Captain Tuckey was commission
Cd by the British government to ex-
plore the Kongo region in west A.
rica early in the nineteenth century.
Ono Of the discoveries made by the
captain proves that a select few OF
the Kongo women had reached q
stage beyond the utmost dreams Of
present day woman suiiragists. The
sovereignty Of one tribe he found
to Be hereditary In the female line.
Daughters Of the mighty chief were
allowed to choose their own hus-
bands, over whom they became
"most absolute mistresses and can
even extend their prerogatiye to the
selling Of q refractory spouse to
slavery" Little wonder, reflected
the captain, that the honor Of q
royal alliance sis a matter Of but
little emulation among the gallants
Of the Kongoese court" As the
chief had as many as fifty wives the
demand for eligible parts for royal
princesses was fairly steady.

The most peculiar clock In the
world is that in tower in the
courtyard Of the palace Of Yer
sailles. IL has but a single hand
and is known as "LHorloge dc Ia
Mort du Roi" to the French people
and to all other Europeans by words
which signify "clock Of the dead
kings" II has no works, but con-
sists merely Of a face and a single
hand, the face being in imitation Of
the sun. Upon the death Of a king
in any portion Of Europe the hand
is set at the moment OF his demise
and remains in that position unit!
another king passes away. This
curious custom Is said to have orig
mated in the time Of Louis XIII.
The clock Of the dead kings is about
the only relic Of royalty in Yer
sailles that escaped the furious
mobs of the time Of the French rev.
olution.

If oil or grease is on your best

ply spirits Of turpentine to the spot,

second application.
Or lay blotting paper on the
grease spot, then press the blotting
paper with a warm iron, repeating
the process several times so as to
absorb as much Of the grease as pos

oil of turpentine and heat it al
most to the boiling point. Have the
greasy leaf warm, and then with a
clean brush wet in the warm turpep-
