slaves Of the Orient.

SIN Zanzibar and Pemba slaves are
very slow to take advantage Of the reg
ulations that give them the right to
claim their freedom" says a traveller.
They realize that SO long as they are
we'll used their position is superior to
that of the man whose freedom is his
sole asset. | have found the same at
titude in north Africa. From Morocco
TO Trlpoli one sees most of the slaves
we'll content and fourishing. The fam
inc, the locusts, the drought and the
tax collector have no terror for them.
Work keeps them healthy, they have
enough to eat and drink, and the future
has no meaning at all. There is pro-
motion, there are confidential missions
to governors and friends that elevate a
slave if only in the eyes of his fellows,
and there is always a chance Of manu-.
mission when the owner dies and
wishes to have some good deeds record
ed in the books Of Islam's recording
angels. The sorry truth of the matter
is that slaves under Mohammedan rule
are much better off than. they ever
were under the rule of white men In
America and elsewhere"

There was a large back region of
