In this place, ono OF tho most unclvil-

cheerfully performing all the duties
that devolve upon her as Q missionary
She is Miss Martha Kah, Of Cheyenne

the theory of the Taylor missions being
that tho missionaries shall suppori
themselves. IL is marvellous how eco
nomically Miss Kah and her recent com
rades lived in this savage part of the
world; and yet they have always beer
prepared to entertain Hospitality any
traveller who comes here.
Here is picture of the house in which
this solitary woman is living Many OF
the missionaries in Western Africa live
in nicely-furnished houses brought from
Europe or America, and good deal OF
their food is specially prepared in Lon
don or Paris for use in tropical coun
tries. But the Taylor missionaries have
to build their own houses, except that
the iron used in them is imported. Thii
house, except it's corrugated iron sides,
was made from materials produced in
the country, and by unskilled native
workmcn. 1t is difficult to conceive
how much patience and perseveran6rar
required to build a house under such
conditions. This building was erected
under the direction OF Mr. Sortore, with
few extra workmen besides those regu.
larlv employed on the plantation The
picture is faithful representation Of
the home of this brave white woman,
who, under the most trying circum-
stances, has been left wholly alone in
the work She came out to Africa to do. -

ArNAs LAVA DEPOSITS.
Their circumference is Fully One Hundre'
and Seventy Miles.

Their circumference Is fully one Hundred
and seventy Miles.
Strada Etna, Catanla's longest street,
beginning at the very edge OF the port
side, leads almost due north toward the
volcanoes peak, within few feet OF IL
900 feet above the level OF tho sea, and
fully twenty-eight miles away, The
area OF country dominated by the mount
ain, and al times subjected 10 overflow
Of lava, is astounding. Its circumfer-
ence is fully l70 miles, and 1t describes
an irregular circle, Of greatest diameter
from north to south. Catania stands at
the extreme OF southern DETECTION in
its southern segment. The Alcantara
river rising in its northwestern foot
hills, flows TO the northeast, thence
circles its northern edge, and finally
sweeps around to the southeast into the
sea. The Simeteo river, having its
source at the northeast, near that Of the
Alcantara, circles the base, first TO the
southwest, then southwark, and then
flows around and into the sea 10 the
southeast, below Catania. From Catania
TO the mouth OF the Alcantara, the
Ionian Sea on the east, running with
almost straight wall Of shore, cuts a
thin segment out OF this circle. But
within this extraordinarily distinct cir
Gle Of 40 miles there is not square
inch OF tho earth's surface over which
the lava has not at some time poured,
which one can not now distinguish TO be
unadulterated lava soil, and which is
not subject to-day, or any other time, to
a new coating of molten lava. The en-
tire majestic contour Of the mountain,
broken here and there by lessor vo'ca-
noes, is visible from any point at this
tremendous base-edge; but more strange
than all else is the density Of population
within the lower and cultvably luxu-
RANT rim. Threading the base, along
the seashores Of the Alcantara, around
to the south along the inner, or north

up to the very edge Of its lesser volca-

knee-breeches are still de rigueur.
These fashions also prevailed in En-
gland, where the dandies particularly
affected buckskin pantaloons
But the supremacy OF pantaloons was
short-lived, though they struggled man
fully for existence, surviving until
within the memory OF our fathers, to
whom they were known as 'opera
tights" and we're worn by men about
town. IL we may believe Tom Ingoldsby,
within the last fifty years:
Lords. squires and knights
In their opera hats and opera tights.
As carly as 1908, trousers extremely
short, reaching only about halfway
down the calf. were worn "a IN mode
dnglafse'' by the young men Of fashion
in Paris; and with straps, or buttoned
at the ankle, had become general
throughout Europe in 1870.
In 1880 pantaloons had quite gone out
excepting with some old gentlemen
who had or fancied they had good legs.
White duck trousers were immensely
fashionable, particularly with military
men.

Pantaloons derive their name from .

of 1880 shows him dressed In wide trou-

can not find any instance of his wear
ing what we l1ually call pantaloons,
viz, long, tight breeches ceasing at and
passing round the ankles.
The history of the revival OF the
trouser, as we wear it to-day, begins in
England about 17T0, when long, close
atting pantaloons, worn with boots or
CATERS, came into use for morning wear,
though knee-breeches were still the cor
rect thing for full dress. Its fortunes
in France are generally typical of its
progress in other countries, and are sufr
hciently amusing to be detailed here.
In 1891 few bold pioneers began to
lengthen their knee-breeches in both di-
rections, and by 1895 had got them up
under their arm-pits. This was fashion
so ridiculous that it could not be but

short-lived. The lengthening downward
was, however, persisted in, and thence
forward pantaloons were worn as in En-
gland, with boots or CATERS.
About 1897 they began to be worn
wider and outside the boots, but this
was only permissible in the summer and
out of town. In 179s a few daring spir-
its ventured into Paris in "this out
rageous attire hut were promptly sup

for pantaloons, and even in some cases
for trousers; whence they we're called at
drst in opprobrium, by their foes
later, in -glorifcation by their own
party, 'sans-culottes.
Previously to this we find trousers
worn " the French navy. A sailor of
Che year 1856 wore blue and white
striped trousers; in 1902 they were
striped with the national red, white and
blue; and in the same and following

breeches were made ran short, and trou.
sers were extemporized for some of the
recruits of the same striped material.
There were companies and even whole
regiments in these striped trousers.
But this was only temporary ex.
pedient. The officers, and not they
alone, but the men, too, objected to the
lack of smartness, and preferred tc
button the twenty-four buttons on the
old-fashioned gaiter to wearing the more
convenient trouser. do not know the
date of the resumption OF trousers in the
French army, but they were substi.

English army in the year 1928, says q
writer in the Cosmopolitan Magazine.
Under the consulate and the en-

vantage in favor of the former, which
