Her Limited Vocabulary.

Now on a visit to his grandmother, who
resides in that part Of Washington called
by some Capitol Hill, Is a young gentleman
just three years Of age. whose local habi-
tation is way down in Maine." Coupled
with other disadvantages, If any exist, per-
tanning to a residence so near to the Cana
dian boundary line is the fact that the
young visitor never. until his present trip
to a southern section Of his country met a
colored person. The presence Of an old
black lady who is the presiding genius in
his grandmother's kitchen has filed him
with wonder and Just as soon as he became
acquainted with her he opened upon her q
battery of questions. to which she gener-
ously replied "Uh humph," in the af1rma-
tive. or Muck" in the negative as the
case might be- The boy didn't understand
this lingo any more than the subject Of his
queries could understand his prattle.
Recently he said to his mother. Mamma
can black people talk like us dor" His
mother assured him that the colored folk
were in no way remiss in that particular
and asked him what caused him to think
they could not.
WELL" said the youngster. .'the old wo-
man down in the kitchen can't talk. All
she says when I ask her anything Is "Ah
humph, dearie' and Muck, dearie,' and
don't know what she means, and talk to
her all the time, and she don't say nothing
but 'Ah humph and Muck"
The truth is the old lady would talk a
great deal, but 1t would require an inter-
prefer from within the home circle to
translate lingual efforts OF the young man
from Maine.

RUINS OF SOUTH AFRICA.
Relics Found Of the Finest Nature
Worshiping Shrine.

From the Geographical Journal
Richard N. Hall, who has given eight
years to the study of the ancient monu-
ments in Southern Rhodesia. says that
none Of the hundreds of ruins has been
more than partially explored. Many i'm
portant ruins have been seen only by cas-
ual travellers, and the work Of unearthing
only part of the great Zimbabwe area
would be more than the labor Of a life
time. Still, researches have made great
progress in the last few years. There are
in Rhodesia no less than three hundred dis
tinct ruins and groups Of ruins. Only a
few scores Of these are entitled to rank
as ancient" The larger part Of them
probably do not date back of the thirteenth,
fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
There is overwhelming evidence at the
great Zimbabwe Of the ancient civilization
and arts possessed by the builders Of the
earliest period. The Zimbabwe temple is
the finest and most intact example Of a
nature worshiping shrine known to the
world. Its construction points unmistak-
ably to some knowledge Of geometry and
astronomy on the part Of the builders. 1t
