nocuous desuetude” during the past
few months. The meetings of the
Post are held monthly.

CONCERNING COWLES
From a column and a half notice
of F7ugenc Cowles’ recital recently in
Cincinnati, th« following is extracted:
“An event long to bo remembered,
and looked back upon with great
pleasnre. He rendered ‘The Horn’
by Flegier in a manner that electrified
the audience. The ‘Curfew’, 'Absent'
and ‘Toreador’s Love Song’ were
beautifully rendered, and after vig
orous applause he sang ‘The Two
Grenadiers.’ The applause after this
did not cease for several minutes. ’’
A great favorite is Eugene Cowles.
His date here is Monday, December
15, under the auspices of the Elks’
Lodge.

The marriageable girl In Tunis has a
trying ordeal to go through after her
betrothal to the man not of her choice,
but whose choice she Is. She has to be
fattened to the required alxe before the
ceremony can take place.
As soon as the betrothal takes place
she Is tukeu to a room and there
cooped up ill the fattening process Is
concluded. Silver shackles are fastened
round her wrists ond ankles, aud the
task of her parents and future hus
band Is to Increase her bulk till her
wrists and ankles fill up the shackles.
If the husband Is it widower or has
“disc liar get 1” his first wife, the girl
lias the shackles of the first spouse
placed on her. and she must fill them
out.
It takes a long time to do this ns u
rule, and sometime* It cannot be ac
complished In spite of all efforts. It is
then open to the future husband to cry
off the bargain or waive the condition,
in the case of a bachelor he takes care
to see that the bracelets and anklets
are not too iurge— that is. If he Is fond
of the girl but If he Is Isdng forced
Into the marriage by his parents, lie Is
