WHERE WOMEN SELECT MATE
In New Qulnea It Is Considered Be
neath the Dignity of Men to
Take Time to Court.
So far as proposals of marrlngo nro
concerned, in New Guinea It Is always
leiip-yenr, for lu that Island tho men
consider It beneath their dignity to no
tice women, much less to tnnko over
tures of marriage. Consequently, tho
proposing Is left fo the women to do.
When the ebony hello falls In lovo
with n man she sends n piece of string
to his sister, or, If ho has no sister,
to his mother, or another of his ludy
relatives.
Then the Indy who receives tho
string tells the dusky bravo that tho
particular damsel Is In love with him.
No courting follows, howover, for It Is
considered beneath n Now Guinea gen
Helium's dignity to wusto time In sucV
u pursuit.
If tho mnn thinks ho would like to
wed the lady, he meets her nlone, nnd
they decldo straight nway whether to
murry or drop tho idea.
In tho former enso tho betrothal 1.1
announced. The mnn Is then branded
on the buck with charcoal, whllo Ct
mark Is cut Into tho woman's skin.
No breach-of-promlso actions are
possible In New Gulnon, though If tho
ludy Is Jilted her friends may hunt her
lover up nnd "go" for him. On the
other hand, If tho dark damsel proved
faithless, she Is liable to bo eaten by
her betrothed If ho cntches her.
