The further travelled through Val
ders, the grandcr the scenery became,
the livelier the people. These-our
mountain folk" = have from olden
times looked down upon the people of
the lowlands as slow and stupid, while
the lowlanders have looked on the
mountain folk as rough, poor and proud
in the midst of.their poverty. But this
spirit is now gradually disappearing
But although the scenery in Valders
is grand aud the people lively, the
scenery In L@rdal is grander still and
its people yet more lively. When You
have passed the Fillefjeld, the road

the winter but where there are excel
lent accommodations at the posting
stations and safe conveyance by expe-
rienced and well-known drivers, the
mountains in the narrow valley of
L@rdal begin TO rise precipitously, and
become SO lofty that the further we get
into the valley the more uncomfortable
we feel, and how "cabined, cribbed,
confined!"
We sit and think: "This must at
last crush those who live here" The
post-boy on the seat behind speaks to
us. He talks in dialect the cadence
of which jumps and meanders like a
words in this wild melody are full of
RS and dipthongs, and rush out in a
dashing torrent. You feel in high
spirits, raised still higher by the loud
tone of his voice, for he who speaks
quickly generally speaks loudly, and the
folks from Sogn outvie the roaring
river or the breakers on the sea-shore.
They never meet each other on the
road in their carts or sledges without
calling out to one another and eXchang-
ing some words, continuing to shout
for some time after having passed each
other.
And if you enter into conversation
with the boy, you will find from his
questions and answers that he is pos
sessed of dauntless view of life and
upright courage and you will under
stand the truth of the saying: "These
people are masters over the nature
they live in; they soar higher than the
mountains"
The "lyrism" of the west coast, be-
gotten of its grand scenery, where
mountain and sea meet, and nourished
by the struggle between the two, is
the vital force of the country. The

The enfdnt. terrible is no myth. He
exists and holds several sessions day.
How much mischief he accomplishes in
single month heaven only knows.
Johnny Chaflie, of Austin, Texas,
had frequently covered the entire fam
lily with confusion, but of late he SEEM
ed to have reformed. His mother be-
lieved in the genuineness of his refor-
nation, but subsequent experience
justified her in comparing Johnny with
a mule that will be on its good behavior
for whole year, patiently waiting for
favorable opportunity to get in a
fatal kick.
Mrs. Chaffie and her daughter had
been invited to take tea with the family
of Col. Percy Yerger. Miss Chaffie did
not go with her mother, and Johnny
asked to go in her place. In a weak
moment she consented. At the supper
table, one of the first things he said
was:
MRS. Yerger, is them your casters ?"
Johnny" said Mrs. Chafiie, in q
hoarse whisper.
ours amt good enough for COM
pany," said Johnny; " we always go
over to Mrs. Peterby for hers
when"
II am sorry you didn't bring your
daughter" said'Mrs. Yerger, observing
how distasteful Johnny's conversation
was TO his mother.
yes" replied Mrs. Chaffie, CRATE
fully, "but Emma was not feeling well
this evening"
why, NAV, you know Emma amt
sick. She said she wouldn't wear that
shabby cloak if"
Here Johnny's flow of eloquence was
interrupted by Mrs. Peterby passing
him the cake, much to the relief of his
anxious mother.
Johnny, you had better go home
and see if Emma needs you for any
thing,' said Mrs. Chafiie
Hum She dontswant me around

Smokers, is in. the house, and he is al
ways there when you are out"
Just at this crisis young Percy Yer
ger, Jr., put in an appearance.
Il guess it amt raining out, is it ?"
said Johnny
mo, it don't look like rain," he re-
piled.
Il knew it," shifted Johnny "Pa
said You didn't have sense enough to
come in out of the rain; so when you
came in l knew right off it wasn't rain
ing"
Mrs. Chaffie did not stop on the
order of her going, but went at once,
taking Johnny with her. OF course, he
caught it, but the breach between the
Chafiies and the Yergers is five miles
wide and rapidly increasing-Teras
