You have always taken such great
interest in my home life that 1t will not
be amiss 70 give You little account Of
my movements abroad.
My first few weeks in Europe were
spent In Sodeu, one Of che many delight
fol summer resorts 10 the Taurus noun
tains, between Frankfurt and Wies'
baden.
The life there IL a facsimile of that OF
other German springs. From six to
eight o'clock in the morning the In.
yalids and other strangers In the city
saunter along the grand promenade.
which connects the different hot and
cold springs.
Here people OF all nationalities ex'
change greetings, sip the health-givinR
waters, and listen TO the fine open air
concerts which tAko place every morn
ing at this carly hour,
The Germans certainly have great
faith in the charms Of music, for at all
summer resorts, no matter how small,
you can hear q good concert every
morning, afternoon, and evening.
During my sisters and brother'o va
cation We were In Switzerland So
many have attempted to describe SWISS
scenery. Still, In my mind, the best
drawn pictures can be but begRarly re.
productions OF Its real grandeur. We
spent most Of our time near Interlaken.
This iB the place for sort Of midsum-
mer rendezvous for the fashionable
world Of New York aud the different
European metropollses. Surely tho
confusion OF tongues at the Towor OF
Babel could not have been greater than
on the principal street OF 1nterlaken
during the heighth Of the season.
From there vo made innumerable
short trips to the mountains and lakes
in the vicinity.
There are quite q number OF glaciers
and snow-capped mountains in that
part Of Switzerland.
We next went to Lucerne. and every
one knows what pictaresqueness awaits
tho traveller there. The Rlgi, which for
weeks had been hidden in the clouds,
seemed TO unveil for our benefit We
had a1narvelous view from the top OF
tho mountain, and one which few tray
elers have the good fortune to enjoy.
"Good-Luck" was also our companion
on our return trip to Germany.
We are now all at Wiesbaden. My
two sisters are at the same boarding
school, and my rooms are but few
squares distant.
A great many English and Americans
ore living. here, aud ! expect to spend
;gery pleasant winter. There is certain
.ly no lack In the variety OF entertain
| ments offered, but above all others, the
winter concerts, and grand opera are ex-
pected to be very fine. The climate
here is much colder than at home, aud
the gardens have already been robbed
OF ali flowers. Jack Frost has destroyed
all tender plants which were lett to his
mercy.
No doubt the Attenheim grounds are
still in their full autumn glory. have
often wished for a glimpse Of them, in
spite OF the many beautiful sights en-
Joy here. Hoping you are all well, and
that will soon receive some Attenheim
items, l am, sincerely yours,
ANNA RRYMASN.
