Should the women of Persia ever get a vote, they will doubtless see to it that the lot of their sex Is consider ably improved, for at the present time they are regarded as nonetities. A husband. In Persia never s-peaks of his wife to his acquaintances, and, if obliged to mention her, it Is by some other term than wife, as "mother of my son," or "my house." She must not exist for anyone but her husband, and from all others she must be hid den non-existing. v For this reason, when the harems- of governors or very high personages pass through the streets of Persia the men whom they meet either turn their backs or slip down a by-street or into some con venient doorway On passing a European, if sure that none of her co-religionists see her, a woman, particularly If she be young and good-lookinsr. will often raisw her veil, from under which a pair of dark eyes follow the stranger with a cur ious gaze. Maidens wishing to get married vis it the tomb of some sacred, woman There are many such tombs, and most of them are considered as the pa trons of virgins. Marriages are con tracted very early. Sometimes owing to family reasons-, one hears of a youth of fifteen or sixteen married to a girl much older. The marriageable age tor a gin is fixed at nine. AFTER-THEATRE SUPPER PARTY.

Ciub President Kuester Gives Sug gestion As To Permanent Headquarters For Greater Charlotte Club in New Ma sonic Tempje. . Mr. Clarence O. Kuester, president of the Greater Charlotte Club, at the Pioneers' meeting Thursday night threw out a suggestion to the club as to a future home for the club and held the members to put the idea in their pipes and smoke it. The Masonic Association is to build a Masonic temple six stories high at the corner of Tryon and East Sec ond streets and Mr. Kuester's idea is to have the Greater Charlotte Club quarters oil. either the first or second floors of the building. The four upper floors will be used by the different Masonic bodies of the city for offices. Mr. Kuester's further idea is " to have the front part of which ever floor the club can secure for the office of the Greater Charlotte Club and to have an assembly hall in the rear of this. This will give, the club a place to hold all its meetings instead of holding them in the assembly hall of tne fcelwyn hotel. It is proposed also, if the quarters are obtained in the new building, to-have plate glass around the entire length of the wall and to charge a rental for advertising space on this surface, or use it as a kind of bulletin board giving informa tion about all the articles manufac tured in Charlotte. Mr. Kuester sprung the idea on the members- of the club, solely for their consideration., The building Is expect ed to be erected in eighteen months or two years and the boosters will have plenty of time to think it Over. A number of the members have al ready expressed approbation of the idea.

An your common bughouse phrases make the shrinking highbrow tired. There is nothing more delight ful than a pure and careful speech, and the man who weighs his phrases al ways stacks up aa a peach, while the guy who shoots his larynx in acareless, siiphod way looms up as a selling pla ter, people brand him for a jay. In my youth my father soaked me if I entered his shebang handingoout a line of language- that he recognized as down among the mice and rats, and with nice long sticks- of stovewood he'd plays solos on my slats. Thus I gained a deep devotin for our language un defiled, and it drives me nearly batty when I hear my only child springing wards of hard-boiled language such as dips and yeggmen use, and I want a feromation or I'll stroke you with my shoes.

Ion of the State, a man well versed in : law., but entirely self-educated, who v.; had to contend with the principals of I orthopraphy all his life. In early life he had lived in Knoxville, and for a i long time he insisted upon spelling, the name Noxville. Finally his friends, ' educated him up to the point of adding ' . ' the K; so thoroughly, in fact, was- the'- , lesson learned that when, a few yearg , , afterwards, he removed to Nashville, f, . I nothing could prevent him from spell- ing it Knashville. . i Then some time later the Judge moved again; this time to Murfrees-f boro. On the day that he began to write : ' his first letter from this place1 he ! scatched his head In perplexity, and'. ', finally exclaimed: 1 '. "I give it up!
