Worthless Tribe Of Hottentots,

Ii the Port Nonoth district. South
Africa, is the Richtersyeld, IAN I'M
mense area occupied by a handful OF
thriftless Hottentots, some sixty-fye
families. or 400 members all told" So
thriftless are they, one reads, that as
bften as not they eat up the seed
wheat supplied to them by the gov.
eminent in seasons of scarcity instead
OF sowing 1t. The natural springs at
their doors are not utilized, but neg
Iected, and so a more Industrious and
energetic race of men is shut out and
debarred from doing justice to the
land. But they are a socialistic COM
munity. When one kills a sheep or
goat all the others flock around to
help him eat it, and this applies to all
foodstufs; hence the natives idleRess.

fare no better than those who do not

Many Upeiousas People IN Poor Health
Without Knowing the Cause.
There are scores Of people who
