The two thousand Choctaws still living in their ancestral homes in Mississippi, retain, in their pristine vigor, many of the usages of their ancestors. Among these are the methods employed in conducting a courtship and the marriage ceremony. When a young Choctaw, of Kemper or Neshoba county, sees a maiden who pleases his fancy, he watches his opportunity until he finds her alone. He then approaches within a few yards of her and gently casts a pebble toward her, so that it may fall at her feet. He may have to do this two or three times before he attracts the maiden's attention. If this pebble throwing is agreeable, she soon makes tongue and lips and under the nostrils of a speaker, are vibrated by the movements of the former and the breath flowing from the latter. This vibration is transmitted to pencils. These transcribe the several signs produced by the action of the tongue and lips and the breath from the nostrils upon a strip of paper moved by a mechanical arrangement, and thus a special system of writing, which may be termed glossography, is produced. This is based upon the principle of syllable construction and combination of consonants. OLD-FASHIONED MEN AND WOMEN. "What I am longing arter," said Brother Gardner as Trustee Hullback ceased coughing and Samuel Shin finally got a rest for his feet—"what I am longin' arter am a sight of a good, old-fashioned man or woman—sich as we could find in ebery house thirty y'ars ago, but such as cannot be found now in a week's hunt. It makes me lonesome when I realize that our old-fashioned men an' winnin are no mo'. In de days gone by, if I fell sick one woman would run in wid catnip, anoder wid horseradish leaves, anoder wid a bowl o' gruel, an' tears would be shed, an' kind words spoken, an' one couldn't stay sick to save him. In dose good ole days de kaliker dress an' white apron abounded. An honest woman wasn't afeared to wash her face on account of de powder. Ebery woman wore her own hair, and she wore it to please herself instead of fashun. Thick shoes kept de feet dry, thick clothes kept de body warm, an' dar was no winkin' an' wobblin' an' talkin' frew de teef. "Dar was goodness in de land in dem good ole days. Dar was prayin' to God, an' de hearts meant it. De woman who wore a No. 6 shoe was as good as de woman wid a foot all pinched out of shape an' kivered wid co'ns. You didn't hear much 'bout breach o' promise cases an' oder devilry. De man who parts his ha'r in de middle an' billem." When a young Choctaw, of Kemper or Neshoba county, sees a maiden who pleases his fancy, he watches his opportunity until he finds her alone. He then approaches within a few yards of her and gently casts a pebble toward her, so that it may fall at her feet. He may have to do this two or three times before he attracts the maiden's attention. If this pebble throwing is agreeable, she soon makes it manifest; if otherwise, a scornful look and a decided "ekwah" indicate that his suit is in vain. Sometimes instead of throwing pebbles the suitor enters the woman's cabin and lays his hat or handkerchief on her bed. This action is interpreted as a desire on his part that she should be the sharer of his couch. If the man's suit is acceptable the woman permits the hat to remain; but if she is unwilling to become his bride, it is removed instantly. The rejected suitor, in either method employed, knows that it is useless to press his suit, and beats as graceful a retreat as possible. When a marriage is agreed upon, the lovers appoint a time and place for the ceremony. On the marriage day the friends and relatives of the prospective couple meet at their respective houses or villages, and thence march toward each other. When they arrive near the marriage grounds—generally an intermediate space between the two villages—they halt within about a hundred yards of each other. The brothers of the woman then go across to the opposite party and bring forward the man and seat him on a blanket spread upon the marriage ground. The man's sisters then do likewise by going over and bringing forward the woman and seating her by the side of the man. Sometimes, to furnish a little merriment for the occasion, the woman is expected to break loose and run. Of course she is pursued, captured, and brought back. All parties now assemble around the expectant couple. A bag of bread is brought forward by the woman's relatives and deposited near her. In like manner the man's relatives bring forward a bag of meat and deposit it near him. These bags of provisions are lingering symbols of the primitive days when men were not able to face on account of de powder. Every woman wore her own hair, and she wore it to please herself instead of fashun. Thick shoes kept de feet dry, thick clothes kept de body warm, an' dar was no winkin' an' wobblin' an' talkin' frew de teef. "Dar was goodness in de land in dem good ole days. Dar was prayin' to God, an' de hearts meant it. De woman who wore a No. 6 shoe was as good as de woman wid a foot all punched out of shape an' kivered wid co'sns. You didn't hear much 'bout breach o' promise cases an' oder deviltry. De man who parts his ha'r in de middle an' b'lieve he mashes his wictims by de score wasn't bo'n den. People didn't let dar nay-burs die under dar nose widout eben known'in dat sickness had come to de family. Men worked hard an' put in full time, an' women foun' sunthin' to do besides gaddin' she streets to show off a small foot or a new bonnet. "De world calls it progress. We must shet our hearts against our naybur, sacrifice all fur fashun, conceal our limps and pains, appear what we are not, an' when we go to de grave fur rest we am forgotten in a week. Whar one woman looks to heaben a dozen looks to fashun. Whar' one man helps de poo' from kindness of heart a dozen chip in because de list ob names will be published in de paper. When I sot down of an evenin' an' fink dese fings ober, it makes me sad. I doan' know jist how wicket Sodom was, nor what deviltry dey was up to in Gomorrah, but if either town had more vanity, frivolity an' deceit dan Detroit, Chicago, Buffalo, or any odder city in dis kentry, rents mus' have bin awful high."—Detroit Free Press. The following is an extract from the laws of China: "All persons renouncing their country and allegiance, or devising the means thereof, shall be beheaded; and in the punishment of this offense, no distinction shall be made between principals and accessories. The property of all such criminals shall be confiscated, and their wives and children distributed as slaves to the great officers of State." Free of Cost. Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, Asthma, Bronchitis, etc., is given away in trial bottles free of cost to the afflicted. If you have a severe cough, cold, difficulty of breathing, hoarseness or any affection of the throat or lungs by all means give this wonderful remedy a trial. As you value your existence you cannot afford to let this opportunity pass. We could not afford, and would not give this remedy away unless we knew it would accomplish what we claim for it. Thousands of hopeless cases have already been completely cured by it. There is no medicine in the world that will cure one-half the cases that Dr. King's New Discovery will cure. For sale by all druggists. Prof. James A. Sewell, A.M., M.D. Of Medical Faculty, Laval University, Quebec states: "I have found Colden's Liebig's LIQUID EXTRACT OF BEEF AND TONIC woman is expected to break loose and run. Of course she is pursued, captured, and brought back. All parties now assemble around the expectant couple. A bag of bread is brought forward by the woman's relatives and deposited near her. In like manner the man's relatives bring forward a bag of meat and deposit it near him. These bags of provisions are lingering symbols of the primitive days when the man was the hunter to provide the household with game, and the woman was to raise corn for the bread and hominy. The man's friends and relatives now begin to throw presents upon the head and shoulders of the woman. These presents are of any kind that the donors choose to give, as articles of clothing, money, trinkets, ribbons, etc. As soon as thrown they are quickly snatched off by the woman's relatives and distributed among themselves. During all this time the couple sit very quietly and demurely, not a word spoken by either. When all the presents have been thrown and distributed, the couple, now man and wife, arise, the provisions from the bags are spread, and, just as in civilized life, the ceremony is rounded off with a festival. The festival over, the company disperse, and the gallant groom conducts his bride to his home, where they enter upon the toils and responsibilities of the future.—[Amer. Naturalist. The Glossograph.
