HOW WOMEN GOT THE RICHT.

Tradition Gtvei the Crodlt of Leap Year Custom* to St. Put rick. The words of Thomas a'Kempis, "Man proposes," suffer impeachment each fourth year, when, according to a mythical custom, the right to the matrimonial propositions is extended, though not surrendered, to the gentler sex, says the Washington Star. The leap year 1896 should be accepted by the hopeful maidens who are determined to "make hay while the sun shines," for there will not be another such opportunity for eight years. Once each century, with certain exceptions, the leap year is omitted. This extra-long year was the device of Julius Caesar, who undertook to remedy an evil which had grown up through the practice of the

Roman priests of lengthening or shortening the calendar year at pleasure. But his proclamation that a day be added to February each fourth year was misunderstood, and each third year the increase was made, so that gradually there came to be a discrepancy between the calendar and the astronomical year, which was partially corrected by Augustus in 8 B. C. Pope Gregory in 1577 undertook to straighten out the calendar and brought "things out right by annulling ten days. He ordained that the four-year rule be strictly observed throughout the Christian world, and practically provided for a fractional discrepancy by eliminating the leap year in all but one in four of the century years. In other words, by virtue

of the leap-year system the gain would be too great in a century, and thus 1770 had but 365 days, also 1880, and 1900 will be of the same length. The year 2000 will be a yeap year, also 2400. In short, the same rule of division by four that applies to the ordinary twenty years to place the extra day is also urged with the century years.

Thus the twentieth-century woman starts on her career with a handicap. She must forego the privilege conferred upon her by the custom that is believed to have had its origin during the first century, when St. Patrick was Christianizing Ireland and incidentally driving out the vermin. The legend runs that, having accomplished this most praiseworthy feat, the holy man was walking along the shores of Lough Leagh, when he was addressed by St. Bridget, weeping because there was a mutiny in the institution over which she presided. Her charges had claimed the right "to pop the question." St. Patrick acknowledged the general justice of their demands and said he would grant the right to propose every seventh year. St. Bridget protested that her girls would never be content with such a plan, whereupon St. Patrick agreed to reduce the time to four years and offered in the bargain to select the longest year of all, leap year, as that in which women might propose. That

Identical year being provided with an extra day, St. Bridget immediately inaugurated the custom by proposing to [St. Patrick, who, of course, declined in deference to his priestly occupation.

St. Bridget protested that this was a violation of the bargain and a compromise was finally reached by which St. Patrick escaped from matrimony by giving a kiss and a silk gown, which for centuries formed the penalty paid by a man who declined a woman's proposal.

A theory which may partly account for

of course, greater efforts to be heard in regions which are swept by winds and storms than In still southern latitudes, and to be heard distinctly amid the noise and confusion of the elements words must be used which contain many consonants. Among the inhabitants of more tropical cl'mes the tendency is toward soft and musical cadence and travelers relate that in many regions of South America, such as Peru and Venezuela, where atmospheric disturbances are rare, the natives almost chant the phrases of salutation.—Exchange.

Liberal ReUclon.

A liberal in religion ip ore who keeps his heart and miDd ope to every appearance of truth and beauty, who expects new light and welcomes larger vision. Thus he is the man of progress, because, while remaining loyal to the truth he has, he looks ever for new truth, believing that the universe of God is not yet exhausted, but that there are great reservoirs of truth and life to be drawn upon for human needs.— Uev. O. J. Fairchild.

I have never had a day's sickness in my life." said a middle-aged man the other day.

What a comfort it would be," sighs some poor invalid, "to be in his place for a year or two." Yet half of the inalide wo see might be just as healthy as he, if they would only take proper care of themselves, eat proper food—aud digest it.

It's so strange that such simple things are overlooked by thoEe who want health. Food makes health.

It makes strength—and strength wards off sickness. The man who had never been sick was strong because he always digested his food, and you could become the same by helping your stomach to work aB well aB his.

It will make you strong aad healthy by making the food you eat ma^o j«u fat.
