4 Curious Sect in Africa.

a new and curious sect has recently
grown up in Africa, the Bcna- Riainba. or
"Sons Of Hemp" Il society of smokers.
who, calling themselves ''fricnds," are
bound together by ties of mutual hospi-
tally. 1t has had some new light thrown
upon it in the account of Journey up
the Kasai by Charles Somcrvillc Batc,nan:
"lts initiatory rites arc n profound and
uniathomablc mystery, and whether to
describe it as secret brotherhood, re-
ilglon, or society for the propagation
OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, am uncertain. So far
as the smoking OF lhiamba fhcmp] itself is
concerned, there can he no reasonable
doubt but that the Matchbox introduced
1T primarily for purposes of fraud. since
persons under the influence of that poison
Gus narcotic are temporarily insane, and
therefore mt the mercy of the first cruel
and crafty trader that came across them.n
Another authority, however, thinks that
society grew out Of IL political revolution
among the Bashilenge people in 1870,
when the Progrcssist party broke down
old commercial barriers, and the custom
of bhang or hemp smoking was introduced
from Zanzibar to become conc of the
most bancful institution in Central
Africa"

Webster: Every man must educate him
self. His books and teachers are but
helps-the work is his. A man is not ed
ucated until he has the ability to summon,
in an emergency, his mental powers in
vigorous exercise to effect its proposed
object. 1t is not the man who has read
the most who can do this; such a one is
in danger of being borne down, like a
beast of burden, by an overloaded mass
of other mems thoughts. Nor is it the
man who can boast merely of native Wig
or and capacity. The greatest of all
warriors who went to the siege of Troy
had not the pre-eminence because,
nature had given him strength and he
carried the largest bow, but because self
discipline had taught him how to bend it.
