nails, for lelSJ or all things did they de-
sire to taste of their own medicine of
death But the king only laughed the
more.
"Hearkeu yer' he said. pointing to the
crowd Ot Us who had been smelled out.
I'VE were doomed to death by these false
prophets Now glut yourselves upon
them. Stay them, my children! Stay
them all save this Young man!
Then we bounded from the ground
We hurled ourselves upon the crowd of
the IsanuSis. in vain they screamed
and cursed and struggled; we slew them
all.
At last it was done and we drew back
from the heap of the dead. Chaka drew
near and looked on the piled up heaps
Of the slain and the cloud of dust that
yet hung over them.
There they lie, MOpo," he said.
There lie those who dared to prOphesy
falsely to the king. That was good
word of thine, MOpo, which taught me
to set the snare for them, yet methOught
saw thee start when Nobela. queen o.
the witch doctresses, switched death on
thee"
Thus he spoke, then ceased-fOr 10!
something moved beneath the cloud of
dust; something broke a way through
the heap of the dead. 1t was Nobela,
she who had doomed me, she whom l
had smitten to earth. come back from
the dead to curse me!
She was dying, but the fire of hate
yet burned in her snaky eyes.
Hail. king" she screamed.
"Peace!" he answered, thou art
deadr'
Not yet, king. | heard thy voice
and the voice of yonder dog, whom |
would have given to the jsckals, and |
would not die till had spoken. ! smelled
him out this morning, when was alive;
now that | am as one already dead. l
smell him out again. He shall bewitch
thee with blood indeed, Chaka-he and
Unandi, thy mother, and Baleka, thy
wife. Think of my words when the as
segai reddens before thee for the last
time, king! FAREWELL" And she gave
one great cry and rolled upon the ground
dead.
THE witch lies hard ana dies hard"
said the king carelessly, and turned
upon his heel.
Q And thus ended the great Ingom noco
of Chaka, the greatest IngombocO that
ever was held in Zululand

Now after the great smelling out of
the witch doctors, Chaka caused watch
to be kept upon his mother Unandi and
his wife Baleka, my sister, and this re-
port was brought to him by those who
watched, that the two women came to
my nuts by stealth and there kissed and
nursed bOy-One of my children. Then
Chaka remembered the prophecy of No
bella, the dead Isanusi, and his heart
grew dark with doubt But to me he
said nothing of the matter, for his ewes
then, as always, looked over my head.
He did not fear me or believe that
plotted against him, who was his dog.
Still he did this, though whether by
chance or design | do not know. He
babe me 60 on journey to a distant
tribe that lived near the borders of the
Amaswazi, there to take count of GER
tain of the kings cattle which were in
the charge of that tribe, and to bring
him knowledge of the tale of their in
crease. So | bowed before the king and
said that l would run like a dog to do
his bidding, and he gave me men to 90
with me.
Then l returned to my huts to bid
farewell to my wives and children, and
there l found that my wife Anadi, the
mother of Moosa, my son, had fallen
sick with a wandering sickness, for
strange things came into her mind, and
what came into her mind that she said,
being, ash did not doubt. bewitched by
some enemy of my house.
Still must go upon the kings bust

thought, of Umslopogaas, the son OF

Pears
Soap

Whoever wants soft
hands, smooth hands, white
hands, or a clear complex
ion, he and she can have
both; that is, if the skin is
naturally transparent; I'M
less occupation prevents.
The color you want to
avoid comes probably nei-
Their of nature or work, but
of habit.
Either you do not wash
efectually, or you wash too
effectually; you do not get
the skin open and clean, or
you hurt it.
Remedy.-Use Pears
Soap, no matter how much;
but a little is enough if you
use it often.
All sorts Of stores sell it, especially
druggists; all sorts of people use it.
