of much sickness as they smoked the
tobacco leaves without much prepara-
ton. Another illness that prevailed
was a sort of scab where the meat
rots away. The rupture, which was
very painful, frequently caused opera
tions, and after the ordeal and the
patient was resting easily he was in
deed thankful DR.. Schwietzer's reply
to the patients thankfullness was that
he was sent there by Jesus. After a
while larger hospital was built with
the negroes help.
Buys Wife.
The Rev. Lund told how formerly
the negroes enjoyed good community
and family life, but when they were
taught to drink whiskey by Europeans
conditions became bad and now it is
claimed by Europeans that if the ma
tives do not get whiskey they will not

ger book that the native negroes have
bad habit of stealing. Over there
a man buys his wife for about 40C
franc. She can also be bought on
time, but it is best to have the bill
paid up soon or the wife will con-
stantly remind her husband of the
fact that she is not entirely paid for

in history the laughing ceased.
Young Schwietzer was especially in
terested in philosophy, theoligy, and
music and later became minister.
A monument of negro near his home
town had sad face and as a minister
Schwietzer often studied his face and
became very much interested in the
needs of the negroes. At the age OF
SO when he had become a very able
minister and had already written sew
eral books, he gave up his ministry
and took up the study OF medicine
and after a few years took the ex-
animation as physician and surgeon.
His desire was to serve. He wrote
some books and travelled in many
parts of Europe, the proceeds being
used for his work that he was going
to take up in Africa. He was given
help by both French and German or
ganizations. In 1914 he and his wife
left the mother country for the dark
est Africa with 20 boxes of medical
goods. The departure from the old
home town where he had been pastor
some years and where the church
bells rang and friends waved good
bye, was a very sad one.
To Africa.
The journey to Africa was made
on a flat boat with side wheeler
and they encountered a fierce three
day storm near Gibraltar. On the sea
coast they were met by a military
doctor with whom DIR. Schwietzer be-
came very friendly. At the coast city
they had to leave the larger boat ant
get onto another steamer to go up the
river. The boat used wood instead
of coal for fuel. Lamborene was the
destination and the home that the
Schwietzers were to occupy was
little two room affair in which the!
were greeted by many creeping in
sects. After about three hours o
cleaning out they enjoyed their frs
nights rest
