A couple in Litoh field county, Cohn., had lived together for ton years, sup posing themselves married. Uillieul lion having arisen, ono applied to the court for a divorco. Upou investiga. tion,itwas found out that they had never beon legally married. Like son eiblo poople, they pave up the jdea of a divorco, and were married. A curious custom is still in voguo in tho more northern districts of Scam dir.avia. On the occasion of the mar riage, the mother of tho bridegroom approaches the bride and lays at her feet a plate" of bread and flag root. The bride offers her future mother-in-law a part of it, but the latter declines purtaking; thus intimating that she will never live on the substunco of her tinw relative.
