Mary Color Lines in Cuba.
Tlicro live social distinctions in Cuba
based upon color. There is not 0110
but several color lines , though these
are not eternal , hard , fast and un
changeable , as in the United States. In
Cuba social life is run largely by
social clubs. There are in almost ev
ery town and village negro clubs , two
or throe grades of mulatto clubs and
white clubs. In one and at its func
tions may appear the husband , exclud
ing the wife : in another , the wife ,
but not the husband ; in a third , their
children , ' but neither the father nor
mother. To the world this will appear
incredible , almost incomprehensible.
Here it is convention , lixcd , settled , ac
cepted and operative. These distinc
tions , however , run but for a lifetime.

"Dollars , " she replied calmly.
"What for ? "

"Um-um , " he hesitated. "I guess I
shall have to check your extravagance ,
my dear. "
"Do. " she r.aiiled , "and make it pay
able to my order , please. "

The Persian Language.
Persian is said to be not a very dif
ficult language. The modern Persian
is very much like the English in its
sensible rejection of the inflections that
burden so many of the world's tongues.
There is no difference of termination
to mark the gender either in nouns
or adjectives , and all inanimate things
are neuter. In other ways the Persian
-1-nuruace conforms 1.0 the English.
