TRAVELLING IN PERSIA.
It Means Much Hard Work and
Great Discomfort.
The Shah's Empire Is Entirely Without
Railways, Steamboats, or Good Roads
How Wealthy Women Journey
from Place to Place.
lSnecfal 1snahnn persial Letter. ]


1t is difficult for the average Amer
lean to imagine a whole big country en-
tirely devoid Of railroads, steamers and
all other means of locomotion save
those which were already in vogue in
Biblical days, /. G., on foot or on the
back of horse. mule. donkey or camel
That, however, is still the actual condi-
ton of things in Persia, as in some
other oriental countries. Added to this
is the further difficulty Of the absence
Of good roads, navigable rivers, Of
bridges, etc., so that travelling in Per-
sia is indeed, not a pleasure, but a
piece Of very hard work. 1t may be
hard to believe but it is an absolute
fact that the roads--or what goes by
that name-in the Persia Of to-day are,
for the greater part, the same which
were trodden by the armed hosts Of
Cyrus, Of Darius Ilystaspis, of Chosroes
and other great conquerors of ancient
times, and even the route taken by
Zenophon in his return to Greece may,
in part. be followed to this day by trav-
elers similarly situated days journey
after days journey You can walk over
the same ground which he describes In
