An Iceland Winter.

By November the winter had begun
with all its rigor, and fierce storms
swept over land and over the sea,
which lost its blue and became dull
and dark. One by one the ships left
the harbor of Reykjavik; then the last
mail-ship sailed, and Iceland was cut
off until spring from communication
with the outside world.
Although the climate of South Ice
land is cold, the winter is scarcely
what one would he led to expect from
the northern situation. There is not
much snow. A few inches usually lay
upon the ground, crisp and hard, but
not the piled up drifts of New Eng
land winter. Accordingly it was pos
sible to make horseback excursions to
the farms round about, and to see the
winter life of the people in the cOun-
try. This season for the Icelander is
a time of comparative rest. As moth
ing can be done abroad he stays of ne
cessity at home, but his life is no mere
Information. He sleep great deal,
for his house is insuiliciently lighted
and the nights are long, but by day
light he has occupations enough. He
has boats to build and oars to shape;
mend; or he sorts the wool which the
women spin into yarn and then knit
into stockings, or weave into coarse
homespun or flannel, like DddDadt. A
busy sound of whirring wheels often
greets the ear when you enter the
farmhouse. and you find the women all
at work at one end of the long room.
| Another duty devolves on the heads OF
the household at isolated farms. There
are good elementary schools in many
places throughout the island, but in re'
mote districts the children must bt
taught at home. In summer the time
is occupied with out-of-door work, but
in the comparatively idle days of win
ter the father, or not infreqently the
mother, teaches the children of eithel
sex the common branches. Iceland i:
perhaps the best-educated community
on the face of the earth; Throughout
the length and breadth of the lane
there is nobody who cannot read an'
write, and the general knowledge O
some of these obscure fisherman-farm
ers is sometimes well-nigh appalling
