Clothes and Negroes in Africa.

Poutney Bieelow in Harper's Magazine.
The bulk of the late authority is to the
effect that civilization at present harms the
negro by exposing him to diseases he never
knew before. In his savage state the black
man goes naked and becomes strong by a
constant contact with the fresh air. The
first thing done for the happy black heath
en- is to make him wear uncomfortable
clothing. in which he sweats and breeds
poisonous microbes with horrible fuency.
He never changes this clothing, and when
he gets wet he knows no better than to
dry them by sitting close to the fire. In
this way he contracts fever. and under
mines an otherwise robust constitution.
For this reason many magistrates hold
ilized customs by the natives. and the con-
sequeLt increase of disease. there will re-
suit check to the present rate OF in
crease among the blacks.
The death rate among the so-called Chris
tian natives Is larger than amongst those
In the savage state, owing to reasons above
given; but here again we have to remem-
Der that the savage state referred to Is
one protected by English laws, and the
Christians referred to are such as have
not learned how to preserve their health
under changed conditions of life. With in
creased pressure Of population in South
Africa, ana increased difficulty in wander
ing>away to new territory, the blacks will
be forced into pretty much the same social
state as they are today In the southern
part Of North America. The frightful rim
derpest which has ravaged their country
during the past year, combined with the
locust plague, has compelled an industrial
movement amongst the blacks undreamed
OF before. In former years the tribes at
fifcted by want OF food would have gone
upon the warpath and sought to plumber
some of their neighbors: today they send
out their young men to earn wages in the
fields or in the mines of the white man.
and thus silently this great revolution is
going on. making from day to day mere
real the rule Of the white man in Africa

TRADES THAT KILL.
Occupations That Gradually Destroy
the Men Engaged I'm Them.


From the New York World
People are afraid to travel by land or
sea, and take out all sorts of accident poll
icies, but there are many legitimate occu-
pations or trades that kin as certainly and
steadily as the most ill-regulated steam
engine. An old writer said that human life
was the cheapest thing on earth. Strange
to say. says an English trade journal. you
cannot brighten the workmen who know
how dangerous is their trade, and not even
higher wages will tempt them from such
death traps. Lead, in the form of bullets
and shot, is a deadly, dangerous thing. but
1t is also death-6ealing to all who use IL in
their work, as house painters, gilders, cal
leo printers, tyre founders, potters and
braziers.
Mercury is foe to life. Those who make
mirrors, barometers or thermometers, who
etch or color wool or felt, will soon feel the
effect Of the nitrate of mercury in teeth.
gums and the tissues of the body. Silver
kills those who handle it, and photograph
ers, makers Of hair dyes and ink and other
preparations ere long turn gray, while a
deadly weakness subdues them. and soon
they succumb. Copper enters into the COM
position of many articles of everyday
life, and too soon those who work in bronz-
ing and similar decorative processes lose
teeth and eyesight and finally life. Max
ers of wall paper grow pale and sick from
the arsenic i'll its coloring, and match MAX
ers lose strength and vitality from the ex-
cess of phosphorus used in their business.
Nitric acid Is used by engravers, by etch-
ers in copper, by makers of gun cotton and
those who supply our homes with lovely
picture frames. Its fumes are poison to
the human lungs and soon destroy them
completely. Ammonia kills the soapmak-
ers; workers in guano grow deaf: hydrocy-
anic acid deals death to gilders. photog-
raphers and picture finishers. while zinc is
a fatal foe TO calico printers, makers of
optical glasses and meerschaum pipes.
Mankind is by nature brave. and very
few are deferred from action because of
supposed danger. If the great builders and
engineers Of the world would stop and ask.
How many lives will this undertaking
cost?' Ii Is probable that the world would
be without some of the greatest triumphs
of modern thought. Everyday life and
common occupations are full of silent cour-
age, and all around are workers who die In
the harness and are true heroes without
knowing II.

Training Husbands After Marriage.
Tv,r, Wovuar,, uor,n rxn-.---x~-

From women's Home Companion.
1t really is asking too much of a woman
to expect her to bring up husband, and
her children, too. She vainly imagines
when she marries this piece of perfection,
with whom she ia so blindly in love- that
he is already trained. or rather, that he is
the one human being in the world who
has been perfect from infancy. and who
never needed training. She knows that
mothers have to put in twenty years OF
close study and hard work before they can
turn out a man or woman who won't be a
social pest. She never dreams Of the Curl
o1s fact that mothers always train their
daughters to make good wives. yet never
think of training boy to make q good
husband.
