CURIOUS CUSTOMS OF ASSAM
Not the Least Peculiar Among Them
Is That Known as Doing
"Genna."
Among the Inhabitants of ARanm
tlicro nro ctirlutiH custoniR deHcrllicd
liy a recent traveler: "The local no
Neman who had consented to help tho

had cnmplnlned In the morning of n

refused to take more He expected

and therefore he had to tender his
resignation.
"lie came to uec mo a few weeks

"There la n atory of a certain well

HAD CHOICE BETWEEN EVILS
Bachelor Could Not Save Rug
Be In Time for the Theater
Still Has the Rug.
and
A theater party waited half an hour
tho other ovenlnR for one belated In
dividual, who arrived breathless and
profusely npoloRetlc. Apologlos en
lulled explanations, and explanations
revealed some of the exigencies, aa
well the humor, of bachelor make
shifts. In this case the gentleman who was
tardy found It imperative to econo
mize space Neeesfllty made hlu
opera hat share a closet shelf with
'he Tarragon vinegar and the olive
oil used at occasional evening spreads.
One could multiply proveibs In tell
ing the tale, for in his haste to be on
time tho vinegar and the oil ciutip
dowu unexpectedly with the opera hat,
and deposited their contents upon his
latest acquisition, the Shervan niR
ho had Just treated himself to.
It was ruin the rug or be late to the
party, so, up came tho rug, on went
the water in the bathtub, and to scrub
bing fell he The rug was saved, and
tho theater paity enjoyed the laugh
they had over the tale.
Good Letter Writing.
"Authors, my altoRether dear worn-
nn, can't write letters. At best they
xiueeze out an essay now and then."
James Russell wrote to this effect pre
cisely 40 years iiro In addresalng Miss
Norton, and he added: "They aro
thinking of their punctuation, of cross
Iur their t'c and dottliiR their I's, and
cannot altoRether forget themselves
in their correspondent, which 1 tako
to be the truo recipe." Tho assertion
of fact is true cnniiRh; tho author In
seldom a Rood letter writer. He Is apt
to ho like Or. Holmes, only "a very
Rood correspondent as a reader of let
ters." Hut with Low oil's explanatory
principle one Is tempted to quarrel.
The bent lettt r w liter does not for
et himself In bin correspondent; ho
leaves It to his correspondent to do

We Make Ourselves.

bell. 1 have heaid a woman hay: "Oh,
I unnnot do tint ; 1 would be bom"
next time a hunchback!" That may
not be true On the other hnnd, ho
would be bold who would say It could
not be so for even in this life wo
make ourselves. The miser, the evil
speaker, the drunkard and Rlutton,
and those who deny the claims of
humanity, those who Ignore the poor,
the suffering, tho outcast see how
they have made themsolvos!
Furtlvo eyes, hard mouths, unlovely

A Musical Burglar.
An ingenious burglary was recently
committed In u fushloitable Jeweler's
shop in Vienna, the thief having en
tered by a hole he had made In tho
celling while playing the flute. Tho
tint above was let in lodgings, and tho
landlady Informed the police, when tho
burglary was discovered, that 3he had
let a small loom to a well-dressed
young man, wl.o played the llute all
riunday morning and afternoon In
the evening ho went out anil did not
return. A Jemmy and other burglar's
implements were found In his lug
gage, and tho man must havo made,
the holo In the floor with ono hand,
while he played the llute, in order to
drown tho nolae, with the other.
