CURIOUS CUSTOMS OF INDIA
Dancing Girls Married to Idols Rep
resentina Gods, Is One OF
the Oddities.

Parrots are taught in India to spend
a large portion of their time in re-
peating the names of gods. and such
a spokesman brings a good price, es-
pecially among business men, who
imagine that by owning such parrot
their spiritual treasures are accumu-
lating while they attend to their usual
occupations
Many of the dancing girls In India
belonging to the temples are called the
wives of the gods. At an early age
they are united in wedlock TO the
images worshiped in the temples.
This strange matrimonial connection
is formed in compliance with the wish.
es of the parents, who believe it to be
a highly meritorious act to present
beautiful daughter in marriage to
senseless idol.
The only foreigner who ever saw
the inside of the great temple of Jug
gernaut was an English officer, who
succeeded in gaining admission by
painting and dressing himself like a
native.
When the Brahmins discovered that
their holy place had been thus de-
filed they became SO enraged that all
the English residing at the seation
were obliged to flee for their lives.
Suspecting their pursuers to be more
desirous Of gratifying their ayarice
than their revenge, they strewed sill
yer money by the way, and while the
natives stopped to pick 1t up they
gained time and succeeded in reach

MOST SUITABLE FOR HOUSE
Hardy Fern an Ornament That VIII
Show Its Beauty for Many

The hardy fern with glossy leaves Is
1 much better plant for the table than
the delicate fernIike ferns. 1t be-
comes a life struggle" for any vari-
tty of fern In the dry and heated at
inosphere of house, and SO one
Ihould select only the hardest for ta-
Die decoration.
1t is well to be sure that there are
enough holes In the receptacle In
which the fern is planted to AFFORD
good drainage.
Ferns thrive best in a moist atmos-
phere, and this congenial atmosphere
can, with very little trouble. be pro-
yided for even the table fern. Have
a case made OF four pieces OF window
glass set in wooden frame. sufficient
ly large to cover one or more ferns
without brushing their sensitive
fronds. After sprinkling the leaves
(do not pour water on the soil in this
instance) plentifully with water, place
the case. which has no bottom, over
the fern, and allow 1t to remain thus
over night. In the morning take the
fern out and place near an open win
dow for few minutes, so that 1t may
breathe" the fresh air. A small
glass showcase, large glass bowl or
an aquarium would. of course. serve
the same purpose.

steel and are practically as good as

They are crude in shape and size and
many of them have heads on only one
side of the shaft. The nails have
