SUPERSTITION IN THE CONGO
Natives Invariably make Charms"
Before They Set Out on q
Hunting Expedition.

Nearly everything a Congo native
stition. Witch doctors and their
strange and somewhat horrible "medi-
cine" are in demand for all sorts Of
curious things. Their charms are
worked" for everything from curing
sickness to bringing bad fortune upon
an enemy. There may be demand
that curse be removed from q whole
town, or perhaps curse is to be laid
upon single enemy.
One of the least unpleasant and
most innocent of charms is that which
is worked" to invoke good luck in
hunting. 1t has certain picturesque
quality that Is engaging.
The Lower Congo Is not sports
mans paradise, says writer. Game
is not always to be easily found.
Therefore, when a hunter whose PROV
ess is admired and envied is about to
die curious thing happens. Just
before he expires few threads are
drawn from his loin cloth. These
threads are tied about the arms Of a
young man. This young man then has
a specific duty In life and certain very
definite obligations.
He superintends the burial Of the
mighty hunter. Then, whenever the
hunters Of his neighborhood are about
to set out the young man goes with
them to the mighty hunters grave.
He kneels with his face toward the
hunters and his back to the grave. The
hunters approach on hands and knees
until close, then they dance about the
young man and the grave to the rub-a-
dub of charmed" drum. Palm wine
is poured over the grave. while each
hunter drinks to the departed.
A bit Of the mud formed of the wine
and the earth on the grave is rubbed
on the forehead, the arms and the In
steps Of each hunter. This is sup
posed to give the hunters keenness,
sureness Of aim and swiftness In the
chase.
At last the charm Is completed. The
hunters sing song in praise OF the
mighty departed. Then off they go,
assured they will have success In the
field.

WORLD HAS CHANGED LITTLE
Marked Similarity in Certain News
paper AGve rtsing Today and That
of Many Years Ago.

Newspaper advertising Of 100 years
aso differed greatly in form from that
of today, but the differnce In sub
stance and Intent was rather small.
In the columns Of the New York Mer-
curry of that period one finds the FOL
lowing articles offered for sale and
extolled for their particular qualities:
"Godfrey's General Cordial" which
was the opiated soothing syrup used
In that day for peevish, teethinS
babies; the "Princely Beautifying Lo-
tina." by use of which the ladies
"made up" for the street; "TuringA
tons Original Balsam of Life which
must have been disappointing since all
the users are now dead; "Dr. Ryan's
Incompatible Worm Destroying SUI
gar plumbs." "Whitc Drops for the
Scurvy," "Red Pills." "Sweating Pow
der" Or. Radcliffe's Only True Speci-
fic Tincture for the Toothache," "Es-
sence of Balm Of Gilcad," "P"tter's
Water, for the Safe, Easy and Specific
Cure for the Stone and Gravel" key
ser's Pills" Golden Tpcture for Ilys-
terical Diseases" Genuine Harlaem
Oyl" by the bottle, "Levine's Well
Known Eyewater," "Bloom Of CircaS-
sia" for off-color complications Lady
Molyneux's Italian Paste" "Best Corn
Plasters and Lip Salve," Venetian
Paste for Enameling the Hands. Neck
and Face"
The bottle Of Stoughton Bitters by
which old topers used to give an addi-
tional tang to their nlps of whisky
stood behind every public bar up to
about so years ago. Long after its
use had been abandoned 1t persisted
until standing like StoughtOn bot
tie" became the common expression
for immobility.

HER DOMESTIC LIFE TICKLE
Female Tinamou Recognizes No O.
legation Of Loyalty to Either
Her Mate or Offspring.

Feminine freedom goes a long way
In the case of spiders (Where the
bride devours the bridegrOom), but 5a
spite of her hasty temper the fems ;
spider is a devoted mother.
The banner of "womens freedom"
10 carried much farther by the tin
amou. q South American bird.
She is a tickle wife and a cofirmed
child deserter. Two female tinamous
will fight for the claw Of blushing
male bird, who accepts the winner
without any voice In the matter.
As soon as she has laid nestful OF
eggs. off she Y'es and fights another
female for aIother husband.
Then she deserts her second hus-
band. leaving him nothing but tender
memories and more eggs. In time she
amasses kind Of disconnected harem
Of husbands.
The husbands have all the tender
qualities the wife lacks. They hatch
the eggs, guard the chicks, and moth
err them.

Cjunu to the Foothills.

Humanity In its settlements has
never cared for the high mountains
or their valleys. But the races Of
men have ever been well disposed to
snuggle up close to the foothills.
The modern cities have been built
beside great rivers on the fiat lands,
but in Biblical times cities were
founded upon rocks in the lower hills;
and where no hills existed, as in the
Mesopotamia valley, the Assyrlans
built a huge brick platform in imita
ton Of fiat hill, and reared their
city upon that. Athens was built upon
and~about the Acropolis. the Areo-
pagus, and the limestone heights be-
tween Cephissus and Ilissus. Rome
and ConstantinOple are both builded
on their seven hills, and the hills
around about Jerusalem are famous

GREAT POWER OF PRESIDENT
United States Chief Executive "Most
Potent Constitutional Function
ary In the World"

The legal functions Of the Presi-
dents office are so eminent that he
cannot escape the responsibilities OF
executive action, however much he
may be inclined to avoid them. His
constitutional powers alone make him
the pivot upon which all the adminis-
trative machinery operates.
He appoints the heads Of depart
ments and may direct their major pol
icies. His power of appointment to
all the greater offices Is far reaching.
He can recommend, shape and veto
legislation. His control over foreign
affairs is virtually complete. He is,
commander In chief Of the army and
the navy. In short. he is the most
potent constitutional functionary mi
the world.
All these constitutional powers have
been vastly augmented by practice
and custom. The President today car
do innumerable things that George
Washington or Thomas jefferson
would never have dared do even
they had thought of them.
The constitutional conception Of the
President is that of chief executive,
an administrator; custom has added
to this conception that OF leadership,
Of initiation.-Samuel p. Orth in the
Yale Review.

One Of Oceans Biggest Fishes.

The turbot is one of the largest Of
the fiat fishes, and one of the species
that is Of most value commercially.
It is seldom over two feet long, and
weighs about 18 pounds, although 90
pound turbot have been caught. It's
body is very fiat and wide, with
long fin on the top and bottom ridges.
Its upper surface is brown, and GOV.
cred with hard, round knobs.
The turbot Is a sea fish, and its
eggs-five or 100000 to a fsh-noat
On the ocean surface. but the full.
grown turbot prefers sea bank,
where 1t lies on It's lighter side. Both
the eyes are On the upper side Of the
body. The turbOt abounds off the
western coast Of Europe, where it is
caught for export.
