less a parsonage than George Fuller

The natives of that part Of South

banking.
These Kaffirs among whom this Curl
GUS system of banking obtains live
near Kaffraria, in the south Of the
Colony country. The natives come
down south from their country to trade
In the several villages and towns in
large numbers and then return to KAT

From those who trade of their own
number they select one who for the
occasion is to be their banker. He is
converted into bank of deposit by
putting all the money of those whose
banker he is into bag, and then they
sally forth to the stores to buy what
ever they want
When an article is purchased by any
of those who are In this banking ar
rangement, the price Of the article is
taken by the banker from this deposit
money bag, counted several times and
then paid to the seller of the article,
after which all the bank depositors
cry out to the banker in the presence
of the two witnesses selected:

odd Albanian Customs.

An Albanian woman expects to be
beaten If she misbehaves, this being
the prerogative of an Albanian hus-
band. He must be careful, however,
not to draw blood during the castiga-
ton, or the wife can complain to the
authorities. who will fine the husband
and give his property to his wife.
When an Albanian marries, he is
bound to provide his wife with food,
clothes and home in keeping with his
station and means and cannot require
her to earn money for herself or him
by her labor.
Divorce is quite common. Excessive
corpulence on the part of the husband
is considered quite sufficient excuse for
the wife to divorce him.

HOW WE LEARN.


Great truths are dearly bought. The common
truth,
Such as give and take from day to day,
Comes in the common walk of easy life,
Blown by the careless wind across our way.
Great truths ere greatly won, not found by chance
Nor waited on the breath of summer dream,
But grasped in the great struggle ef the soul,
Hard bufeting with adverse wind and stream.
But in the day of conflict, fear and grief,
When the strong hand of God, put forth in
might,
Flows up the subso1 of the stagnant heart
And brings the imprisoned truth seed to the
light,
Wrung from the troubled spirit in hard hours
OF weakness. solitude, perchance Of pain,
Truth springs like harvest from the well plowsd
field,
And the soul feels it has not wept in vain.
