Of the surrender at the north locates that

Now il Is useless to tell a man who has

1t took place in the open air under q big

be made of, they get hot and prevent
circulation Of air about the eye. Hence
they are really injurious. In September
and October, and, indeed, it is believed,
in all the hot months, flies abound in
the Nile valley. Men were to be seen
with their faces yelled, for no sooner
did one open ones mouth to speak than
flies flew in and got into ones throat.
They come in myriads; their torment is
terrible. In the hot months, between
Dongola and Ambukol, midges rise at
sunrise from the river, and, darkening
the sur and sky, madden those who are
unprotected. At sunset they disappear.

The only fear is lest the threads
should catch fire and let the water spill
into the lamp and over the table. The
flame must therefore not DO too large.
The paper does not burn, because it is
wet, and even if it resisted the wet it
would not be burned through, because
