It Is Said to Hay* the Most Trying Climate In the World. The chief peculiarity about Kuria is that the natives believe the place where they live is the exact site of the garden of Eden. The climate of Kurna is acknowl- edged to be the most trying in all the world. The heat is terrific in the sum- mer time. It is claimed that the Brit- ish government has a record of 159 degrees in the shade upon the bridge of a boat anchored in the river at Busreh, a little to the south. The missionaries at Busreh tell of nights when the thermometer regis• ters not less than 125 degrees. British sailors bound for the Persian gulf in the summer time usually desert if they can. Perhaps in Arizona the thermom- eter rises nearly as high, but there.is the dry air, while in the Persian' gulf it is exceedingly moist The Europeans' at Busreh must the days in underground chambers, Or serdaubs, while a native boy Pulls. a huge fan, or punkah, suspended from the ceiling to keep the air in circula- tion. The nights are spent on the roof, for it is impossible to sleep be- low. In the winter time the air seems ex- ceedingly cold, for the marshes are filled with salt, and as the wind sweeps over the plain the moist air is peculiarly penetrating. Frequently the Arab, benumbed by the cold, falls from his horse. Where Plato Taught. The famous academy of P]ato was in a suburb of Athens, about a mile north of the Dypilum gate. itis said to have belonged to the hero Academns; hence the name. It was surrounded with a wall and adorned with walks, groves and fountains. Plato possessed a entail estate in the neighborhood and for some fifty years taught his "divine phi- losophy" to young and old assembled in the academy to listen to his wise words. After Plato's death in 348 B. C. the academy lost much of its fame, but the beauty remained for centuries aft- er the great teacher was no more. -- • The Margin of Leisure. A broad margin of leisure is as bean:- tilts] in a man's life as in a book. Haste makes -waste no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, ob- serve the hours of the universe, not of the cars. What are threescore years and ten hurriedly and coarsely lived to moments of divine leisure in which your life Is coincident with the life of the universe? We' live too fest and coarsely, just as we eat too fast and do not know the true savor of our food. We consult our will and understanding and the expectation of ineu, not our genius.—Thoreau. • ; Inducements to Matrimony. There prevails in some parts of Brit- tany a curious marriage custom.
