a recipe he has used for fifty years, and
which he says has saved several men and

of mourning delay and expense and the al

This is true economy, for it insures speedy

w A year or so ago, an Englishman
residing in Hindostan. created sensa-
ton by turning Mahometan. and imme-
diately marrying native wife. His
English spouse complained Of the fact,
and he was tried for bigamy. His ac-
quittal on the ground Of religion, led to
an effort to change the English law in
order to cover such suspicious cases OF
conversion. A woman has now done
the same thing. Mrs. Lennon, of Bonn
bay, became Mahometan, and few
minutes thereafter became Mrs. Nicer
Ahmed Khan. Her English spouse
complained, and she is now In jail await
ing her trial. 1t is gratifying to note
the progress of the women's rights
cause in far-off India.
