Men Who Live I'm TraaS-

MACH W hO Live III Trees.
DISCOVERY OF AN AFRICAN FOREST TRIRE
wHosE HUTS ARE IN MID AIR,
From the y. y. sun.
DIR. Louis Wolf, who made the sensational
discovery u while ago that the Sankuru river
afforded Il more direct and more easily nuvi-
gated route 10 Central Africa than the Cougo,
made another discovery in the course OF the
Same journey which was quite as remarkauie
II not SO important. On the banks OF the Lo-
mani river, Tar toward the center of the Con-
tIneDt, he says he found whole villages that
were built i'll the trees. The natives, partly to
protect themselves from the river when in
HOOD and partly TO make it more difficult for
thelr enemies TO surprise them, build their hutS
on the limbs of the trees where the thick foliage
almost completely hides the structures iroln
view. lhe inmates possess almost the agility
OF monkeys, and they climb up TO or descend
from their little houses with astonishing ease
II is believed they the only Africans yet
known WHO live in trees.
In Borneo some OF the natives are said to live
In trees, and Mr.. Chalmers in his book on New
Guinea tells OF u number of Tree houses that
he visited OH that island. These hutS which
are built near the tops OF very high trees, are
used Tor lookout purposes, OF as d place of
refuge tor women and children in case Uf AT
tack. Ihey are perfect little huts, with sluping
roofs aud platforms in front, to which extends
the long ladder, by means OF which the natives
reach the huts. Mr.. Gill Describes one o. these
houses which was used as a resi- deuce. He says
1t was well built, but that 1t rocked uncomiort-
abiV the wind.

No Wonder They Are Startled.


In a country where a creased cartridge shook
an Empire, it is easy TO see that the invention
OF oleomargarfne and its compounds may rock
the foundations OF the state. AccOrdin z to the
Times telegram from Calcutta, a panic has
seized upon the Bengalese on account oil u dis
covery that ghee, the clarified butter which
they eat themselves, and which they offer 10
their gods, Is icing adulterated with fat. The
Mohainmedains Lar that their ghee may be
l,rded;the Hindus are equally afraid that their
ghee Is mixed with the Iat vi oxen or OF sheep.
To eat such iat Is in their eyes deadly sin, 10
offer it 10 their gods an Infamous sacriege
Hence legislation in hot haste against impure
gnee, anu suspension of all standing orders in
order to hurry the bill through all its stages
without delay. Who can say now many sous
might be lost forever If Oieomargarne were
once TO be introduced among the naiives OF In
dia? The Yankee buttermakers have already
much to answer for. Their oleomars arIne,
wien treated with 30 per cent of butter, is hi.
