The most wonderful weapons in his

wonderful elasticity, are undoubtedly
the blades of Damascus.
The sabre OF Japan, though as hard as
a diamond, with an edge so acute that

Swords have been made during the

been turned out which bend till the

roughly divided into three conditions
Snow and ice fields bury the coast range
and choke up every hollow; to the i'm

barren, but the vast interior beyond is
richly clothed in luxuriant vegetation.
The scientific authorities theoretically
mapped out giant ice fields as spreading
over the entire land from the FAIR

north almost to the valley Of the Yukon.
Colossal heights mantled in never

in the air, but within the shadow Of
these mighty upland., in the sheltered
hollows beneath, lie immense valleys
carpeted in richest grasses, and grace
fully tinted with wild flowers. Here in

where strawberries and other wild fruits
