At the present day camels are used
for all sorts of domestic purposes in
Africa. They may even be seen draw
ing plows in the interior OF the regency
OF Tunis You may remark a woman
and a camel harnessed to the same
plow, and you hesitate to decide
which is the greater outrage They
are also used for drawing water from
the strange. cumbersome, old fashioned
wells OF north Africa. Their chief use,
however, is for caravans. You may be-
hold them bringing In huge cases OF
dates from the oases, or you may see
them with great tentlike structures OF
red silk upon their backs. These tents
are for the conveyance of Arab women
OF the upper classes. who seek TO main
tam the privacy OF the harem when
on a journey. Two women and some
children are often accommodated on
one camel. They have cushions on
which they can lie down and even
sleep. It is stuffy, and 1t is dark, but
they deem themselves well OF In escap'
ing from the searching rays OF the

Probably one Of the most remarkable

simulated dust and debris Of years.
This became sort Of bed. from which
sprang the roots and in time produced
the upper tree. Contrary to all the
laws of horticulture. the life OF the tree
has not been injured in the least by its
parasite companion on top
The top tree is a lime, and the peas
