TIE MAHARAnEE OF KoocH BEHAR- ;
province In India. 1t In not COM
mon thing for a woman to rule an
Indian state. but In Bhopal the law
Of succession does not exclude them
One of the most interesting person
alities Mt the coronation was the ma
haranee of Kooch Behar. Behar Is a.
rich state. and the distinguished ma
harajah of Kooch Behar has fabu-~
lous income and palaces that are all
most as beautiful as the Tai Mahai.-
The maharajah is the leading Mason.
of India. In Queen Victoria jubilee
year he was made a past warden OF
the grand lodge of England Owing
to their enlightened attitude and
friendship for England many honors4
have been bestowed en- this indians
prince and princess by the British
government. When they visit Eng
land they are made much of in So
ciety.
The maharajah or gaekwar of Ba-
roda and his wife are the most inn
portant of the Hindu ar.stocracv-
The maharanee. like many of the pro-
gressive Indian women, has an Eng
lishwoman as her secretary and has
English governesses for her daugh-
ters. These young ladies are beauti-
full and accomplished, and many
titled Englishman would be glad to
wed one of these lovely heiresses, but
in one thing the Indian aristocracy is
strict-it does not care TO intermarry
with Europeans, for the reason that
any one doing so loses caste. Prince
Duleep Singh, who In 1898 married
Lady Anne Coventry, daughter of the
Earl of Coventry and sister of Wis.,
count Deerburst. who married Miss
Virginia Boynyng of California, is
one of the few Indian princes that
have dared to ignore the rule of caste.
He spends his time entirely in Eng
land, where he was educated, and
only in name and appearance differs
from the average Englishman. Should
Prince Duleep Singh take q notion to-
return to the land of his fathers 1t Is
quite likely he would find himself
coolly received by the native aristoc-
racy because he dared to violate the
ancient law of marrying out of his
caste
While the Indian ladies still cling.
to the veil and live comparatively
retired life, there are evidences that.
the leaven of progress is working EVEN
in the zenana. The missionaries have.
instilIed many new ideas into the heads
of these eastern women. Child mar
riages ani in case of death of the
boy husband. the enforced lifelong
servitude and widowhood are being
rebelled against. There is craving
for education and for a life that may
include some of the interests of the
European woman. Queen Mary, who
is progressive and philanthropic, will
encourage every movement that bene~
fits the women of India, in whom She
became deeply interested when she.
visited that country during the vice

ELECTRIC HOUSEKEEPING

Cooking by electricity! To a great
majority of women, even I'm emhghten.
ed Idaho, this lis yet an unknown ven
ture. But to those who have seen,
tried and been conquered, 1T lis a
twentieth century blessing, and the
only wonder to them lis why they did
not try 1T sooner. To the average
woman electric cooking de a DIM
mysterious and unattainable Utopia
that they wish they had, but think
1T impossible to try because of the
COST Electricity lis not for the rich
alone; 1t lis a money saver, a time
saver-and the work! Does anyone
ever enjoy building fires and carry
ing out ashes that are blown over
everything I'm the house or piled in
an umsightby heap In the back yard?
The cost of electricity is the bug
aboo of the housekeeper. Kilowatt
has mysterious sound that frightens.
When you buy electricity you pay
for DIT by the kilowatt hour. Kilo-
watt means Thousand watts, and
kilowatt hour is the term signifyihg
a certain measure of electric consllm-
ption, just as the cubic foot is the
term for gas. The common rate for
electricity for cooking purposes is five
cents a kllowatt hour. If it takes
two hours to do the family washing
with an electric washer. and you con-
sumo 1000 kilowatts, you have spent
five cents. A washerwoman would
cost $3.50, her dinner, and require
more time. An electric washer will
soon pay for itself.
A vacuum cleaner can be rum for
less than three cents an hour. A first
class machine costs 1925, which SCUM
DIS big, but where is the business man
OF today who hesitates when he is
told a typewriter costs 500?
AhC SNWWlOn N tVSCuIC COOhldlS dp-
pamtus is absolute, without delay,
ashes, smoke, dirt or exhaustion of
oxygen. When an electric cooking
range Is to be installed 1T should be
connected with the main supply, not
attached to the lights. The cost then
IL much less.
In Idaho, where electricity is so
abundant, the women have an unusual
opportunity to give electric cooking
a fair test. Visit your nearest power
plant where cooking utensils are on
exhibition, and ask questions. You
will be agreeably surprised at what
Is told you. 1t Is a safe venture to
say that i'm five years the electric
stove will be in more general use than
any other.-Idaho Club Woman.
