We paid visit to Paetor llSoslef yesterday, snd

The weather has changed greatly since our ar
rival From 2:}o below zero on Sunday evening, it
rose to SO above last night, with furious hurr-
cane Of snow from the north. This morning the
wind has somen hat abated, and the temperature
(l6o abore sero) is wonderfully mild and agreeable
80 that our reindeer garments feel oppresslvely
warm. We are now waiting for our deer to come
in fr IN the hills in order to start our return to
Muonoyara. The I.apps have an Oriental dlsre-
gard of time and as there is no chance of our get
ting of before noon, We have improved part OF the
delay in visiting the native schools ana some OF the
earthern buts, or, rather, dens, in which most of
the inhabitants live There were two schools, each
containing about twenty scholars-fat, greasyyoung
.ters, swaddled in reindeer skins, with blue eyes
light brown or yellow hair, and tawny red cheeks
wherever the original color could be discerned. As
the rooms were rather warm, the odor of Lapp
childhood was not quite as fresh as a cowslip, and
We did not tarry long among them
Approaching the side of pile OF dirt covered
with snow We pushed, one after another against
a small square door, hung at such slant that 1t
closed of itself and entered an ante-den used as
store-room Another similar door ushered us into
the house, a rude, vaulted space, framed With
poles, sticks and reindeer hides, and covered COM
pactly with earth except narrow opening IN the
top to let out the smoke from fire hndled in the
center. Pieces Of reindeer hide, dried flesh, bags
of fat, and other articles hung from the frame and
dangled against heads as We entered Tho
den was not more than FIVE feet high BY about
eight feet in diameter. The owner, a jolly, good
humored Lapp gave me low wooden STOOL while
his wife, with pipe in her mouth, squstted down
on the hide which served for a bed and looked at
me with amiable curiosity. / contemplated them
for vhile with my eyes full of tears (the smoke
being very tbick) until finally both eyes and nose
could endure no more, and 1 sought the open air
again. b. T.
