curlous ways of Hopa nzasas.


In this age OF advanced views on
matrimonial entanglements and obliga-
lions ii is refreshing to read OF the Gu
rious marriage customs of the gentle
Savages of the Hopi tribe in Arizona.
Here the Hopi maid does the wooing,
for the women OF the HOpi brand are
held in much higher respect than are
the coppery sisters of kindred tribes.
And when the Hopi maid has selected
the youth OF her choice she goes to his
house as Syitor for his hand and testi.
fes both to her devotion and her indus
try by grinding corn beneath his roof
until be is sufficiently impressed with
her qualities to yield and name the
day.
When the Hopi maid leads the man
Of her choice to the tribal altar, she
does so in the midst Of elaborate cere>
monials Of long duration, and when
ell is over she takes him to her home
Nor does she yield this ownership
when she weds. On the contrary, the
house. the fields and all the property
save the herds belong to the wife.
This. as will be seen, greatly facilitates
the Hopi method of obtaining u df-
vorce, for when the wife tires Of her
husband she simply takes his saddle
from her floor and tosses 1t out through
her door, and the divorce is completed.
