MoSAsrIc LtFE.-Bayard Taylor, describing
the monastery called the "Grand Chartreuse,"
in the south of France, speaks OF q single cor
ridor six hundred and SIXTY feet long Looking
down it tlie perspective dMindles almost to u
point. Opening from it, and from the other in
tersecting corridors, the cells of the monks,
each with II biblical sentence in Latin painted
on the doors. The furniture of these cells is
very simple, but human skull is always d part
and silent monotony of life is the cultivation
OF a few flowers i'll garden attached to each
cell. Silence is imposed upon all, and the
priests. guides, and visitors can speak only i'll
to startle the dead repose of the corridor by u
shout of freedom and rejoicing. In this cele-.
brnfEf rI0hastery there are but forty fathers
and twenty brothers. This monastery dates
from the year 1893.

. ROMANCE OF AiAsKA.-it was to be expected
that the limits OF tacr would soon be exhausted
with regard TO the treasures and wonders of the
new teritnry of Alaska, and that fancy would
lie drawn upon to increase its stock of maryels.
But the following tale of enchantment is en-
tirely beyond the Widest anticipation. A Rus
sian guide, ii seems, being lately asked by
traveller aGont certain mountain range in
They are mighty in size and cause much
cold. Wonderful things are told of them. 1t
is said that in some places there deep pools
and lakes, i'll which dwell ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
AIS long fir tree, which, were they in the
open sea, would commit mighty damage One
thing is certan-that yonter, far, away to the
north in the heart Of these hills there is Won
dsrtui valley, 10 narrow that only at midday is
the face Of the sun 10 be seen. That valley lny-
undiscovered and unknown thousands of
years no person dreamed of its existenee; but
ut last, long time ago, two Indian hunters
entered 1t by chance, and then what do you
think they foundf They found u small tribe of
unknown people, speaking unknown tongue,
who had lived there since the creation of the
world, and without knowing that other beings
existed"
Here is splendid chance for strange discov-
