IN to THE PROCTER & GAMBLE CO. CINTI. A KABYLE MARRIAGE. The Ceremony Is Complicated ud Winds Up With an Exciting Incident. The wedding ceremony among the Kabyles is interesting because of its resemblance to the customs of the old Greeks and Romans and even to those which still prevail in seques- tered parts of France. Here it is the girl's father who exacts a wedding por- tion, a sum of about 8, for which the bridegroom has generally to rely upon the advances of his friends. Often, too, the young man has not a house for his bride, in which caso his friends set to work and build one, no very difficult matter. On the wedding day the bride is led through tho villages in the mounted on a mule and escorted by friends and relations, who shout and fire guns again and again. The various householders hasten forth to offer her a sieveful of beans, nuts" or dried figs. Of these she takes a handful, which she kisses and then replaces in the sieve. All the offerings arc collected in sacks by the old women of the procession as contributions to tho young people's lar- der. At the houso tho girl's hands are' washed "with liquid butter. Then they give her some fresh eggs, which she breaks on the mule's head and inside the unhappy animal's ears, thereby,, it is believed, any evil designs against her and her husband's happiness. Beforo entering the house she drinks milk, fresh and sour, and also water, and scatters over her shoulder a handful of barley, wheat and salt for the good of the family. The husband then approaches her and fires a pistol above her head to signify that thenceforward he has tho power of life oid death over her. Not he makes the symbol even more em- phatic by firing into her headdress and setting her aflame. This done, little re- mains except for tho youth to lift the lady in his arms and carry her bodily into his house. All tho Year Round. A Maid of All Work Adjective. I inquired of the head mistress of a girls' school why she so frequently made use of the adjective 4 snice. ' ' She replied, "Because it is such a useful maid of all work adjective and saves one the trou- ble of thinking!" "Then you teach your girls to be inaccurate?" "I don't think it is being inaccurate. The word in most cases expresses my meaning better than any other. ' ' A relative of mine reproved one of her nieces for her liberal use of "awfully jolly." The young lady re- plied: "Oh aunt; do not deprive me of that awfully jolly expression If I were deprived of it,-- shouldn't know what to say. " The frequent use of the expletive "you know" was justified to me on the ground that it keeps the listener's at- tention awake. The fashionable novel presses into its service these flowers of speech. In Mr. Norris' "Countess Radna" a young gen- tleman thus addresses a young lady, "I'm so awfully sorry that you are going to desert us. " ' 'I'm awfully sor- ry to have to go, " replied the girl com- posedly, "and my parents will be aw- fully sorry to see me. " Of this young lady's two lovers the author himself declares in the same chapter (.24) that one was much "nicer" than the other. In chapter 37 the nicer one, in declining an imitation, says, "3ftanks awfully, but I'm can't." Notes and Queries. afraid I Killing1 Crocodiles. "There are two ways of killing croc- odiles," writes an nt of India. "One is by shooting with a rifle, but the most satisfactoiy way of dealing with them, besides being far the most sport- ing, is to bait a good large hook with a bird or small animal and fasten it by a chain to a good long rope, the end of which is firmly picketed, the rope being coiled and the bait laid in shallow wa- ter. There must be lots of slack line, as the crocodile doe3 not swallow anything at once, but seizes it and takes it into deep water to gorge. A number of lines may be laid and looked up in tho morn- ing or cool of the evening. When hook- ed, it will take a good many men to haul a crocodile out, and as he resents the operation and can uso his tail as well as his jaws one or two sportsmen will find considerable entertainment m dispatching him with spears. Some croc odiles grow to an enormous size, and their maws always contain round white stones, and often trinkets, the relics of inside passengers. The writer assisted at tho death of a not large 'snubnose' which had six women's rings in her. " Badminton Library. A Sanger Signal. "I found a queer specimen today, " said the policeman to the reporter. The points popped into the reporter's eyes. "Old fellow drunk m the alley, " con tinued the officer. 1 'I noticed him go in and watched him. He found a comfort able place and laid down on it, then took a placard out from under his coat and hung it around his neck. " "What was on the placard?" asked the reporter as the officer stopped with the evident intention of having him ask the question so he could spring the an- swer on him. " 'Handle this with care. ' " And the officer It is loaded. laughed as if a lot were sometimes a happy one. Detroit Free Press. Ugliness.

Its Carious Formation In the Fall Bay of July Sob. Two solid bodies, one yellow, sulphur, the other black, carbon, unite under cer- tain circumstances to form a colorless liquid called sulphide of carbon, which must be handled with much precaution on account of its great explosive prop- erty. The soluble property of sulphide of carbon renders it valuable to take spots off of garments. If its odor is more disagreeable than that of benzine or turpentine, it has at least the advan- tage of being dispelled quickly in conse- quence of the prompt evaporation of the liquid. There is nothing equal to it to take off spots of paint on clothes. It does not do it; however, without creat- ing great fear in persons who uso it for the first time, for they see on the very place where, to their gre.at pleasure, the paint had disappeared a large white spot, the nature of which isIJiard for them to define, and the more fiey brush the more unsightly and the larger that white spot grows. Is then the garment lost? No, for fortunately after a few moments the spot melts away never to show again. Ifc was snow and nothing mora The sulphide of carbon in evapo- rating takes heat from tho cloth and surrounding air, and the result of that is a sudden lowering of temperature suf- ficient to freeze, the vapor of the atmos-pher- a Without operating on your clothes you may make the experiment in the following way: Fill a small vial with sulphide of carbon, taking great care to do it far from all flame or heated stove. Then close the bottle with a cork stopper through which you have previously bored a small hole. In this hole place a piece of blotting paper made up into a small roll. The paper must reach to the bot- tom of the bottle and about an inch above the cork. Within 15 minutes you will see the outside of this paper cover- ed with snow, the quantity of which gradually increases. The liquid has risen through the pores of the paper as the oil of a lamp through the wick. When it gets to the open air, it evaporates, and the water contained in the surrounding atmosphere, being brought to a temper- ature below 32 degrees, has been frozen. If you divide the paper outside of tho bottle into several pieces, you obtain flowers and most charming effects. Yon may make the experiment in summer and in the full rays of the sun. The re- sult will be obtained then more prompt- ly, evaporation being more abundant. St Louis Post-Dispatc- h. Moths. Dr. Aldricks of,' Kentucky is an en- thusiastic entomologist When asked for some information on the subject he has made a specialty of, he said: "To study the habits of, the moth family you must live and grow up with them. The finest varieties fly by night, and it is with some difficulty that they are cap- tured. The usual way is to go out with a hand net and a pot of stale beer, sweetened with a quantity of molasses or sugar. A dash of this mixture on the bark of the tree, whose leaves the moths feed upon, is the bait which lures them to death. As soon as they light the net is sprung over them, and later on they are asphyxiated by being dropped in an etherized jar,, after which they are carefully mounted and labeled. I have a house built especially for their prop- agation and filled with leaves of their favorite tree. With the caterpillars crawling to the right and left of me I spend many a night watching their hab- its from a rudo cot in one corner of tho building. It is quite a profitable busi ness, besides being unusually instruct- ive. Some of the largest varieties are the size of a humming bird, and the rarest kinds, when properly mounted, easily bring $25. The Smithsonian in- stitution at Washington before the fire of several years ago, had one of the finest entomological collections in the world. " Philadelphia Press. The Color of Animals. There is a connection between the color and character of animals. Al- though much of the subject is veiled in considerable obscurity, as a general rule it may be stated that vivid, conspicu- ous coloring accompanies strength, cour- age and often ferocity. The black or red hair and the ruddy skin indicate carbon or iron somewhat in excess, a sanguine temperament, rapidity of thought and action and courage frequently bordering on rashness. In the brute creation it is rather character that has modified color in the courso of the survival of the fit- test The timid animal, bird or fish pos- sessing the most neutral coloring lived longest and left most offspring and so gradually tho conspicuous members of the family were eliminated. This neu- tral coloring as well as color that changes for protective purposes is the external characteristic of shyness and timidity, alertness of sense, keenness of vision and scent and swiftness rather than strength of limb. Pittsburg Dis- patch. Primitive Xames. . The consternation which some bota- nists have raised in pressing the duty of abandoning many universally accepted plant names and adopting for general use more primitive ones is spreading to other departments of learning. It is found that the whole English language is in the same unfortunate condition as the language of botany. It is proposed to abandon "thinks," "walks," "lis- tens," "freezes," etc, for "thinketh, " 'walketh, ' ' 'listeneth, " ' 'freezeth, '' eta, as having a much prior claim to our regard.

A jealous wizard with whitened tresses Beheld a maiden with yellow hair, And seized her form in his frosty fingers, And bore her far to his icy lair. He bound her fast in a sleep enchanted. And hid her deep in a grave of gloom. Till over the purple seas came sailing A slender prince, with a pale green plume. From the withered grass and earth above her He brushed the wreaths of the snow aside And slew the wizard, whose name was Win- ter, And she rose from the tomb to be bis bride. Look! There she stands by the broken trellis, Where budding sprays of the ivy cling, For the captive maid was the golden crocus: Her gallant lover, the prince, is Spring! Minna Irving in Worthington's Magazine. Venetian Mirror. The beauty and almost absolute per- fection characterizing the mirrors pro- duced in the manufactories of Venice are mainly due, it is said, to the pecul- iar solution applied to the surface. Pre- liminary to this application the glass is thoroughly cleaned with wet whiting, then washed with distilled water and prepared for the silver with a sensitiz- ing solution of tin, which is well rinsed off immediately before its removal to the silvering table, and tho latter be- ing raised to the proper temperature the glass is laid and the silvering solu- tion at onca poured over it before tho heat of tho table has time to dry any part of the surfaco of tho glass. The so- lution used is prepared as follows: In one-ha- lf liter of distilled water 100 grains of nitrate of silver are dissolved, to this being added 02 grains of liquid ammonia of 0.88 specific gravity. The mixture is filtered and made up to eight liters with distilled water, and 7 5-- 10 grams of tartario acid dissolved in 30 grams of water are mixed with the so- lution. About 2 5-- 10 liters are poured over the glass meter to be silvered, the metal immediately commencing to de- posit on the glass, which is maintained at about 104 degrees F., and in a little more than a half hour a continuous coat- ing of silver is formed. After careful willing with chamois the surface is treated a second time with a solution like tho first, but containing a double quantity of tartaric acid. New York Sun. The Oldest Grapevine. The oldest grapevine in the country was indeed interesting. One growing near this, which was known to be more than 80 years old, died finally of good old age and was purchased and trans- ported in its entirety to the Chicago fair. This one is 47 to 50 years of age and hale and hearty yet At the base it is 52 inches in circumference. It grows straight, up for about 3 feet, then di- vides into six branches, and at this point is 5 feet in circumference. At a height of perhaps 7 feet it spreads itself in all directions over an immense arbor covering a space by actual measurement of 75 by 06 feet It bears in one season 6,500 pounds of tho purple mission grape, of which no use is made except as it is eaten and given away by its owner to any one who will take it. Santa Barbara Cor. Troy Times. One of the Delights of life. When old Kaiser Wilhelm was still Prince of Prussia, he had one day at Babelsberg, near Potsdam, his beautiful raid ever favorite residence, a visit from that princo among landscape gardeners, ITursfc Hermann von Puckler-Muska- u, who somewhat bluntly expressed his disappointment at the slow rate of prog- ress in certain improvements in the grounds improvements which he had himself suggested on the occasion of a previous visit. The future emperor plead- ed his limited means. "But does your royal highness never borrow money?" queried Prince Puckler, evidently much a mazed. ' 'Nover, my dear prince, '' was tho smiling reply. "Then your royal highness has never tasted life's greatest delight to wit, the pleasure of finding yourself able to pay your debts, after all!" Chicago Tribune. Cheap locomotion. Dutoguard has been informed that cabs are going to befitted with automat- ic distance counters, and that the fare for the first kilometer is to be 75 cents, and 25 cents for each succeeding kilo- meter. "Capital!" he said, tapping his fore- head, as if inspired with a happy thought ' 'Next time I have to go any distance I shall walk the first kilometer and take a cab for the rest of the jour- ney. ' ' Journal de Vienue. A complaint comes from, Russia of the scarcity of physicians throughout the empire. The number of medical men is only one in 6,000 of the entire population.

A KABYLE MARRIAGE.

The Ceremony Is Complicated ud WindsUp With an Exciting Incident.

The wedding ceremony among theKabyles is interesting because of its

resemblance to the customsof the old Greeks and Romans and evento those which still prevail in seques-

tered parts of France. Here it is thegirl's father who exacts a wedding por-tion, a sum of about 8, for which thebridegroom has generally to rely uponthe advances of his friends. Often, too,the young man has not a house for hisbride, in which caso his friends set towork and build one, no very difficultmatter.

On the wedding day the bride is ledthrough tho villages in the

mounted on a mule and escortedby friends and relations, who shout andfire guns again and again. The varioushouseholders hasten forth to offer her asieveful of beans, nuts" or dried figs. Ofthese she takes a handful, which shekisses and then replaces in the sieve.All the offerings arc collected in sacksby the old women of the procession ascontributions to tho young people's lar-der.

At the houso tho girl'shands are' washed "with liquid butter.Then they give her some fresh eggs,which she breaks on the mule's headand inside the unhappy animal's ears,thereby,, it is believed,any evil designs against her and herhusband's happiness. Beforo enteringthe house she drinks milk, fresh andsour, and also water, and scatters overher shoulder a handful of barley, wheatand salt for the good of the family.

The husband then approaches her andfires a pistol above her head to signifythat thenceforward he has tho power oflife oid death over her. Not

he makes the symbol even more em-

phatic by firing into her headdress andsetting her aflame. This done, little re-

mains except for tho youth to lift thelady in his arms and carry her bodilyinto his house. All tho Year Round.

A Maid of All Work Adjective.

I inquired of the head mistress of agirls' school why she so frequently madeuse of the adjective 4 snice. ' ' She replied,"Because it is such a useful maid of allwork adjective and saves one the trou-ble of thinking!" "Then you teach yourgirls to be inaccurate?" "I don't thinkit is being inaccurate. The word in mostcases expresses my meaning better thanany other. ' ' A relative of mine reprovedone of her nieces for her liberal use of"awfully jolly." The young lady re-

plied: "Oh aunt; do not deprive me ofthat awfully jolly expression If I weredeprived of it,-- shouldn't know whatto say. "

The frequent use of the expletive"you know" was justified to me on theground that it keeps the listener's at-

tention awake.The fashionable novel presses into its

service these flowers of speech. In Mr.Norris' "Countess Radna" a young gen-tleman thus addresses a young lady,"I'm so awfully sorry that you aregoing to desert us. " ' 'I'm awfully sor-

ry to have to go, " replied the girl com-posedly, "and my parents will be aw-fully sorry to see me. "

Of this young lady's two lovers theauthor himself declares in the samechapter (.24) that one was much "nicer"than the other. In chapter 37 the nicerone, in declining an imitation, says,"3ftanks awfully, but I'mcan't." Notes and Queries.

Killing1 Crocodiles."There are two ways of killing croc-

odiles," writes an nt of India."One is by shooting with a rifle, but themost satisfactoiy way of dealing withthem, besides being far the most sport-ing, is to bait a good large hook with abird or small animal and fasten it bya chain to a good long rope, the end ofwhich is firmly picketed, the rope beingcoiled and the bait laid in shallow wa-ter. There must be lots of slack line, asthe crocodile doe3 not swallow anythingat once, but seizes it and takes it intodeep water to gorge. A number of linesmay be laid and looked up in tho morn-ing or cool of the evening. When hook-ed, it will take a good many men tohaul a crocodile out, and as he resentsthe operation and can uso his tail aswell as his jaws one or two sportsmenwill find considerable entertainment mdispatching him with spears. Some crocodiles grow to an enormous size, andtheir maws always contain round whitestones, and often trinkets, the relics ofinside passengers. The writer assistedat tho death of a notlarge 'snubnose' which had six women'srings in her. " Badminton Library.

MAKE YOUR OWN SNOW.

Its Carious Formation In the Fall Bay ofJuly Sob.

Two solid bodies, one yellow, sulphur,the other black, carbon, unite under cer-

tain circumstances to form a colorlessliquid called sulphide of carbon, whichmust be handled with much precautionon account of its great explosive prop-erty. The soluble property of sulphideof carbon renders it valuable to takespots off of garments. If its odor ismore disagreeable than that of benzineor turpentine, it has at least the advan-tage of being dispelled quickly in conse-quence of the prompt evaporation of theliquid. There is nothing equal to it totake off spots of paint on clothes. Itdoes not do it; however, without creat-ing great fear in persons who uso it forthe first time, for they see on the veryplace where, to their gre.at pleasure, thepaint had disappeared a large whitespot, the nature of which isIJiard forthem to define, and the more fiey brushthe more unsightly and the larger thatwhite spot grows. Is then the garmentlost? No, for fortunately after a fewmoments the spot melts away never toshow again. Ifc was snow and nothingmora The sulphide of carbon in evapo-rating takes heat from tho cloth andsurrounding air, and the result of thatis a sudden lowering of temperature suf-ficient to freeze, the vapor of the atmos-pher- a

Without operating on your clothesyou may make the experiment in thefollowing way: Fill a small vial withsulphide of carbon, taking great care todo it far from all flame or heated stove.Then close the bottle with a cork stopperthrough which you have previously boreda small hole. In this hole place a pieceof blotting paper made up into a smallroll. The paper must reach to the bot-tom of the bottle and about an inchabove the cork. Within 15 minutes youwill see the outside of this paper cover-ed with snow, the quantity of whichgradually increases. The liquid has risenthrough the pores of the paper as the oilof a lamp through the wick. When itgets to the open air, it evaporates, andthe water contained in the surroundingatmosphere, being brought to a temper-ature below 32 degrees, has been frozen.If you divide the paper outside of thobottle into several pieces, you obtainflowers and most charming effects. Yonmay make the experiment in summerand in the full rays of the sun. The re-sult will be obtained then more prompt-ly, evaporation being more abundant.St Louis Post-Dispatc- h.

Moths.Dr. Aldricks of,' Kentucky is an en-

thusiastic entomologist When askedfor some information on the subject hehas made a specialty of, he said: "Tostudy the habits of, the moth family youmust live and grow up with them. Thefinest varieties fly by night, and it iswith some difficulty that they are cap-tured. The usual way is to go out witha hand net and a pot of stale beer,sweetened with a quantity of molassesor sugar. A dash of this mixture onthe bark of the tree, whose leaves themoths feed upon, is the bait which luresthem to death. As soon as they light thenet is sprung over them, and later onthey are asphyxiated by being droppedin an etherized jar,, after which they arecarefully mounted and labeled. I havea house built especially for their prop-agation and filled with leaves of theirfavorite tree. With the caterpillarscrawling to the right and left of me Ispend many a night watching their hab-its from a rudo cot in one corner of thobuilding. It is quite a profitable business, besides being unusually instruct-ive. Some of the largest varieties arethe size of a humming bird, and therarest kinds, when properly mounted,easily bring $25. The Smithsonian in-

stitution at Washington before the fireof several years ago, had one of thefinest entomological collections in theworld. " Philadelphia Press.

The Color of Animals.There is a connection between the

color and character of animals. Al-though much of the subject is veiled inconsiderable obscurity, as a general ruleit may be stated that vivid, conspicu-ous coloring accompanies strength, cour-age and often ferocity. The black or redhair and the ruddy skin indicate carbonor iron somewhat in excess, a sanguinetemperament, rapidity of thought andaction and courage frequently borderingon rashness. In the brute creation it israther character that has modified colorin the courso of the survival of the fit-

test The timid animal, bird or fish pos-sessing the most neutral coloring livedlongest and left most offspring and sogradually tho conspicuous members ofthe family were eliminated. This neu-tral coloring as well as color thatchanges for protective purposes is theexternal characteristic of shyness andtimidity, alertness of sense, keenness ofvision and scent and swiftness ratherthan strength of limb. Pittsburg Dis-patch.

Primitive Xames.. The consternation which some bota-nists have raised in pressing the duty ofabandoning many universally acceptedplant names and adopting for generaluse more primitive ones is spreading toother departments of learning. It isfound that the whole English languageis in the same unfortunate condition asthe language of botany. It is proposedto abandon "thinks," "walks," "lis-tens," "freezes," etc, for "thinketh, "'walketh, ' ' 'listeneth, " ' 'freezeth, ' '

In sbiftered comers and shady plaewThe wasting snows of the wimter lia,

But there is a token of coming rosesIn the tender pink of the ssnset skr.

Above the dusk of the windy forestThe young March moon is silvery cold.

Come, love, and lean on the gate beside ate.And I will tell jWa legend Old.

A jealous wizard with whitened tressesBeheld a maiden with yellow hair,

And seized her form in his frosty fingers,And bore her far to his icy lair.

He bound her fast in a sleep enchanted.And hid her deep in a grave of gloom.

Till over the purple seas came sailingA slender prince, with a pale green plume.

From the withered grass and earth aboveher

He brushed the wreaths of the snow asideAnd slew the wizard, whose name was Win-

ter,And she rose from the tomb to be bis bride.

Look! There she stands by the broken trellis,Where budding sprays of the ivy cling,

For the captive maid was the golden crocus:Her gallant lover, the prince, is Spring!

Venetian Mirror.The beauty and almost absolute per-

fection characterizing the mirrors pro-duced in the manufactories of Veniceare mainly due, it is said, to the pecul-iar solution applied to the surface. Pre-liminary to this application the glass isthoroughly cleaned with wet whiting,then washed with distilled water andprepared for the silver with a sensitiz-ing solution of tin, which is well rinsedoff immediately before its removal tothe silvering table, and tho latter be-

ing raised to the proper temperaturethe glass is laid and the silvering solu-tion at onca poured over it before thoheat of tho table has time to dry anypart of the surfaco of tho glass. The so-

lution used is prepared as follows: Inone-ha- lf liter of distilled water 100grains of nitrate of silver are dissolved,to this being added 02 grains of liquidammonia of 0.88 specific gravity. Themixture is filtered and made up to eightliters with distilled water, and 7 5-- 10

grams of tartario acid dissolved in 30grams of water are mixed with the so-

lution. About 2 5-- 10 liters are pouredover the glass meter to be silvered, themetal immediately commencing to de-

posit on the glass, which is maintainedat about 104 degrees F., and in a littlemore than a half hour a continuous coat-ing of silver is formed. After carefulwilling with chamois the surface istreated a second time with a solutionlike tho first, but containing a doublequantity of tartaric acid. New YorkSun.
