three or four days. Commander Cam

people in the village were there, he
says. Some men blowing pipes and
beating drums stood in the centre Of n
great circle OF men who danced around
them, grooming and bowling and max
ing a great noise. This was kept up
day and night. Suddenly, at the end Of
the third day, the bride came out Of n
hut dressed in all the iinery tho village
could muster. She wore small apron
made III piece Of linen which bad
been given TO the chief, and was adorned
with feathers, beads and shells. She
was carried on the shoulders o. very
stout woman, and supported by a woman
on each side. Being brought into the
midst Of the dancing people she jun ped
up and down on the shoulders Of the
woman. A number Of beads and shells
were given 10 her, which she scattered
about unfortunately, and the people
scrambled for them, as they were con-
sidered TO possess somevirtue as charms.

was carried on 50 energetically that the

Then the husband, a great big fellow,

women OF indomitable wills and
love for the best and NEST sensible

who, knowing they have sound
judgmentand capacity for intellec.
iual force, never swerve from the
exercise of duty, regardless of the
opinions OF others. She sees her
daughter or sister, with languid
eyes, loss of color to the cheeks,
lost appetite, disturbed slumbers, Il
feeble totterlng gait, complaining
of headache, palpitation and gener-

OF all these female troubles, and at
