person becomes sacred. His food IS
restricted to milk and beef, which is
obtained from special and sacred
herd of cows which are always kept
apart from the other herds.
The king OF Unyoro never permits
himself to grow old or his faculties
to become impaired. When he thinks
himself likely to become seriously
i'll, he calls together a council of
state, arranges the affairs Of the
kingdom with the principal chiefs
without giving them any reason for
thinking that he is about to die
and dismisses them to carry out his
instructions.
This important business safely ac-
coinplished, the king returns to his
royal palace and summons his chief
queen-they have many queens in
their harem-and orders her to
bring him a cup OF powerful native
poison with the same grand manner
as he might use in asking for "a
bottle of milk. Then he drinks the
contents of the poison cup at a gulp,
and in few moments he Is dead.
When the reigning monarch Is
comfortably dead by his own act,
the chief queen calls to the palace
one or two OF the cabinet ministers.
1t is their duty to prepare the royal
corpse for burial. For as long a
period of time as possible the death
of the king is kept secret. Each day
the royal milk and royal beef are
brought to the palace IS custom or
dams, and official callers are in
