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.

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.

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."

"Now that we are engaged." said the
fair young thing, "I will tell you that I
do not fear mice."
"That is nice," said the prospective
groom.
"And," continued the fiancee, "I can
drive nails without hitting my thumb,
and I know how to use a paper cutter
without ruining a book, and I can add
a row of figures without making a sep
arate sum for each consecutive figure,

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

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.

Pomeroy?they call them 'caves,' my
dear?and what do you think? They
gave us each a bottle of champagne for
nothing! It is the custom. Phil lost
all interest in Joan and her statue
when we told him of it afterward."?

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.

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. To
preserve the memory, even to an ad
vanced age. nothing is better than
mustard.?London Chronicle.
Beyond Belief.
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.?
