A recent number of the "Woman at Home" publishes a portrait of Miss Mary Hall, who is to lecture to-night. Her book, "A Woman's Trek from the Cape to Cairo," which she claims is written minus big-game romances, also minus the usual exaggerations rncidenial to all things African,' is a pleasantlyrwriiten-' account, making light of hardships which others might have dwelt upon at length. Miss HaH tells of her trek as the .first woman of any nation who has undertaken this journey, and emphasises the fact that she only dwells at length on the- more' unknown parts of Africa', and "rather skipped over ■ the thousand . miles or more which lie between Gondokoro and Khartoum."
