Wanted.

SHOW AUTHORITY WITH me,-{ Bridegrooms in Certain Parts of Africa - ARsseit Their Mastery in No Un. , . ~ certain Manner. /On the day of a marriage in Jubaland the girl issues from her father’s JBouse surrounded by throngs of women, dancing, singing and making a great deal of noise. She is taken to the bridegroom’s hut, where he awaits her. As she passes in through the, low doorway he gives her two or three sharp cuts with a rhinoceros hide lash, to intimate that he intends to be master. - She then has to attend to the various guests who come with gifts for 'the newly married ceuple; but she ‘is not ‘alldwed to speak to them; neither does‘her misband address her. All his commands, given by signs, have to be obeyed promptly, and should the girl be slow or not understand the meaning of his gestures, she is instantly smartened up with a sharp blow from the lash. It is a point of honor that she utters no sound,. however hard she is lashed. o S T ' The husbands of a certain section of Somalis tie a rope round the bride’s wrists on the first evening of marriage, and attach the end of the rope to a branch, tightening it so that the girl’s toes only just touch the ground: they then proceed to administer a sound flogging. . But the girl never utters a cry; and, as soon as the husband has administered a good hard beating he ‘takes her down, washes and anoints her wounds, and looks after her tenderly until the' cuts heal and the stiffness passes. ‘ , lé SAW THE JOKE ON HIMSELF Charles M. Schwab Tells Good Story in Which He Is Very Much the 3 Central Figure.

Charles M. Schwab does not taka himself seriously, except: as an ine stl‘ulnéntali¢y for service and production, and he does not listen to any praise of himself without tempering it with a. retort if the occasion' permits.: v : % 3

' Mr. Schwab attended a banq‘uet’ in Indianapolis revently. . After . hearing -eulogies of himself by other speakers, he told the following. stories: Y“lt is embarrassing to hear oneself eulogized as I have been by your good toastmaster, but when it is done, I ‘bring myself to have a better cenception of myself by recalling an incident that happened shortly after I took charge of the Carnegie plant. “I was more or less a figure of local prominence ‘in the -community, and when I left the plant each day I rode home in- a buggy driven by an old darky. o “One day as we were driving along, a mother out taking an airing with her little ddughter walked to the side of the road and as we passed pointed up at the buggy and said: ‘There, honey, is Mr. Schwab.’ The child replied: ‘Which one, mother? ” ’ : Reversing Speech. . There is a curious phonographic in. strument, the inventton of Poulsen, capable of reversing the sounds of a word or -a sentence. A steel piano ‘wire,.carried .on two spools, passes between thie poles of a small electromagnet so connected -with a telephone transmitter that spoken words ‘are magnetically ‘recorded on the moving wire and reproduced in a receiving instrument.. When the motion of the wire is direct, the words are heard Rs in ordinary conversation, but if the motion is reversed, the sounds come to the ear in reverse order, like words spelled backward. To represent ‘the order in which the reversed sounds strike the ear, however, not only must the order of the letters composing a word be reversed, but each letter must itself be reversed from .right to left, as ‘when reflected from a mirror.

Train Lighting Made Easy.

Small enough to be mounted almost anywhere on a locomotive is a compact unit consisting of a direct-con-nected. dynamo and steam turbine, that has been produced in, Switzerland to provide for train lighting. In the housing for the turbine, between it and the dynamo, is an air fan for cooling the shaft bearing at this point, and which acts also as a stuffing box for the turbine. The turbine, says Popular Mechanics Magazine, is very simple, and the steam requires no control, for the air fan acts as a governor, preventing racing, and keeping the speed uniform at all- loads. The lamps in the train remain remarkably steady, and.there is a very small variation of voltage, mo matter how many or how few lanfhs.are in operation; = ' Tl pl ) b

s PR, Winten Flowers. . . - A fascinating way in whieh to force bulbs is to grow them in _water, Chinese lilies, hyacinths and® paper white narcissus being especially responsive to this method. e

' Preparations are simple: First put pebbles in'a dish of water, keeping the water slightly below the tops of the stones. A few small bits of charcoal will aid in keeping the water sweet. Place the bulbs on the pebbles and set away in'a cool, dark, well ventilated closet until the roots get a good start and the leaf spikes are about an inch high, " Then bring to the light and proceed as carefully as with trench grown plants. e
