HINDOO WIDOWS WIN RIGHTS.
Those of th Highest Class Arc Nov
Being Allowed to Marry.
From her role of half-toy. half-slave
to man, penned up In the seclusion of
the aenana (woman's apartments)
the woman of Blndoostan Is rising to
equality with man. India la dally get
ting anxious to accord Its women
humane and a Just treatment Sex-
Inequality had decreed that while the
widow was forced to remain a widow,
This injunction Is no longer being
faithfully observed. Widows of the
highest castes are being allowed to
marry. Moreover, Hindoos are mak
Ing special efforts to establish homes
where young and old wldowa are kind'
ly treated and taught how to be
nurses, doctors, teachers, and mli
aionaiies. The aim of these Institu
tions Is to Inspire the widows to help
toward the uplift of Bast Indian so
ciety and also to make them capable
of -supporting themselves Instead of
being charges on their relatives,
has beeavth case heretofore.
Polygamy was never very common
In India, but to-day It la doomed. To
day the woman of India Is leaving the
privacy of her apartments, going to
modern schools tor education, and en-
tering th arena of public activity, to
help along the evolution of Hlndoo
stan. Schools and colleges, especially
designated for girls and neighborhood
centers meant for the advancement of
matured women, are coming to be
pronounced features of East Indian
cities.
Liverpool's Drunkenness.
In no centra in the Kingdom have
mora earnest efforts been made, to
fght drunkenness than in Liverpool,
but ths latest report of the head con
stable shows that no great success
has attended these efforts. Indeed,
the convictions under this bead, which
In 1303 were 7 .877, and In 1SK)T
S 725, were last year 1,205, although
It should be stated that the head con
atable regards the figures as Indica
tive of the measure of police activity
rather than ot the amount of drunk
nncsa. The supervision of tha pub
lic bouses la very strict, and the
causes of the evil appear to be an in
crease In drinking In the home foster
ed by carts going from door to door
and supplying beer If need be, on
credit; the resorting to public houaes
of women early In to morning, and
grocers' licensee. The Liverpool city
Justices have just been considering
these matters, and have passed
aerlea of resolutions in favor of ac
tion concerning them. Liverpool has
already Initiated many reforma In re
gard to licensing; we trust Its latest
efforta to further cope with a great
vil may again be fruitful of results.

What Cynics Am.
Cynics was the name applied to
rhool of philosophers founded by An
tis'.lienes, a pupil of Socrates. The
njnln teuet of the extreme Cynlca i
that civilization Is a curse, and true
hitppircss can be obtained only by
gratifying the moat primary physical
appetites which man has In common
.vl'h brutes. The general attitude of
the Cycles, aa distinguished from that
jt the Stoics, who regarded every
ihlni? in the external world with In
difference, was one of contempt Tbey
neie not an Important philosophical
sebtiol numerically, but attracted at
tention largely by their eccentricities
nnd insolence. On account of their
contempt for refinement their name
caire subsequently to be applied to
anv one who takes a mean view of hu
man life.
Clearing House Operations.
A clearing house Is an agency estab
lished by ths banks of a city, to
uhlcli all checks drawn upon one city
bank nnd deposited In another am
cent fur payment. Every morning
there is a clearance or settlement of
accounts. In which the checks deposit,
ed In each bank and the chocks drawn
upon each bank are separately sum
med up and compared. If there la
more deposited In a bank than there
is drawn upon It the bank receives th
difference in cash, if the reverse ia
the case, the bank pays tbe balance
Instead of receiving it. Th term
clearance means either the act of set
tlement or the sum of all th checks
presented for payment. The amount
of business done by ths clearing house
ia a pretty aure index of th general
condition of buslr.ua.
