The League has since suggested a "model farm" as an an important supplementary exhibit. During the last year the Leasrue has been actively engaged in the work of education and organisation, with the encouragement wtoich comes from an overwhelming correspondence and ap parently unlimited possibilities. A broad, unoccupied field has been open ed for the League, and the original proposition to serve as a clearing house and to act as a federating agency was ffully justified by the re sults of the. flrfet season of effort. Within sixteen month afrer the organization of the League (he In creasing applications for suggestions and literature make necessary a sec ond enlarfrmet of the plan of work.

The estimation In Which they are held was strikingly manifested In the per fectly astonishing amount of courtesy shown to me as the secretary 6f the society that sends them. Officials of high standing lavished polite atten tions upon me, sending me fruits and flowers, and everywhere I received the warmest welcome. I " The hospitals are the most Impor tant part of our mission work, as It is through them that we establish friendly relations with the natives. The Mary S. Ackerman Hoyt memo rial hospital in Jhansi Is a beautiful place. The sites of our mission bun galow and memorial hospital have been wisely chosen outside the ga'es of the walled city, which with Its narrow streets and densely crowded thoroughfare represents many types of life In India. " The progress of women in India is an asou'ed fact, for already in stances are seen. Several have taken degrees In lite university lately. One of them -a the mother of five fhll drn. The question of child marriage must be settled, however, before re form is fully established.

Scientists claim that the exercise necessary to operate an ordinary type writer to gether witth its noise, tend to injure the health and cause nervous ness. A Oerntan inventor has there fore perfected a machine which Is operated by air pressure on the key board, and does away with the noise and much of the tabor.
