gray and drab desolation of these
lands lies the richest fertility. AL
the elements of productiveness are
latent there, and only need the reviv-

to activity and usefulness. Eastern
capitalists have not been slow to see
this land and to act accordingly
The latests evidence of this comes
from Chicago, where, it is said, gi-
gantic scheme is on foot for irrigat-
ing 100000 acres of this desert land
in Southern California. Thisis to be
accomplished by mpounding the
water from the mountains in i'm
mense storage reservoirs, whence it
will be conducted to the land by a
system of pipes, bitches, and fumes.
This is just what has been done at
Riverside, Redlands, Los Angeles,
Pasadena, Fresno, and a score OF
other places, where the results have
been most gratifying, and the profits
ample.

Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

The Chatauquan.
The garden rose to a perpendicu
lar height Of two hundred and fifty
feet. Arches supported each tier on
this side. Those in the Coliseum gave
some idea of the architecture. From
the three other sides, the structure
rose in five pyramidal stages each
fifty feet in height, and upborne by
pillars of brick and stone over TWEEN
ty feet in circumference. The second
stage was supported on six hundred
and twenty-fy pillars. and the fifth
on one hundred and sixty-nine. I'm
agine the grandeur of these ascents,
when the total number of column
reached fifteen hundred and ninety
four, of the same height and circum-
ference. Each of these platforms as
we'll as the top were finished fat: first.
in reeds mixed with bitumen; over
this a solid brick masonry; next COW
cred by q coating of lead from across
the desert; the whole surmounted by
a layer of earth thick enough for the
roots of the largest trees. A wind
ing decorated staircase led from
Within to the top. Fountains flash
ed everywhere. Groves grew,-who
knew how? Seen from a distance the
forest seemed to have leaped into
mid-air. Flowers ran over the math-
ematical accuracy of the design like
freshets of color. Every plant
known to Babylonia, or imported by
her florists from Persia, Judea, Sy-
ria, or Media was fostered here.
While soldiers dropped of sunstroke
and slaves died for water, these roy
al flowers were shaded and cherished
day and night. Should a vine droop,
chosen by acknowledgements to please
a tickle queen or a bud die that had
been honored by royal selection?
A line of slaves carried the water,
which they dared not taste, in skins,
to freshen this dream of delight.
Garden houses and exquisite apart

leaves. The sumptuous fancy, which
was highly cultivated by therace and
by the age, gave itself every possible
trick to make the mountain garden
agreeable to the mountain queen.

till she became years OF age. Jumps formed in
her neck, causing great annoyance, and two OF
them, after growing to the size OF pigeons egg,
broke and discharged. One became a running
sore for more than three years. We thought we
would give Hoods SarsapariHa a thorough trial
We began with itin January. and in few months
after she had taken five bottles, all suppuration
had ceased, We then waited three months,
when, as a new lump was beginning to form, we
5agaln gave her Hoods Sarsaparilla. After she
had taken less than two bottles the lump and all
Indications OF scrofula had entirely disappeared,
and now she seems to be healthy child
