Odd Marriage Rites Are
Observed by Canadians

Ancient matrimonial customs pre-
vailing in certain sections Of some
French Canadian provinces probab-
ly would amaze prospective brides
in the United States. Much of the
form and tradition harks back two
and three centuries to the mother
country, France, says writer in
the Philadelphia Inquirer.
In some outlying districts and viii
lagos a wedding assumes the char
acter of festival
One of the picturesque customs
surviving among the "habitants." or
rural residents, is that Of the pub
lie wedding procession which passes
through the streets to the church.
At the head of the procession is
the groom, his two nearest Of kin
walking with him. Next come his
friends and relatives who are mar
ried, marching in pairs. and then
the single men of his encourage. Be-
hind them comes the bride, escort
ed by a large assemblage Of her
own relatives and friends marching
in the same order as those Of the
groom.
Another quaint custom is the we'd
ding feast. The bride is seated at
the head Of the table, but the groom
stands behind the chair and serves
her throughout the dinner.

Nature Supplies Power
and Ice From Volcanoes

Sometimes Nature supplies power
for nothing. The people Of Larder-
clio, in the Province Of Pisa, Italy,
live at the foot of an active volcano.
Every unit Of heat, power, and
light used in the town is obtained
from it's fiery interior, thus saving
the citizens endless expense and
taxation. In addition, commercial
borax is obtained from blow
holes" in the hillside, relates a writ
er in London Answers Magazine.
The people of Syria, Austria. live
beside another kindly mountain.
This is der Erzberg," the Iron
Mountain, which is 5000 feet high
and contains about 300, 900, 900 tons
Of iron ore-ffty per cent Of its vol.
une.
There is another iron mountain In
neutrality-suspicious. is g..
ass feet high and contains more
high-grade iron than any other
equal area on earth, for seventy
Per cent is pure iron.
Needless to say, both these noun
tains have been exploited by the
communities who live in the vicin-
ity.
Nature has also her own gas
works. Medicine Hat, in Alberta,
has for years obtained gas and light
from inexhaustible subterranean
generating stations. There are a
number of wells which supply fifty
miles Of houses and streets.
Welland, Ontario, also has a nat
ural gas supply, and so has some OF
the Mid-Western Of the United
States, but in the latter case gas is
sent by pipeline from Texas-where
the wells are-800 miles away.
Mexico has a volcano that pro-
duces ice. This is Colima, which
sometimes bursts into activity. By
some freak, huge hailstones fall
continuously round the crater.
These are collected in special bins,
conveyed to distant towns, and sold
In cafes and hotels.

First Brakes Were Used
in Seventeenth Century

The Greeks and Romans had no
brakes. It was not until the Sew
enteenth century that anything re-
sembling a modern brake came in
to existence. For not until then.
observes a writer in Fortune Maya
zine, did it occur to anyone to move
wheeled vehicles along tracks. The
track, eliminating Irregularities in
the roadway, stepped up vehicular
speeds, thereby creating the neces-
sity that mothered the invention of
the brake. Early brakes were hand
operated levers, worked by defect
ing the lever so that its business
end was forced against the wheel.
Even the earliest steam locomo-
tives. however were too potent for
handwriting, and in 1888 Robert
Stephenson invented power
(steam-driven) brake to 60 with
them. The individual cars making
up the trains, however, were hand
braked. HANDWRITING was made
quate even for the short, light trains
of the 1905; no two brakemen
braked with the same speed; the
trains stopped slowly and jerkily
and with high percentage Of brake
man mortality.

Abyssinians Used Coffee
as a Food for Soldiers

Coffee was used by the Abyssin-
ians for centuries before any,
one else learned of its merits. Be.
sides making a beverage of it, these
people used it as a war food, mix
ing pulverized, roasted coffee with
grease and molding it into balls. 1t
was the only food they carried on
short marches, relates writer in
the Kansas City Star.
Later its use as beverage spread
through Arabia into Egypt and to
Constantinople. Venice accepted it
early in the Seventeenth century
and next England, the student body
at Oxford setting the example. Soon
its use had spread over Europe and
coffee houses became the meeting
places for those interested in
politics and other current questions.
Many religiously inclined among
both Mohammedans and Christians
denounced coffee as an intoxicating
and insidiously pernicious drink;
statesmen saw political danger in
the discussion which marked the
attendance at the coffee houses and
governments opened new sources Of
revenue by heavy taxation on every
gallon of coffee brewed.
Beans have been cultivated since
long before there was any recorded
history. They are known to have
been eaten by the ancient Egyptians
and Greeks, and when the first voy-
ayers reached the western continent
they found beans growing. Natives
of this country added corn to give
the world the dish known as succo-
fash.

.onored for Trying to
Steal the Crown Jewels

Do you know that the Crown jew
els were stolen from the Tower OF
London more than two hundred ana
sixty years ago?
At that time, the jewels were kept
In small iron cage on the lower
floor of Martin Tower, relates a
writer in Pearson's London Weekly,
and here they attracted the atten-
ton of Captain Blood. notorious
Irish swashbuckler.
Blood disguised himself as a par
son and paid regular visits to the
Martin Tower. Soon he was friend
ly with the eighty-year-old keeper.
and suggested that a marriage
might be arranged between his
nephew and the keepers pretty
daughter.
He appointed rendezvous for the
couple at the unromantic hour of 2
a. M, on May 9, 1871. But. instead
of the nephew" Blood turned up
with three lusty swordsmen, who
knocked down and gagged the old
keeper. Blood snatched the Crown,
and while one accomplice seized the
Orb with its giant ruby, another
sawed the Sceptre into three parts.
But at that very moment NE keep
er's son returned from a long cam
paign in Flanders. He gave the
alarm, and a guardsman captured
Blood at st. Katherine's wharf.
Charles II treated the whole at
fair as a joke. Not only did he par
don Blood, but he received him into
court, and granted him an estate
in Ireland to console him for his
failure to bring off the most daring
burglary in British history.

ArteSian Wells

Artesian wells are Tho ones in
which the water rises ABOVE the
point at which it is encountered. If
the rise is enough to cause the
water to flow over the top of the
pipe flowing well is the result. All
flowing wells are artesian but not all
artesian wells are flowing wells. Ar
tesian water is usually good water
although it is apt to be rather hard.
Water from deep wells, unless thay
happen to be in limestone, is as
pure as any ground water can be.
Pure water is a relative term for
all ground water naturally contains
some foreign material which it has
picked up in its passage through
the soil and earth formations.

Despised English Language

Francis Bacon, the famous philos-
opher, politician, scientist, and writ.
er, who lived under Queen Eliza
beth and James I, despised the Eng
lish language, although his own
clear, strong prose is perhaps the
finest to which Elizabethan English
ever reached. He wrote his most
important books in Latin because
he wanted them to be read by fu.
ture generations, and he believed
that the English language would die
out and be forgotten. He even had
some of his English writings trans
lated into Latin for that reason.
