heavy over sweet fragrance has not only
more air but the various trees growing
near add their milder perfume. On
through the plantation which has the
stately musical name of "Jerusalem'
we soon arrive at the railroad station
and village Carrabasset, where consider
able is being done in manufacturing
lumber.
w Q are to make no stop until King
field is reached and we find the after
noon passing rapidly with so many
interesting views and novel experiences
One remarks upon the similarity be-
tween his part of the road and the long
distance of striking views on the way
from Bingham to The Forks of the
Kennebec. Hills with huge piles of
rock on our right and the river far be
low on the left Vhile the road has thai
surprising narrowness which as we
ascend or decend long hill makes ut
quite willing to be the only travellers III
sight. Kingfield brings no foreign idea
to our American trained habit of mind
for we know that the town honored our
first Governor when they were looking
for name. The village is beautiful and
full of life and vigor. From Kingheld
House, we enjoyed fine views and were
pleasantly and very comfortably cared
for at this enterprising hotel.
The morning of our third days va
cation finds rain still present but moi
falling steadily and we drive through
the village and ascend a hill to zee the old
King homestead which is fine well
preserved mansion and the view is very
charming. West New Portland is an
interesting village in noble town and
the orchards are indeed fine sight at
this season. One remarks upon the
loyalty of the residents to their town, il
is a good thing to hear and as we go on
it seems that it would be easy and
perfectly natural to be so. We are di-
rected to take new road or at least q
different road from that first intended
it leads through the Anson valley
Through the rain we gain new pictures
of farms and homes, coming at last to
the horseback range and we think of the
geologists who would like to see this
wonderful handiwork of nature. Al.
ready we are on familiar ground and
soon we shall be at home, surely for us
the best place in the world. But here let
us remember that of all the grand
beautiful views, pleasant domestic
pictures and charming happenings, it is
still only little journey in new large
world and let us be glad that it is SO.
1t makes the grand wonderful world so
much more real row that we have q few
new, bright, living pictures added to
those already gained. There is wondr-
Gus comfort in the thought of the world
being Gods own, and we His children,
who were created after the beautiful
world was prepared for us. Oh, the
world of nature is best enjoyed when it
is allowed to take it's own true place,
and shall we not in reverent wonder
say, "What is man that thou art mind
full of him?"
