For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local rem edies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it in curable.

A Brahmin's Daughter Must Marry Very Early or Her Reputation Suffers. The Brahmin has to get his daughter married before she attains puberty. This custom has crept into religion. The Hindoo religion strictly forbids single life for woman or man; especial ly must the woman be married. Hence there are no old maids in India. Some times one may meet an old "cranky" bachelor, who has remained unmarried because he-was too poor to . marry, or because his character was not good; but even these are seldom found except in the lower classes. If a man is . not married at the latest by his twenty fifth year his reputation suffers. It is a belief that those who have a son go to .Heaven,- ."when the son, after the death of his parents, performs the spir itual rites. However .this may ; be, whether they go to Heaven or not, .this severe .rule .tends to a strict cultivation of home life. Owing to ;this ;rule7 ;if a . .Brahmin's daughter attains puberty before mar riage the father. is .disgraced;" he loses his caste and no one .will marry the girl. Thus when a poor man has more than one daughter it is a misfortune for him. The Hindoo father vhimself has to find out a suitable " husband " for his daughter, so he goes to a gentle man who has' a son: He first makes in quiries about the family, the property, the health and education of the boy. Then he asks the father of the boy to marry his son to his daughter. The father of the boy asks for dowry, and the amount of this is fixed according to the means of the man who asks for it and not of the man who gives it; that is to say, if the father of the boy is very rich he asks thousands of dollars. Hence the Hindoo father of a girl has to spend much for the marriage of his daughter, for lie always . wishes to see her married into a rich family. , A PATRIOT'S PETTICOAT. And. How It Helped to Drive off the Brit ish Soldiers. In a letter to the New York Times David S. Turner, of New Dorp, S. I., says: "During the war of 1812, when Commodore Hardy attacked Stoning ton, the people there had no military defense except -onefold" canhonwhich! had been used . f or , firing salutes. , At Groton, oh the bank of the Thames, opposite to New London, lived Mrs. .Bailey in her own house, in the fall vigor of womanhood and patriotism for , her country, who learning of the attack, immediately mounted her horse and. started for. that place, to take part in the affray. . Upon ';her arrival there the fight to prevent the landing of the Hardy force had already commenced, in which the old cahnon was play ing . a ' conspicuous part, - but soon ' it was found that .the old gun must be given up for want of cartridges or ma terial to make, them.: It was at this critical moment that Mrs. .Bailey , ar rived, . and, ... upon' "understanding .the matter, gave instant .notice that she could supply the needful, and. then and there stripped off her flannel petticoat, which was soon worked into cartridges. The old gun ,was kept at . work, and Commojlpre Hardy's force. went back to the fleet to report progress. : "When Gen.'1 Jackson was president and made his tour through New Eng land he crossed the river tit New Lon don, made a call upon Mrs. Bailey at her -Groton home and gave , her a cor dial handshaking and his hearty con gratulation upon ' her courageous and patriotic action upon the occasion of the battle, of. Stonington." IN NO DANGER This Young JUan's Head Would Never Get Bald. A barber out on New York avenue was cutting the long, curling, profuse locks of a young man, who has some pretensions to being literary and occa sionally poses before his friends as a great genius, says the Washington Post. With a supercilious smile and words that could be heard all over the room the young man inquired: "Say, barber, what makes a "man grow bald?" "The barber snapped his scissors once or twice and ran the comb through his beard. "Well," he answered, slowly, "if a man has got lots of brains and is a deep thinker he generally gets "bald. '. That, they say, leads to it every time."" 1 ' Several of the customers looked at the young, man's ' luxuriant crop' and smiled rather broadly. The young man, however, did not exactly see the joke. So pretty soon, when the barber was running ' his. fingers over the curly locks, he tempted fate again. -; "Say," he asked, "do you think my hair will come cm and 111 get bald?" ; r .The -man of the scissors paused re-. fleetively, and 'then, in a tone like he was delivering a judicial decision, an nounced: . . ,-. .. i "No; I don't think you stand in any danger of getting bald." j '" ' Then .the crowd laughed and the bar ber looked surprised.

'Al- : though, .in .,1817 several, shipbuilders struck at Medxord, Mass.; for a contin uous rum supply, "not till ' '1891 ' 'did strikes become frequent. Thirteen hun dred persons were idle at Fall Biver for six months in 1850. ' The railroad strike of 1886, which be gan in St. Louis, May 5, will long be remembered for its . magnitude. A union man had been discharged by the Missouri Pacific road, and the mechan ics and shopmen struck. . .This was the nominal cause. Texas, Louisiana, Mis souri, Kansas ' and ' Arkansas were largely affected, and governors of these states issued proclamations 4 ..Preceding this came , the memorable .strike of 1877 with" its immense destruc tion of life and property. The four great New York trunk lines were in the hands of the strikers from "first to last. The riots of Chicago and St. Louis were the work of tramps."
