“The Li’l Wife In Africa"'] ,(Editor’s Note: Secause so many people have suggested we write some of our African experiences; and because so much is written of big'game, and so little of housekeeping near the Equator, the editor's wife is writing, from the diary she kept, ‘about “The LiT Wife in Africa.”) (Continued from Last Week) The captain, or whoever was guiding our ship, just turned corners the.whole way ip the river Scheldt, and pretty soon we edged into Antwerp dock, without the least little- bump. Everyone rushed to get his baggage under the custom shed, according to which letter of the .alphabet was used in the start of bis name. As we were in transit to Africa. we went right through without .much difficulty, to a model car, called a taxi for short. It rushed us across town to the railroad station, past the most p mammoth horses I hid ever seen, pulling just stacks of boxes. I knew .back home, girls whose fothers < had a certain income; rode horseback sometimes, but I never even imagined a horse so large that where its tail started was higher from the ground than a man’s head. And here ..not just one horse was that large, they most all were. We had to be -pretty careful to ludiave correctly, and not comment dm things, bee iuse we were Americans abroad-now. We. had more than two weeks Indore we must return to Antwerp. from which point the boat sailed for the Congo. So we found tire tropical supply house to buy equipment for Africa. Like so many ptaces of business oh the continent, it was pretty well efisg lised, you’ld n< ver have guessed what it was. It had a Jieavy wooden door, minus and window, opening right on the edge’,, of the sidewalk. Having shopped there before, the present editor pounded on the door and pullet! a-cord which we hoped rang a- bell. Af- )■ ter a while, an attendant can-!. i tiously-opened it. and let us step ! into a brick floored hallway. You’ld have thought we were visiting a bootleggar’s. ■ A big doorway on the right of j the entrance hall opened on a I long room, which was lined from' floor to ceiling with shelves of white helmets and khaki colored helmets, and sh-irts and things of use in the tropics. The shop owner came -forward, long mustaches and all arid pretty soon our heads were aching from - trying on helmets. .And my vanity received a death blow’from which it has never recovered. Girls in the movies who wear helmets don’t look like what I saw in the mirror. - I Then the proprietor showed us. camp equipment -our future living equipment folding beds, and oil lamps that came into Flirts that folded, and a box lined with eating and cooking utensils, most of which folded and fitted into compartments, and a folding table and chairs. I said I’d trust . anything but a folding bath tub, but the editor remembered that they . ; are safe, and non-collapsible. ( They were of green metal like ■ all trunks, insect tooth-proof - only the tub was oval shape instead of rectangular. It was small enough-so. that the folding would have to be done by the bather- who would fold his under, his.chcin. Like the trunks, it was small, as baggage where we were going is transported on the headts of negroes. A trunk measures about 28 inches long, 16 inches wide, and a foot deep. We got the usual outfits, knee high, glove fitting mosquito boots and all. and the present ■< editor almost haci to be nasty in order to get his white suits made with American length coat tails and sleeves. He<4wul to keep insisting that his nrousers belt rested about his hnp bones, instead of hanging from suspenders near his chin. When it came time to get back to Antwerp to sail for Africa, we visited the Portugese consul there, to get our visa\for Angola. We accomplished thiss in a short while, and no life history asfed. We almost had tojright to Ret aboard nearly everyone on the continent was on board already, with a few hunderd others on the one gangplank. The husband promised me the cjrowd was just down to say goodbye, that they weren’t all gding. I certainly was glad, for what would blackest Africa ; be with that many whites ar- ; riving on every boat? Everyone was weeping, and ) plump-- young men, pink-eyed, ; were getting their pictures tak- ; en with mothers, sisters, grand- I mothers and cousins. ' I It was quite different from ; the gay crowd tending off the < boat fipm Nev; York. These I

“KONJOLA BEST INVESTMENT I EVER MADE” Freed Os Many Ailments —Happy La<ly Pays Tribute To New Medicine SKk - -r * s ' » JKf MRS. GEORGE CLEMENTS ' £ ■ “Konjola. was the best investment I ever made, for it repaid me in health and happiness,” said Mrs. George (Clements, ,208 Beauth Ave., Indianapolis. “I was a dreadfully feruridown condition, suffering from stomach and kidney trophies. I could not-enjoy a meal, nights were dreadful. Nervousness resulted anil almost drove me frantic. Constipation allowed poisons to gather in my system and make matters all the worse. “When Konjola was recommended I decided to take one more chance; make one more effort to regain my health. But I was taking no chance with Konjola. It soon proved to be exactly .what. I needed. My system was cleansed and strengthened. Konjola restored my digestion and increased my appetite. Then it corrected my kidneys and banished constipation. Glorious health is. mine again and I owe it all to Konjola—the medicine without a peer.” 11 T •Konjola is sold in Syracuse at (Thornburg Drug Co., and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section. • people made you feel your farewells were final, and the obituaries for travellers to Africa already written.

BOTH TEAMS (Continued from First Page) Grady led, scoring 9, Bittner 4, Lung 3, ; Nicodemus 2; Gordy, Rich hart, Hen wood and Jones also playing. Slesman of Albion was the referee, who didn’t let opinions fi-om the crowd bother him. Several of the Syracuse team's backers narrowly escaped some bruises during the game, fast, wild throws carrying the ball into the crowd twice, once just missing Harry Clemens, and the second time forcing ♦ Dr. O. C. Stoelting to dodge. Two opposing players during the second half fell into the crowd, almost into the laps of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Maloy. o Mr. and Mrs. Owen Strieby spent the week end in Decatur. Mrs. Strieby’s sister and brother, Verdena and Ollie Johnston returned with them for a few days vi’sit here.
