A KNOTTY CASE.
IN which 1t 10 shown That Cows Arc

man Body in Africa.

A Uganda woman had married three
husbands at different times, and had
had son by one Of them-the second.
says writer in Blackwood. The faith
er unfortunately died, and the other
two quarreled about the possession Of
the son, who meanwhile lived with his
mother. As soon as he was old enough
to take law into his own hands the bow
elected to live with the first husband.
and left his mother to do so; thereupon:
the third husband raided the first, car:
rying off ten head Of cattle, and, az If
to still further complicate the case, one
OF the cows calved on the road. It now
fell to my lot to decide with whom the
boy was to live, and what was to become
Of the cattle. " -
SO much evidence was produced that
I became utterly confused, especially
when the mother crawled in on hands
and knees to give evidence az to parent
age, In which, by the way, she was Hat
~ contradicted by her offspring. I
finally decided that the boy was to live
with the first husband, and that half
of the cows were to be returned to him,
the remaining half, with the calf, be-
Ing kept by No. 3. At this decision
No. i was delighted, but I could never
make out why. as I'VE cows, even with
out calf, are usually valued Tar above
any mere human body IN Africa.

"He's waiting for the whistle %

seal was watching for something.
The seals all know well the sound
OF the four-o'olock whistle, for that

The whistle is the signal Of the, elos-
ing hour of the aquarium, and the
seals are fed Immediately.
AS the people ret their faces toward
the door the seals dash and slash and
prance about in their pool. and jump
up half or three-quarters Of their

guitar as naturally as Yankees ,whis-

given to the instrument, chiefly as an
accompaniment to the voice. In towns

pert guitar players and walk in groups
to and from their work, enlivening the
Journey with music and song. The
