Women of the Gilbert islands being
merely regarded as cattle or any other
property, writes Arthur Inkersley In
The Overland Monthly, the matrimonl-
al knot is easily tied and just as easily
united. If man fancies a girl, he
seizes her by the hair of the head,
wherever she may be, despite her pro-
testations, and drags her away to his
home Her resistance Is not often seri-

the anti-vaccinatlonists. In London.
when AGO cases a been reported. up

among the vaccinated was 20 per
cent. among the unvaccinated 60 per
cent. All of the twenty-three smallpox

vaccinated, and nineteen died. OF
these under 10 all yut one were vac
cinated. and twenty-nine out OF forty.
two uled. OF eighty-one children I'm.
der Is years Of age fifty-seven were
vaccinated and thirty-eight died;
twenty-four were v~accinated and TWEEN.
ty'three OF them recovered. Out OF
