part of the enh where atore aro
rtlU ur.knoan. primjtrr barter belrg the
only meana cf trade.
The most primitive form of barter I
silent trad-, which Is common today. It
is carried on by persona a ho do not ad
dress or see each other. In many parts
of AfrVa this it the on!y form of trade
known to the people. It i carried on
ta some such way as this: When the
traveler arrive he lay drn hi ware
at a certain plare and then goes away.
Next day be returns and find other
articles pZaced cppoaite to hi gcod.
If satiated with what he finds he takes
hi merchandise and ge c5: If not he
leoTe It and the inhabitant of the coun
try add something more. ' Sometime the
natives take back their roods and leave
those of the merchant. The natives aro
especially fond cf red cloth snd consider
thia a worthy commodity of exchange.
With some tribe the merchant lay his
goods down at an appointed p'aee. first
sounJing a gong. Then the hy native
come with their ware, place them appo
site the merchAht a. and sound a gong.
The foreigxer return and If satisfied
carri off hi wares, leaving those for
the native behind. The merchants call
this 'giving to savart- In order to bar
ter. -
The Veddahs. when they want axes
or arrow, make models cf them ard
carry tbera by eight to the armorer"
doer and leave them with a haJf boar
or stag. The armorer make the Weap
on and Jvacg them up where the fleeli
was laid, and the Veddah takes tLeia
away the followir.g eight,
Some of the people in the Mosquito
territory have even more conscience la
the honesty ,f the trad. They plant
a peeed. painted stick IB a coiivplcucua
place at the mouth of a tributary, and
j "Ach to Ui surrounding iree bunches
oi piantainL baskets of maize, clothe,
and akin, each article having- affixed to
It what they want in return. If tbeoo
article remain untouched the river In
dians bring them to the coast village.
Even when natives and traders meet
these transActions are mAde In perfect
sllenoe- Thi is true of some f the
CVylon trader as well as in Abyssinia,
and of the natives at Kotset-ue sound.
When the merchants and their Teasels
rrtv they unload their ware en the
beacK and the native canw with their
srare. They place their good opposite
to those of the merchant to show what
they want in exchange.
The trader thtn makes aa offer. amaTI
at first, but gradually twreasea IL If
the merchant hesitate about adling
more the native accepta it as rufSeient,
snatches it tip, and darts o7 ta a neigh
boring yungle.
Tbeoo place are made definite- la
Gttrnea the line Is drawn upon th sand
betaeen the trad.ng pnieA Tama aro
laid on cne ride of the line, and bread,
or tobacco, or whatever 1 t on the
other. If th Booby i atiAed he step
acre the line and takea hi article, leav
ing the trader hi yama.
OrJtaha is a great meeting place for
the African tribe,, who come togethter
to deal with Europeans A motley crowd
of gesticulating; negroes gwlng and com
ing ceter the shore, and the river ia
covered with canoes. The scene I busy
and tturiou: at cne piioe women ex
hibit rallcoeA at another calabashes of
salt- The men walk about arrangtn;
noisy bargains for palm oil or Ivory and
ex chan re them for goods they need Chl
