Some Strange Cl181.01115 of Vaiions Rates Obesrve. The -kiss, the hand -shake and the bow are the salutations that ere 10 the anost universal use at the pre- sent day. Yet there exist races to whom these forms of greeting wotild seem as ludicrous as their own customs secen to us. In this connection IteclaintsUniversnin de- iseribes seine curious customs' that the people of various races observe when they greet one another. The prostration and the salaam, salutations that many Orientals use, are only mere pronounced forms of the bow. So there is a connection between the embraee, go common in, oiviiiied countries, and the greeting of the member of the Koiari tribe of British New Guinea, whe; in eclair -1g a missionary, placed one arm about his meek and stroked him under the chin. Araong the Masai and the Uker- ewe, it is mark of respect to greet an acquaintance or a stranger by spitting at him. Almost as strange is the custom ascribed to the Tibe- tans of eticking out the tongue by way of salutation: Ruaibing noses is quite conamon; the Burmese, and many tribes of Eskinaos, Lapland- e15and Malays do so. gtranger than any of theseeus- -toms is the weeping salutation that has been observed among central South Ameriean Indians, This form of greeting oocure too in the An- daman Islands'New too, „and Polynesia. A Portuguese explorer cleseribes the custain aa he saw it used among a tribe of South Ameri- can Indians: "Whenever a guest enters a hut he is immediately honored, and made welcome by being wept over. Without a, word being spoken, he is led to the hammock-. As mem as he is seated, the .hestess and her daughtere, and any of their girl friends who happeii to be in the house at the time, oome and sit about the guest, touch hisn bightly with their flaaersaand oomrnence to weep loudly and to shed many tears; during this ceremony, in a sort of connected discourse, they recite everything that has happen- ed to them recently, and talk of the hardships” of the road that the visi- aor has s•uffered, and of anything an.d everything that can •arouse compassion ancl tears. The guest, his hand before his face, pretends to weep, and doe& not speak until tho crying has gone on for some time. Then they all wipe away their tears, and become as lively and merry as if they had never cried in all their lives." Always a Better To -morrow.

Proverbs in varioue languages gather round the well-known ad- vice "After dinner sit a while; after supper walk a mile." "If you would be ill sup and go to is another way in which the truth is expressed; the proverb that says "Who goes supperless to. bed, all night tumbles and teases," is in apparent oontradiction to it; 'but it is eaey to see that what is here meant is the restlessneas which fol- lows fasaings; sapper taken at a minable and suffiment time before retiring to rest being rewarded by quiet slumbers. The waning diges- tive powers of old age are pethaps hinted at in the saying, "He wrongs not an old man who steals his sup- per." Ceclrington, in his "Collec- tion of Proverbs," gives the secret of long life, "To rise at Mx and dine at ten, to sup at six and go to bed at ten, will mike a, ma ten times tens" • 11 Griggs—I see who are health their hair unc Briggs—My way one night the window.
