A wedding without a ring seems in congruous, but In some parts of Spain no ring is used. After the ceremony the bridegroom moves the flower in bis bride's hair from left to right, for In those districts to wear n rose above your right ear is to proclaim yourself a wife. Soothing the Bride. "1 told Maud that Jack was simply crnzy to marry her. and she took of fense." "Why was tnnt?" "Don't know, unless It was that when I wild It they had Just been married."

"Speedwell" Sailing from NORTH BEND Friday Noon, July 10th -'"THE ONLY WAY" Bandon Warehouse Compnnyt (iencral Aenls ALGERIANS AWE LlARl They My Tell the Truth fct TlmM, but You Are Never Sure. t The chief fault of tho native Alge rians seems to be a certain predilection for lying. It appears to be nn injunc tive desire to deceive, not bo much for tho sake of profit as for tho sake of de ception. Albert Edwards, in "Tho Bor bnry Coast." tells us that ho asked his French host why one of his workmen wore green braid on his turbans, slnco In Persia only those who Lave mado tho pllgrlmago to Mecca nro thus at Urcd. "Mohammed!" my host called. Tho tall, dignified nntivo loft his plow and came over to us. "Have you been to Mecca?" M. Gar det asked in Arabic. "No, Sldl," tho Arab said and -went back to his work. "Ho Bays 'No,' " M. Garde t translated to me. "But like as not he has been thero sir times. If they would always Ho you could understand them. But sometimes they tell tho truth. Perhaps ho hasn't been there. If I should ask six of my workmen about It three would say that Mohammed hnd been to Mecca, three would say ho hadn't" So I stopped asking my host ques tions about the Arabs. But in all tho time I have been In Algeria I have never found a Frenchman who felt dif ferently nbout it. Guy do Maupassant, whoso eyes pierced so deeply through tho lies of French life, could not fathom tho Arabs. "They nro incomprehensi ble," ho writes. "They He." THE WORLD'S WATER POWER. Forces That May Be Utilized When Our Coal Is All Gone. The following figures may prove ot interest to those fearing tho exhaus tion of the world's coal supply, says Uio American Machinist In a sum mary of the water power of. the world thV possible horsepower of France la estimated nt 4,500,000, of which only 800,000 is utilized. About an equal amount of power is available in Italy, but ouly 30,000 horsepower Is utilized. Falls of 10,000 horsepower are abun dant in the Alps. The estimate in Switzerland Is in complete, but ubout 300,000 horsepower is in use, Germany has 700,000 horse power available, with 100,000 applied. Norway has 000.000 horsepower avail able, with a largo part already devel oped. In Sweden there Is 703,000 horse power available. The resources of Russia are estimat ed nt 11,000,000 horsepower, of which only 85,000 lias been developed. Tho United States is credited with 1,500,000 horsepower, while Japan has 1,000,000, of which 70.000 has been exploited, la India 50,000 horsepower has already been developed, mostly at a consider able distance from any Industrial cen ter. In Great Britain thero Is 70,000 horsepower already utilized, and on equal amount in Spain. ' Promoting the Janitor. They were joint owners of an apart ment house and one day the junior partner sought his colleague in some trepidation. "The- Janitor wants $10 more a month or he'll leave. I bate to give up the money, but wo can't spare him." The senior partner disappeared and returned in a few moments. "It's all right," said ho, "I've Bads fled him, and it didn't cost us any thing." "IIow's Uiatr "Tho Janitor la now the superintend ent." "Good work!" declared .the Junior partner. "But why didn't you make him superintendent In tho first place?" "Because," answered tho senior mem ber, "I knew ho'd want a promotion eventually. Every man wants a pro motion some tluio and, to my mind, a good man deserves one." Judge. Smoky Cities Also Foggy. Tho relation between smoke and fog Is ably set forth In a bulleUn Issued bf the Mellon Institute of Industrial Bo search. University of Pittsburgh, and written, by Dr. Herbert n. Kimball, professor of meteorology, United States weather bureau. Ha sums up tho mat ter by saying: "City fogs aro more persistent than country fogs, principally because of their increased density due to the smoko that accumulates in them. "In consequence of tho above there nro fewer hours of sunshine in the cities than in the surrounding country, "The sunshine is less Intense in tho city than In the country, the light of short wnve lengths, or the blue light Buffering tho greater depletion."

"Bright aa a dollar, patient an' a hard worker." 1 "Why, he can't hold a Job fer more'n a week, an' I hear his family ain't got enougu to live on." "Sho; that may be, but what's that got to do with it? You see that meer schaum pipe o' hls'n? Colored It him self. You see Unit thore hoss"halt watch chain he wenrs?

Cleve land Plain' Dealer. Pretence ef Mind. Colonel Cody ("Buffalo Bill") once told tho following story of one of bis comrades of the plains known as Wild Bill: "A man who nursed u grudge agulnst Wild Bill swore to kill him. He stood concealed In a doorway, .stepped out and confronted He'll as the latter pass ed and leveled a pistol nt bis bead. " 'I've got you uow, Wild Bill,' he said, 'and I'm going to kill you, but I'll give yon one minute to pray!' "'Well,' said Bill with an easy mile, 'it does look like the jig's up!' "Suddenly Bill peered over the man's shoulder and waved a deprecatory hand. " 'Don't hit him, Andy!' he said. "The man wheeled to protect him self from the supposed enemy in his rear, lie gazed into empty space. There was no Andy nor any one else behind him, and before he could' turn round again Wild Bill had killed him." The Wild Boar. The wild boar is a most courageous animal. The element of luck couuts for a great; deal in pig sticking,' as in most other forms of sport, and It often happens that the foremost, sportsman who by dint of hard riding or thanks to tho fastest horse has come up with tho quarry Is deprived of the coveted honor of "first spear" by a sudden "Jink" or turn of the pig. The boar, In spite of his clumsy appearance, is not only poAesscd of a great turn of speed, but Is extraordinarily ncUve. He will turn and twist like a hare, putting Very obstacle In the shape of, bushes, rocks, w4ter, etc.. between himself and his, pursuers, but all the time mak ing for tbe nearest patch of Jungle and safety. The pace after a pig Is faster than the, best of runs with hounds, but Is sooner over. Canned Mueio In Scotia. Early in. the last century nn old Far farshlre lady Installed in the bedroom Corridor of her castle an automuUc organ. It was her delight of a morn ing to wake her guests with its strains. But It was not the delight of one of them, Miss Sophia Johnstone of Hilton, to be so awakened, and sho said so. "Ye dluun like the music? Ye shouldna say that, Sophy," said the hostess. "Ye'll no' win to heaven an' ye dlnua take pleasure lu music. It's to bo all music thero, ye know." '"Deed," said the Incorrigible one, "an If heaven's a place wl' auld wives playlu' on hand organs at 0 o'clock in tho moruln' It's no the place I tak it for, nor yet the place 1 want to bo In." New Witness. Handel In Dublin. There was a period of his life in which Handel, tbe famous composer, retired from London In a fit of dis gust Ho went to Dublin, and It waa there In tbe Dublin Music hall that his great masterpiece, "The Messiah," was produced. "The performance," writes D. A. Chart "was for the bene fit of Mercer's hospital. In order to provide room for a large audience ladles were requested to lay asldo their hoops and gentlemen their swords. By this meaus an audience of 700 was crowded into the space, and tho con cert realized 400." Oblong Houses. Square and oblorg houses are cheap er to build than odd shaped structures. The oblong house hi cheaper than the square. Timbers come in certain lengths, and the hiuse that U long and nnrmn tnkon Ii'im flmhpr tlinn one that Is square that is to. say. tho tnate'rijP cuts to better advantage in tbe obleg house than In tbe square house; also less labor ts Involved In the making.
