EQUATORIAL AFRICA.
Three Things a White Person Must
Have to Live There.

Three Things a White Person Must
Have to Live There.
Without mosquito bar a white per
son would be unable to live on the
equator, writes Ida Vera Simonton in
the Delineator.
No matter how hot and sitting the
highland no other place can be so
sitting as the equatorial African
night during the long rainy season in
the midst of the jungle-one must
sleep under a closely tucked in mos
quito bar, not the ventilated kind civ
ilization knows, but one of closely
woven stuff through which no air cir
culates.
When the mosquito bar was let
down it took in almost the entire room,
but it proved especially useful in sick
ness and cOnvalescence. 1t permitted
existence free from insect bites. As
malaria is the white mans most III
sidious foe and comes from the bite
of the mosquito, every precaution must
be taken against it. Three things are
absolutely necessary in Africa-a mos
quito bar, water filter and quinine.
The bed was made by a native car
penter. The frame was of wood. the
Stats of bamboo ribs fitted closely to-
gether with the pith side uppermost.
They didn't give bit and were an
excellent dancing floor for the dried
plantain leaves which made the mat
tress. The leaves were confined be-
meath ticking tackled to the four sides
of the bed. but they matted easily, and
every night it was continuous leaf
turning for me- The bamboo was slip
perry, and insomnia kept me and the
leaves on the move, SO that most of
the time l slept on hard surface. My
pillow was of dried sweet smelling
grass. Whoever says that hard beds
are beautiiers should sleep upon an
African bed

A Clash With Gagged Pythons.

Carl Hagenbeck thus described an
adventure with Gagged pythons: my
son Heinrich had no sooner opened the
door of the cage than the four reptiles,
as though by prearranged plan, flew at
him with wide open jaws. One of
them very nearly succeeded in coiling
itself round him. but he defended him.
self vigorously. and / and keeper
ran to his aid. but it was some min
utes before we succeeded in freeing
him. Then the largest of the four
fixed himself firmly with his tail on
rafter at the top of the cage and made
savage bites at us. When we had
thrown a sack over his head we had to
secure further assistance to unloosen
his tail. No sooner had we with great
effort got it loose than the monster
twisted itself around Heinrich's right
leg and began to Irvine itself higher
up his body. 1t was life and death
struggle that then ensued, but by ex-
erting all our might we at last sue
ceeded in tearing away The reptile and
forcing it into a sack"

Literary "Ghosts."

According to a writer in La Revue
Of Paris. the rank and file Of novelists
in France draw on an average 500 for
each book. and many of them are
thankful to get half that amount. On
the other hand. those at the top Of the
tree earn large incomes, and some Of
them undertake more commissions
than they can fulfill. Recourse is
then had to literary GHOSTS" of whom
there are plenty in Paris, willing to
furnish a passable imitation Of any
writer's work. Popular novelists do
not always take the trouble to read
the books published under their
names. Some years ago a ''ghost"
with a grievance against his employer
interpolated In the book ordered from
him two chapters Of Mime. Bovary,"
altering nothing but the names Of the
characters The woman who signed
the book in order to clear herself from
the charge Of plagiarism had to con-
fess that she had farmed it out.

A New Case of EnaIish hunnor.

Two sOutherners were entertaining
an Englishman when one of them told
the following story:
There was poor white in our cOun-
ty named Yarrow, whom every one
thought dishonest, but who had never
been caught stealing. At last he got
too bold. and through the testimony Of
Mr.. Brown he was sent to JAIL Soon
after Yarrow served his sentence Mr.
Brown was obliged to go to Baltimore
and have his eyes operated upon. A
much exaggerated account of the op-
Grafton reached the county and was
told to Yarrow.

worthy, that when the doctor took out
that old Browns eyes he'd dropped
'em on the floor and the cat had got

other southerner laughed heartily, but
the Englishman was Mortified. "Just
think" he said, .'of having cat in the
room when such serious operation

While we have many things
of which we may justly boast
we have witnessed many
things in practice that are
very disagreeable, not to say
exasperating. For instance
how one likes to go to the
postoffice to wait for the mail
to be distributed, or to mail a
letter or parcel, and have
some one just ahead after re-
ceiving his mail, stand at the
window and look over a dozen
or more letters and papers!
Or maybe they will mail
several letters and after pur-
chasing the stamps, instead
of stepping out of the way as
you should do, stand at the
window until they have plac-
ed the stamps in position and
sealed all the letter! We
think a reform along this line
