SimplebC7tal'la1 colitis is a not imminence' affection. It niay cerise from the same cause as catarrh of other mucous membranes, as of the Ie.,nchiul tubes, for example, or it may be caused by the presenee in the intens I:n' bf indigestible or partially decoi►- p. ped food; a not infrequent cause is censtipotien, the matters which should be discharged being retained, and by their presence setting up an irritation. '1'I:o most prominent symptom is diur•- rl.era. This usually coulee on sudden- ly, and is watery in choractet., often tinged with blood. Associated with this is considerable abdominal pain, occur- ring in paroxysms,—cutis,—und follow - In; the course of the large intestine, at c ee or the other side of lire abdomen or along its upper border. The appetite is poor, the tongue :s ce alcd with a %while fur, nauseu is coni - n:• n, and vomiting bunictirues occurs. 'Piero is usually more or less fever, and t: e pulse Is rapid and weak. The treatment consists in absolute rest in Led. a very restricted diet (pre- ferably milk and limewaler in small (•1anti1ies), and the administration of astringent remedies. The latter is, of course, to be left to the physician, for nitwit harm may be done by injudicious medication. The symptoms of dysentery rare very similar to those of the disease wider consideration, but dysentery is a much more serious affection. The pos- sibility that the disease is dysentery ra- !her than simple colitis is an added rea- r. n for seeking medical advice, and net attempting to cure the trouble with domestic treatment. Another and more serious form of iu- fiamnnntion of the colon is what is call- ed membranous colitis. This disease occurs usually in young adults, and in WJ111011 more commonly than in inen. The initial symptoms are similar to these of simple colitis, but the dein rho%a does not last long, ani alternates milli periods of obstinate constipation. In the pnssages, especially during the periods of constipation, are patches • f membrane, sornetiuiese of considerable SIM looking like wet parchment, -form- ed of sheets of tenacious mucus. The subjects of this disease, which is chronic in character, tire usually dys- pw plie, suffering much from flatulence, anemic, and depressed in spirit. The L t atnient is mainly hygienic. The p:,tient should live much in the open ter, have long hours of sleep, eat plen- ty of nourishing food, scrupulously avoiding fried meals, pastry, and other indigestible articles of diet. A change of air and scene is often curative in its effects. The patient should also, if pos- bible, have some light but interesting occupation, ohicli will serve to turn his mind from his ailment. ACQUIRE ART OF RELAXING. Relaxing is an art not difficult to ac- quire. Just flop, limbering every joint hi your 'oily as a baby does. Don't nl- ow any stiffness to remain anywhere in your anatomy. Begin with your neck and think about every joint from there Oran to your toes, until they are loose. Then try to think of nothing whatever or of sonmetlhing trivial and pleasant. Fifleen minutes passed in this way will rest you more than hours of restless, troubled sleep. Your nerves will regain their tone, and small troubles will be cn•:ily passed over; your expression will 1'e cheerful and attractive, and ugly fines will he smoothed out and driven away, making you appear years young- er'. 1iOME REMEDIES.

Cannibal Tribes Are Superkir, Mculally - and Ph)sically, to the Non - litters. utcrs Man is still much eaten by his fellow elan. It is .a.irnated that millions of savages on the upper Congo aro nivel- crate (omelette. Millions more perhaps !lave the same Lasto in New Guinea and certain groups of the So8th Sea islands, notably the Soonons; the New Ibebthdes and New Ireland. Why this should t•e so is a mystery that Iias perplexed the antheopoogists. David Livingstone, tho first white pian to cross the elunyeniu country in Cen- tral Africa, Was reluctant to believe that cannibalism was not in some way as- sociated with superstitious Was. But when ho saw the eagerness of the na- lites for what was evidently (heir favor- ite food he could no longer closet his (ea, to the simple fact—the Congo roan pheierred human flesh to any other kind of meat. The extent of the practice is indicated ir tho evidence given before the various outgo inquiry Couumisckms. One native witness after another carne forward and laid on the table bundles of twigs or leaves, each one regir-x'nting u human lxing that had bcru killed and eaten by the so-called sentries employed by the lirlgian administration to supervise Inc bringing in of robber. It has even been asserted that (hose tribes which do not indulge in the prac- tice aro inferior, mentally and physi- cally, to the cunnibals. "And yet, said Livingstone, spiraling of the Manyenn, "They aro a fine looking race. 1 would back them to be superior in 51181)0 and general physique to the entire Antluo- poogical Society." For many years travellers generally omitted from their books mention of cannibalism. Such stories would, they fancied, be considered exaggerated if not i'OSITIVEI.I' UNTRUE. But of la;o the explorers of all nation- alities have studied botit people and practice with scientific zeal. Sir harry Johnston, Herbert Ward, Commandant Guy Burrows of the Congo administration, l)r- Parke. Capt. S. L. Hinde, also in King Leoiold's service, and many others :lave spent years among the Congo tribes, and then give in a matter-of-fact way details of the habits of the savages which are almost incredible. In ttto Bangala country not only are the bodies of thoso slain in battle eaten, but the natives habitually kilt men for food. And about this there is much curious system, such as in- clines students of anthropology to sus- pect some hidden origin. Thus the prisoner is not killed out- right, but is placed chin deep in a pool of water with his head made fast to a log lest ho drown. The victims limbs, Ly the way, Have been broken three days previously. On the third day the poor creature is taken out and killed. This procedure, the fierce Bangala say, makes the flesh more tender. ('.apt -S. I.. tirade, returning home from Stanley halls on the Conger, had personal experience of these people. On the down river trip to Boma six of the Bangala crew were put in irons, charged with having eaten two of their own compan- ions. The accused were magnificent savages, over 6 feel high and superbly proportioned. Two of tho crew, it seemed, hnd fallen 11: on the voyage up, 011(1 were allowed by tete captain to take a few days rest. But when next rations were served they were mlisning. The master of the steam- er was told they had died in the night and been buried ashore. And this seemed likely enough. Rut the captain of tine ship had Itis doubts. Ile made a sudden raid on the quarters of his Ban - gala hands, and discovered PARTS OF 'l-IiE MISSING MEN, smoke dried and cut up conveniently in tee lockers of the six suspects, now go - Mee to trial at Len;eldville. in truth, the Darwinian theory of the survival of the iltlest is seen in Central Africa in all its pitiless applicnlion. Even women, unable to keep up with the Innrch of the warriors, are killed and cut up for food instead of being left behind et the mercy of other trihee or wild beasts. Nor do the blacks of the Congo tweet encumber themselves with the sick or lame, who are similarly disposed o'. The ennnibnls in all cases extract the teeth of their human prey for necklaces and bracelets. The hair is made into fishing lines and nets; the skin goes'to over war drums and the skulls become fashionable decorations in tine homes of Tribal chiefs. whose greatest glory is a long array of these trophies of the chase. connmi ndont Guy Burrows.

Challenged by Burrows, the man said . he was only bearing food for his ct inraites—just banana food. But in fact he and several others lad been constantly going to and fro (rein the scene of the fight, cutting up the bodies and bringing them down in small parcels so as not to attract the white Man's attention as they passed his tent. Yet in this very country are tribes that would not cat (human flesh if they were starving; tine curious little pygmies, for instance, of trio Great Forest. Yet these ate, infinitely fewer in the social wale 11►a1 the cannibals—lilllo better Ulan apes, in fact. Their huts would disgrace an intelli- gent animal. They have no arts, nor do they till the soil. 'I1,.se queer little no- mads exist by hutting, trapping and fishing. They even pursue the elephant, shooting it in the foot with poisoned ar- rows and then tracking it until it be - cranes helpless, when they finish off the monster with their spears. Capt. Iavart S. Grogan, the explorer, who walked the (viral(' length of Africa from the (et a to Cairo, collected nn►plo te,titia ny of the pygmies' aversion to human flesh. Ile witnessed a big tribal light in Ibis country between the Ilnteko find the ltangala, and oiler all was over he came upon the victors feasting on the bodies of the slain, while the tiny ape men, weary as they were with their share of the fray, were seeming the country round for vegetable food. Herbert Ward, F.11. G. S., is another traveller who has given much study to this giestiou. And he, too, testifies that the savages of the Upper Ct iigo simply prefer human meat to any other. They asked tiiin innocently if he also did not teeny it, and each headman in Fringing presents to rho white traveller— skinny fowls, bananas, sugar cane, and so on—invariably include! quantities of smoke dried meat, spilled on skewers and unmistakeably of human origin. "We do as our fathers have done," thews savages told him with tun indifferent shrug. when remonstrated with on the subject. "It is good to eat meat that talked," complacently said another trite. In the Ubangi country Mr. Ward be- held the alerts necks adorned with strings of human teeth, dried lingers and collarbones; and all the houses were (Imelda' with skulls on the outside. In the Ngonrbi region on the Lulungu Inver, a migli y tributary of the Congo, eight lnandeed miles from the Atlantic coast, Mr. Ward found a series of strongly for- tified villages, where the Ubangi canni- bals casae to buy slaves, drawing upon the supplies for food as required. Turning to lite South Sea Islands, the Gernnns, Dutch and British are striving to put down cannibalism in their respec- tive si:heres in New Guinea. So far these efforts have met with little success. The practice is too deep seated to be eradi- cated in a gbgeneration or two. No New Guinea ninfilen will look with favor on :t -suitor w•twoeo but is not plastered with humin skulls as testimony to his prow- ess as hunter and general provider for the home. In the Solomon Islands, New Britain and New Ireland. the natives aro also cannibals from delibcrnte choice. In the Fiji Islands as late as 1850 lived cretin - bids its ruthless tie any on earth.
