IT IS IN LIBERIA, WHERE THE
WIFE'S MOTHER COMMANDS
THE SON-IN-LAW.
"Liberia is the paradise of mothers-in
law," said Miss Agnes McAllister, the
author of "A Lone Woman in Africa,"
who has been for the past twelve years
in charge of the Garraway Mission, Li
beria. "A woman can command the
services of her sons-in-law for certain
duties, and it matters not what their
other obligations are, they must obey her.
For that reason daughters are exceeding
ly desirable possessions among Liberiuns.
"When a child is born some member
of the family is sent at once to the devil
doctor to inquire who it is and what its
name shall be. He goes up into the house
top, taking with him a cow horn. This
he blows to call the devil, and the devil
is supposed to tell who it is that has
come back into the world. For the peo
ple believe that every new-born child is
some deceased member of the family who
has returned to life among them. It
sometimes receives the same name it had
before, and sometimes the name is
changed.
"A young mother is never permitted
to have the care of her child, an older
woman being called in. These nurses may

their common chairs, which is nothing
more than a stick of stdVe wood, out
doors, with a pepper board by their side.
They will rub one finger in the pepper
on the board, then thrust it as far down
the child's throat as possible, and mas
sage and stretch the throat thorougnly
until the poor little creature is almost
strangled and throws up all that is in
iis stomach. The wretched infant is thtn
laid down to sleep on its little mat on
the floor by the fire.
"When a child Is nine to ten months
old small bells are titd to its person at
its wrists, waist and ankles. These are
Intended to coax it to walk. The mother
then takes it to a devil doctor, who
makes a charm, which she ties about its

without eveir these charms, and when I
asked for an explanation I was told that ]
the child was supposed to be some one
who had returned from the spirit world

They were wise in their day and genera
tion, were Aunt Lucy Favorsham and
her married sister, Miranda Burr. They
had all the feminine maxims by heart,
and repeated them often, being incurably
loquacious.
"Make up your mind to this, Lillian,"
Mrs. Burr would say to her daughter.
"It is as easy for a girl to love a rich
man as a poor one, and a great deal more
sensible. I've been poor and I know what
it means. You dwindle up like an acorn
in a wet season. I tell your aunt often
that you can't even be iiigh minded with
out a little money to manage it on.
Really I believe half the folks who go
to hell get there because the were so
poor they couldn't be good. Envy, hatted
and all uncharltableness, those are the
things that come from poverty. Romance
doesn't last as long as a cabbage moth
without some money to keep it going.
But with money it's possible to get along
quite agreeably i n the house with almost
anybody."
Miranda drew her similes from the
farm life which she endeavored to for
get; her maxims, on the contrary, were
a tribute to the comfort of a city estab
lishment, in which she endeavored, with
but inuuierent success, to act the grand
lady.
Aunt Lucy Favorsham was a trifle
more adroit in dealing with her niece
than the girl's own mother was.
"Books and pictures and music and the
society of cultivated people—those things
go with money," she said. "And liberty.
That goes with money, too. It always
seemed to me that a woman was no bet
ter than a chattel when she had to ask
a grudging husband for every cent she
got. It's the humiliations and petty sac
rifices which go with poverty which of
fend me. But no one can know the meas
ure of those who has not had experi
ence."
The girl at whom these remarks were
directed looked somewhat wearily out of
the window and saw a young man comirrg
down the street. She flushed scarlet,
then arose impulsively and went to meet
him, catching up her hat and sunshade
from the hall table as she passed.
"Dick," she said, as she ran down the
steps to meet him, "let's walk to Jeffer
son square. I've been in all day. Don't
you think the vacation is tiresome, Dick?
I've been wishing and wishing today that
I was back at school."
The young man looked at her tenderly.
"If you were back at school," he said,
"I should not have the pitaeure of this
walk."
But the girl did not look pleased at
thle obviously sincere compliment.
They think about different things at
school," she said. "It is better to think
about history and geometery and-and
that, than about "
Sh.- hesitated, confused in the midst of
her neurile speech.
"I don't understand," he said.
"No. I suppose not! I couldn't expect
you to, Dirk/ with a swift change ot
expression, "how do you like this gown?"
"It's a pretty little gown, dear. I no
ticed it the minute [ saw you. You never
had it on before, did you?"
"No. I made it. Do you know why?
I wanted to see how I would look if 1
were a poor man's wife and made my
own things. You say it is pretty,, Dick,
but that's because you didn't know. It
is hideous. There isn't a seam in it
that's right. Everything is the matter
with it, and I am never going to wear it
again."
Dick Underwood looked perplexed.
"I dare say we'll be able to manage
dressmakers," he said, somewhat doubt
fully. "But how straase you ure today,
dear—angry and not like yourself."
"I am not going to marry you, Dick.
I've made up my mind. I know you
thought my answer was going to be dif
ferent, but 1 have decided that it is to
be no. We would wear on each other
borrjbly, I know we would, if we were
to be worried about—about bills, and all
that. I can see just how miserable it
would be. It's everything which isn't
beautiful. It's hateful and common and
degrading. I've been thinking it aP
over "
The ycung man's eyes were blazing.
"No. you haven't," he denied, "you've
been listening! It's your mother and
your aunt who have been instructing
you. And they have succeeded even i;.
making you think that love is not beau
tiful, have they? It seems impossible,
but they've done ie, and—and If you don't
mind, Lillian, I'll leave you here. You
won't mind walking home alone." H b
lifted his hat and turned away from her,
tense and angry.
"Dick! Dic-k!" The cry was involun
tary and freighted with keen alarm and
pain. The young- man went on down
the street, not looking back. Lillian
Burr walked home ami faced her mother
and her aunt, white fae'ed and with lips
set.
"I've followed your advice," she said,
accusingly. "I've turned my back on
poverty."
Slve went up the stairs to her own room
and the women heard her turning the
key in the door.
"Poor child," said her mother, with a
thrill of real compassion. "It's a little
hard for her now."
"Yes," admitted Aunt Lucy. But neith
er of them ftk remorseful. They looked
on themselves in the light of surgeons.
That night the girl folded up the little
blue frock she h.id worn and laid it away
in a box. "With it she laid a bunch of
letters, a withered rose and a copy of
"Lucile."
"What a spectacle I am making of
myself," she soliloquized contemptuous
ly. "Still," she reflected, "I can hardly
be said to be a spectacle when there are
none by to see me. It's my own fool
ishness, end no one will ever know any
thing about it."
Two weeks later Erard Allen said to
her:
"I love you dearly, Lilian. I have ask
ed your mother's permission to speak to
you and she is quite willing."
"Oh, yes," said the girl with some bit
terness, "I know she is entirely willing."
"And are you? Are you willing to be
come my wife?"
"Why not?" responded the girl, sharp
ly, and the lover had to make the most
he could cut of that ungracious accept

Mrs. Erard Allen came to be known as
a brilliant and successful woman. Her
beauty, her wealth, her graciousaess of

Aunt Lucy Favorsham remarked at fre
quent intervals, and Lillian's mother ac
quiesced. They had, however, some com
plaint to make, in spite of their freely
spoken admiration.
"Lillian never comes to sit with us,"
they said one to another. "If we go to
her house she is always surrounded by
others. We are invited there to dinner
or to a tea. She never appoints a time
to be alone with us. Do you remember

The woman they spoke of knew many

them to none. She had her temptations
—for she was beautiful, and men guessed
that she did not love her husband—but
she conquered them. She became a stu

Winnipeg Correspondence of the Ne
braska State Journal.
To few people is it known that Salt
Lake City, in Utah, is not the only ter
ritory in full and undisputed possession
of the Mormons. Yet such is the caae.
1 have just returned from a visit to
Alberta, where I found a big colony of
the Latter Day Saints firmly established
in these Northern lands. The colony in a
unique and interesting one. Some time
ago a couple of hundred Mormons simply
"trekked" away from Salt Lake City into
the Northern wilderness, and after
marching TOO miles came to their present
location in Alberta and settled. They
soon had quite a nourishing little town.
Ttady named the place Cardston. First
they commenced to cut down the white
firs, and, with women and children press
ed into service, proceeded to erect sub
stantial dwelling houses, shops, stores, a.
blacksmith ship, a grist mill and saw
mills.
It has several unique characteristics
which are original in the extreme. New
"York and other large cities have tfuir
rich people, who, after spending a winter
of hard work in the city, leave it at the
beginning of summer for the giorie3 of
the summer resorts; but there is no
record of the population of an entire city
deserting their homes at the beginning
of March and returning In October. T/hig
is just what the 8,000 Mormons of Cards
ton do.
It is a curious custom, but as soon as
the time arrives for the planting of crops
the whole population move out in various
directions, and, taking- up their summer
residences far apart, begin industriously
the pursuit of fanning. When their
crops are safely housed and they have
g-athered in the gleanings, their sociable
nature asserts itself and they again take*
up their residence in the city, where they
settle down for the winter. A.s the stories
of the prosperity of the new Mormon set
tlement have traveled abroad, others ot
their kind have arrived from Salt I^ake
City and established new towns close at
hand, until at present the colony consists
of live to\vr>p, with the principal one,
Cardston, as the capital of the entire
community. Here are the names of the
towns, with the number of inhabitants:
Mountain View, 380; Etna, 390; Leavit, 200,
and the little hamlet ot Colles, which
boasts of only 25 souls. Polygamy has
been entirely abolished, the men build
ins homes and providing for the women
wh^m they married previous to the anti
polygamy laws of Utah. The colonists
are very industrious and thrifty, and
they are going to work with a will to
make a success of their district. The
surroundings would lead one to believe
that they dri/am of a second Salt Lake
City in Canada. The foundation is well
laid and great developments must follow.
In conversation with one of them he
said. "This is the best country our peo
ple ever possessed. We are determined
to improve it, and its progress cannot De
retarded. We like the laws of Canada,
and are well treated by the people."
The Mormons have taken a contract
from the irrigation company to excavate
and construct a portion of the canal, and
in adding to a cash subsidy are taking
a land grant which has already been se
lected, amounting to 18,000 acres in two
reserves of aboujt &.000 acres each.
As to the fitness of these people to be
come agriculturists and as to the pos
sibilities that await them there is and
can only be one conclusion. They are
farmers and pioneers, or rather, pioneers
and farmers, and pursue farming on
scientific principles. It is no haphazard
work with them, and all that is neces
sary to demonstrate this, is to visit Card
ston. Here is a district which for ye^irs
remained unoccupied and was given over
entirely to cattle ranches, efforts on
the part of those who attempted it prov
ing that mixed farming or grain raising
frock, old-fashioned and frowsy, she
presented herself one day at the door
of a certain poor man.
"Dick," she said, "I have been a wid
ow for two years, and I have . waited
for you to come for me, but you did
not."
"Lillian! Have mercy. I have resisted
the temptations twenty times each day.
I am almost as poor as I ever was."
"I've come in the little blue dress I
made, Dick. It'll do nicely for a wed
ding dress, if—if you think—if you think
a wedding dress is needed."
He was incredulous.
"It is a fantastic dream," he said. "It
cannot be true that, after the mockery
of endless dreams which faded as I
grasped then;, you are- here, in the
flesh."
She threw off her hat and clasped her
hands upon the table before her.
- "Look at me, Dick," she commanded.
"See how my eyes say 'I love you.' They
look with perfect frankness and natural
ness for the first time in many, many
years. For the first time the tones of
my voice seem to ring true to my ears.
For. the first time I feel honest with my
self. This is me—this woman who says
'I love you, Dick.' Of course, if you
like, you can send me away. Hut I'm
so poor now, and—" She pretended to
look melancholy.
"It must be a dream," he murmured
still. But there is no harm In em
bracing this dream tenderly, with many
broken words, with tears which would
rot fall, with all the starved heart's un
utterable hunger.
could only be successluily followed in
a few localities.
When the advance guard of the Mor
mons arrived the stake selected was far
from other settlements, and today is ov r
fifty miles from a railway. With long
hauls to market operating against them,
the colony continued to yrow until they
are prospering, with schgnls and churches
open the year round, and the land be
ing worked and crops successfully raised
The universal statement of the settlers
was that it was a choice location. Farms
on the hillsides and in the valleys "were
producing splendidly.
Having been brought under, a hißh
state of cultivation by inigation in pome
parts, the rainfall in others bein;? suffic
ient, all manner of grains, roots and
vegetables are grown, and in comperiii'.::
with those raised hi other portions or"
the district they always have beep suc
cessful. Every fanner has a large
of horses and rattle, and evidences of
prosperity seem to exist everywhi
The soil i 3 good, bi :!ipt a brown loam
with a clay subsoil: It is an open coun
try, without timber, but is we!! watered
with rivers, and the river bottoms are
filled with a light growth of po
and much of this has been destroyed by
Ores. The country is high and roiling
to the west, and many pockets are found
among the hills that have good natural
hay meadows. I saw some places on
the river bottoms where there waa suffic
ient timber to make good shelter for
stock, cut into the banks alcove like,
and well wooded.
To the east the country is more un
dulating and nit so hilly. The soil shows
better on the surface.
It is conceded at Oardston that ad
jacent to and near the foothills small
grains can be successfully grown, both
south and west, but north and east irri
gation is required. The grass is of an ex
cellent quality, very nutritious ami in
variety and produces fat rapidly. The
cattle and horses, are still at large, and
I saw hundreds in good condition that
have had no feed a<; yet but what they
found themselves. This hay cures on the
ground, and is rarely frozen before ma
turity, but cures by nature and affurds
excellent winter pasture.
There is a cheese factory at Cardston,
and it has been profitably conducted.
There are also a cheese factory and
creamery at Etna. At Card-ton there is
a small gristmill, and about twenty
miles distant in the timber the settlers
own a small sawmill. There are at Cartls
ton two large department stores carrying
heavy stocks. They each did a business
last year of between $50,000 and $T
There are also two large implement ware
houses. These people raised about a
100.000 bushel of grain in IS9B. Th.re
is a large public school in Cardston, na
tional in character and graduated, em
ploying three teachers, with an average
attendance of 150 pupils. There are also
public schools established at Mountain
View, Etna and Leavit, which have a
large average attendance of pupils.
