in spite of the fact that Natalie ami
Milan resorted to no end of intrigue to

The czar finally consented and the for

in Servla that she does not like to ap

“Packing Off of Widows.”
A pastime which obtains among the
farm classes of Corea, known as the
"packing off of widows,’' consists of a
raid by some disconsolate widower and
hla friends on some village known to
contain a young widow, the forcible
abduction of the lady in question and
her marriage to the widower. An in
stance of this kind has recently come
to our notice. A widower living in
one of the villages of Kangwlia with
eleven friends went to a hamlet close
to the walls of Kangwha City, where
a widow lived and seized and carried
off, after somewhat of a battle, a young
lady. It so happened, however, that
they had mistaken the house, and un
fortunately got hold of the wrong lady.
Early the next morning an indignant
posse came in pursuit, but the men
who had committed the dastardly deed
succeeded in eluding them. The young
lady, however, was rescued, and after
the house of the widower and Its con-1
tents had been completely demolished
she was escorted home in triumph by
her husband and hla friends.—Kobe
