History Of Westminster Hall.

Westminster hall is used as vesti-
bule to the houses of parliament, but
in 1T were held some of the earliest
English parliaments. Edward II and
Richard ii were deposed in this his
toric hall. Here English monarchs
gave their coronation festivals. Here
Edward II entertained the captive
kings, John of France and David of
Scotland
In this hall Charles I was con-
demned to death Here also CromwelH
in 1853 was saluted with wonderful
enthusiasm lord protector of England.
He wore no kings crown, but he held
a Bible In one hand and golden scep-
ter in the other, and he was clad In
royal purple lined with ermine. But
only eight years after this great honor
the protectors body was dragged from
his grave in Westminster abbey and
thrown into pit at Tyburn, while his
head was exposed on one of the PIN
nacles of this Westminster hall, where
1t remained for over twenty-five years.

MARRIAGES or THE CHINESE
Since Western Methods Have
Been Adopted.

No longer need the poor little Chi
nese girl look forward with dread to
her wedding day. says writer in the
Strand. Today she can marry the
man she loves and not walk blind
folded into matrimony with the man
who has been chosen as her husband
from earliest childhood. Until the
revolution in China in 1911 1t was the
general custom in the East for the
parents to allot their daughters hus-
bands from babyhood. and with the
consent of both families huge party
would be given and the children be
considered engaged But II was not
permissible for either the future bride
or groom to know of the arrangements
made on their behalf The families
might even drift apart, leaving the
young ones in total ignorance Of the
existence of each other. Between the
ages of fifteen and eighteen the Chi
nese girl was told that she was to be
married soon, and arrangements would
be made for the wedding, but the
young bride never became acquainted
with her future husband till after the
ceremony, when her thick. beautifully
embroidered, but impenetrable veil
was removed. Then would she behold
for the first time the husband to whom
she was tied for better or for worse"
knowing that she must resign herself
to her lot and endeavor to live her life
through with man whom perhaps she
could never like. Many young Chi
nese bride has been known to attempt
suicide, often attaining her freedom
through that one open gate-death.
But such thing has not been heard
of since China adopted the forms Of
modern civilization. The Chinese gen.
tleman has learned the art of court
ing and winning his bride, and the
happy couple enter into their matri-
monial compact with open eyes. The
Chinese are gradually adopting our
methods, and the marriage service Is
no longer a dreary and almost weird
ordeal. In fact, In the matter OF dress,
as well as in customs, the Chinese
are becoming very Europeanized.

RANGERS MEN OF RESOURCE
Hard to Stump Guardians of Uncle
Sans Forests, When They Set
Out to Do a Thing.

AS an example of the resourceful-
ness of the United States forest rang
err, always ready for all emergencies,
there stands 115-foot tower located
In the Sitgraves National forest, in
Arizona, which was entirely built by
these men with very limited equip
ment of tools and material. A TRAN
gulation station was needed in one OF
the districts, but because the area
was covered with tall timber and
had a very gentle slope, but one
good, natural lookout post could be
found and here, unfortunately, the
timber was so tall that the tower
would have to be at least 100 feet
high. The tools and rigging at hand
were sufficient to build tower of only
half that height, but, nevertheless, it
was decided to undertake the building
of the tall tower at once, without wait
ing for further equipment, for the rea-
son that the nearest base of supplies
was Is miles away, and the dangerous
fire season was close at hand The
materials available consisted of 300
feet of three uar'er-inch rope in four
pieces, the longest being 100 feet in
length; two double blocks six inches
long, and one single sheave block Of
the same size. The tools consisted of
axes, two-men saws, hatchets, crow
bars, two pairs of linemen's climbers
and belts and brace and bit. Tele'
phone wire was used for guys. The
crew was made up of temporaries and
two rangers. 1t the start there were
eight men, including one cook, one
teamster and the man in charge. BY
the time the tower was halfbuilt the
crew was cut down to four men, but,
Notwithstanding these adverse condi-
lions, the work was done. and well
done, and did excellent service, and
will continue to do so for some time
to come.

MaIta,a HHood of Shame"

A peculiar headdress is worn by the
women folk of Malta and is known as
the "faldetta" 1t Is said to have origi.
mated under the following curious con.
ditions, says the Wide World Dur
ing the French occupation of Malta.
over century ago, the natives were
subjected to much persecution. Their
religion was attacked, churches were
rifed and the women and children mo-
Tested. This state of affairs so
grieved those deeply religious people
that they made solemn VOW to wear
a hood of shame" for a hundred
years. This period has now elapsed,
which perhaps accounts for the grad.
ual disappearance of the "faldetta"
and the increasing numbers of women
who wear the --latest from Paris, and
generally follow European fashions.

Universal Instinct for Play.

In providing for enjoyment the
church uses one of the greatest meth
DDS by which human society has de.
veloped Association Is never secure
until 1t is pleasurable; in play the in
stinctive aversion of one person for
another is overcome and the social
mood is fostered Play is the chief
educational agency in rural eommun-
tiles and in the play-day of human
childhood social sympathy and social
habits are evolved AS individuals
come together in social gatherings
their viewpoint Is broadened. their
ideals are lifted and finally they con
stitute a cultured and refined society
1t is plain. therefore. that the
church which aims at a perfected so
ciety must use in a refined and ex-
allied way the essential factors in
social evolution and must avail itself
of the universal instinct for play
IF the church surrounds itself with
social functions which appeal to the
young among its membership, 1t will
fill a large part of the lamentable
gap in rural pleasures and will reap
the richest reward by promoting
higher and better type of manhood
and womanhood

Wires Near Houses.

The sight of man trimming q
tree suddenly falling to the ground
killed by shock from an electric
wire, against which the branches
were blown, leads Philip e. Edelman
to suggest in the Scientific American
that not nearly enough care is taken
in stringing high power wires to keep
them far away from trees. barns and
houses.
Mr.. Edelman says that every NUM-
cipality should require high voltage
wires to be separated from all neigh
boring objects by a distance of not
less than eight or ten feet.
