Odd Wedding Custom.
In northern Africa they have a way
of providing for the wedding of their
daughters that is interesting. When
the guests arrive a man at the door
receives the pence they give, and
writes it down in a book. This means
that when any of these guests have
a wedding the host will give each of
them Just what they gave him. Aa
it is, the guests pay for the wedding,
and each one has either already re
ceived as much as he gives or will
receive It later on.

Perhaps "Eye-Witness" knows the
names of those silent ghoBts, though
he has not yet written about them in
his dispatches, owing to the severity
of the censor. He knows, I am sure,
that among those who watched the
destruction of Cloth Hall were Sii

and many other knights and squires,
whom," as old Frolssart said, "I can
not now name."
The ancestors of British officers who
are now fighting in Flanders rode un
der their banners over the flat marsh
lands, they banqueted in many of the
grand halls which now He in ruins un
der the German eagle, they stormed
at the gates of many towns which are
now filled with British soldiers, their
lances glittered down many of the
roads where the winter sun now glints
upon the lances of French dragoons;
and with the chivalry of medieval
knighthood they did many acts ol
courtesy and valor and heroic adven
ture upon the same ground where the
men under Sir John French have up
held the old traditions of their breed
with no less courage. Also, according
to the way of war they, ravaged the
countryside through which they
passed, burned farmsteads and peas
ants' cots, swept It clean of all food,
looted Its treasures, and laid it waste,
so that there was desolation and fam
ine where the English army had
passed.
It was Lord Henry Spencer, bishop
of Norwich, who undertook the siege
of Ypres in the days when English
arrows sung with a shriller note than
the modern shell.
"Day after day," writes Frolssart
'the assault continued, but the place
still held out. At last the English, find
lng that they could not take the town
by storm, and that they had expended
all their artillery, resolved to have a
quantity of faggots collected with
which to fill up the ditches, so that
they might advance and fight hand
to-hand with the garrison, undermine
the walls, and. by throwing them
down, effect an entrance."
Every road and dyke round Ypres
was moistened with English blood In
those old days, and now, fighting side
by side instead of against the French
and the Flemings, English blood drips
down to the same soil, which is mixed
with the dust of heroic bones, of Eng
llsh arrowheads, of steel breastplates
and richly chased casque, and of all
the panoply of medieval knighthood.

London Chronicle.
The Spaniard In Mexico.
When Cortez landed at Vera Cruz
and in honor of the day being "Good
Friday," gave the place the sacred
name, he set the style of Mexico for
the land to be called after saints and
sacred things rather than people. The
glory of the spirit of Crusader ap
pealed more to him than perpetuating
his own name as the cognomen of
country. Following in the wake of
this warlike Spaniard came troops of
friars, some of them pious and truly
noble, while others were no more hu
man than the average type of men of
that day and generation. A Catholic
priest, Hidalgo, occupies a prominent
place In the calendar of the country i
liberators; while dreams and vlslonB

WHEN HUSBAND HAD MADE HIM
SELF FAMOUS.
But Now, Despite Her Pleas, He Does
Not See Why He Should Take Her
Back His Concise Explana
tion of His Reasons.
They had been deeply In love when
they married. That was ten years
ago. Much had happened In ten years,
and in their case they had drifted
apart At first there were little
scraps, mended with a kiss and a few
loving words. By degrees the rift be
came larger. She wanted the com
forts, If not the luxuries of life, and
told him many times of the, motor cars
and theater boxes she could have had
if she had married Tom, Dick or Harry
Instead of him. Once he used to.
weave stories of a tomorrow, but to
morrow never came, and finally the
friction became too much for him.
"You are never satisfied," he said
after one of their quarrels, according
to a New York letter to the Cincin
nati Enquirer. "You have no belief
in me. Perhaps I don't amount to
much. We don't get on. You remain
here and I'll find a place for myself.
I'll let you have enough to keep you
going $25 a week."
She agreed to this joyfully, and in a
few days he removed to a furnished
room not many blocks away. Each
week she received an envelope with
the stipulated amount In it. Other
wise they lived as Btrangers.
The man had only left himself
enough out of his salary to keep him
self alive. There waB no overplus for
amusements, and his chief recreation
was reading at the public library.
One evening, having finished his
evening paper, he took up a pencil and
began to draw on the edge. He had
a sense of humor and was making a
comic picture of something he had
lust read. He was fond of drawing
and had given much time to it before
his marriage. Then he took a sheet of
paper and drew several comic
sketches, and they amuBed him bo
much that Just for fun he sent one
to a comic paper. It was accepted
and the editor asked for more. He
kept on drawing, and in three years
had attained a reputation under the
name of "Scorn." Meanwhile his wife
lived on in the old house, perfectly
contented and only slightly curious
when her allowance was gradually in
creased. When one day the envelope
contained fifty dollars she decided to
go after him. She called at the place
where he had been employed when
they parted and asked to see him. The
clerk grinned.
"He left over a year ago.
She rushed to the house where he
had roomed, "He left over a year
ago," she was informed. Still the fifty
dollars arrived regularly.
In California lives a thin man who
Is something of a cynic. His reputa
tion as a comic artist is established
and money comes easily to him. Once
a pretty woman asked him why he
lived alone.
"I have a wife," he told her. "I left
her because she didn't believe In me,
I am never going back to her. It hurts
a man to be tied a bundle of pessim
ism In petticoats."
"And did she love you?" the pretty
woman asked.
"I hardly think so."
Once his agents wrote to him that
she wanted to know where he lived.
Tell her." he wrote, "that I am In
the Town of Tomorrow."
And she understood.
Want Market Commission.
California women are anxious to es
tablish a national marketing commis
sion as suggested by the United States
delegate to the International Institute
of Agriculture in Rome. According to
this plan, the president of the United
States will appoint the national mar-
president of an Influential chamber of
keting commission, consisting of the
commerce, the mayor of three of the
largest cities in the United States,
three members of the leading mail
order and department stores, a leading
railroad man. a parcel post man, a
leading banker, a leading workingman,
two congressmen, a senator, making
fourteen in all, and in addition to this
fifteen farmers from various sections
of the United States, making twenty
nine members of the commission.
There would also be state commis
sions, appointed by the governors, and
bo on down to township commissions
There would be places In each town
and city for sales, and farm produce
would be put on sale at different hours
in the week.
