What mouey la to a son of the west, ao
marriage Is to the Korean; every man Is
after It. He never, never associates with
marriage such a line as "klsa me softly
and apeak to me low," and yet he wants
to be married.
Theoretically he saya "Iet me be married
in the spring, when the plum bloseoios
greet you, and when the peach flowers and
apricots tint the hillside." but he never
thinks of his bride as his plum blossom.
Spring Is the mating season, and he would
mate. He wants to be married, not for
his selfish pleasure, not because there la
a little soft-coated heart and soul that
longa to rest in his love and be looked
after; not a bit of it.
Iicent rumors swept over the land to
aay that In a little while no marriage
would be permitted between Koreana; that
every marriageable Korean would have to
be mated to a Japanese, and such a scurry
in all go-between circles was never seen
beforo. Marriage boxes, that are given the
bride, ran up In price, and at last were
scarcely purchasable for any money. Ev
erybody seemingly was out on the hot hunt
to get one ere the lawful decree took ef-
good. A record of 3U0 a year la considered
a good, average.
"The situation In some sections is more
serious than many suppose. Rabies among
wild animals la more aorlous than among
domestic animals, and the only way' to
stop the danger la to kill all the coyotes.

Ireland's Flag the Oldest
Though the flag of Ireland la one of the
oldest national emblems In the world, ante-
dating by hundreds of years that of vir
tually all of the other nations, the historic
and sentimental Interest that surrounds it
la probably known to few persons outside
of really patriotic Irishmen.
The arrival of a Milesian colony from
the city of Mil. tils in Asia Minor, bring
ing to Erin the knowledge of letters and
the elements of civilisation, witnessed also
the raising of the Ilagthat ever floated
as a national banner over the Emerald
Isle. That was but years before the Chris
tian era.
tireen was tha color selected as the basis
of the emblem, and the sun was placed
upon It as an emblem of their religion, they
being tire worshippers. The harmonious
blending of the design and the color ap
pealed to the CelU, and they adopted it
aa the insignia which has Inspired patrlot-
.am for cehturlea.
The harp became a part of the flag in
the first year of the Christian era, when
Ireland was visited by the celebrated
Timotheus, a famous musician and poet
and a descendant of Timotheus of Ml'.etus.
Hla music so enraptured the people that
they determined to honor him by placing
the harp upon the banner, and amid great
pomp and ceremony this waa done by re
moving half the aim from it, showing that
half, the people worshipped the sun and
the other half the Uod of bavld. This
waa the first step toward Christianity In
Ireland.

Library for
Andrew Carnegie has been the greatest
giver of libraries In the world. He has a
library of his own that is wonderful, prob
ably as remarkable a collection of books
as Is owned by any private Individual In
America or elsewhere. It takes up a vast
and beautiful room In his great mansion on
Fifth avenue, New York, and Is alongside
the plain and business-like office of the
master of Iron and of Innumerable millions.
Hut herein lies a curious circumstance.
While Andrew Carnegie's fame will rest
largely in future ages Ujn his huving
founded o many libraries for public use
there la little evidence in his own library
that he has much use for books.
This wonderful library furnUbea a pretty
sure of the half sun from the flag and
the substitution of the shamrock. To Illus
trate how the Trinity could be, Ht. Patrick
stopped his eloquent discourse and picked
up a sprig of shamrock, showing to the
assembly three distinct leaves on one titalk.
The shamrock design was made of while
to represent the robe the saint and his
apostles wore.
In the tenth century the, color of the
harp and shamrock was changed to yel
low, following the great battle with the
I'anes, the Irish forces be led to victory
by the celebrated Brian Horrholme, who
was slain as he gave thanks for the
triumph. Wefore the battle the princess of
Erin presented to O'Oonohue, who com
manded Brian's favorite regiment, a superb
banner she had worked with yellow silk,
much prized by the king. The flag thus re
mained up to January, 1800, when tha union
with England waa consummated.

"Oh, yes, we have a wonderful climate,"
said the man from southern Texas. "Why,
only last season we raised pumpkins so
large that, after sawing H In two, my

men are not content to be- what they are,
but want the world to think them different.
Every one who knows .Andrew , Carnegie
knows him to be a talkative, almost gar
rulous man. Once he gets started on k sub
ject he hates to let go. Few persons know
him aa a well-read man. But Mr, Carnegie
wants the world io know him hot' aa a '
chatty and sometimes tlruxomely loquacious
person, but as a lover of books, a atudent
of literature and a, writer of books. ,
Mr. Carnegie may love - books, but no
one can go through this beautiful library
and think go. Thla man of hundreds of
millions of dollars may know books, but
you wouldn't know' It after examining tha
proof thia library furnishes. Jn fact, you
would be forced to the conclusion that Mr.
Carnegie's love of books and knowledge of
I bopka la a pretense or a poso and that his

for display.
A lover of literature or an enthusiast on
the art of bookmuklng, binding, typography,
engraving or Ideal color printing would
revel lu the great bookroom In the big
mansion on Fifth avenue. Th thousand
of volumes that are in the high apartment
are masterpieces. They fill every inch of
wall space, , except where doors, windows
and fireplace stand, and are heaped upon
great centertaoies. .
