marriageable-when she is twelve years old
or earlier. Some men have thus four or six
wives of various ages, while others have
none at ALL
Among the higher ranks in the Society
and Sandwich Islands it was the general
custom Of parents to betroth their daughters
during childhood. But contrary to the views
and practice of all other people, if it so hap
pens that when noble girl grew up she
experienced no affection for her spouse, this
was not cause Of suffering; for, in confor-
nifty with both law and custom, a lady of
rank, though married, was permitted to take
unto herself other husbands without ccasing
to be the wife of her first one-thus placing
herself precisely on a level with her polyga-
nous lord. OF all the inhabitants of the
Pacific those Of the Tonga Islands accorded
to woman the highest position and respect.
Rut even there about one-third of the whole
were usually betrothed at an early age by
their parents to chiefs and men in the high
er ranks. In the Kingsmill group the prac-
tlce is universal: girls are commonly be-
trothed as soon as they are born; and in one
Of the islands, (Makin) no marriage cere-
mony takes place, because every female child
is thus betrothed-usually to some near re-
lativc, who takes her to his house at what
ever age he may think fit. But in New
Zealand this custom involves refinement
of cruelty unknown in the other islands of
The Pacific: a betrothed New Zealand girl
not only ''tapued'' to her future husband
and to him alone, but, even, if he should
die, no other man can make a proposal to
her. AS may be supposed, severe check
is thus imposed on the growth of the popu-
lation: Though differing in form, yet es-
sentially similar in practice and effect, is the
universal custom Of the Hindoos, Commence
ed by the Able Dubois) according to which
widows may not marry again, ':even when
they lose their husbands at the age of six or
seven for it is not rare to see widows no
older, particularly among the Brahmins,
where an old man of sixty or upward takes
Cor his second wife a child of that tender
age"
OF all nations the Chinese carry out the
system of early betrothal most completely:
parents in China not only bargain for the
marriage of their children during their in

STEPHEN HALL, a queer genius, had
made frequent gracious promises to his trou-
bled friends, that he would put himself out
of his way. One singing cold night, he
vowed he would 60 out and freeze to death.
About eleven o'clock, he returned, shiv-
ering and swapping his fingers.
"Why don't you freeze?" asked loving
relative
"Golle!' said the pseudo-suicide, s'when
[ freeze, I mean to take aoarmaer night
than this for it."

Saw-Ms, for many have procured these mills
from those having no authority to make and vend
