II Is welt known fact that Hindoos

that I'm 1910 i'm the seventy-three vii
lagos OF the Allahabad district there
were only three girls under twelve
years of age. and three years later in
the town of Agra there was not one
to be found under that age. All had
been pat to death.
The English government has very
naturally passed severe laws against
this abOminable crime. but to evade
them the Hindoos allow their girls To
live until the age of twelve, after
which they do away with them by ad-
ministering poison la small doses.
