LONG WEDDINGS IN PERSIA
Ceremonies, Continuing Several Days,
Among Most Curious and Elabo-
rate in the World.

The marriage ceremonies which sol
emnize a wedding among the Moham-
medans of Persia are among the most
curious and elaborate in the world.
ANY American bridegroom who dis
likes what men are wont to describe
as the "fuss and bother" of formal
wedding should regard the case Of his
Persian brother and take heart.
The Persian ceremony may take
from one to two weeks for its compile
ton. Often the betrothal is a matter
of many years standing, having been
arranged by the parents when the prin-
cipals were still young children. When
the time for the marriage arrives the
guests are summoned by heralds, who
go about the neighboring villages,
bearing gifts of apples, cloves and
roses to accompany the invitations.
When some powerful parsonage Is to
be invited, the father of the BRIDE
groom does not send herald, but goes
himself, bearing as rich a present as
he can afford to give.
Before the wedding there is also a
curious little business arrangement en-
tered into. This is the matter of
"kaben," or the price of divorce. A
sum is agreed upon in advance by the
payment of which the future husband
can put aside his wife at any time.
When it is desired to make tie divorce
difficult, the kaben is set at some i'm
possible sum or commodity. The hus-
band may be required to give the
bride a hundredweight of mosquito
wings, or one of his arms or legs, be-
fore he can divorce her, condition
which generally MAKES the marriage a
permanent affair.
The actual wedding festivities ex-
tend over days. The guests are given
rooms in the house and served with
rich foods and sweetmeats. Musicians
and dancing girls are hired to enter
tain them, and If the families of the
bride and groom are rich the favorite
sport of the Persians may be staged
by pair of professional wrestlers.
After the celebration has lasted
three or four days the bride rides
heavily yelled to her new home on
horseback. She is followed by porters
bearing her dowry on their backs The
wedding celebration then continues for
several days longer.

New Medical Marvel.

OF all the remarkable medical In
novations, probably the most marvel
Gus is a new antiseptic solution per-
fected after ten years work by DR..
Wilfred Fralick of New York; DR.. Os-
car Eckstein of the University of Ber-
lin, and DR.. A. G. Allen of the Univer-
sity of Chicago.
1t is superior to the famous Carrel-
Dakin solution because, in addition to
everything that preparation can do, 1t
can be used on the brain and in the
abdominal cavity and can be injected
directly into the blood without dan
ger.
The last named quality makes it OF
startling significance in the treatment
of blood poisoning.
While to put the Carrel-Dakin solu-
ton into the veins of patient would
mean certain death, the new prepara-
ton, chlorinated solution of per-
manganate of potash, can be run di-
rectly into the blood stream without
disturbing anything there except the
evil elements meant to be attacked.
The Colorado statesman., 1917-07-14
The Russian Peasants.

The taking over of some Of the
czar's landed possessions recalls the
fact that Albert ]. Beveridge, in his
book, 1.-THE Russian Advance" pub
lished few years ago and in which he
gathered political, social and economic
facts, states that even then the Rus
sian peasant was looking forward ito
a second emancipation, giving them
new additions of land absolutely and
without any cost whatever to them
selves" When the peasant ceased to
be slave he did not comprehend that
he was still not free to use his mas
ter's tools or to cut from the land
owners's forests timber for his use.
1.-The most curious situations" says
MIR. Beveridge, "are even yet arising,
growing out of this inability of the
peasant to comprehend the obligation
as well as the benefits of his emanci-
patton. Liberties are taken by the
Russian peasant with the property of
a Russian proprietor which would not
be tolerated for an instant by an
American in the same situation. In
all of this there is not the slightest
impertinence, not the least intention
to wrong the landed proprietor, nor the
faintest conception on the part of the
peasant that there is anything immoral
in what he does. He or his fathers
did the like before, and he just con-
tinues to do the same as a matter of
course"

The Grouches.

Two men sat glaring and glowering
at each other in a provincial Y. M.
G. A.
"Who are the two grouches?" a
salesman asked.
"One is our hotel proprietor" na-
tive answered, land the other is the
editor of the local paper"
"What's got their goat?"
"Well," said the native, 'it seems
that at our school treat last evening
the magician asked for the loan of n
handkerchief, and somebody handed
him up big square of muslin
1.-The magician unfolded the square
and said:
"'Thank goodness there's at least
one clean sheet in this town."
And ever since then the editor has
insisted that the magician was allud-
ing to the hotel bedclothes, and the
hotel man has insisted that it was the

PRESIDENT BRANDS PROFIT
GREED AS ACT OF ENEMY
OF NATION IN WAR.
PRICES MUST Be RULED
PATRIOTISM OF BUSINESS MEN
MUST BE SAME AS THAT OF
SOLDIER ON FIELD.

shngton.-President Wilson ap-
pealed to the country's business In
terests to put aside every selfish con-
sideration and to give their aid to
the nation as freely as those who go
out to offer their lives on the battle
field. In a statement addressed to
the coal operators and manufacturers
he gave assurances that just prices
will be paid by the government and
the public during the war; but warned
thst no attempt to extort unusual
profits will be tolerated. Your pa
triotism," said the Presidents appeal,
"is of the same self-denying stuff as
the patriotism of the men dead and
manned on the fields of France, or it
is no patriotism at all. Let us never
speak, then, of profits and patriotism
in the same sentence.
"I shall expect every man who is
not Stacker to be at my side through
out this great enterprise. In it no
man can win honor who thinks of
himself"
The President declared there must
be but one price for the government
and for the public. He expressed con-
fidence that business generally would
be found loyal to the last degree and
that the problem of wartime prices
which he declared will mean victory
or defeat" will be solved rightly
through patriotic cooperation.
In unmeasured terms, however, Mr..
Wilson condemned the ship owners OF
the country for maintaining a sched-
ule of ocean freight rates which has
placed almost insuperable obstacles
in the path of the government.
"The fact is" he asserted, that
those who have fixed war freight
rates have taken the most effective
means in their power to defeat the
armies engaged against Germany"
Coal production and other indus
tries for whose products the govern
ment has negotiated price agreements
are not taken up in detail by the
President, his appeal dealing only
with the general principles involved
in the determination of war prices.

MILLIoNAIREs AND DIPLOMAT
Among 13e Named by U. S. as Con
spring to Aid Kaiser.

San Francisco. - Preparations for
war with England were being made
in the United States by German
agents and Hindu agitators more than
a year prior to the outbreak OF the
European war, according to state
ment made here by United States
District Attorney John w. Preston.
This assertion was in connection with
the filing of 139 indictments in the
United States Court here in connec-
tion with the alleged violation OF
American neutrality.
Two separate sets of indictments
were returned - ninety-eight bearing
on a worldwide plot to foment revo-
luton in India and forty-one on the
so-called Steamship Sacramento case
in which it is charged an effort was
made to provision German warships
at sea. The men named range from
millionaires and diplomats to Hindu
laborers.
Enemy agents were sent to China
and Japan to attempt to bribe the
press of those nations

in Belgium.
London. July 12.-Russians are
pushing on from Halicz to Lemberg,
capital of Galicia, and toward the
Dniester Gen. Korniloff is still press
ing the Austro-Germans back and has
occupied two towns on the west bank
of the Lomnica river. The Russians
captured 1000 prisoners and 30 guns
at Halicz and from July 8 to 10 cap
tured more than 10000 prisoners.
Germans have gained 600 yards on
the British along the User, and this
possibly means a new drive for Dun
kirk, or as some think, is to stop Gen.
Haig's proposed offensive. Further In
land the Germans were thrown back.
Violent artillery duels continue on
the French fronts.
Italians have captured Dolina, north
west of Selo on the Carso.
The coalition of the various ele-
ments in the Reichstag now arrayed
against the government seem deter
mined not to vote the war credit
asked until the political crisis is set

members have been accepted.
