O. Osteen & Co. Curi?os Ways of Hoyi Maids. In this age of advanced views on matrimonial entanglements and obliga tions it is refreshing to read cf the cu rious marriage customs of the gentle savages of the Hopi tribe in Arizona. Here the Hopi maid does the wooing, for the women of the Hopi brand are held in much higher respect than are the coppery sisters of kindred tribes. And when the Hopi maid has selected the youth of her choice she goes to his house as a suitor for his hand and testi fies both to her devotion and her indus try by grinding corn beneath his roof until he is sufficiently impressed with her qualities to yield and name the day. When the Hopi maid leads the man of her choice to the tribal altar, she does so in the midst of elaborate cere monials of long duration, and when all is over she takes him to her home. Nor does she yield this ownership when she weds. On the contrary, the house, the fields and all the property save the herds belong to the wife. This, as will be seen, greatly facilitates the Hopi. method of obtaining a di vorce, for when the wife tires of her husband she simply takes his saddle from her floor and tosses it out through her door, and the divorce is completed. ?Cleveland Plain Dealer. Halifax. The evil repute of Halifax implied in the adage ''Go to Halifax !" came to it by inheritance from Halifax in York shire, England. Halifax law, as may be gathered from a letter of Lord Leicester quoted by Motley,' was that criminals should be "condemned first and inquired upon afterward." Halifax lay within the forest of Hardwick, where the law was that if a felon was taken with 1S%? pence worth of stolen goods he should be tried by four firth burgers from four of the pre cinct towns and if condemned by them be hanged the next day. After this proceeding had been carried out to the letter the case might be sent to a jury. Halifax is also credited with being the home of the guillotine, which the regent, Earl Morton, introduced into Scotland only to have his own head chopped off with it. Giants and Pygmies of Space. There is an immense range, of differ ence in the brightness of ?the stars when the sun is taken for a standard of comparison. Some of the stars emit only one one-hundredth as much light as the sun emits. Others emit a thou sand times as much light as he does. Indeed, one scientist thinks there are at least two stars, each of which is prob ably 10,0Q0 times as bright as the sun, Which signifies that if either cf those stars were as near to us as the sun is it would outshine him 10,000 times in brightness. The two stars are Cano pus, which is in the southern hemi sphere and invisible from our part of the earth, and Rigel, one cf the two brightest stars in the constellation Ori on. -????-.. : 6 ? Tlie Sise of Great Britain. Great 'Britain is only half as big as Sumatra and double the size cf New foundland. It stands fifth in .point orV s?z i in the list of -the world's islands.

The whole Brit ish isles only occupy the one sixteen himdredth part of the surface of this glebe. Great Britain is widest be tween Land's End and Kent. The ut most width is 325 miles. It is narrow est between Lock Broom, on the west coast of Scotland, and Boraoch firth, on the east coast The distance be tween the heads of these two inlets is but twenty-four miles. ?,, Rubinstein's Reply. When Rubinstein was traveling through the United States upon a con cert tour, it chanced that Barnum's circus followed almost exactly the same route chosen by the great Rus sian. On one occasion, when the train was filled with snake charmers, acro bats, clowns and the like, the guard, noticing perhaps Rubinstein's remarka ble appearance, asked him, "Do you belong to the show?" Turning his leonine head with a sav age shake Rubinstein answered fierce ly, "Sir, I am the show." Doubling Up. A boy of eight years was asked by his teacher where the zenith was. He replied, "That spot in the heavens di rectly over one's head." - To test his knowledge further the teacher asked: "Can two persons have the same ze nith at the same time?" "They can." "How?" "If one stand on the other's head." Don't Be a "Waiter. There are too marfr people in the world waiting for favorable conditions. Don't do it.

Here the man drew himself up with much dignity and sorrow and cried: "Then I cannot marry you. alas!" "Why?" gasped the girl.

Dry Rubs Veritas Baths. "I used to take a bath every morning, but two a week is my limit now," said a well known athlete. "Instead I use a flesh brush every morning for an hour, and I've never been in better shape in my life, I start at the top of my head with a hairbrush, then take the flesh brush?it is made specially for the pur pose?and finish the job down to my feet until my skin is nearly the color of a boiled lobster. There's nothing like it in the world. It keeps the pores free and open, clears away the dead cu ticle, doesn't enervate the system like a bath and above all is the finest exercise you can get Rubbing the body vigor ously with the brush, changing from hand to hand as the muscles of one arm tire, will keep you supple and lim ber. It's a great thing."?Philadelphia Record. Why Rabbits Do Xot Kill. Cheese to be digestible should be cooked, says a scientific cook. Some people think it is only a fad to put grated cheese on crackers and cook them in the oven, but that is an excel lent way of preparing this food. The Welsh rarebit, or rabbit, if properly made, is another good way of cooking cheese and is more digestible than the piece of cheese we eat with apple pie. When adding cheese to a dish, do not sprinkle it in layers, but melt it thor oughly in heated butter. Cheese to be digestible should be crumpled finely or grated, if eaten raw, and when cooked should be dissolved with milk or broth ! or vegetable juices. The Canary Household. To insure the hatching of canaries' eggs more nearly at one time the first eggs are sometimes taken away by the fanciers and replaced by artificial ones, all being put back in the nest when the bird ceases to lay. While she is sitting the prospective father lives up to his responsibilities and devotes his time to seeing that his mate does her duty, and when she leaves her nest, if she shows an inclination to dally, sharp peeks drive her back.

The Dinner Horn. Details in regard to the manner in which meals were served during the dark ages do not abound. It is only to ward the twelfth century that we be gin to have a little light on this inter esting subject. When a meal was ready in the thirteenth century, the guests of a castle, with the vassals, were assem bled to the sound of a horn, a method of "summoning that appears to have been the privilege only of the greatest lords. Some hundreds of years later a bell was used for the purpose. Would Accept Information Gladly.

The Oldest Force Storage. The water wheel is probably the old est method of obtaining mechanical force apart from the employment cf animal force. These wheels were no doubt at first worked by a flowing river and then by a falling stream, and it would not be a very great advance on this method to dam back the stream so as to obtain a continuous supply of force even in times of drought. Such storing of water at a sufficiently high level is the simplest and even at the present time the most successful meth od of storing force. If carefully ar ranged, the loss, by evaporation and leakage is small and may be partly or wholly replaced oy rain, so the force is always available, and but little labor is needed to keep such works in repair. The water clock of the Romans was an elaboration of this method of stor ing force and was for them the only form of "motor." Diet and Character. An exclusively pork diet tends in fallibly to pessimism. Beef, if perse vered in for months, makes a man strong, energetic and audacious. A mutton diet continued for any length of time tends to melancholia, while veal eaters gradually lose energy and gayety. The free use of eggs and milk tends to make women healthy and vi vacious. Butter used in excess ren ders its users phlegmatic and lazy. Apples are excellent for brain work ers, and everybody who has much in tellectual work to do should eat them freely. Potatoes, on the contrary, ren der one dull, invidious and lazy -when eaten constantly and in excess.

When Abhaham Lincoln was a young man, his prodigious strength and his skill in wrestling were matters of note throughout central Illinois. Few in deed were the men who could boast of having laid him on his back. Somewhere along in thcthirties there was a case-on trial in one of the circuit courts in that section in which an ef fort was made to impeach the testimo ny of one of the witnesses. The evi dence was conflicting. Some would believe the witness on cath and others would not. At last a middle aged man with a de termined expression of countenance was called to the stand. The usual question was put touching the reputa tion of the witness for truth and verac ity: "Would you believe him-on oath?" "Xo, wouldn't," he ".nswered. and before the lawyer on the opposite side could interpose he gave his reason: "I heerd him braggin' onct that he'd throwed Abe Lincoln in a fair an' square rassle." Xo other witnesses were called. The attempt to impeach was successful.? Youth's Companion. THE SUMTER SAVINGS BANK, SUMTER, S. C. ESTABLISHED SEPT. 26,190]. CAPITAL STOCK - $25,000.
