all this multitude OF the heavenly host

Beautiful Forms, Little Clothing

The first thing which strikes visitor in
Rhodesia is the unexpected beauty Of the
black race-the beauty, that is of their
bodies, for their faces only escape ugliness
in our eyes in so far as they depart from
the negro type. Photography can seize the
ugliness, but the beauty, for some reason
not to obvious, It seldom captures. This
beauty no doubt partly consists in the
fine carriage, the free movements, of these
chosen and disciplined children Of severe
Mother Nature. II the sculptors of old had
seen negroes heaving huge masses Of iron
ore from a lighter to a ship, their ideal
strong man would have been different
and more beautiful. The black hercules

and nothing In his frame appears very

women and girls are comparatively seldom
met outside the kraals. Yet 1 remember on
