nearer to her and sitting down at her
feet. What you want to know they
never tell.''

it's long continuance, shifted at one
and the other, and his master broke
forth suddenly.
IF they could talk, If they could
tell us now" he said, moving his hand
out over the surrounding objects, ''then
we would know something. This 'kop-
je.' If it could tell us how it came here!
The Physical Geography says" he
went on, most rapidly and confusedly,
''that what are dry lands now were
once lakes. And what think. is this:
These low hills were once the shores
Of lake. This 'kopje' Is some Of the
stones that were at the bottom, rolled
together by the water. But there is
this: How did the water, come to make
one heap here alone in the center Of the
plainY 1t was ponderous question.
No one volunteered an answer. "When
1 was little" said the boy. IT always
looked at it and wondered, and
thought great giant was buried un-
der it. Now I know the water must
have done 1t, but how? 1t is very won
derful. Did one little stone come first
and stop the others as they rolledY
said the boy, with earnestness, in a
low voice, more as IL speaking to him
self than to them.
"Oh. Waldo, God put the little 'kopje'
here" said EN-, with solemnity.
"But how did he put it here"
"By wanting"
"But how did the wanting bring it
hereY
Because it did"
The last words were uttered with the
air Of one who produces a clinching
! argument. What effect it had on the
Questioner was not evident, for he
made no reply and turned away from
her.
Drawing closer to Lyndalrs feet, he
said after awhile in low voice:

speaking speaking of the old things,
of the time when the strange fishes

stone now and the lakes were here,
and then Of the time when the little
Bushmen lived here, so small and so
ugly, and used to sleep in the wild

poisoned arrows. 1t was one Of them,

know why. but he wanted to make
something beautiful; he wanted to
make something, SO he made these.
He worked hard, very hard, to find the
juice to make the paint, and then he
found this place where the rocks hang
over, and he painted them. To us they
are only strange things that make us
