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." .

All women worship physical
strength. 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? These are the
thoughts uppermost in
the minds of modern
men physical and
mental perfection,
strength and power.
vvno does not uxe
to be stronsr. to feel that he Is eaual
In strength to -any man of his age?

peal here made to you.
