Text Appearing Before Image:
ll the Avliile at his ex-pense, and never leaving him until the lastplantain has been eaten and the last drop ofrum drunk. He has not strength of mindto resist the flattery which is heaped uponhim, and considers himself bound to rewardhis eulogists by presents. Consequently, atthe end of a week or two he is as poor aswhen he started on his expedition, and isobliged to go off and earn more money,of which he will be robbed in a similarmanner when he returns. These feasts are not very enticing to theEuropean palate, for the Mpongwe have noidea of roasting, but boil all their food inearthen vessels. They have little scrupleabout the different articles of diet, but willeat the flesh of almost any animal, bird, orreptile that they can kill. Among the Mpongwe, the government ismuch the same as that of the other tribesin Western Equatorial Africa. The differentsub-tribes or clans of the Mpongwe are ruledby their headmen, the principal chief of adistrict being dignified with the title of king.
