From an article under the above III

ing: 'On the Congo there are no
beasts of burden, there existing merely
a manual transport, the porters being
the natives OF the Bakongo tribe, in
habiting the cataract regions. I'm
phys que these men are slight and only
poorly developed; but the fact of the.

day little manioc root, IN ear or two
of maize. or a handful OF peanuts, pro-
nounces them at once as men of singu-
larly sound stamina. Small boys Of
eight and nine years old are frequently
met carrying loads of twenty pounds
weight.
Throughout the cataract region the
general accepted money currency is

natives for transporting a load tC

rations. amounts at the present day TO
five dollars for load of sixtv-fye
pounds. Five wears ago the cost was
only one-third of this amount; but it
has increased on account OF the oppo-

that they have established stations at
Stanley Pool for the ivory trade on the

group. Il believe she always writes

Then she isn't advanced and she
still loves her husband" said the first
What do YOU mean?" half Il dozen
women demanded ut once.
just this" was the answer. The
married woman of to-day is of three
classes-the woman who puts her hus-
band aud his interests first, the woman
who considers her individuality and
interests of equal Importance with her
husbands. and the woman who con-
siders that her interests should domi-
nate his. The first woman considers
the name of her husbands family alone
amply honorable and dignified and
writes her name as your friend does.
The second adds her husbands name
to her own family name and writes
Mary White Smith, The third writes
the family names with hyphen be-
tween them and wishes to be known as
Mary White-Smith.' The first woman
is conservative; the second, progress
i've; the third. advanced" ,"
