Leap Year.

The custom which ordains that a
woman may propose marriage to a
man in leap year dates back seven
or eight hundred years. An act of
the Scottish Parliment. passed about
the year 1928. made it a crime
punishable by a fine, for an un-
attached man to refuse to become
the life partner of a woman who had
the courage to "speak ye mon she
liked!"
The. custom in milder form is
referred to in a work published in
1906, entitled "Courtship. Love and
Matrimony."
"Albeit it has now become a part
of the common lave in regarde to
social relations of life that as often
as every bissextile year doth return
the ladys have the sole privilege dur
ing the time it continueth of making
love unto the men, which they doe
either by wordes or by looks. as to
them it seemeth proper, and, morer-
over. no man shall be entitled to the
benefit of clergy who doth in any
wise treate her proposal with slight
or contumely. From The Peoples
