1.11?. t* plays a Ij&rtfe part In thj lives
0f ,t4+ewe ft nsants, and after the pre?
llminaiies have been settled the next
recognized stage In the proceedings Is
for the bridegroom-elect to provide *
capanna-?the poor little hut? In com
parlson with which a thatched cot
tage Is an establishment de luxe. The
householdor will personally lay the
ring of foundation stones for the hut,
then fell the young trees from the
nearest wood, a friend helping with
the framework of tree trunks. Onto
this frame he placid layer upon layer
of straw, and, fastening all down,
completes his building by leaving a
tiny chimney-hole at the top.
Running Brook a Luxury.
llappy Is she whose man has had
the good sense to build a capanna
with h brook running In front, so she
may be hpared the toll of a couple of
miles' tramp under a broiling sun with
a heavy basket of clothes on her head
to accomplish the family wash. An
orange tree on one side of the hut and
a prickly pear tree covering the wall
on the other side Is the sole conces
sion to elegance. Should the bride
wish to attempt any cooking, she will
have to make friends with a neighbor,
for the average newly married couple's
capannn has no furnace.
In time, If things prosper, both
working together, they may accom
plish a furnace of stones, and leading
on from this the next ambitious
achievement will be a little thatched
pen, like a miniature Indian wigwam,
for the pig. The donkey, hens and
ducks will continue living with the
family untlf such a time as the two
are in a position to provide a rough,
oblong shelter. Indeed, by dint of
sheer perpetual hard work, grit and
continual self-denial, they might man
age Well enough were It not for the
curoe of the Campagna?malaria.
Country of Yellow Faces.
Even yet, in spite of continued ef
forts on th<* part of the government,
the Campagna remains the "country
of the yellow faces," where malaria
has so changed the blood of sturdy
farmers, vigorous llshermen. strong,
healthy shepherds and charcoal burn
ers that they crawl about like so many
corpses until death seizes them.
The poor wretch In the throes of
tertian fever, finding no comfort on
his wretched pile of straw that serves
for bed, asks his wife to light r, fire,
and immediately the room is choked
with wood smoke, for which there is
insufficient escape. In the throes of a
deadly chill, he drags himself outside
to borrow a little warmth from the
sun, and he and his wife wait with
dumb fatality for the fever to abate
nnd bring a more or less prolonged
resplto, or for the heavier fever that
brings release. More often than not
both sufi'er together.
For tin* majority the doctor is more
or less a chimera, an un get at-able
person who lives in the fortress
stronghold* of the mountains. More
over, how can people whose sole Idea
of luxury is an occasional treut of
black dough flavored with bacon and
lamb And the money to pay his fee,
let alone the horse to act as convey
ance? So one accepts the Inevitable
and either dies or recovers; and, of
course, there Is quinine, which the
government now supplies gratis iu
manv districts.

the goal may be reached. Reports
