Life In Crete.

Crete is Il land Of the past. 1t is q
land OF memories rather than of passing
events; a land whose period of activity
and Importance has passed, whose time
OF decay and torpor seems to have come.
To history it is the birthplace and tomb
of Zeus, the home of Minos, the thalas-
socrat, the scene of war and arnage,
the Venetian colonial seat. To Greece
it is the land Of memories sad and he
roic. To Turkey it is a thorn. In old
days it got the name of i'll measure.
Today it might be said to be scarcely
known, except as a country of home
life. It is properly an agricultural is
land. In its entire area there are not
more than six considerable towns, and
these the ruins of other days, the houses
old and fallen, gaunt hogs, starv-
Ing ours and hawks tenanting the
streets. ALI around are the mountains,
and every considerable town is by the
sea. On the cratered mountain tops and
in the rugged valleys the peasants till
the land and pasture their sheep and
goats. At night they sleep in the vii
lagos, and by day they are in their fields
of rye, millet and sunfowers. They
make but sorry agriculturists. Laziness
is the root of their vices, and the Gre
tans are lazy ne'er do wells. More than
half Of their days are holidays. which
they celebrate BY getting drunk. By &C.
