siderable lightning. These local disturb

Cupid in Many Lands
INDIA
BY ADDIE FARRAR.

In spite Of the endeavors of the Eng
lish to better conditions in India. the
young Hindoo girl has a hard time of

miserable existence she leads, would
willingly change places with the poor.
ignorant Hindoo woman.
In marriage she is sold as a slave
might be-indeed, she is not even sought
after by an intending husband, but is
offered in the open market to the htgh-
est bidder. There is no love making.
no sweet courtship life, to look back
upon, once her young days are over,
and she is not even consulted as to the
sort Of a husband she might like. Her
father goes out and offers her to any
man he thinks would make her a suit
able husband. and haggles over the price
as he would over a piece of merchan-
disc. Oftentimes she IL married in hel
cradle to tiny boy no older than she.
and thus grows UP married woman
with no chance of single life or maiden
happiness.
Maidens are dear in India. and a young
bachelor is apt to wait long time be-
fore purchasing a wife simply because
the cost is too great: Widows, however,
are cheap, and therefore the willy Hindoo
father of many daughters marries his
girls off to few Oh vases or bouque,
of flowers and, then. by throwing the
flowers into the well to die, and smashing
the vases and burying the pieces in the
ground, makes them ALL technically,
widows, and as such very cheap on the
market
The Hindoo bride does not wear her
wedding ring on her finger. instead 1t is
fastened through her nostrils, and this
ring Is the token that she is in subjec-
ton to her husband. In addition she
usually wears about her neck a wedding
necklace which is Of peculiar design.
Once married. she is virtually the slave
of her husband. and her duties are nu-
merous and arduous. When she goes
out with her husband she must walk
behind. not beside him. and under no cir
cumstances must she call him by his
name; instead she addresses him as "my
