Under the Equator

In a letter last week from DR..
STREET., who has charge of the
Sudan Interior Missions, he gives
an interesting account of condi-
tions at the equator in Central
Africa. There are splendid bust
ness opportunities there we be-
lieve for the progressive young
man, as the country will no doubt
become civilized in a short time
and needs able men to direct mat
tiers. He says: wAfter leaving
Wushishi for Paikd 1t took two
weeks steady travelling exclusive
of Sundays and rest days, before

found him. He was lying in a
hollow On a side hill, with both
feet frozen; he was half covered
with snow but alive. Most OF the
sheep were lost.
A farmer near Tewksbury, VT,
owned a large field Of corn. He
luilt fires around the field to keep
off the frost. Nearly every night
he and his men took turns in
keeping up the fires and watching
that the corn did not freeze. The
farmer was rewarded for his tire
less labors by having the only
crop OF corn in the region.
July came in with ice and snow
On the Fourth of July ice as thick
as window glass formed through
out New England. New York, and
in ONE parts OF the State OF Penn
sylvania. Indian corn, which in
some parts Of the East had strug-
gled through May and June, gave
up, froze and died.
To the surprise of everybody,
August proved the worst month
Of all. Almost every green thing
in this country and Europe were
blasted with frost. Snow fell at
Barnet, thirty miles from London,
England, on August 80. News
papers received from England
stated that 1916 would be remem-
bered by the existing generation
as the year in which there was no
summer. Very little corn ripened
in New England. There was great
privation, and thousands of per-
sons would have persisted in this
country had it not been for the
, abundance of fish and wild game

Wound From Chicken Fatal

Boston, June 24.-Colonel W. b.
Homer, u. S. A., retired, is dead at
Natick after but a few days illness
Colonel Homer was Ga years old.
He was inspecting the fowl on his
place last Thursday when he re-
ceived a spur prick on the back
Of the right hand from a game
cock. The wound became serious,
and OF Monday the arm was ampu
tated at the shoulder. Blood pois-
oning was too far along to be
checked. Colonel Homer was grad
uated from West Point in 1866. His
last service was at Fort Warren in
Boston harbor, where he was in
command up to his retirement at
the age of 81.

Aerial Passenger Service

Dusseldorf, Germany, June 3D.
A new epoch in transportation has
dawned. The first passenger air.
ship the world ever saw made its
initial trip today on schedule time.
This was not a trial trip nor an
experiment. Regular service on
schedule time is to follow.
1t was Count Zeppelin and his
giant craft, the Deutschland, that
made the trip. The vessel, carry
ing twenty passengers, sailed from
Frederichshafen this morning and
landed here nine hours later, hav
ing sailed three hundred miles. \
Count Zeppelin was at the helm
when the Deutschland left Fred
erichshafen at 8 o'clock this morn
ing and sailed away on the trip
that was to mark a new era in
navigation. The passengers were
some of the directors of the Ham
burg-American Steamship Com
pany joint owners of the dirigible
the guests. They occupied the
mahogony-walled and carpeted
cabin situated between the gon-
dolas, from the windows of which
they viewed the scenery as the
aerial car swept along. Count
Zeppelin steered for the greater
part of the distance.
The route was by way of SUIT
CART, Mannheim and Cologne to
Dusseldorf. 1t had been carefully
marked out in advance for the
guidance of the pilot and was fol-
lowed exactly. There was no air
stirring and the Deutschland made
its way unhampered through i q
flood of bright sunshine.
The hour and minute of the
probable passing of various points
had been bulletined ahead so thai
not only the people of the cities
on the line, who filled the streets
but the inhabitants of all inter.
mediate villages turned out ant
cheered enthusiastically as tn,
torpedo-like structure with itl
whistling screw drove over theil
heads at a height of between tive
hundred and three hundred feet.
The Deutschland swung gentl,
into it's landing here at noon ano
the multitude surrounding the lane
ing yards shouted a welcome. TIL,
city had been gayly decorated il
honor of the event.

In Memory of Clearance
Bennett

Clasp the dainty little fingers,
Der the still and peaceful breast
Close the dear ones eyelids gently
Little Clarence has gone to rest
On the downy coffin's pillow,
Lays the darlings little head,
Lays the precious little sleeper,
In his lonely dreamless bed.
Blessed child when early taken
From a world Of pain and care,
To the joy and love and beauty,
OF the beautiful bright country,
Where the sweet white dove has
flown.
Do not think he went through
darkness.
Wandering fearful and alone.
Jesus loves those little darlings,
And has laid the dear one safely.
On the bosom of his God.
He will meet his dear ones there,
And will smile on loving faces
He has never seen before.
Beautiful loving angels,
Watch and guard cur darling there
So He will not miss our presence
Nor our never ceasing care.
Let us mourn in hope and wal,
in patience
Swift the days are going by
And a little angel waits us.
In that home beyond the sky.

An old Irishwoman, who Kept a
fruit stall, had some melons given
to her, which she exposed for sale.
A smart Yankee, wishing to take a
rise out of the' old lady, took
one of the melons and said :F'These
T small apples you grow over
here. In America We have them
twice the size" The woman slow
ly removed the pipe she was
smoking from between her lips and
in a tone of pity exclaimed: "Be

tory was thickly settled withtribe
after tribe OF natives, mostly pa
gans, and as yet very little con-
taminated with Mohammedanism,
but equally untouched by Chris
tianity. aN '
The people have been given
over to the lowest forms OF cup
erstition and idolatry. One tribe,
the Kagoro, were head-hunters.
They were. the dread of travellers.
1t is said that they used to say
to the waylaid travellers, 1t is not
your goods we want, neither your
money; only your head please,
and you may go on with all else.
Then followed the cruel murder,
the head of their victim being
used as a kind Of fetish with
which to go through their devil
worship. Another tribe, the Gwani
wari, were such degraded canni-
balls that they scarcely have any
need OF burial, for old people are
killed and eaten, and children who
die are eaten also.
While the British rulers are dill
gently seeking to stamp out these
Ucruel customs, not one OF these
tribes has a single missionary to
teach the better way.
The journey was taken partly
to see whether a suitable site
could be found in the highlands
Of Nigeria where a rest home and
s%anitarium could be erected to
which missionaries could go to
recuperate instead of being COM
PEELED to undertake, the costly
journey home for furlough SO fire.

Absence Makes the Heart
Il Crow.Fonder---M Maybe

This is the reason when wives
ran away from their husbands.
Not to stay permanently, perhaps,
but for the summer outings, when
they leave the home desolate and
the man forlorn.
1t has always been a mystery to
me why a woman needed a longer
rest period than a man, The aver
age woman Of the higher middle
class-in other words, the woman
Of l%eisure-is not as hard worked
as her husband. In the old days,
when women had large families
and were overworked and worn
out, it was often wise for them to
seek some mountain OF seaside re-
sort, both for their wv sakes and
for the sake of the children. There
is no excuse for a woman who
leaves her husband alone for two
or three months to seek her own
selfish pleasure.
Put yourself in the mans place.
Suppose for one whole summer
your husband should leave you to
loneliness and the unshared bur-
dens? You will say, perhaps, that
there is no reason why two people
should be uncomfortable when one
might be enjoying cool breezes
and quiet hooks. or course that
is one point OF view. The other
is that of the man you leave be-
hind. II you do not share hislife
who will? What of his lonely
evenings? Most men r sociable
creatures. Lacking the one who
is nearest and dearest to them,
they content themselves with some
less congenial but more sympathe-
tic person. And this not because
of any lack of moral force, but
merely in a mans defiance of con-
ventions. He may see no harm in
things that will cause other peo-
pleto gossip and to question. You
can best protect him by being
with him. All reasons of justice
and OF sympathy should hold you
to his side.
1 wish that every woman who
has hitherto consulted only her
own comfort and ease in summer
would resolve that she would be
a vacation wife as well as a win
ter one. Home is not an unpleas
ant place in summer time IL rooms
are kept cool and clean, il iced
drinks and tempting viands are or
tap, and there are always the
weekend trips which husband anC
wife may take together to nearby
resorts. The money that the wife
would spend On an elaborate out
: fit and expensive board will pro.
, vide taxicabs and touring cars
1 will make possible roof garden
/, suppers and shore dinners, anc
there is no limit to the influence
that such jolly little jaunts togef
err will have on the future lives Of
the man and of the woman who
loves him.-Kansas City Star.

Now days, when a man falls in
love with another mans wife, that's
affinity but when a man falls in
love with your wife, that's differ

and make ugly remarks about an
