Vou .MuM no Home Funny Tiling * If Ton Wiinlil Do IIH the llomnnM Do. An old ndngo says : "When In Homo do es the Romans do , " but If IB a question ivhothcr the average American tourist ever earns the customs of tbo Romans. Even people who have lived In the eternal city , relates the New York Sun , fall to observe many of the traits and ways o the Romans n their dally life. An Englishman , who'was an old resident of Home , was put to shame by an American school teacher of 22 , who asked him If' ho < new why they chopped eo little wood Mil Italy. Ho had taken upon hlnisclf the office of general dispenser of Information among .ho guests , and , not being willing to con- 'css Ignorance , ho blurted out : "Ah , yes. I fawncy It must bo the want of wood and the emallncss of the ax. " But the young woman and she came from New York City explained to him that the real reason was that they sawed most of : hc wood. She showed the guests how the Italians hold the saw between their heels and knees and draw the log across the teeth. These are llttlo things , but they go to make up a people's personality and are curious facts for foreigners. When ono vehicle passes another In Italy the driver keeps to the left. The pedestrians act In the same way. Some foreigners go through Italy from Naples to Milan nnd at the end wonder why It was that the Italians persisted In getting Into their way. The cigars usually smoked are like Pitts- burg stogies , but nro only half as palatable. They cost 2 cents apiece. As for the owners of bicycles , they have a hard time. Each rider must take out a license for himself , he can rldo no other wheel than his own and should ho permit his brother to use , his wheel without a license the authorities would seize and re tain the machine until a heavy fine was paid. Another peculiar custom Is the way In which nn Italian will beckon with bin hand. In America people wave the hand toward them when they desire a person's approach ; In Italy It is Just the opposite. When an Italian waves a goodbye to you with his hand you Imagine ho Is calling you back and if he wants you to approach he motions with his hand as Americans do In making a gesture of repulsion. In Italy the newspapers reach the public about 9 o'clock at night. When the family wash is ready the mother carries the basket full of clothes on her head to "tho public wash house , the lavatojo. Hero she pays a tax for the use of the water and for a place nt the scrub 'bench. The working women have necks of steel , owing to the development of iho muscles received in carrying such weights. In rowing the Neapolitans face the bow. When nt n theater or on any publlo promenade in Italy you may stare to your heart's content at your neighbor , but should It bo .a woman at whom , you gaze you must never smile ; If you do It Is considered an insult. Among the common people soqp nnd but ter arc considered luxuries' nnd should you be able to have a steve in your house you must pay the government a tax for Its uso. Bananas or peanuts are never seen in Italy. As for hand organs and the festive monkey , they are seldom seen In the city streets. A peasant * from the mountains bringing in vegetables to sell to the city folks must pay a tax at the gate before ho can enter the walls. At the llrst sign of snow tbo Roman school boys have a holiday , To refuse a pinch of snuff Is a grlevou * Insult. To walk In the sunlight Is to class yourself with dogs nnd barbarians , To enter a shop and to walk , out without mak ing a purchase Is to call down upon your head the wrath of an Italian tongue , whose superlative curses would make a New York truckman green with envy. Of all the sights , a burial procession In Italy Is the strangeat. It startles a man to turn a corner and to come , suddenly Into a gloomy street , where the yellow glare of funeral torches -throws grotesque shadows ' along the housewalls. . There is a quick glittering of censers , a low .wall from the mourners , a measured tread of white-robed chanting priests , a smell of incense hanging In tbo hot air and behind It all rises a great , high object In black and along Its top lies a coflln. Flowers nro piled around the dead and following the hearse is a crowd of mourners , jostling ono another at I they meet la the narrow passagewayi.
