MATING ARRANGED BY ELDERS
Young People Of Java Have Little to
Say In Selection of Husband
or Wife.

Marriages In Java are typical of
people in all tropical climates, In that
the couples wed when they are very
young. When girl reaches her elev-
enth or twelfth year, her parents be-
gin to look out for suitable husband,
and after the selection has been made
ther start long preliminary discussions
with the parents of the boy. The fn-
ther of the girl then consults the wise
man" Of the village, usually the only
ltcrnte person In the community. fur
ther action being taken solely on his
adv ce.
the wise man takes the first letters
of the names Of the prospective bride
and groom and draws them together
In various shapes, then medltating
over the combination which is TO de
eide whether the boy and girl are GO
ing to be happy in their marriage. If
the drawing suggests in the Imagina-
tion of the wise man tree with many
branches. he warmly recommends the
alliance between the boy and girl as
the drawing is supposed to promise
'hem prosperity and, above all. large
family.
When the selection Is made TO the
satisfaction Of all concerned, the par
ents begin TO discuss the dOwry which,
IN the case of the Jnvanese. Is sup
piled by the groom, consisting of
dresses, food, household goods and
other similar articles.-DetroIt News.

MANICURlSTS HAD HARD JOB
Captive Numidlan Lion Strenuously
Objected to Necessary Operation
Of Nail Cutting.

Ten men and considerable maneuver-
ing were necessary TO manicure the
nails of Nero, the big Numidlan lion
at the Cincinnati zoo recently. says
the Columbus Dispatch.
General Manager Sol stephan found
nails OF Nero's forepaws had not been
manicured for three or four years.
In the jungle manicuring is not nee
essary. because the earth is soft. but
the cage floor is oak and the nails
become lngrown.
Nero objected as strenuOusly as pos
sible. but the operation was com
pIeted with the aid Of blacksmith's
nippers. Biting the iron bars of his
cage during his rage would have ln-
Iured Neros teeth and TO prevent
that a piece OF soft wood was thrust
