When the Danish missionaries had secured the confidence of the Green-landers marriage was made a religions ceremony. Formerly the man married the woman as the Romans did the Sabine women, by force. One of the missionaries writing in his journal describes the present style of courtship as follows: The suitor coming to the missionary said, I should like to have a wife." "Whom?" asks the missionary. The man names the woman. Hast thou spoken to her?" Sometimes the man will answer, Yes she is not unwilling, but thou knowest womankind." More frequently the answer is No." "Why not?" "It is difficult; girls are prudish.

Thou must speak to her." The missionary summons the girl, and after a little conversation says I think it time to have thee married." I won't "What a pity! I had a suitor for thee." "Whom?" The missionary names the man who has sought his aid. "He is good for nothing. I wont have him." But," replies the missionary, he is a good provider; he throws his harpoon with skill and loves thee." Though listening to his praise with evident pleasure the girl answers, "I won't have him." Well, I won't force thee. I shall soon find a wife for such a clever fellow." The missionary remains silent as though he understood her no" to have ended the matter. At last with a sigh she whispers: Just as thou wilt have it, missionary." No," replies the clergyman, as thou wilt; I'll not persuade thee." Then, with a deep groan, comes yes," and the matter is settled.

A young Jewish lady, of a rich and respected family, was recently on the point of being married, near Cologne, in Germany, when a peasant woman entered and forbade the ceremony. She said that twenty years before she had been the nurse of the child now supposed to be the bride, but had accidentally rolled over upon it and smothered it while sleeping. Fearing punishment, she substituted her own infant, and allowed it subsequently to be taken from her. Of course I am much obliged for the education and rearing the child has received," said the woman, but you can understand that as a good Christian I could never allow my daughter to be married to a Jew." sympathy than a young man with 15 cents in Lis pocket, a girl on each arm, hard, dry lumber, ready for use.
