HINDU WON'T
EAT WITH
HIS WIFE

INDIA always has been q coun-
try Of social complications as
= well as political confusion.
The caste system, which has de-
veloped to an almost incompre-
hensible state of 1ntricacy. Is re-
sponsible for this condition.
Originally there were but four
castles. There were the priests
or Brahmins-the warriors, the
husbandmen and the slaves.
No one of these four divisions
could take part in the activities
of the other. This was thousands
of years ago.
Since that time and from those
four classes has developed a sys-
tenn of social distinction which
cannot be imagined unless one
goes there and lives among the
Hindus themselves.
For in India nearly every serv-
ant has another servant to wait
on him.
For instance, q valet. would
think he was not only lowering
his dignity but infringing against
the rules of his religion were he
to lift a piece Of luggage. He
might become defiled by touch
ing something which a person not
of his caste had touched.
Who touches the food in its
preparation, and who does not,
seems to the stranger as mys-
terious as the new game of "mah
jongg" does to the amateur.
And what the women of India
may do and what they are not
permitted to do would fill a book!
OF course, according to the true
Oriental idea, no man looks on the
face of an Indian woman but her
father, husband, brothers and the
immediate members Of her family.
A Hindu woman won't even
allow q doctor to see her! He has
to stand behind a curtain and
guess what is the cause of her
illness.
But stranger than this Is the
fact that there are even restric-
tons regarding where and with
whom women may eat their
meals.
To the traveller in this country
of castles and curious customs, 1t
is amazing to find that Hindu
lady does not eat with her hus.
band--not even in the same room.
She isn't permitted to prepare
his meals or touch the food he
tastes. For to do so would rem
der it unfit for use."

N 1907 q little daughter was
born to Andrew the Second
Il Of Hungary and his wife Ger
trude. She was named Elizabeth.
The Queen-mother did not have
the pleasure of seeing her little
girl grow up and the joy of shap.
ing her life. Because when she
was four years old she was be-
thothed to Louis w, Landgrave
of Thuringia.
Because of the betrotl1al of this
child, who was not much more
than a baby, she was taken to
Warburg to be educated under
the supervision Of her future
mother-in-law.
The Thuringtan court at this
time was a very worldly and
pleasure-loving place. Although a
young and impressionable child,
this little girl showed a marked
aversion to all the frfvoltties
which she saw. In contrast. she
evinced a strong interest in chari-
ties and religion. Even the most
innocent pleasures did not seem
to attract her.
When she was fourteen years
old Elizabeth was married to
Louis. She acquired a strong IN
fluence over her youthful hus-
band, and after much difficulty
finally won his entire approval
and support in her charitable
works.
A pretty legend has come down
to us of the manner in which
Elizabeth converted Louis to her
point of view.
It is said that at times Louis
became very impatient with
Elizabeth on account Of what he
called her excessive charities and
her endless giving of aims. He
had reproVed her on several occa-
sions.
One day, while Louis was re-
turning from hunting. he saw his
young wife carrying a heavy GUN.
die filled with bread.
He stopped his horse and
brusquely ordered Elizabeth to
open the package. When she
tremblingly opened 1t, he beheld
nothing but a mass Of beautiful
roses!
In 1927 Louis died. leaving this

. young widow with three children,
His tragic death occurred while
he was on a crusade to the Holy
Land.
Immediately Louis brother
claimed the throne, depriving
Elizabeth of the regency. His ex-
cuse for the unjust act was moth
ing more than a pretext. He de-
clared that Elizabeth was wasting
the government funds and reduc-
ing the estates in her excessive
aims.
- With no warning, the poor
young widow and her three chill
dren were driven from their home.
They were not even allowed to take
the barest necessities with them.
They lived as outcasts for some
time and endured the greatest
hardships. Finally Elizabeth's ma
ternal uncle, Egbert. Bishop of
Battenburg, heard of her poverty
and offered her a home adjoining
his place.
A general wave Of indignation
spread through the country, and
a movement started by some OF
the principal barons-the knights
VI AhuIIHB ld-SpTAHB lHLO USIIlSG
to make reparation for the injus-
tice done Elizabeth.
The regency was offered to her
and her son declared heir to the
land gravate.
This Elizabeth not only declined
but renowned all power. Her
wealth she used for charitable pur-
poses.
Her life was spent in doing pen
ances Of the most unusual sever
ity, and in administrations to the
poor and sick, especially those af-
flicted with the most malignant
diseases.
Her power as a healer is be.
lieved by those faithful to her
memory to have endured even
after her death. which occurred
when she was only twenty-four
years old. Pope Gregory canon
lied her four years after her
death on account Of the reports
of the many miracles which were
said to have been performed at
her tomb.
