GREAT SOUTH AMERICAN LAKES.

Lake Titicaca is unique amongst the
waters Of the world. Its extent Is four
teen times that of the Lake OF Geneva
and the level of its surface is lz'o4o rect
above the sea. Along its eastern shore
runs the main Cord.llera, rising alott at
its southern end into the mighty mount
Sorata, whose broad expanding gIaclers
seem to lift themselves like silver from
the waves. The shores and ISLANDS OF
the lake were--who knows now long
ago?-the cradle of a remarkable CIVIL
ization. or even series OF clVlilZatlois'
