Yet,. that is practically what happened to Hugo Bechstein Smith, who, as a baby bad been sbipwrecked. on a deserted South Sea islandi and brought up by three missionares-a, Vctorian English-. man, a stolid. Gernian, and -a vivacious Frenchffan. Ail of Hugu's ideas of the outside- world bad been given to him by. these tbree men. When be was ^twenty they taiked to him about woffien and mar- niage. The German told him that wom- an's place was in the kitchen. and the Englishman said that womian should be worsbipped and placed on, a ýpedestal. Marriage, the German told Hugo, would present a simple problem if hie just put bis wife in the kitchen and left hier ~there ,for "all wome n re h1appy:ine kitchen, provided it is their own kitch- en," Pastor Schmidt told Hugo. With aIl these instructions Hugo wva, prepared to face the world. An Amer-. ican yacht rescued the four, but the three missionaries secretly swam back to shore ieaving Hugo to enjoy the henefits of Western civiization. His amusing adventures in England pro- vide good entertainment for the reader.
