One day Scottish boy and an
English boy who were fighting were
separated by their respective mothers
with difficulty, the Scottish boy,
though the smaller. being far the
most pugnacious.
What CARED ye FIGHT big lad

as she wiped the blood from his

where the famous missionary carved

The river makes a sudden leap into
a narrow fissure in the rock over a
mile in length. evidently of volcanic
origin. The thunderous roar of the
| falling water can be heard for miles.
Boiling and churning in the "De1il's
Pot" as the fissure is known, il
bursts with fury through a narrow
opening between the rocks to go
plunging along a gorge five hundred
feet and upward of orty miles long.
The main fall is over a mile in
width. "No words" writes one who
has recently visited this mighty cat
aract. "can convey even an idea of
what the meeting of the waters looks
like, as the masses rush with ter
rifle force out of the canon into the
Iambezi gorge-boiling heaving,

up to an immense height in white
leaping in pyramids and throwing
spiral columns, in shaking javelins,
in spinning globes, the spray that
forms the central dome of the mys-
FERROUS smoke that David Living
stone saw only a generation ago."
Despite the terrific force of the
water as it plunges over the mile
wide precipice, the sensation with
which it strikes upon the beholder
is not one altogether of overwhelm-
ing awe, of terror. Instead, it's sub

1t will no doubt be a surprise to
the reader to learn that there is now
smart modern town, really a city
of pretensions, built up about the
falls. There are big tourists hotels,
many pretentious private residences.
All this in the very heart of the Az
rican jungle! This smart city, like
the falls, is named for England's
former queen, Victoria; and it is
reached by trains de luxe" replete

Colored socks are chiefly associat-

day are included in an exhibition of
relics retrieved from the ruins of
Antinoe, which are on view i'm London

are childrens socks, and notwith-
standing that they have been buried
all these centuries, the colors are
extremely fresh. They run in hori-
