Tonight we can , bave some good bread." . When soire dry twigs had been gath ered he proceeded to smooth off a bit of the cleanest sand and built upon It a not fire. 'When the sand was thor oughly hot be raked off most of the coals and smoothed the sand very neat ly. Meanwhile one of the other men had made two large sheets of dough about three-quarters of an inch thick and eighteen lnchea lo diameter. Be tweeu these be placed a layer of lamps of sheep's tall fat making a huge round sandwich., This was now spread on the bot sand, coals mixed with Band were placed Completely over it and It was left to bake. Now and then an edge was uncovered, and a Turcoman smelled It appreciatively and rapped on It to see If It was yet cooked. When the top was thoroughly baked the bread Cua turned over and covered np again. It tasted even better than the Afghan bread after it was cooled a Httle and the sand and ashes bad been whisked off with a girdle.

In the "Autobiography of Sir Henry M. . Stanley" ijbe author says of the colored natives of central Africa f "Good as the majority of Zaazibaris were, some of them were Indescriba bly and for me most unfortunately dense. One man who from his personal appearauce might bave been Judged to be among the must intelligent was after thirty months' experience with his musket unable to understand bow it was to be loaded. He never cojuld remember whether be ought to drop the powder or the bullet into the mus ket first. Another time be was sent with a man to transport a company of men over a river to camp. After wait ing an hour 1 strode to the bank of tbelriver and found them paddling in opposite directions, each blaming the other for bis stupidity and. being in a passion of excitement, unable to bear the advice of men across the river, who were bawling out to them how to manage their canoe. "Another man was so ludicrously stupid that he generally was saved - from punishment because his mistakes were so absurd. We were one day floating down the Kongo, and. it being near camping time, 1 bade blm, as he happened to be bowman, ou the occa sion. to stand by and seize the grass on the bank to arrest the boat when 1 should call out in a little while we came to a fit place, and I cried. 'Hold hard. KIrango." 'PJease God, master,' he replied and forthwith sprang on the shore and seized the grass with both hands, while we. of course, were rapidly swept down river, leaving him alone and solitary on tbe bank. Pbe boat's crew roared at the ridiculous eight, but nevertheless his stupidity cost the tired men a hard pull to as cend again, for not every place was available for a camp. "He It was also who on an occasion when we required the branch of a spe-. cies of arbutus which overhung the river to be cut sway to allow the ca noes to be brought nearer to tbe bank for safety actually went astride of the branch and chopped away-until he fell into tbe water with the branch and lost our ax. He had seated himself on tbe outer end of tbe branch." White Maple, birds eye maple and quartered oalc suits at The Gastonla Furniture Company. Mr..Arthur G.
