who ventured within reach Of her long,
muscular arms. She struck with a right
goodwill. and or more than one occasion
the men had reason to remember the
strength of her blows. Every kind of food
was obtained to tempt her appetite, but
with no avail, and she literally starved
herself to death. leaving the tiny Dokong
to struggle on alone. Fortunately little
Polly came to the park about this time,
with the hope that her company would
cheer the little orang. they were together,
when they Instantly clasped their arms
about each other, and nave since been
the best of friends. 1t was truly a case Of

derful life was ended.
Mrs. Starts marriage in Cincinnati on
May q. 1S4o, is of historical Importance in
ecclesiastical circles. Miss Harper was 16
years old and had beer: .%study.ng in college
with a view to missionary life in foreign
lands. DR.. Starr, a young physician, was
studying toward the same end and the
couple decided to wed.
Miss Harper had ideas of her own on the
question of the word ''obey'' in the ritual
of the church, and decided that for her it
should be eliminated. She found "a friend

pastor of Norris Chapel. Cincinnati. who
promised to omit the word during the
ceremony. and she was married. but
friends were inconsiderate enough to say
the marriage was invalid and at the next
meeting Of the general conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church, held in C.n-
%cinnati, the clergyman who had omitted
the word was .churched."
Finally the question became general. and
later. when decisive action was taken. the

the discipline of the Methodist church.
The Methodist Protestant church took. tho
same action later.
