Kabarega, the negro king of Unyoro,
in Central Africa, is a man who rules his
subjects with a rod o f iron. Like all ty
rants, he regulates their smallest actions,
and a host o f spies inform him o f any
disobedience to his commands.
Am ong other things, he has made a
fixed tariff o f prices for everything
bought or sold in his country, and every
deviation from it is severely punished.
An instance of this is given by Vita Has-
san in ins book about Emin P a s h a and
the Equatorial Province.

Soon afterward a dragoman of the king

“ A fow l costs only 25 cowries, while
you have given 130. The seller has done
wrong, and the king w ill punish him.

Within ten days Ivan came home. He
was attired out of severest respect for

tears rushed into his eyes und he cried as

W hat was my surprise when Ivan at
once began to wean me from the notion
of going home!
"W h y , do you know,” he exclaimed,
“ that I had fully made up my mind to

with you? I like O lef very much. He
seems such a cap)till good fellow, and 1
am heartily glad that you have set your

I thanked him for his kind regard, a)
though not without blushing a bit, I
must confess.
“ And now." he resumed, "le t me offer
you u bit of advice. O lef is getting
ready to enter the profession of law, is
ho not?"
"H e lias graduated anil been admitted

"(ju ite to my notion, then. If I am

one hundred thousand kronor -about
twenty-eight thousand dollars in Amer

“ Yes," was iny answer, us his wonLs,
“ Not half as charming as her dot," ut
tered uisin the night o f iny arrival, flew
back to my memory, ami still I could
not connect their meaning with the pres
ent, because Ivan seemed so interested in
O le f s and my future.
‘Could your fortune lie converted into
ready money?" he bluntly asked.
‘ It is invested in securities which
might lie negotiated,” I returned.
‘ Very gissl. O f course you want to
double your fortune, it would be hut
quite natural thut you should. Olef. be
ing a barrister, can quite readily accom
