The countless thousands of interesting things which we saw and thenumerous incidents which we encountered would fill a good-sized book, if such were written. Historial beautiful, quaint, extravagant, inviting impressing and fascinating might be included. in the list of adjectives which could describe the various cities and countries. It was not avery difficult thing to travel throughout these countries, because many persons are found everywhere who know something . about our language. Many times people would talk to us for a great in such conversation we learned many things which would have otherwise never been added to our knowledge. We found the people courteous, friendly, and quite thoughtful most of the time. We come into contact with train, on bus, and tramway conductors who were extremely courteous and were willing to stand the strain of explaining: directions by the sign language. The American is impressed by such reception and wishes that our type of organization were not ‘so fast and forgetful of good manwe call ners, especially on public conveyances in the large cities. . I kept a complete record of our trips and the things which we saw. Soon, I will give several talks before the Student Body about them.

The witch doctors were arguing about their powers before a great crowd of natives, and the elder of the two stated with considerable emphasis that the other was “only a boy” and could not possibly have the powers which he -himself claimed to have. He added that if he (the elder) willed that the other should die, he would die. The younger man took up the’Challenge and the older one pointed at him with a stick and said solemnly, “You will die,” The young man then rose to his feet,, staggered and fell against. some barbed wire and immediately expired. The other witch doctor was placed under arrest, but was released after the post mortem examination which showed death to be due to a stricture. Ivy Unpopular Ivy has so tong been used as a symbol of close and undying affection that it is uncomfortable to find a controversy going on as to how to kill and exterminate this “pestiferous plant.” It is a beautiful thing, ivy; its leaves are exquisitely shaped; its color is satisfying. Yet we are told now to look upon it as an enemy both to buildings and trees, All the same, I know walls covered thick with ivy where I used to locate birds’ nests, which I shall always regard with atfection, And I have known trees sinothered by ivy which were far less pleasant to look on than the creeper which deprived them of life.——Montreal Family Herald.
