Man Provides Dowry.

Filipinos more often than not are
welded before they are 81. OF the
marriages recorded in Manila during
one day four of the men were 90 years
old, four 81 and five from % to 25.
Eighteen out Of the total 81 We're un-
der 80 years old and Is under 25 years.
Sixteen of the brides We're under 20
years. In the provinces the marriage
age is earlier. Behind these mar
riages are long engagements in almost
every. case. The customary law. by
which the mass of the people still live,
delays marriage until the parents Of
the girl give their consent; and under
this same law it Is the man, not the
girl, who brings dowry to the union.

the continent to the other. since il
must seem an undesired and unwar-
ranted intrusion by nation which
has outdistanced all others in the ex-
pansion of it's military and naval ex-
penditures in recent years, which
utterly refuses TO permit the smallest
interference with it's own affairs and
resolutely absents itself from all par
ticipation in the single going concern
occupied with peace questions. 1t has
once more demonstrated that not only
do we refuse TO see European Gues.
tions from a European point of view
but we insist little arrogantly that
Europe shall see them from the Amer
ican point Of view.

Rome Traffic Problem.

Rome is at last taking its traffic
problem seriously. The new traffic
police really make speeders stop and
show their license, and really fine
those who pass halted street cars
But they have not yet tackled the
condition, which, perhaps more than
anything else. makes motoring diff
cult in Italian cities-the italian
habit of discussing politics loudly and
earnestly in the middle of the street.
Motor horns make little impression
on patriots busy enlarging the empire

FLIGHT TO THE HILLS. By
Charles Neville Buck. author Of
THE Call of the Cumberlands, ,"
etc. New York: Doubleday, Page
Co.
THE Southern mountaineer, ma
rooned in the Seventeenth century,
is slowly moving out into contempor-
ary life. Teachers, preachers, social
workers, students of old English by
word Of mouth, painters, novelists ana
revenue officers have at points pried
riffs in this curiously suspended and
barricaded civilization. The subject IT.
self is one Of exciting import. That this
co'ld happen, that in the midst of
sweeping progress a section Of the
country could stand immune to it's
advance, is a remarkable and inter
asting fact. Latterly the novelist has
counted this retreat as his own do
main, wherein the truth behaves like
the most fiamboyant invention, where
in men and women comport them
selves like the resurrected bodies OF
their forefatherS.
This region appeals to Charles New
lie Buck, as several of his novels
demonstrate. Flight to the Hills" is
the latest case in point. A New York
fiapper, ION location" in Asheville,
finds herself in a situation whose only
hope is flight. Such is the motive of
the tale. The life of this girl among
the mountalneers pushes the matter
forward through hours and days OF
intense strain and trial among people
whose feelings and pre1udices have
taken on a Puritanic austerity of Gus
