from the port OF Monebasa and %
miles northeast NJ Lake Victoria,

of his friends and relatives. such
as ba boons. Kalabash monkeys. red
tailed monkeys. blue monkeys and
hundreds of smaller kinds. Mon
keys are very common hereabouts.
some of the little white girls here
have them for pets. Often they be-
come rather tame. just like cats.
Oh. yes; must tell you about nv
school Well. Virgil. they are all
boys. no girls at all. and you can
imagine what a good school 1t
would be with all boys. so good In
fact, that have to keep large
stick at my desk continually, and
have more than one occasion each
afternoon to use II. besides pulling
their ears and any other way TO
make them behave. Law and order
is an unknown thing among these
little boys. The mothers are So
good in this part of Africa They
never spank their children no mat

Duty.

How many times we could make our

happy! BBut for the lack OF thought
fulness we so oftentimes forget our
duty until II is too late. and we make
our lives sorrow. In their disappoint
ments, trials and troubles we could Of
ten soothe and help just by doing our
duty. We forget the disappointnients
which come upon others, bu; are con-
tinually looking at these which come
upon ourselves, and thereby neglect
our duty. We do not think that every
one bears as great. or greater burdens
than we. II we could forever teep in
mind the times that we have felt de-
pressed, and how we wished for kinS,
sweet word or smile, and, too, how we
rejoiced to see our mothers and fath,

Homo courtesies.

In the close relations OF members ol
the same household and the constant
contact thru long association, there rs
apt TO be lack OF the friendly greet
ings and delicate attentions which are
given to visitors and strangers In the
household. Children are commonly no.
trained to see courtesies in their treat Z
ment OF parents and one another Hus-
band and wife do not preserve their
first gracious care OF each other. But
thoughtful and loving little services
sweeten and pour the oil OF joy over
daily experiences. When husband or
son is prompt and helpful in placing
her chair for her at the table, what
woman does not feel happier?
An act OF courtesy cultivates in its
performer more appreciation and att
tachment The spirit which prompts
little attention and the habit which
preserves them will Danish hard feel
ing. sharp words and alterations TINT
naturally and easily come in times Of
difference OF judgment or conflict OF
interest
There is no fault so hard 10 over
come as the nasty temper. We may
make any number OF good resolutions,
and then the first time we have any
away we go without an
instant's warning, and before we re-
alize what we are doing the unkind
words have been psoken, and no mat
ter how much regret we feel they
cannot be unsaid.
