Why does man became a cannibal?
Mr. W. D. M. Hell, a contributor to
"Country Life,” thinks that the cause
U constant craving for meat in a land
where mostly grain abounds, lie tells
some Interesting things about the ex
traordinary diet of the natives of the
Huhr Aouk in Africa.
When they inhabit a stockless area,
he says, they go for months without
flesh, except of course for an occa
sional rat, mongoose or bird. In those
circumstances the craving for meat
naturally becomes Intense and In my
opinion is the cause of cunnihullsm.
When the people suddenly have al
most unlimited meat, as they do have
»lien they kill an elephant or a hippo
potamus, they simply gorge them
selves. A man will eat from fifteen to
twenty pounds In twenty-four hours.
All night long he will eut and dose and
doze again. As a result his skin turns
a peculiar dull color, and his eyes be
come yellow. On the third day he has
completely recovered his natural ap
pearance and Is again full of energy.
In a short time he wants Ills grain
food again and If he has the choice
will eat n large portion of grain to a
small portion of meat.
If, as with the elephant, there Is
much fut with the meat, the natives
are likely to become extremely tit on
that diet. For example, for sixty-
three days of consecutive marching a
kilangozi, or head porter, of mine who
was of slight build carried his mat,
his blanket, fifteen pounds of rations
nnd a tusk that weighed one hundred
and forty-eight pounds! The shortest
day was five hours, and some days
were very long Indeed. For rations
throughout the march he had two
pounds of native grain every day and
ns much meat nnd elephant fat as tie
cared for. His physical condition was
magnificent throughout.—From the
Youth’s Companion.

LAMENTS CHANGE IN FASHION
Cnpf. Charles Dingle of the freight
er Bay Port, which arrived In Port
Newark from Hawaii and the South
Sea Islnnds, brought a dismal tale of
the ravages of fashion In those once
guileless and Innocent regions. It’s
the Paris-born craze for long skirts,
»ays t ’ap’n Dingle and Ills crew,
that has sophisticated the spicy Isles.
“They’re wearln’ them straw dresses
all right,” explained Skip Slattery,
first assistant chief engineer of the
freighter, "but they’re wearln’ ’em
like a wine bottle useta he— from neck
to heels, you might say. Then they
got a new-style petticoat made o’
moss. Oh, It ain’t like what It used
to he!"
Kvon Lucky Bill Fanning, optimist
that he Is, joined In the threnody. It
was enough to make an old-time sail-
ornian shed teurs, he said, to see the
girls ail wadded up in straw and moss
like that. Why, lie could remember
when putting In nt some of those Is
lands was better than a Fourteenth
street burlesque, hut now It was duller
than Tenneck.—New York Tribune.
