Zullul s Maremns HIit By Hard
 Ti iilaaes

Zululand is feeling hard times as well as the rest of the world, according to Olaf Linck, author and editor, of Copenhagen, Denmark, recent visitor at the Hotel Pennsylvania.
 The most noticeable way in which the Zulu eeonomizes- to meet the ex- igencies of his reduced income is in limiting the size of his harem," said MT. Linck.
 F While a man is still quite within his many rights in Zululand to have as many wives as he wishes, still pol lygamy is not as fashionable as it was. When practiced at all, it is not usually on as extensive scale as formerly.
 "A chief in Zululand fills his harem with wives he buys and pays for with oxen. The usual price for a wife is eight oxen. It doesn't make any diff ference what her age, her stature or her looks. Nowadays it is rather the cost of one wife than the relative cost of several wives that a chief has to think about. Only wealthy Zulu can afford many wives. A wife can be paid for on the instalment plan. A father will sell a daughter on easy terms-one OK down and one OK a month But woe to the husband who does not keep his instalments paid up promptly. Father-in-law has the powr CT to put him to work"
 MT. Linck pointed out that all this makes Zulu chief think twice before he commits himself to numerous wives. The Zulus are lazy race. he says. They live in huts, in small vil- lages or -kraals.'' Each wife has a separate hut and there are about ten huts to a kraal, each family composing kraal.
 "Zululand belongs to' England and 20 years ago England began to cul- tivate the land and plant sugar cane" said MT. Linck. "The natives arc used as labOrers. but they work only enough to get money to buy oxen. with which to buy wives.
 Mir Linck brought back with him large collection of musical instruments used by the chiefs in Zululand. includ- ing violins. guitars and war drums. He will lecture in this country on his travels under the auspices of the Dem mark to increase the goodwill be- tween the United States and his na- tive land.-New York Times.

The little boy growing up in a good
home believes everybody is honest and
kind, and only after he gets out in the
world is he bitterly disillusioned.
And even after his years in school
or in college, he finds himself expect
ing to be fairly dealt with in business.
and is disappointed when he finds that
this is not always to be
1t would, we believe, be Il mistake to
destroy the ideals of childhood. We
ought to have ideals ut some stage of
our existence, and childhood Is about
the only time when they are not likely
to be shattered.
But when you start out to fight the
world for your living, the soone you
realize that you must at times meet
with injustice and unfair dealing, the
less likely you will be to cry out that
you failed because every mans hand
was against you.
The world has still q long way to
go in its journey toward civilization.
II will have many setbacks before the
end of the journey Is reached.
Today, if you find other men deal
ing unjustly with you, even though you
deal Justly with them, do not be
shocked or surprised.
There are such men in the world
many of them. Treat them fairly. but
be prepared for q different kind OF
treatment from them, and don't whine
if you receive 1t.
Be alert to read character. Pick out
honest and straightforward men to
deal INDEPENDENTLY as employers.
Be on your guard against cheats,
and men who would exploit you. They
are always inferior In intelligence to
men who do business honestly, and
therefore less likely to be able TO be
Of service in advancing you.
Don't complain when you are unfair
~ dealt with. Grit your teeth and en-
dure II. Find tho right kind of people
who are still abundant, and make
them your friends, and your company
and your business associates.
IT will be q long hunt, but the re
suits will repay you the time you
spend on 1t.

DESIRE

A LITTLE girl sees q doll, and In

Then he proceeds boy-faShion to nick
things. which he has been forbidden
to cut and finally gashes his finger.
AS the girl and the boy grow older
their desires undergo a radical change.
With accumulated experience and
knowledge, they seek more substantial
possessions, good opinions, or a par
ticular place in the world where they
may become conspicuous and power
full.
And thus all through life their de-
sires grow, assume pew forms, urge
them forward or backward, mold their
character for good or evil and shape
their destiny.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
S

THROUGH every school child
u knows that Mississippi means
The Father of Waters" the
fact that the word was original
~ spelled "AIeche Sepe" is APP
parent only from q study Of
the Indian source. And even
this is only an approximation
of the way the phrase should
be written, for the Algonquins
had no written language which
could be transplanted literally
into English letters.
The first form in which we
|, find the name Of the river is
Niche Sepe," suggested by Ton
, ii and slightly closer to the
|, present spelling. Father Laval
still further modernized it into
Michispi, which another priest,
Father Labatt, softened into
Misisipi. Since then, the only
changes have been to overload
the word with cOnsonants. Mar
quette added the first IS" and
some other explorer the second,
, making it "Mississipi"-the form
i'm which it is used in France to
, this day, with only one "p." The
man who added the other has
, never been discovered, but he
must have been an American
! for, at the time of Louisiana
Purchase, the name was gen
, orally spelled in the colony
: with q single "p."

The Golden Rule is older than the
