A Queer Marriage Ceremony.
Anions tho Kherrlns of India the
marriage ceremony Is very funny.
Taking a sninll portion of the hair of
the bride and groom in turn from the
center of the forehead, the priest draws
It down on to the bridge of the nose.
Then, pouring oil on the head, he
watches it carefully as It trickles down
the portion of hair. If the oil wins
straight on to the tip of the nose their
future will be fortunate, but If It
spreads over the forehead or trickles
off on either side of the nose, bad luck
Is sure to follow. Their fortunes told,
generally to their own satisfaction, the
essential and Irrevocable part of the
ceremony tnltes place. Standing up
side by side, but with fnecs strictly
averted, the bride and groom mark
each other's forehead with "sindur"
(vermilion).
Marriage- Forbidden tbe Deformed.
Deformed persons, who are very
rare among the Sakals, or those at

HOW TO TELL
GOOD RUBBERS.
There's a new rubber brand every
few months ; and miphty poor some
of them. But they're varnished up
to look fine.
There's just one sure way to tell
f ood Rubbers look at the bottom
or the brand. The famous
CANOE!
RUBBERS
have the name "CANDEE"tamped
on the bottom of every boot and shoe.
The Candee Rubber Company is the
oldest Kubber Company in the world,
For 63 years Candee Rubbers have
been as good as Rubbers could be
made.
Ask for Candees.
