The soil in the tropical forest is uniformly
moist 1t steams The atmosphere is M
only hot and humid but there is almost ~
circulation of air Even the winds do not
seem to send their breath through the indie
scribabe wind-break of the forest itself.
The tropical forest is quiet cover 1t is
sngularly and depressingly still Only the
luxurant vegetation which blocks ones every
movement and which spreads irresstby and
flourishes amazingly by reason Of the warmth
and dampness, saves one from the impression
that nature is not only silent but sleeping.
WHAT can be said for the human nhabi-
w tants of the tropical forest? The real
jungle has almost no human denizens. But
along stream banks or in spots where the
forest thins out there may be human life.
On the whole, dwellers in the tropical forest
are very few, and they are always primitive
and very lowly. Such are the sparsely scat
tered Indians of the forests Of the Amazon
Where the forest is dominant men leave it
largely alone.
If there are adjacent islets, more open and
more salubrious, even though they be small,
man makes his home on these. Thus the
great island Of New Guinea, thousand miles

l have had some experience myself with the
oppressive and difficult conditions that the
prodigious sylvia of the tropics imposes on
both life and movement within its dark
shadow.
The trees of such a forest are many Of
them, of the finest hardwood They rise TO
lofty heights with bare trunks or boes, and
only a hundred feet above the ground do
they break out with branches and foliage
which so intertwine that they form a lofty,
dark umbrella that adds to the gloom. Beneath
these tall trees, and forming a distinct mass
of vegetation. is the veritable jungle. 1t en-

have traversed it in Malaysia, in Central
America and in Africa where it is a belt
$50 to 200 miles wide that circles the Gulf
of the Congo. In South America the enormous
forest of the Amazon divides that continent
far more completely than do the lofty ranges
of the Andes Mountains.
If no trails exist through this tropical
forest the stony bed of a rushing stream
pouring down a valley to the sea, is the only
traversable way, One splashes. slips and
