But if there was no innocence on the turf, rogues could not live; they are not cannibals not, at all events, while they can obtain tenderer food. And are there not commercial circles also which could not exist without their equally innocent supporters? Experience may be a dear school, but its lessons are never forgotten. A very little should go a long way, and the wisest make it go farthest.
They reminded me of, as no doubt they are, the prototypes of the account given by the natives of the Charlotte Waters telegraph station, on my first expedition, who declared that out to the west were tribes of wild blacks who were cannibals, who were covered with hair, and had long manes hanging down their backs.
At the end of an hour he looked over the edge of the plateau and found it surrounded by a ring of the black cannibals, who had calmly seated themselves to watch his movements. "Perhaps they intend to starve me into surrender," he thought; "but they won't succeed so long as my tablets hold out.
More Hottentots and cannibals wearing clothes and losing their taste for human flesh. And so universal Peace has come to stay. There will not be another war. "And yet the Dresden barracks were never so full of soldiers, and the German bases of military supplies are crammed. The munition factories are running on extra-time schedules.
But it's to be hoped the cannibals won't get hold on you. I've only seen one person come back from foreign parts alive, and that was Tom Clark, and he was a sailor. But I reckon there are a few beside him that live to come back! 'You'll not be marryin' an Indian prince out there, miss? put in Deb anxiously. 'Miss Gwen is a Christian, Patty said solemnly.

To my mind, 'scientific exactitude' is rather shown in confessing ignorance than in adding to the list of guesses. Conclusion as to Professor Tiele I did not cite a tithe of what he actually did say to our credit.
God had given her the chance to reach the wild cannibals. She was willing to die trying to bring the Gospel to them. "I am willing to go anywhere," said Mary, "provided it be forward among the cannibals." Mary anxiously waited for the answer from the Mission Board giving her permission to work for six months in the cannibal country. The answer did not come and did not come.
"Well, it's this then: I got to have a boat to get there; and she must be stocked. And I got to have help with the treasure, if it's like this fellow said it was. And the Yaquis and cannibals from Tiburon is through the country. It's money I got to have, and it's money I haven't got, and can't get unless I let somebody in as pardner." "Why me?" I asked. "Why not?" he retorted.
And while he was in the trap, helpless and unable to defend himself, three or four of his lovely tribe jumped upon him and tried to kill him for breakfast. We hove in sight just in time to drive the cannibals off. We kept Wolf, sewed up his side and throat, tamed him and to-morrow night you will see how Mukoki has taught him to get even with his people."
Taken completely by surprise, the cannibals were shot down like sheep; and Frobisher scarcely realised what was happening until he saw the last savage throw up his hands and fall.
