he would brood over it for hours
at time, sitting out on the porch with
his pipe and Angy.
The old wife grieved to think that
father was growing old and beginning
to show his years. She made him some
tansy tea, but neither her persuasions
nor those of the whole household could
induce him to take it, He had never
liked "doctoring" anyway, although he
had submitted to 1t more or less during
the past year in unconscious subservi-
ence to his desire to increase his popu-
larity; but now he fancied that where
once he had been served as king by
all these female attendants, he was
simply being "pestered' as a punish
ment for his past behavior with Blossy.
All. with its surprising ending that
had been a humiliating affair; and he
felt too that he would be long in for
giving Mrs. Darby for not having con-
fided to him her actual intentions.
Now he was afraid to be decently
courteous to one of the sisters for fear
that they might accuse him of light
dalliance again; and he scarcely ever
addressed the new member who came
to take Blossy's little room, for he had
been cut to the quick by her look of
establishment when she was told that
he belonged there.
In his mental ferment the old man
began to nag at Angy. Sad though it
is to confess of a hero honestly loved.
Abraham had nagged little all his
married life when things went wrong.
And Angeline, fretted and nervous,
herself worried almost sick over
fathers condition, was guilty once in
while out of the depths Of her anxi-
ETY. of nagging back ag In. So do we
hurt those whom we love best as we
would and could hurt no other.

Disaster Of a Century AGO.

Several lives we're lost and much
property destroyed by an explosion of
gunpowder which occurred at Wool
wich 100 years ago. Woolwich is the
most ancient military and naval ar
senal in England. In its dockyard mem
of-war we're built as long ago as the
beginning of the sixteenth century.
The royal arsenal contains a factory
for the making of shells and car
tridges and a mammoth foundry for
casting armor and ordnance, in addi-
ton to vast magazines OF great guns.
powder and other warlike stores. The
Royal Military academy. where off,
GERS are trained for the British army,
also is a part of the institution. Dur
ing the centuries of its existence the
arsenal has been the scene of many
disastrous fires and fatal explosions.
One Of the most recent of the explo-
sions occurred in 1903 and resulted in
the death or serious injury OF more
than thirty persons.
