KING LEWANIKA'S STATE BOAT
Royal Graft Is 100 Feet Long, Carries
Monster Elephant Emblem, Court
Jester mad Musicians.

"While travelling in Rhodesia,"
writes contributor in the Wide World
Magazine, II managed to get a glimpse
of King Lewanika's state barge. The
chief of the Barotse is a fine fellow,
but / was much amused one afternoon
to see him going out for row attired
in top hat and a gaudy dressing
gown.
"Soon after the rains commence the
Barotse valley is flooded and natives
migrate to the sandy belt some miles
away for the season. The king al
ways makes the trip in the royal barge,
an enormous craft about 100 feet long.
In the center are two compartments,
both covered in, one being the living
yoom and the other the sleeping quar-
partments is erected monster ele-
plant, as a sort of kingly emblem,
while on the other stands the court
jester, who, on this occasion, amused
the populace by pretending to hunt
and shoot the elephant. A band of 20
musicians were accommodated on the
barge, in addition to whom there were
so or go paddlers and host of bailers,
for the barge was by no means water
tight. To the accompaniment of weird
music and barbaric song the huge craft
was propelled along on it's journey, the
return voyage taking place four or five
months later" 80

LLAMAs MUST BE HUNDRED
Will Not Endure Force or Threats
When Being Loaded They Are
Caressed by Drivers.

The South American llama will bear
neither beating nor ill-treatment. The
animals go in troops, an Indian walk
ing a long distance ahead. If the
llamas are tired they stop, and the
Indian stops also. If the delay be
too great the Indian, becoming I'M
easy toward sunset, after all due pre-
caution, resolves on supplicating the
beasts to resume their journey. He
stands about so or 60 PAGES off, in an
attitude of humility, waving his hand
coaxingly toward them, looks at them
with tenderness, and at the same
time, in the softest tones, reiterates,
&c, ic, ic' If the llamas are disposed.
to resume their course they follow the
Indian in good order and at regular
pace, but step fast, for their legs are
long; but, when they are in i'll humor,
they do not even turn toward the
speaker, but remain motionless, hud-
died together, standing or lying down.
The straight neck and the gentle ma
jesty of bearing the long down of their
always clean and glossy skin, their
supple and timid motion, all give them
an air at once sensitive and noble.
If it happens-which is very seldom
the case-that an Indian wishes to OBJ
tain, either by force or even by threats,
what the llama will not willingly per-
form, the instant the animal finds it.
self affronted by words or gesture it
raises it's head with dignity and with
out making any attempt to escape i'll
treatment by flight, lies down.
The respect shown these animals by
Peruvian Indians amounts almost to
superstitious reverence. When the
Indians load them two approach and
caress the animal hiding its head that
it may not see the load on it's back. 1t
is the same in unloading.

Time to Einht Mice.

The time to fight mice is when your
house is still rid of them. First make
a hard and fast rule that not a crumb
Of food is left exposed in kitchen.
pantry or cupboard. See also that in
the bedrooms of your home no waters
or other tasty bits are left where a
mouse might get them and thus find
encouragement to take up his perma-
nent abode there.
The next thing to do is to cut off the
means Of entrance to your home, and
this is done by seeing that there are
no loose passageways into the cellar
or open cavities in the wall or loose
woodwork. AS a final resource you
will perhaps have to choose between
a mouse trap and a cat. 1t all de-
ponds on your affinity for the feline
pet which you will do. But remember
that whereas permitting mice to lodge
in your house was formerly only an
act of slothful neglect, it is now one
of the crimes of wastefulness. of
which no patriotic woman should be
guilty.-Exchange

Very Poor speIIer.

Miss Bizness was a very capable
girl in the office, but she couldn't spell.
Her employer found her so useful in
every other way that he bought her
"a dictionary and advised her to use
it regularly.
The next morning when he came
down to his office he noticed that to
protect the new book from the con-
slant wear she was expected to give
it she had carefully covered the back
with cloth, and across the cover she
had written:
"Dictionery.'

Dressed Just Like Clothes Pins.

ready. They prepared fine supper
and decorated little tables which were
just outside the cave. Mr.. Giant helped
them and lent them many things such
as his fine sandwich cutter, which was
made out of sharp stone and which
cut the bread in no time at all!
They decorated the cave with au-
tumn leaves and branches of pine
trees. Soon it was time for the guests
to come.
They all appeared in fancy dress cos.
tunes. eve had no idea you would
all dress up," said Peter Gnome, smil-
ing as he embraced Billie Brownie first
of all.
"Ah, Peter" said Billie Brownie,
laughing, 1--WE knew by your smile that
you had something up your sleeve
that Is we knew you had an idea
SO we thought the least we could do
was to dress in costumes"
And when all the guests saw every
Gnome dressed just alike and looking
like a great, enormous set OF clothes
pins, how they did laugh!
Just as soon as every guest arrived,
what did Peter Gnome do, helped by
Mr.. Giant who now appeared at the
door of his cave, but get out a great
stout rope. 1t was strong enough to
make a swing, and in few seconds
Mr.. Giant had fastened his end to an
old pine tree and Peter Gnome had
tied his to another pine tree.
Ready, set, go!' said Peter, and all
the Gnomes dressed as c1othesplns
hoped on the long rope and said:
"We're all little clothespins out on
the line!'' And what a jolly party it
was!

Brownie.
'When will we have it?" asked Wit

''Tll give the party" said Peter
Gnome, land it will be down in the old

Giant makes his home.
''Be sure to tell the COLLINS and
Fairies and Elves and Bogeys about

too. And tell the Olaf family as well,
Peter Gnome called after the Brownies.
for they had commenced hurrylng
away in their excitement to tell every
one else.
Now Peter Gnome was much excited.
eve will give them great surprise
he said.
"What are you planning to do?' the
others asked.
Listen, and will tell you" said Pc
ter Gnome. They all gathered around,
each gnome taking hold of the back
of his right ear and holding it forward
little.
eve are to look like clothespins,"
he said. The gnomes were tribe
disappointed but they tried not to show
it.
s'Maybe you don't think that clothes
pins are SO very attractive" said Pc
ter Gnome, "but we will get hand
some suits.
"You see we will have to get great
long trousers SO we will look like
clothespins in the first place-and
we will have to fasten them almost
around our necks-not quite, though.
For we must have little red vests and
blue buttons in the front. Our trou-
sers are to be bright red and we shall
wear flat caps Of bright orange"
"How wonderful" shouted the
gnomes, ''but we won't look very much
like clothespins.'
eve will look like clothespins
dressed up" said Peter Gnome, for |
have seen clothespins painted in just
that way, and I am surprised more
children who can paint don't ask their
mothers for two or three clothespins
and give them handsome suits.
"Of course when I saw them |
thought at once that we could go to
the next fancy dress party as clothes
pins. I'm sure no one else has thought
of such costumes"
The Gnomes were delighted, and
| they hurried about making their cos
tunes for of course when they were
ready they had to think about getting
supper.
Peter Gnome was through with his
costume first and the others were soon

stuffs from rats at over two hundred mill
lion dollars annually, and in the present
scarcity of food, this loss must be pre-

the Rat is by the use of Stearns' Paste,

bought by the government. Every house
keeper troubled with rats, mice, reaches

NO DECISION GIVEN
ON ADAMSON LAW
UNTIL NEXT MONTH

The United States supreme court
recessed Monday until March 5,
without handing down a decision
in the Adamson eight-hour law test
case. Just what effect this will
have upon the situation is not clear
A bill was introduced in the
house Monday which empowers the
president to take over railroads in
time of war. At the same time a
new administration railway labor
bill was re-introduced in the house
without the compulsory investiga-
tion or arbitration feature. 1t is
evident from this that President
Wilson has lost hope of passing a
"can't strike" federal law.
