Wonderful Tropical Fruits

All through the land round about are
other wonders There avenues of table

lanes Of Orinokes, whose fronds corus

are amazing shrubs--orange colored
things; there are plants With glossy
leaves speckle5 in four different colors
there are various plants that look like
wigs OF green hair, or masses of flIform
green seaweeds, set on short sticks; plants
with enormous broad leaves, SO diaphan

that do not look like real plants, but like
Oscillations of plants, like the fantasti-
calities of wood-carvers aud stone cutters
animated by witchcraft. There are
grasses that look like dwarf palms-tiny
sborescent grasses with cErving stems
and plumed heads. There are flowers of
extravagant forms and oolors-aower
that possess familiar shapes, but have
absurd tipts and unfamiliar perfumes,
yellow and indigo and green, orange and
black and crimson plants. And III all
the ponds, covering al the canals, float
the green navies of the monster lily,
Victo,ia Regia. Close to shore the
leaves are not extraordinarily large; but
they increase in breadth as they float
further out, as if gaining bulk proper
tionately to the depth of water. few
yards off, they are as large as plates
further out they are broad as dinner
trays; in the center of the pond or can al
they have surface large as tsatables. And
all have an upturned edge, perpendicu.

you see the flower-a nonsensical flower,
large as hat. Then there are fiddle
wood trees in multitude, calabash trees,
msngoes, breed-fruits, sage palms, zig
trees, and hundred unfamiliar shapes
OF which | cannot learn the names. And
there is the snake-nut tree, bearing a
most CHASTITY fruit. For this swBrt nut
shaped almost like a clam shell. ard halv'

this marvellous mockery evolved for a
protective end? IL is no eccentricity

Yetin spite Of these Advertisements, of
these novel Impressions what weird

of palms, and TO know once more the
queer sense Of being watched, without
love or hate, by all those silent, gracious,
tall, sweet things!

splendid education With an especial train

management and was expected to succeed
his father as a railroad king.
Within three years after the res onsi-
biiitiea which his farther's death drew
upon him were assumed, he is reported a
broken down man, with mind and health
permanently shattered.
George Law is another young man left
with millions of money, who ia reported
among the wrecks His father, bred a
stone mason, was of gigantic size and
strength, with commensurate brain
power, so he became great contractor,
then railroad king and left half a dozen
millions for his son to dlssipate. The
young man is a success as dissipstor.
The founders of both of these great
estates wera born in the most humble
walks OF life, grew strong, mentally and
physically, by simple living and honest
labor and developed into financial giants.
Their sons we're reared in the lap OF lux
ury and developed into intellectual
pigmies.
The great men of oar country have not,

Darieehng The last part OF this trip is
performed on a rroW-gauge road which
climbs the tall foothills of the Himalayau
range in a most curious, zigzsg fashion,
the road constantly doubling upon itself
at interesting elevations. AS the traveller
progresses Aocks Of Thibet goats appear
and a harder race of men and =cmen are
seen than those left behind on the plsius
of Hindoostan. The lsborers been on the
route are com posed of men, women and
girls, tho latter using pick and shovel as
readily as do the men. The PEOPLE are
from Thibet, Nepsul and Cashmere,
which countries border on Northern India.
These mingled races form picturesque
groups, the men armed with long, sword
Ike knives, and the women are clad IN
bright color5 and short skirts.
When Darjeeliug is reached we are over
1000 feet above the plains, and here "e
find ourselves in full view OF the loftie7s
range Of mountains in he world, literal
