MARRIAGE IN PAPUA.
Where the Bridegroom Always Hides
on His Wedding Day.


on His Wedding Day.
In Collingwood Bay, on the island
of Papua, l was awakened one
morning by a hideous noise, which
inquiry revealed was the formal
mourning of half dozen girls over
their playmate, who was going to be
married. This mourning continued
for three days, and then the girls
dressed the bride elect in her best
and escorted her to her new home.
A companion and | followed the
little procession, hoping to get a
glimpse of the bridegroom, but
when we arrived at his house he
was nowhere to be seen. The place
was empty. But the bridal process
sion did not evince any surprise.
They went right in and took posses
sion. Of course they knew what
we didn't-that it was etiquette for
the bridegroom to go hunting or
on any errand that would take him
out of the village.
But his relatives, however, were
much in evidence. They joined the
bridal procession at the brides
door and fastened her to her new
home by all manner Of lavish brides
to every girl, but particularly to the
bride herself. And when the pro-
cession arrived at the new home
they sang their gratitude and dis
creetly withdrew with the brides
relatives and left the bride and her
girl friends to take possession of
the house and stay there alone that
night.
Early in the morning the bride
would appear, SO we were told, at
the door of her new home and ac-
knowledge before all the world her
marriage to her absent bridegroom
by sweeping the ground before the
hut with cocoanut broom. Then
the poor little bride would be de-
serted by even her girl friends and
spend the day alone in the hut.
That night the bridegroom re-
turned from his voluntary exile
and the newly welded couple had
their first dinner together.-Cin-
cinnati Commercial Tribune.

The Canary's Claws.

If you have canary or other
cage bird look to its claws from
time to time, for in state of cap
tivity the birds nails grow so long
that they need cutting. If this be
neglected the bird is in danger of
getting its nails caught in the cage
and hanging there till it dies. Use
a sharp pair of nail scissors and
take care not to cut more than just
the tips of the nails. If you hold
the bird in good light you will
see a little red ssthreAd" in each
nail. This you must avoid, or you
will draw blood and hurt your lit
tie pet.
