Bandages and Red Tape.

During the South African war Rud-
yard Kipling discovered at Cape Town
a hospital without bandages and in
desperate need of them. This, too,
was in a city where bandages were
for sale in many shops
He told an acquaintance that he was
going to meet that want, and the gen
tleman at once offered to pay for all
the bandages that Mr.. Kipling would
buy and take to the hospital.
A cart was quickly loaded, and then
the author was informed that under
army rules the hospital authorities
could not receive supplies from a pri-
vate individual
We'll" said he, Il will dump the
packages on the pavement before the
door. and then tell them to come out
and clear up the litter. Perhaps they
can get them into the building in thai
way without tearing any red tape"
He drove off with the bandages, and
the supplies were somehow smuggleC
into the hospital-Youth's Compan
ion.

New Newfoundland 1ndustries.

Various new industries, which have
arisen in New York City of recent
years, have called for the addition of
new terms to the language. In 'elec-
tricity, the result has been bewilder-
ing, the new words being hardly adopt
ed as common English. Other trades
have been luckier with their vocabula-
ries. One of the finest Anglo-Saxon
words among recent new additions IS
the word housesmith, which describes
the workers on the new iron struc-
lures used in the building Of apart
ments and large Office establishments.
The trade which is in some ways the
antipodes of the housesmiths is that of
mechanics who pull down old city
buildings to make way for new 1t
has been hard to coin name for this
trade. The latest attempt here is
house wreckers, a sign now visible
with the firm name over many dis
mantled down town structures. The
word has an unpleasant suggestion, but
not so much so by its equivocal mean
ing as that used for the same trade in
London. People passing down the
Strand are repeatedly greeted with
the sign. Blank & Blank, Housebreak-
ers. New York Post.

A New York woman who secured in
italy nurse for her child found that
this native baby tender carried her
charge always on little pillow, slip
ping him in the case in such a way
that he was kept snug and coy, but
not restricted. The nurse was quite
amazed to learn that young infants
in America we're carried about sup
ported only by the hands, and mar
veled that any American child could
grow up with a straight back under
this treatment.

RUBBING ELBOWS WITH sARsARlsM


Interesting Episodes Of Life in British
East Africa.
There are some very bright passages
in the newly issued and most inter
esting report of Sir c. Eliot, her ma
jestys commissioner. We quote two:
1T must not, however, be supposed
that the Uganda railway has in any
way spoiled the picturesque wildness
Of the country and people around it.
1t Is not a humorous exaggeration to
say that the wayside landscapes re-
mind the traveller of the series of pic
lures in Punch, called Prehistoric
Peeps On the platforms naked saw
ages peer and grin with good humored
curiosity; their nudity is rendered
more conspicuous by the fact that they
wear short cloaks hanging down their
backs and carry elaborate ornaments,
often including old jampots, in the
Sits cut in their ears. Near the sta
tions the ostrich and the barndoor
fowl almost intermingle. The obsti-
nate rhinoceros, who assimilates new
ideas more slowly than other beasts,
sometimes disputes the passage of the
train in a narrow cutting, and derails
1t, though he perishes in the attempt.
A troop of more intelligent elephants
occasionally occupy station and in
their curiosity ravage the booking of
flee and take tickets which cannot be
accounted for afterward
The law administered is mainly that
of the Indian codes, local usage and
ideas being also taken into considera-
ton. 1t is somewhat difficult to make
natives understand English made law
and their interpretations of it are Of
ten both interesting and surprising
Recently four men of the Giriama
tribe prepetrated a murder near Ma
lindi. They confessed their crime, were
committed for trial and do their in
tense establishment were acquitted, ow.
ing to some technicality of the Indian
penal code. AS soon as they had re-
covered their bewilderment at being
informed they were not guilty of {
crime which they had admitted, they
began to theorize, and said, THE Eu.
ropeans' law requires a life for a life
We are four men, and killed only ont
man. Therefore, we cannot be pun
ished.' A holder philosopher deyel
oped the argument further, and said
There must always be one life takeI
for one life. If one man kills four 9th
er men, he cannot be punished. l an
apprehensively expecting the day whel
the philosopher will put his theor.
into practice.
Another instance of misinterpreta
ton is a story have heard from Ugan
da. On the occasion of the funeral o
bishop the king of the country wa
hidden to the service. He came hal
dead with fear; his presence could b
desired for only one reason-he wa
to be buried alive with the bishop il
order that the latter might present hir
as a convert in the celestial regions
The ceremony seemed so natural, s
appropriate, that his own official
could not even formulate a protest. =
