Wenders in if Developing Its Immense Holdings i Railroads Run All Over the Nérth- ern Territory, Nearly everything in Africa fo-day is dominated by three great 0 os England, France and Germany. Great Britain and France together ocomtrol about two-thirds of the continent, the Pritish third being by far the most important. Germany owns only a small part of the remaining third, but its steamship and trading interests entitle it to a voice in all African councils, writes Edgar Allen Forbes' in the Review of Reviews. . France excels as a colonial 'power. No other mation has so many fine har- bors in Africa. You expect these along the Mediterranean, of couse, but no¥ glong the western coast, which is unded by a tremendous surf from Rengier to the Oape. The writer canghtl his first glimpse of Casablanca just after the French army of occupation had landed---and there was the 0-, ning of a huge breakwater that would, cost millions. He went into the har- tor of Daker (French 'West Africa) on a heavy cargo boai--and there were docks that would be a credit to New, York City. The big'boat ran along. side the bier under its own steam' and unlo its freight on a capa cious wharf that was provided with a branch railroad to-connect with thei main line. This is the French way-- to provide 'excellent landing facilities end safe anchorages. They do not surpass the British in providing for steamship service between colony and homeland, but the Briton builds not harbors after this fashion. { Take railroads. e writer found trains to carry him alljover - French North Africa, with twotbranch lines that actually run down'into the Ba- bara Desert--and a telégraph line that goes all the way across that burning! inland sea of ssnd. At, Dakar he found a railroad running up to the mouth of the Senegal river, where the steamer makes connection and carries freight and passengers to the head of TRV IRATE Olt ; other railroad picks them up and car, ries them. across to navigable water on, the Upper Niger and turns them over. to steamers that-run to Timbuctu. And at Casablanca, in the land of oo railroads, the first thing that he clambered over when he stevped from, the surf boat was an embankment with¥steel zails on top--the beginning of a French military gailroad.

Ages Femininity --Picturesque Shops Japan certainly controverts some of: the Occidental ideas a# to women's sphere, for in the province of Bhima, on the south coast of the island em- pire, women are the sterner sex and not only do post of the fleld work but are also employed as divers. They enter the water at all seasons except during the coldest months of the winter, remaining under water sometimes for over a minute, and gather shellfish and tenguss, a kind of seaweed, which they place in a small net carried by each diver at the girdle These femate divers are extremely hardy. The life is, however, trying and the constant exposure candes those engaged in it to become very 'coarse in appearance and to age quickly. The shops and booths of Japan are of unfailing interést. Here the green grocer and fruit seller has artanged his wares until it seems -as "though one looked upon a gréat bouquet. There the flower shop blazes in bril- liance and the lantern maker squats at his multi-colored task. At the next entrance we perhaps see a man severing chicken 'meat from the bone, and he perform® the operation as skillfully as the surgeon with his dissecting knife. Two or three paces further on one is con- fronted with a typical Japanese shoe store, The newcomer 1s at once startied "at the immense quantity of this sim- ple fontwear apd the many places solution to his query when he hears that a Japanese man annually makes away with from eight to ten pairs a year. But curious things are not found in shops alone. The green vegetable peddler carries loads heavy enough for a horse, but still has enough energy to call his wares as he goes, \ High Heels and Wit, HH anything could be higher than the Parisienne's hat it is her heels. The low English heel has once or twice enjoyed a brief season's favor in Paris, but at heart the Parisienne dearly loves to add a cubit or so to her stature and she achieves it of course with her beloved Louis XV. heel.

It is poison. ous and is to be found in very large numbers, when. the river 4s low. That is the time when boatmen have to get in the water to push their canoes over the shallows. They are often stung by the tail of the ray and usually die unless medical assistance js promptly given. The ray cannot be seen, as it is of the same color as the sand on which it coils itself.
