[ MARKEN ISLAND oLO STYLE Ancient Manners Are Still Observed &nd HistorlgCostumes Are WorR by the Inhabitants.{ Marken island is a bit of the old Hol- land, an inlet lying In the Zuyder Zee not far from Edam, of cheese fame.

The Dutch are rapidly abafi- doning the old jvays that endepred them to the artists of bygone gemera- tlons, 8o that any spot where the tradi- tionial ectstonis are atill preserved: is worthy of note as a living musenm ot history. Such a spot is Marken island, where old manners are still followed and the old costumes still worn. Separated by only a narrow channel from the pro- gressive mainland, it {s none the less years behind the times. It seems to be characteristic of small islands that they progress much more slowly than mainland whence their people ciime, Thus in the Arran fslands off the coast of Ireland the old Irish tongue is still spoken; in the Hebrides men still live as théy lived in the days of Scott, and on Marken island the men still go down to the fishing boats in bloomers and wooden shoes.
