Mss SUSIE soRABJr.


There recently arrived in New York
from Bombay young woman of an
exceedingly interesting personality
and history. Susie Sorobji, is MEM
Der. of a Parsee family-one of the
very few families which have abjured
Zoroastrianism to embrace Chistian-
ity. As is well known, the Parsees
(Persians), of India, of whom there
are over 100000. are descendants of
an ancient sect known as fireworship-
ers, or Zoroastrians, who, driven
from their own land by Mohammedan
persecution, sought refuge in Hindu
stan in the seventh century. At the
present day they represent the most
prosperous moral and cultured class
of the native population.
Until 1871 no Parsce had accepted
Christ. In that year Mr.. Sorabji, .
Parsee gentleman of position and in
fuence, was converted, and about the
same time two other men of similar
standing acknowledged the Saviour.
All suffered severe persecution. Mr..
Sorabji died in 1894, after so years of
missionary work. His widow is at
the head of a great Christian educa-
tional work in Poonah, and her chill
dren, one of whom is the subject of
this sketch, are the brilliant pioneers
of new movements in Parsee life.
Miss Sorabji's only brother, &s-
tinguished lawyer in Allahabad, is
the organizer of q great deal of
Christian work, which draws to-
gether people of all races and classes.
Her sister Cornelia is the first wom-
an of India to take the degree OF
bachelor of arts. She is midas first
and only woman lawyer, and the first
woman to hold professorship (the
chair of English literature) in the
mems art college in India. Another
sister is. by government appointments,
head of the girls high school and
training college in Poonah, an UNI
usual honor, for it is not customary
to place natives at the head of gov.
eminent institutions. The younger
sister of this gifted family, the first
girl to take the degree of bachelor
of science in the Bombay university
is studying medicine in London, that
she may go back to India as medi
cal missionary.
Miss Susie and Miss Lima Sorabji
conduct the four schools in Poonah
of which their mother is head; the
former is here to plead for this work.
The schools hold about 400 children;
three times as many would come il

that is, yelled and clapped into a
zenana, whence they may not issue
forth. Two Bible women, native
Christians. follow up these children
and teach them in their homes. Dur
ing the famine Miss Sorabji did her
utmost for her stricken pupils, and
in her school are number of FAM
inc orphans: Besides her school
work, Miss Sorabji does great deal
of evangelistic work in all the
churches. Then she has gathered
many children into band called

open air as well as in churches.

ereign Power by Ceremony of
the Oath.

Alfonso XIII. will not be crowned.
None of his predecessors has been
crowned, for the ceremony of the
coronation of kings does not exist
| in Spain. The only essential act of
an official character to precede the
taking possession of the sovereign
power by the young monarch will
be the oath of fidelity, according to
the constitution. and this will be
sworn to before the president of the
chamber of deputies and the assem-
bled cortes. The ceremony of the oath
will be celebrated with great pomp in
the hall of assembly of the chamber.
All of the senator's anddeputies will be
gathered there, dressed in uniforms
or evening clothes. The king, ac-
companied by all the royal family
and followed by his court, will go
tc the parliament in the historic
coaches which are one of the curios-
tiles of the palace, and one of the
external signs the most priced of

Women who wish to preserve the

and Che definite curving in of the

and, sitting or standing, always pre-
serving her erectness and pose, the
result being that at the end of that
time it has become second nature to
her, and she never afterward loses IT.
This in a great measure preserves
the figure.
The correct stature of the human
figure is said to be six times the
length of the feet. Whether the
form is slender or plump, the rule is
supposed to hold good. The face,
from the highest point of the fore
head to the chin, is one-tenth of the
whole stature. The hand, from the
wrist to the middle finger, is the
same. From the top of the chest to
the highest point of the forehead is
seventh. If the face from the roots
of the hair to the chin be d;vided into
three equal parts, the first deter
mines the place where the eyebrows
meet and the second the place of
the nostrils. Chicago American.

When no tempestuous waves there be,
Or wildly threatening gales
When Joy and Love wi, shining rays,

Oh! easy then TO sing His praise,
Who~ieads us day byiday
But when dark clouds obscure the sky.
And chilling winds arise,
When trials in our pathway lie.
And daylight fades ard dies
When night shuts down upon the soul
In darkness, mist and gloom.
And pillows DER our life-boat roll,
And shadows dark uploom-
When bloom no more the heart-sweet flow

And when no more the silent hours

Becca glanced anxiously in the face

Becca was, in the meantime, fairly
flying over the road, her mind full of
forebodings in regard to her father,
and in terror at the loneliness around
her.
She had passed over nearly half the
