politically. What is left of the beau tiful spirit. of the tranquil mysticism, except mournful shade of memory, the note of lingering sadness, the longing after something nobler, soul satisfying, which is not there? In spite of upheav- als, the Indian woman of today still reigns supreme in the sanctuary of her home, performing her simple duties to husband, children, friends and rela- tions. Her education is still based on the profound teachings of the Vedas. Puranas, the Koran and the Stuff poets, which gives her extraordinary insight in- to the higher and deeper problems of life. With her philosVphic and religious background, she has far more accurate grasp of things than her western sis ter realizes. Nevertheless. there have arisen momentous questions which every Indian woman asks with no hope of satisfactory answer, at least in the pres ent times What am I for? What am to do with my life? How shall I be- gin and how shall I end? Overweight ed with the perplexities of modernism creeping into her life, she argues, "Is the world coming to an end?

Love Affairs of a Lonely Woman
By MART HAx

up the street toward even more crowded Broadway. Indefinitely she strolled, until she found herself in front of the splendid structure of old Trinity church. She had not observed it closely before, because of her hur- ry, but now-with the obvious hint from her strange employer that she was not needed for nearly two hours she yielded to curiosity and entered the gateway.
 She had read many stories of the famous building. and had seen more than one picture of its quaint church yard, where slept hundreds of the old citizens of the old New York, unheed- ing the mad throng of money seekers who sped past their final resting place to the busy offices of the financial dis trict.
 Jane walked slowly around the en- closure, reading this inscription and that one as she followed the paths be- tween the graves.
 T wonder whether they have found their happiness or comfort at last?' she unused, stopping before the vari- ous weather beaten stones. Here is one buried for more than a century, and she has no name of husband CT children on the stones near here Poor soul, she must have been lonely woman like myself, even III tlOSe Quleter uayS. POGr soul"
 As she passed the grave of Alex ander Hamilton, where, beneath the simple pyramida1 monument rested all that was earthly of Americas brilliant boy financier and statesman, lanes attention was drawn to a handsome woman, dressed entirely In black, who stood wringing her hands nervously and watching the gilded hands on the clock of the church tower with strange anxiety.
 Jane wondered at her agitation, and as she unobtrusively approached the other woman along the narrow walk she heard her murmur. unconscious of the girls proximity in a heart break ing tone:
 'The hour has come. It will soon be all over"
 The woman began walking agitated- ly toward the entrance of the church and, fascinated by the mysterious manner in which she repeatedly looked up at the clock, Jane-without realiz- ing that she was perhaps intruding, followed her through the portal, from which the great bronze doors were swung back.

 Jane did not go to luncheon.
 The events of the forenoon had i'm bued a nervousness which drove all thoughts of appetite from her, and she was still asserting lists, cards and ad- dresses given to her by Mortimer when her employer returned from his up- town engagement. He was accom- panied by middle-aged man, dressed with aggressively up-to-date cut, but -as it seemed to the girl-an untaste- full expenditure of money on the gar ments.
 T want you to meet my private sec- retary, MT. Hoskins," said Mortimer, as they entered the private office. This is Miss Brown, the young iady I was talking about to you. She IS not very familiar with the stock game but I know she will be a great help to us.'
 The other man, chewing an unlit cigar. glared almost savagely at Jane under his shaggy brows, and nodded his head with an unceremonious grunt.
 Jane flushed under his scrutiny. and then addressed Mortimer, as he sat down at the big mahogany desk with his visitor.
 'Is there anything in especial which you desire?" she asked him.
 Not that I know of," answered her employer. absent -mindely Did you enjoy your lunch?"
 Jane shook her head with the sug- gestion of smile.
 T wasn't hungry" she said. ''So I stayed in while Tommy, the office boy, went out. I suppose he is back now"
 "Ah." retorted Mortimer, that's a very bad way to start in your work He looked at his companion, wno nodded significantly.
 You had better go out now, Miss Brown. If you are not hungry at the start just take a long walk first. You don't need to get back until 3:S0 o'clock, as MT. HoSkins and l want to go over some private contracts. By that time some of the form letters should be here from the multigrarh man and you can begin addressing them. Run along now and get up an appetite on this fine sunny after noon."
 Jane could not understand such working hours, but tactfully took her hat from the locker and left the room. On the way out she passed Tommy, the office boy. who was dangling his legs in the outer office and delightedly reading a paper back novel.
 ''Oh, gee, that quarter came in handy, Miss Brown!" he exclaimed. Tt paid for a frankfurter and two ice cream cones and this detectatuff story and I got jitney to use tomorrer, be- sides"
 Jane smiled at the youngster, as she ansv cred:
 You'd better buy more food and less cones and literature, Tommy. But you know your own appetite. Be sure to answer MT Mortime- promptly if he rings your buzzer.
 She took the fleet elevator to the street level, uncertain as to where she would go. It was all so new and strange, and so much had happened in the last few days that she had been unable to schedule her time as she had done back in the little town, where every hour had it's fore-ordained task.
 And so. turning into the buzzing swirl of pedestrians. she followed them

TRYING TO BUY
 TITLE FOR SON

London. June 15.-Under the will of the late c. W. Wallace, an Indian merchant, Si,25o,0o0 is left to the British govern ment in the event of his sons failing to acquire "a baronetcy or superior title"
 The testator's only surviving son, Capt w. W. Wallace, has not received a bar onetcy and the executors are seeking to set aside the clause in the will on the ground that it is opposed to public policy. Such wills, they contend, embar- rass officers of the crown in the dis tribution of honors and induce other per sons concerned to adopt improper means to obtain titles.
 MT. Wallace explained his conditional gift by saying in his will /:
 T do this because I hold the view that, subject to the testator's right to make ample provision for his children, all possessions, great or small. if acquired from or through the people, as mine were, should return to the people. I am not acting fully up to this view in the case of my children, because the law does not enforce it upon all others"

Chaos of Wanderers in East ern Europe Presents an
 Alarming Situation

London, June S.-''In the condition of chaos in which eastern Europe is at present, famine and fatigue have pro- duced condition of lowered resistance to infection which favors the reprcduc- tion of the epidemics of the middle ages, says writer in the Lausanne GSwitzer- land) Gazette.
 Europe on their way to their homes, in- nunerable Russians on their way to the east from Germany, Germans, Austrans and Hungarians passing from Russia to the west Serbians and Croats striking south, Poles going to the north, crossing one another in indescribable confusion in Poland, the Ukraine, and Hungary. The absence of linen and clothing forced these prisoners to clothe themselves in rags or skins in the same way as the civilian population.
 The fight against typhus consists mainly in bathing the men and steriliz- ing their clothing. The Hungarians pos sess ovens, but no coal; the Czecho-Slo- vaks have coal, but no ovens. Soap and body linen are absent everywhere. Linen when put into the oven is so wretched as to be unwearable afterward and the owner has to be sent away clad in his sheepskin. Prisoners and wandering civilians know this so we'll that they take every means to avoid disinfection more than anything else; to avoid being stoved at station they get out of the trains when they stop at the smaller stations and enter the town in small, scattered groups which attract less at tention.
 The ordinary mortality of exanthe- matous typhus in endemic regions before the war in Silesia, Poland Russia and Galicia was from to per cent at pres ent 1t is over 20 per cent. It is true that the epidemic has not yet assumed the proportions of epidemic cholera in India, where in the town of Bombay alone there were 2295 deaths from Jan uary l2 to 25, 1919; but there is a great danger for Europe. All eastern Euro pean states realize this. and though they were at war with one another, yet they sent their delegates to the Budapest con- gress and decided to place their re- sources in common"

 From Epic Women of India" by 'Sha- linda" CBegum Fyzee-Raha hamin), in Asia" Magazine.
 Such is the tradition of Indian wo- manhood from prehistoric times until recent years, when the impact of wes- tern ideas on eastern broke the harmony of living with loveliness. An age of un- certainty and crudity crept in. The calm meditations of the maiden. her deep hu- man love. her simple, sweet aspira- tions were rudely shaken: the happy realms of her inner peace were broken by fierce winds of hybridism, and she was thrust suddenly into the region of throbbing steam engines.
