Rockets Aid Rridqe euiIdino.

The best suspension bridge in Eng
land is at Clifton. 1t is 702 feet long
and 81 feet wide, and more than 200
feet above the River Avon. 1t is said
that the cable was put in place by the
aid Of kite. First a string was sent
over by kite, then a heavier cord
was pulled across, then heavier and
heavier, and finally the cable.
A more unusual way was adopted
for starting the great bridge across
the Zambesi river in South Africa.
The bridge is the highest in the world,
400 feet above the water, and runs
from cliff to cliff.
A rocket to which string was at
tached was used at the beginning of
construction. The rocket took the
cord across, the cord was used for
hauling across wire and the wire
was used to pull over a small cable.
On this a truck crossed, carrying the
main cable of the bridge, which is 200
feet long, and the greatest engineering
wonder in South Africa.

LIES Great day
To East Indian Girl, Marriage
Means Emancipation.
Prospective Brides Outlook Changes
Almost From Moment Of BetrothaI
Wedding "Ring" on Wrist.

From the moment of her betrothal
the Indian girls experiences gradually
change, and from the day of her mar
rage there grows about her an atmos-
phere of calmness and reserve Even
her appearance undergoes change.
Her hair is parted, no longer child
ishly brushed back, and at the parting
there is touch of vermilion. Her
head is now always covered with a
veil. On the bridal evening the bride
is brought before her young husband,
and they Ore told that the moment is
suspicious for their first look at each
other. 1t is the parents of the bride
and the bridegroom who arrange the
preliminaries' of marriage, and hus-
band and wife see each other for the
first time only when the ceremony RS
performed. The old Vedic fire Is used
to celebrate the rites of the union.
This is a custom that had Its origin
in the sacred Vedas, the books com.
piled by Manu-, whose name is rever-
enced throughout the length and
breadth of India. The girl filings
garland of flowers about the neck Of
her bridegroom, in exquisite symbol
ism of the bond that is to hold them;
and finally they take seven steps to-
gether, hand in hand, while the priest
chants appropriate texts for each
stage of life Such is the wedding,
writes IAN Indian Prince" in Current
History.
The young wife's feet are unshod,
and the gold wedding bracelet on the
left wrist supplies the only hint of
girlish vanity. But she has other jew
els. Those that she wears daily are
of plain gold, more or less richly
worked, but ON her wedding night she
wears the slti, or triple coronal, set
with gems. Arms and neck are gay
with flashing stones. All these are
her dover, given by her father to be
her personal property. Not even her
husband can touch them without her
consent, though he will add to them
occasionally at festive moments.
These more elaborate ornaments, how
ever, are worn only on great occasions,
bat meanwhile the silver anklets, tho
golden necklet and q few bangles are
enough for daily use. The wife knows
her right to her own ornaments quite
well, yet often an Indian wife will
voluntarily give up the whole of this
little resource in order that her hus-
band may weather some financial cri-
sis, and an Indian mother will make
the same sacrifice in order to give her
son an education, The one thing from
which the wife will never part, how
ever, unless widowhood lays icyShand
upon her life, is that ring of iron COW
cred with gold and worn on the left
wrist, which is the sign of the indis- |
soluble bond of her marriage-her
wedding ring, in fact.

HAS ''c0ME BACK
Man of Fifty Need No Longer
Remain on the Shelf.
Formerly cIassed as Elderly, He Now
Makes Strong Appeal to Girl on
Lies Threshold.

An attractive personality in the eyes
of the Girl of Twenty is the Man OF
Fifty. 1t is the attraction Of the op
posite.
To girl who is just on the TIRES
hold of life, the years of the Man of
Fifty make a strong appeal, writes q
Girl Of Twenty In the Continental Edi-
ton of the London Mail. She, lacks
the experience and knowledge Of the
world, and though she may not admit
1t she realizes it. His presence acts
as an anodyne. For time she has
done with youth and her interests are
centered In those older than herself.
1t is often. only passing phase, but
nevertheless 1t Is very real one.
Miss Twenty is fiattered that a man
many years her senior should find
pleasure in her society. For the at
traction is mutual.
The Man Of Fifty Is allured by the
unsophisticated outlook of a young
girl. He Is amused and interested
and also, maybe, in her way, flattered.
1t has always been thus, and 1t is
natural that 1t should be SO. But new
er has the Man of Fifty been appreci-
ated as he is today.
Conditions have changed and the
Man of Fifty has changed-or rather,
he has adapted himself to changed
conditions. Incidentally, it has been
the making of him.
In those dim days before the war;
and the humiliation Of so many young
er men, there was no place for the
Man of Fifty. He was even too old
at forty" and at fifty he was relegated
to his armchair.
Things have changed since then.
There are many gaps to fill and the
Man Of Fifty is still filing them-not
only in work, but also in play
In so doing he is recovering his
youth, which he was in danger of los
ing. One has only to take a look at
the modern ballroom to confirm this.
There are many iron-gray heads there.
They tell tales although the feet do
not give anything away. These fox
trOts were not learned 20 years ago
they have been learned today and
learned well!
Thus in many ways Mr.. Fifty meets
Miss Twenty on equal terms. He is
not only guide, philosopher and friend,
but also pal"
HE is still active enough to enjoy
games with her-lawn tennis and golf
are not too strenuous for him. They
might be so to a woman of his own
age--that is where the girl scores. |
On the other hand, a girl of twenty
is. in many ways, years older than a
boy Of the same age. He is still boy |
she is It Woman-that is where the |
Man Of Fifty scores.
This Man Of Fifty is not always |
married and if not, he is not always
staid and commonplace. He has not
quite forgotten all about romance and
is very romantic. Then
he marries Miss Twenty. Is not that
the essence of romance?

ufacturers, and, in fact, virtually all
the leading business men of the city.
"The dealers in liquors of high al
coholic content have been spending
large sums to fight US. The brew
ers are not sufficiently numerous nor
well-to-do at present to give direct
financial support, even if we would
take it. To be sure, they use their
influence in our behalf when they
can. We are not holding big mass
meetings nor the old-fashioned sort
of campaign. We are making no
promises to candidates, but are keep
ing out of politics.
ITO candidates who ask us for
contributions we say, If, as you say,
you are a deserving candidate and
have chance of election, and if, as
you say, you are wet and the senti-
ment of your constituency is wet, go
ahead on the wet issue; be a little
wetter than your wettest opponent.
With the advantage of our campaign
for modification of the Volstead act
on your side, you will be elected if |
what you say about yourself and |
about the sentiment of your constit- !
uency is true. If it is not, you
wouldn't be elected though we should |
print thousands of dollars worth of
posters for your particular cam
paign.'" Mr.. Joannis asserted that
none of the associations funds came
from liquor interests, but most of it
from business men and employers on
a larger scale in other fields.

With the death of John Karst at his
country home in Sullivan county, N. Y.
there passed away an artist who did
much for wood engraving.
Karst was born in Ringen on the
Rhine eighty-slx years ago, coming to
this country when an infant He
learned the trade of wood engraving,
which he quickly made a profession.
He was not long in convincing the
heads of such publications as Har-
per's and Frank Leslie's that wood
engraving was an art.
When the oldtime plan of photo
graphing a picture on the block was
adopted Karst was one of the few
wood engravers who survived the
change. He induced a great publish
ing house to substitute artistic en-.
cravings for the denominations that
filed their books. An edition of a
geography with the most beautiful
pictures ever printed in such a text.
book resulted in revolutionizing wood
engraving.
For the next 80 years there was
scarcely an illustrated educational
textbook of value the engravings Of
which were not made in Karst's studio.
Karst was an authority on porce-
lains, prints and first editions Of
books. His knowledge was broad, and
every publisher of his time valued his
friendship, and not few sought his
advice.

A Canadian inventor claims to have
solved one of the greatest problems
of the age by producing a shirt cuff
which presents four wearing surfaces.
It is detachable, reversible and inter,
changeable. The economical man who

thus be able TO present a perfectly
clean cuff twice a day. If he wishes
to have his cuffs match his necktie

to do so with ease. The principal
