Rarotonga and Cook Islands

OUR Rarotongan paper, the Tuatua-Mou (Truth) is doing an excellent work. On the day of the steamer's arrival, I had quite an interesting time. The natives flocked around me for their papers, as bees do after honey. They say, Tuatua-Mou meitaki (very good). Every mail from the other islands brings me letters inquiring after our literature. Our books are being sold in other islands by native colporteurs.
We find much to do in the treatment of the sick and in dressing sores. My experience in the slums of Chicago, eleven years ago, is now proving very helpful to me in treating some of these cases. F. E. LYNDON.
Rarotonga.
