Mr.. Benjamin had lived for years
with the Nettleback family near the

Benjamin came here from New York

Be Sure to Plant Some Vines.

Morning glories, cypress vines,
sweetpeas, gourds, nasturtiums, Japa-
nese hops, wild cucumber, hyacinth
bean are among our most desirable
annual climbers. Seeds, of them do
not cost much, and a package of one
or the other will yield shade, beauty
and grace.
The sides of a steep terrace or bank
may be transformed into a thing of
beauty by planting trailers along its
top. Rosa Wichuraiana, the memori-
al rose, and its hybrids, are desirable
for this purpose. 1t produces a pro-
fusion of long wreaths of small, thick
ly-set leaves, that look as though they
were vanished. In June it literally
cover itself with large, white single
roses.
The Virginia creeper, h~oneysuckle,
nasturtiums and moon vines are trail
ers rather than climbers. OF garden
plants the sweet potato and the dew
berry are genteel enough to be grown
as trailers. They give edlbles instead
of flowers.

But. one of the chief benefits is
educational. This gardening teaches
things that cannot be learned inside

a capital counter-irritant for the sup
posedly artificial atmosphere of the

EAST AFRICAN
RATTLEFIEL.D
a

governor of German East Africa, who
came from the coast as far as Lake
Kivu, about which Arab traders had
frequently brought vague reports.
This beautiful, island-dotted body OF
water, 5000 feet above sea level, was
the last considerable lake to be dis
covered in central Africa. Its outlet
is the Rufijl river, which flows south
into the famous Lake T~anganyika.
One of the most noted parties of
ploration which has visited Ruanda
was that headed by Adolphus Freder-
lex, duke of Mecklenburg, who
marched through the territory with an
impressive retinue of carriers In 19OI-o.
In his report he said of this region:
"Ruanda is eminently adapted for col
Onization by white men. The country
possesses a fabulous amount of wealth
in its herds, to the breeding of which
its pastoral people are particularly de-
voted. Also agriculture may be car
ried on in n r~emunerative way, for the
quality of the cattle itself Is as ex-
cellent as that of the milk they yield.
As to the quality of the soil, it simply
leaves nothing to be desired, so that
it is evident that there is splendid
opening here for the establishment Of
business on a vast scale"
immense Territory Involved.
When the American public reads
that the troops of the Belgian Congo
have defeated the colonial troops of
! German East Africa ut %Shangugu and
that the victors are proceeding south
ward from Lake Kivu in the direction
of Lake T%anganyika, it is hard to re-
alize that the two colonial possessions
involved have a combined area four
ffths as large as all of continental Eu-
rope, the Russian empire excepted.
Belgium's territory alone in this quar-
ter of the globe is so times as large
as the mother country, while the pop
ulation of the jungle wilds of the
Congo basin is variously estimated at
from 100000 to 30,000,000. The Ger
nan colony is nearly double the area
of the home country, while the pOpu-
lation Is estimated at S,000,000. In
both possessions, however, the number
of Europeans, chiefly officers of the
home government, does not exceed a
few thousands.

turn. 1t would be affectarion to say
that She had not often forgotten him
during the years OF his absence. But
with his return the memory Of the old
love came back to her and, though she
dared not show it, she fancied Charles
was not Indifferent to her.
She fancled so that night when he
opened his heart to her. He told her
what a wreck he had made of his life.
81 was u fool, Esther" he said unhap-
PLY. 81 squandered my youth. What

AS he said this he looked up, and
suddenly Esther knew that her eyes
had answered him. She blushed furi,

for her she was afraid. And then

1t was Laura, unconventional as al
ways. OF course she was invited In

began to- dream again. He dreamed
of a youth that was yet recoverable
He looked at Laura as if she embodied
all that Esther had been.

that Charles cared for her no longer
As for Charles himself, his mind was

YiOus interest in him.
Then, n evening, when he had en-

was surprised to hear her in the LITTLE

There is abundant water in Ruanda,
the small mountain streams never run
ming dry. When the grass becomes
parched on the hillsides, the natives
burn it off and Immediately there
springs up fresh, tender pasturage for
the cattle.
The perfunctory s~alutation among
friends is one of the interesting Gus.

they either place their arms lightly
about the waist or else grasp each
others elbows, holding them for q
while, then one declares 81 wish you
