WOMAN AND WOE
Old Age in India Invariably Blends the
Two Into One
I have seen women under a burn
ing midday sun reaping in the fields
says a writer on India I have seen
them at roadmaking in the streets of
cities I have seen them loading en
gines with coal at railway stations I
have seen them in long procession on
the white roads of the plains carrying
great burdens on their heads like a
string of camels And I have seen also
in the eyes of every old woman whom
I have encountered every one of
them such misery adversity and an
gry bitterness as seemed to curse the
very air of heaven I have not seen
one happy old woman in the whole
country
Women follow through the village
like a dog at the husbands heel Ma
ternity is x6 excuse for the task in the
field and the duties of the house They
are servants without wages and with
out liberty to select another master
Before them is perpetual servitude and
if they are so abandoned by the gods
as to reach old age their certain des
tiny is misery dejection friendliness
and black despair I never knew all
the meaning of the word woe until I
looked into the face of an old woman
under an Asian sky
the women folk of the upper classes
in India speaking generally are more
the prisoners of their husbands than
the women of the helot castes They
do not labor except in cooking and
serving the meals of their husbands
but they are cut off from the world as
completely as a nun they do not even
know in many cases the male rela
tions of their husbands They are lit
tle more than caged animals taught to
do a few household tricks Chicago

COOKING A HEDGEHOG
Bake It In Clay Into a Solid Mass and
Carve It With an Ax
When a Maine Indian has the choice
of a hedgehog a skunk a woodchuck
and a muskrat for dinner he will se
lect the first named invariably and
takethe skunk as second ehofce leav
ing tbeworaichuck which is tbe otrfy
one of the lot a Maine whheman wjll
taste to the last Unlike the skunk
and the woodchuck which are loan
and unsavory except for a few months
in the fall or the muskrat which is
never fat and which has a strong
flavor in spite of parboiling the hedge
hog is always in edible condition and
has meat that is as tender and white
as that of a spring chicken
The method of cooking a hedgehog
is so simple that a novice can learn in
one short lesson When the epicure is
permitted to mako a choice he should
shun the large old males which at
times weigh thirty or forty pounds
The preparation consists in removing
the viscera washiug out the interior
and filling the cavity with slices of
fat pork peeled raw potatoes sprigs of
spearmint and wild celery from- the
brook
Then without removing the quills or
skinning the body is plastered thickly
with wet clay from the nearest bank
The muddy bulky mass is thrust into
live coals and covered with blazing
fagots to be roasted for two hours
p On removal from the coals the clay
is found to have been baked into a
hard and solid mass which must be
broken open with an ax or a heavy
stone whereupon the skin and quills
of the animal cling to the clay wrap
ping and fall away leaving the clean
white meat ready to be eateu New

A Bridge of Ants
A species of ants which spin silk is
common in hot countries The ants
nest in trees binding the leaves to
gether to make their nests The silk
used for this purpose is not secreted
by the adult ants but by the larvae
In order to attach the silken threads
and draw the leaves together the ants
must carry the larvae about from leaf
to leaf When two distant leaves are
to be drawn together a remarkable
method is employed Five or sis ants
form a chain bridging the gap between
the leaves each gripping the waist of
another in its mandibles A number of
such chains will co operate in bringing
two leaves together
