When our ancestors had intelli gence sufficient to thoughtfully ob serve the stars and began to be able to speak of them they used the word “ star” as conveying the idea of a something which scatters light. From this same root has grown scores of words which contain the idea o f scattering, dispensing, spreading out and strewing. . The eful reader of the dictionary will notice... fBefflr in many places. “ Straws” that “ show which way the wind blows” are from the same root, because in the word is .the idea of that which is scattered or strewn. r r “ Strew” and “ stratum” are among the many children of “ star,” and even such words as “ consterna tion” and “ street” come from it. The idea is in “ consternation” through the Latin “ consternere,” to bestrew, throw down, pros trate.

The chief incident in a Chinese marriage is the arrival of the bride in her bridal clothes before the house of her chosen one. This is a de facto fulfillment o f the contract The wedding day is determined the parents of the groom. The im perial calendar names the lucky days, and on such days the so called “ red celebrations” take place, both in the city and country. The same bridal clothes may be used several times. That the chief part of a I Chinese marriage is the arrival of tbe bride at the bou»« of the groom is illustrated by the fact that the sons are often married without be ing present at their own weddings. It is not believed to be fortunate to change the wedding day when once decided. If the future husband therefore happens to be called away on the wedding day the mar- takes Place by »ending the bride to his house. The Devilfish. The devilfishes are inhabitants of warm water seas and, as a rule, do not venture from the shore very far out on the high seas. Once in awhile one is seen as far north as New York or in the Mediterranean. In United States waters they have been more frequently reported from South Carolina and the gulf states and from Lower California. They often swim in schools or shoals and have a curious habit of turning som ersanlts near the surface, sometimes leaping as high as ten feet out of the water and churning the sea into foam. If the devilfishes could live and move in the air in their mode of . progression, . they . would . probably be said to fly, for a sort of subma- rine flight is really what is accom plished. It is bv flaps of the long, winglike fins that they speed them selves along. W e a lso se rv e First Class Meals and Lunches . at All Hours 3 0 9 F IR S T S T .
