CHOICE MISCELLANY
Infant Widow. Of India.

The East Indian papers record a Gu
rious case arising out Of the terrible
custom of infant marriage in that
country. The daughter of Justice Moo
kerjee, a learned Hindoo. was married
when she was under ten years of age,
and she became a widow two months
after the ceremony. Though he could
not resist the early marriage custom
sanctioned by his creed, the Judge
stood out against that other custom
which condemns the child widow to
life long misery In her dead husbands
family, and he determined to have her
married again. The husbands rela-
tives claimed and obtained a power of
guardianship over her child, but be-
fore 1t could be exercised the second
marriage had taken place, and there is
to be a legal struggle to determine
precisely how the claims of the dead
husbands family can be reconciled
with the living husbands rights. The
judges action will have the support
of many Hindoos who are eager to
break down a custom that condemns
thousands Of young girls to life that
is almost worse than slavery. But the
power of the older schools of thought
is great, and British lawmakers and
administrators, though deploring the
evils of infant marriages, must shrink
from interference with customs which
claim to have religious sanction.

like a gentleman-but useless, quite
useless. So the less said about invok-
Ing the law the better for-some peo-
pie. You'll agree with me, dare say.
And now, concerning your friend Ger
aid Erroll-I have not the slightest de-
sire to see him play cards. Whether
or not he plays is a matter perfectly
Indifferent to me, and you had better
understand it. But if you come here
demanding that l arrange my guest
lists to suit you you are losing time"
Selwyn, almost stunned at Ruthven's
knowledge of the episode in his rooms,
had risen as he gave the man the lie
direct.
For an instant, now, as he stared at
him, there was murder In his eye.
Then the utter hopeless helplessness
of his position overwhelmed him as
Ruthven, with danger written all over
him, stood up, his soft, smooth thumbs
hooked In the glittering sash of his
kimono.
"Scowl II you like" he said, backing
away instinctively, but still nervously
impertlnent, land keep your distance!
II you've anything further to say to
me, write It," Then, growing bolder
as Selwyn made no offensive move:
"Write to me-" he repeated, with a
venomous smirk. "It's safer for you
TO figure as my correspondent than as
my wife's correspondent. L-let go OF
me! W-what the devil are you d-d-do'
ing?"
For selwyn had him fast, one sinewy
hand twisted in his silken collar, hold
ing him sauirming at arms length.
"M-murder!" stammered Mr.. Ruth
ven.
"NO," said selwyn, mot this time.
But be very, very careful after this"
And he let him 90 with an involun-
tary shudder and wiped his hands q
mis- handkerchief.

Apples In Boxes.


This subject would be threadbare
late were it not for the urgency of the
facts. The apple barrel is by no means
satisfactory package, especially to
the shipper of good apples, and in spite
of obstacles the apple box is making
progress. A larger proportion of last
years apple crop was sold in boxes
than ever before. These facts came
most painfully to the attention of east
ern apple growers when all through
the winter months Oregon apples in
boxes sold at good prices in all east
ern cities, while New York and New
England fruit was a drug in the mar
ket. 1t was situation which could
leave no doubt in the eastern apple
growers mind that something has to
be done. Naturally the eastern grower,
who sees his market thus cut out from
own apples. He considers also the
fancy packing, trademarking and 9th
er selling devices at which the west
ern men are so clever. All these
schemes he must adopt, initiate or
improve. But there is one thing more,
and very important one, which must
be taken into the account. The east
ern grower must grow better fruit.
Eastern apples are conceded to be of
better quality than Pacific coast stock,
but the eastern grower has relied quite
too much on this single fact. The
western apples are allowed to have
the best color and finish, but again
the eastern grower has taken this esti-
mate too much for granted. The high
quality of New York and New Eng
land apples must be preserved, aug
mented and then advertised. The fruit
must be carefully hand thinned on the
trees in order to get a uniform grade
for box packing. The color and ap-
pearance must be improved by better
care. Western methods of cooperative
packing. shipping and selling must be
adopted. These are large reforms
here pointed out, and the eastern farm
er is hard subject for reform, but
these improvements have all got to be
made. Otherwise the Oregon apple
grower will appropriate the entire east
ern market. and the eastern apple grow.
ers win 60 into the milk business.

Ruthven stood quite still, and after
q moment the livid terror died out in
his face and a rushing flush spread
over it-a strange, dreadful shade
curiously opaque-and he half turned,
dizzily, hands outstretched for self
support.
Selwyn cooIly watched him as he
sank on to the couch and sat hudd1ed
together and leaning forward, his soft,
ringed fingers covering his empurpled
face.
Then Selwyn went away with a
shrug Of utter loathing, but after he
had gone and Ruthven's servants had
discovered him and summoned physi-
clan their master lay heavily amid his
painted draperies and cushions, his
congested features set, his eyes partly
open and possessing sight, but. the
whites of them had disappeared, and
the eyes themselves, save for the pu-
pills, were like two dark Sits filled
with blood.
There was no doubt about it. The
doctors, one and all, knew their busi-
ness when they had so often cautioned
Mr. Ruthven to avoid sudden and ex-
cessive emotions.
That night Selwyn wrote briefly to
Mrs. Ruthven:
I saw your husband this afternoon. He
Is at liberty to inform you of what
passed. But in case he does not there Is
one detail which you ought to know-your
husband believes that you once paid
visit to my apartments. 1t Is unlikely
that he will repeat the accusation, and l
think there is no occasion for you to
worry. However. 1t is only proper that
you should know this, which is my only
excuse for writing you letter that re-
quires no acknowledgment. Very truly
yours, PHILIP SELWYN.
To this letter she wrote an excited
and somewhat incoherent reply, and,
rereading it in troubled surprise, he
began to recognize in it something Of
the strange, illogical, impulsive atti-
tude which had confronted him in the
first weeks of his welded life.
Here was the same minor undertone
of unrest sounding ominously through
every line; the same illogical, unhappy
attitude which implied so much and
said so little, leaving him uneasy and
disconnected, conscious of the vague
recklessness and veiled reproach,
dragging him back from the present
through the dead years to confront
once more the old pain, the old bewil-
derment at the hopeless misunder-
standing between them.

MARYs EDUCATED HEN.

Mary had a little hen
With feathers white as snow.
She flew across a garden fence.
Where hens ought not 10 so.
Now. Mary was q pretty maid
Her age was twenty-five
And Mary wasn't married yet,
Because he didn't arrive.
This hen had been a Vassar Giri
Who tried In vain to wed.
Her soul had gone into hon
AS soon as she was dead.
And thus this hen had brains. you see.
And pitied Mary SO.
She flew across that garden fence
To help her catch beau.
A bachelor heard her fondelay
And got the egg she laid.
He followed home sweet Mary's hen
Not thinking of fair maid.
He handed in the big white egg
And got a smile so sweet
That Mary's hen stood on one leg
And trilled the band to beat.
So this cute hen laid every day
In the nest Just DER the way.
And the bachelor brought the egg right
back
And got more smiles for pay.
One day she laid a double egg
The hint the bachelor caught
So this is what he had to say
When home that egg he brought:
Here are two eggs within one shell.
Why can't we two be one?"
And Mary whispered: Very well.
Here. take me. l am won"
Before the veil falls on this tale
Just get this truth down pat
1t pays a maid to keep a hen
And not to nurse a cat.
