belts, are richly jeweled and worth as
much as 1000 silver dollars. But we
shall not see that sort at q picnic. The
upper garment of men and women alike
is cloth or cotton jacket (kabaia). In
stead Of buttons the women use for fas-
Jennings a number of gold or silver
brooches. The ruen largely affect brass
buttons. Over this jacket the females
wear another sarong. which is made to
meet over the head, and serves the
damsel as q shade, and when she
pleases rs veil. The feet of all are
protected by kind Of wooden sandal.
All these garments are loose. are a poem
for harmony of colors, and there is no
fold that does violence to beauty and
grace. This is poor enough picture Of
cur picnic party, or 20 or 100 Malay
men, women. boys and girls passing,
joking and laughing along their pleas

and parangs, in case tiger or leopard

they trust Tuhan Allah to provide at the

hear the gentle lady reader say. "Why,
preparation of meats and pies and con-
fections, you know, is such bother"
Our outing party now feel that they
have gone far enough and they may
halt, no matter just where-for every
where is lovely-so long as they are in
the vicinity Of a mountain and its water
pools. So pool is chosen as one likely
to contain in its black depths suf-
ficiency of good, fat fish. Tho men at
once prepare to dynamite this pool, OF
else throw the fish paralyZing tuba root
into tho water. Then 20 men leap into
the pool. while number of women are
stationed at the shallow and lower end
to catch the escaping fnny tribe. All,
no big fish are caught! They must be
lying dead or benumbed at the bottom
of the pool. And now the toldest swim
mers dive in and far down. They search
the bottom, they even thrust their hands
into the water filed caves of the rocky
sides. One by one tho divers come pant
ing up. Some Of them grasp in each
hand great. shining, silvery fish. What
luck! Two fish at a time, each 10 or 10

A JOLLY DAY OF SIMPLE PLEASURES
IN THE JUNGLE.

Happy-No Tiresorae Advance Prepare
ton OF FOod-How Fish Arc Captured
and Cooked For the Banquet.
OF all picturesque sights Malay pic
mic is one Of the prettiest. With the first
dawn Of morning the start is made.
Nothing as yet can be seen distinctly
A few saffron arrows of light are thrown
up in the eastern horizon, and distant
mountain heads begin to glow. Stimuli
taneously a stir arises in the village,
and gaping villagers of all ages begin to
issue ont from their graceful atap houses
and make toward the place Of rerdez-
vous. By the time the party has gather
ed, some 20 minutes, the horizon seems
to explode, wide rush Of Grange light
spreads near and far, and the great hot
sun comes mp, painting. Then follows
the most delicious hour of the day. a
hundred hues Of green are brought out
into shining reiief< every dewy leaf be-
comes prism in which rainbows float.

COO together seeking the carly bug. gor-
geous butterflies come forth to dry their
spangled wings on leafy shrubs, while
far n the jungle often the hoarso, gut.
tural, fearsome growl of the Mahyan
tiger sounds bass to the chorus.
The picnickers are now under way.
Before them is a march of six or seven
miles through virgin jungle and open
spaces of country. That will consume
some two or three hours. Some OF the
females are mounted upon elephants

their lofty mounts and enjoy the ride,
If We may judge from their faces and
frequent peals Of laughter Most Of the
party Is afoot. They are in holiday COS

Costly Words,

The inebriated husband sobbed. "You
may regret such language, said he,
when am gone.''
II won't either!''
However, she did regret her words
later, when they were brought up in
court in the case she had against the

the strength Of her thoughtless remark
the jury awarded her 2 cents.-Indian-
