AFFECTS EXCHANGE IN india
Brokers and Currency Dealers Find
Business Greatly Influenced by
the Marriage Season.

Among the influences which affect
the currency of country, probably
none but experts in exchange would
be inclined to include marrying and
giving in marriage, says the Detroit
Free Press.
Yet it is fact that the Indian mar
riage season, which comes in May, does
actually have an adverse effect on the
rate of exchange in India, just as the
exports of wheat and grain from India
form another seasonal influence which
turns exchange in favor of India.
Custom in India dictates that the
or his father, should give
gold and silver ornaments to the bride
at the time of the marriage. These
ornaments are called 'streedhau," and
they represent, in reality, a marriage.

sOlute property, and she naturally pre-
serves them with great care.

connolsseur of Feminine Beauties.

An extraordinary request from a
professor of anthropoio"y in Vienna
was received by the Western Austria
liam minister for educat on, Mr.. Cole
batch. This Austrian professor ap-
peals to the minister "as a connois-
seur of feminine beauties" for photo
graphs of several hundreds of the
most beautiful women in Western Aus
tralia. He intends to publish these
photographs in an illustrated cata-
logue of the beauties of all countries.
While Mr.. Colebatch's sense of humor
has come to his assistance and pre-
vented him from sending the extreme
ly blunt replies vouchsafed trade let
tiers from Austria and Germany, it may
be understood without fear of contra
diction that the Viennese professor
will not publish the Western Australia
reply. If selection of press COM
ments on the professor were forward
ed to him he would recognize that
western Australia girls have the knack
OF saying the right thing in the right
way at the right time.

The Why of Jayhawkers.

"Wilder's Annals Of Kansas" gives
this history of the word: "One au-
tumn morning in this year GS56) Pat
Devlin, Free State Irishman, rode
into Osawatomle on a horse heavily
laden with many kinds of goods. Have
you been foraging, Pat? Yes, I've
been jayhawking. In Ireland we have
"a bird we call the jayhawk; it worries
its prey before devouring it; and jay
hawking is a good name for the bust
ness I've been in This is the only
known origin of the word. Colonel
Jennison, early in the war (between
the pro-slavery and free state forces)
called himself and his soldiers jay
hawkers, and the name soon came to
be applied to all Kansans. Others at
tribute the word to Col. Charles r.
Jennison, one of the Free State lead
ers, claiming that he "coined" it. Jay
hawking" was the term used to de-
scribe the depredations of the Kansans
and they were called "Jayhawkers," as
the term Border Ruffians" was applied
to the Missouri pro-slavery men.

has only to see the young girls (and
some of the old), waiting to catch
the brides bouquet at wedding In
order to be the next bride, to know
that they are all ready to test out any
husband-getting charm. And one may
look in vain for the single girl brave
enough to take the 'last piece" of
cake or candy on the plate and thus
run the risk of becoming an "old
