By a curious coincidence, they happen
to be also the ug1iest. They are the
Pahouins, a savage tribe of the western
coast of Africa.
Like all the Pahouins hunt,
fish and wage war on their ~neighbors.
AS the Pahouin's clothing is of so
light a character as not to incommode
him, he bestows a good share of his
thought upon the adornment Of his
body, which he tattoos in elaborate de-
signs done in red or blue.
Or a more fancifu1 effect is obtained
by ~tattooing in relief by injecting I'M
derneGth the in the juice of a plant
which produces a permanent swelling.
Sometimes the face and body are also
tinted with a dye, red being the color
most in demand
The same methods are used in adorn-
ing the face, especial attention being
given to the nose. Many of the Pahou-
ms, after tattooing or painting theil
noses, pierce them with long, slender
bones; others, after piercing the nose
attach to it a string of colored pearls.
Both men and women concentrate
their efforts on their hair. Their in,

The extreme of simplicity in the Pa
houin women's methods of making

head till it is smooth and round as
ball, and then to color it with a dye.

Spafn's Cork Trade.


Cork cutting is one of the few indus
tries of Spain that remain apparently
unaffected by the revolutionists, Carlist
plots and her feeble financial condition.
The largest output is from the prov
tnce of Corona, along the upper bor-
iers of the Pyrenees Mountains. The
factories in this district employ 10000
people. A concern in Cadiz, which
handles cork from the tree to the con-
sumner, employs over two thousand peo-
pie. The value of the Spanish cork
.rade is over SO, 900, 900 a year. This
Tade steadily increases, and is a
measure of the wine and liquor con-
suTned by civilized man. AS one dollar
will buy nearly five hundred corks, ii
s easy to realize that more than five
billion bottles are used each year
This gives US an average Of about five
bottles per man.

MR. BRYAN'S ACCEPTANCE.

In his letter accepting the
Democratic nomination for the
presidency Mr.. Bryan states
very clearly and forcibly the is,
sues which are before the coun-
try in the prasenJ campaign. His
letter is not SO lengthy as that Of
President Mckinley. but covers
the issues quite as fully and is
decidedly more pointed.
Mr.. Bryan puts the two ques-
tions which are most important
and which are attracting most
public attention at the beginning
and enl of his letter. he begins
with the trusts and his statement
of their evil effects r so power
fully put that they cannot fail to
impress the public mind and help
20 arouse the public conscience.
He charged the Republican par
ty with fostering and favoring
trusts by it's tariff legislation,
which efectually shuts out for
eign competition. the best possis
BILE preventive Of trusts.
In his speech indianapolis to
the notification committee Mr..
Bryan practically ignored the
silver question and in his letter
of Acceptance he makes it an in
cident rather than a main issue
of the campaign.
That part Of the letter which
treats of Imperialism is brief but
very emphatic.
Mr.. Bryan, in his Indianapolis
speech and all his subsequent ad-
dresses, has made this question
his main topic and there is abun-
dant evidence that he has made
many converts to the Democratic
faith by his strong presentation
of the dangerous line which the
Mckinley administration has
taken in it's departure from the
old landmarks.
Mr.. Bryan's letter is climatic
and concludes with these impress,
sive words:
whether we shall adhere tt
or abandon those ideas of govern
ment which have distinguished
this nation from other nation
and given to it's history it's pc
culiar charm and value, is a ques
ton the settlement Of which can
not be delayed. Nc other ques

TKIUMPHAL RECEPTION,
WOrkmen Wild Oyer MIR. Bryan
In Kansas City.

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 10
Thousands of workingmen gave
to Mr.. Bryan here last evening
the heartiest reception he has
met in this campaign.
He arrived at Union Station. |
Kansas City, at 500 p. M, and
was taken to Armourdale, a su-
burb across the Kaw river, where
work, and for the most part live,
the families of the employees in
the big packing houses and many
large factories. The drive to the
park was a triumphant one for
the candidate. The street was
packed from building line to
building line with workingmen
and their families. They chung
to Mr.. Bryan's carriage and tried
to climb into it. Many even
fought for a chance to touch his
Goat and clamored Cor attention.
For three miles they howled and
hurrahed and made progress diff
fcult.
At the park 10000 persons had
gathered. With difficulty the pos
lice forced a passage throughthe
crowd. While Mr.. Bryan was
speaking on the labor question
the crowd was intensely atten-
tive. Every oratorical period was
cheered tremendously. The is
sues of trusts, Imperialism and
militarism were reviewed in their
relation to the workingmen.
/ When Mr.. bryan asked what
chance the workingman had to
raise and educate his children
under present conditions the
crowd let loose a tremendous
chorus of s'None at all"
Until it became SO dark that a
man in the audience could not
distinguish his next neighbor
Mr.. Bryan spoke. After the ad-
dress Mr.. Bryan went to the
. Baltimore Hotel, where he dined
with a party Of Democrats.
7 AT 9 D.. 10. the second Kansas
U City meeting began. Owing to an
! exposition being arranged for in

Mr.. Bryan received his second
