Industrious, raise valuable crops, and
export their products in large quanti-
ties, Mandioca is their principal crop,
and they sell many thousands OF
bushels of 1t annually to traders who
transport ii down the river. Also they
gather rubber and tonka beans, receiv-
ing for these and other merchandise
such articles as cheap cottons. iron
hatchets and cutlery. The opposite
extreme Is represented by tribes which
find their homes in partly-submerged
forests, living in the tree like orang-
outangs, and travelling about in them
for considerable journeys. These, in
deed are the most distinctly arboreal
people on the earth. The Parauates
are intractable robbers. and pass their
lives in roaming, having no fixed
obodes and raising no plant, When
hey come to a stream. they improvlse
rude canoes of bark. throwing them
away as soon rs they reach the other
side. At night they sling their ham
mocks from the most convenient trees.
Animal Life OF Tho Forest
The tropical forest Is crowded with
animal life. Among cats the "yow-
