WOMAN OF THE ORIENT. Madame . Cama Talks of India Wants to Oust the British. Mme. Cama, who gives in the Inde pendent an account of herself and the customs of her country, is described by the editor as "a Parsee lady visiting this country to study our institutions and to create sentiment against .British rule in tndia." "I was born a high class Parsee." writes Mme. Cama, "into a home of opulence and lore. The Parsees are a mere handful in India, being. but 80,000 among a population of 300,000,000, but we are the most advanced according to modern standards. "Our women are educated and some even have collegiate degrees and prac tise medicine and other professions only recently adopted to any extent in Euro pean countries. We mingle with men socially, we sro about unveiled, and in fact we have adopted a part of the dress of the Europeans. I would not give up the beautiful flowing draperies of the Indian costume, the nearest approach to the Greek robes famed hi art. but it Is necessary In practical living that we wear a shirt waist of white silk or cashmere to protect the throat and arms, wnereas the Hindu women, se cluded In tne house, go with arms and necx Dare. "The Parsees were Persians who fled from religious persecutions 1,800 years ago, much as did the Puritans from England many centuries later. During aU these centuries we have refrained from Intermarrying , with the Hindus nd Mohammedans and so have retained our lighter color and maintained cer tain sianuaras. .v- "In my grandfather's, day marriages In India were made l by the Daren' j: In the next generation the boy and girl freedom of choice In Intelligent families as In Europe. "Throughout India, as in China, the natriarchal system has Prevailed. In a sense It should be called the matrl archate for the mother-in-law Is su- oreme. This is most natural, consider ing the extreme vouthfulness of the hrMn "When child marriages are contracted It is natural that the little girl, who Is taken from her own home and piacea in that of her husband's parents, should be brought up to obey her mother-in-law. Even when she has children the belle mere, in her superior wisdom, governs these dui ir tne oriue lives long enough her turn at queening It will come. This system is only now in vogue among Hindus. "The patriarch's will Is law In money matters. Under his roof tree is an enor mous household. Usually the sons live with him until they are 80, so that their own children are nearly grown. "He deals out even the family Jew els to the various daughters-in-law when they attend social functions (for women only.) and the Jewel wearing Is indiscriminate. Everything belongs to 'the patriarch. "in the strict Hindu households men and women seldom see one another. All society is confined to ladles dining with nna Another. Thev never see their hus bands in the daytime or at any meals. The gentlemen take pride in providing elegant costumes for their wives, but never have the pleasure of seeing them worn in public. "However, most of us Inherit our dresses. As styles never change we wear the same identical garments that our grandmothers wore. "Our robe is merely six yards of silk, or satin, or crepe, or. cashmere, bordered with a gold or embroidered passemen terie. Wa llterallv have Scores, hun dreds of these, in beautiful colors. They are easy to pack In traveling, we drape these ourselves, each time we wear them. "Americans Imagine that we are re ligious fanatics. The first thing asked me is about religion. I, like most of you. innerit mv religion. "I am a Parsee follower of Zoroaster because mv parents were, and I suspect you are a Christian a Catholic, or Methodist, or Presbyterian for the same reason. I am not at all Interested In occultism or mysticism, or anything but humanitananism ana a iree India. I suDpose we are regarded as religious cranks because .some of the Hindu priests have lectured In this country. "A few years ago there was estab lished the Indian national congress. This meets yearlv and is doine an enormous-work In- educating public opinion. Mv husband and I both are members of thin: he sitting with the moderates. I with the extremists. - "The congress professes loyalty . to the" government.' but the extreme party is gaining rapidly, and these openly advocate swaraj seir-government. Gradually tny eyes have been opened and I now believe with my whole soul that Great Britain is glutted by power and that Kipling sounded a note of warning in his 'Recessional.' I know whereof I speak, for I have seen, the high and the low." . MUNICIPAL JUDGE ANSWERS TO WRIT (Special DUpatch to The Journal.) Tangent, Or., Feb. 18.

They like to look on men as strong, capable beings, afraid of nothing Beatrice Fairfax in Bos ton "American.'1 A woman has no use for a weak man. She admires that "afraid of nothing" spirit which a weak man lacks; that spirit of ambition which makes a man get up and hus tle. She likes the ttrong man because he Is a protection; he has strength, ambi tion, vim and is not afraid of work. His eyes are bright, his gait is full of energy, his speech Is positive. The strong man Is the real man. Would you like to have your friends point to you and say: "There goes a strong man?" Do rou not wish your eye o be so bright, your step so Arm and your form so erect that men and women will ad mire you and remark at your manly bear ing?
