JOE. OF TIE LL-NGLE-


One day, about n week after our
sport with the elephant, two Of the
gorillas left home ana were gone for
half a day. OF course, l could not
tell where they went. or what for but
when they returned there was Il great
jabberlng and chattering, and ! UNI
derstood that something was going to
happen. That evening, instead of
climbing to our nests in the trees,
we set out through the forest to the
west. l was going to take one Of the
spears along, but a gorilla took it
from my hand and gave me Il club
instead. They seemed to understand
that l could not see at night rs we'll
as they could and one walked on
either side of me and gave me his
hand
. We walked fast for two hours. We
met many hyenas proving about, and
once a lion roared close TO us, but we
had no fear of the wild beasts. BY
and by we left the forest and jungle
behind us, and stood in the open
could make out huts and paths, and
presently l understood that we were
close to a native village The people
were all asleep in their huts and they
had 10 dogs to warn them of our conf
ing. What the gorillas meant to do
could not guess, but after making
sure that no one was awake, we went
ahead until we reached field Of
maize.
The gorillas didn't want to kill any
one, but they owed the people "a
spite" and took their way of paying
it off. When there was nothing more
to be picked up or destroyed, the big
gorilla called us all together for a talk
1 can not tell you what he said, but
all the others understood it plain
enough.
When we were ready the big gorilla
cried, 'Hu! HUI and re dashed into
the huts and seized a sleeping man or
woman. The three of us got hold
of a big, strong man, and though he
was greatly surprised at thus being
attacked, he kicked and struck and
bit and made a good fight of it. We
got him out of the hut, however, and
one of the gorillas picked him up and
ran to the bank of the river and flung
him in with great splash -Four
other natives were treated the same
way. 27e4sI
The gorillas were thrown into 4 great
rage and wanted revenge, but they did
not know how to get it until l showed
them the way. l cut several vines
and made slip-nooses, as 1 had done to
catch the lion, and then l had the
gorillas so back to The water and pre-
tend to be drinking. 1t was not long
before another crocodile rushed out,
but they were on the watch and daSt-
cd away, and while he rested Oh the
bank, wonderin. where his dinner had
gone to, l threw three Of the slip
nooses over his head Then we all got
hold and drew him far from the wafer.
and when we had beaten him with
clubs we made him fast TO a tree and
left him TO die.-St Nicholas.

HARVEsTING BUCKWHEAT.

Buckwheat not ripening its seed all

mature grain, that which is half
grown, and green kernels and flow

crop to harvest in order to. get the
best returns. Were it not that the
frost will stop the growth and finally
kill the plant, it might go on bloom
ing, If the soil contained sufficient
moisture, until the very weak pedicels
became overturned with berries and
self-destructive by rupturipg and
breaking down. The cutting, accord
ingly, should be deferred as long as
there is no indication OF this occurring
and the first light frost has not yet
killed the bloom and stopped Iurther
formation Of grain; but it should be
cut, then, and always, if possible.
before a severe frost, for that, pros
trating the stalks, would result in a
tangled mass to gather and much seed
scattered out in the harvesting.
