dialogue. The first scene is street cor

Feeding Ragamumns.

Tho Rev. G. l.. Dodgson, better
known by readers of alice in Wonder
land" as Lewis Carroll, was a lovable
man, who delighted to do good in a
quiet way. In his Life and Letters"
the following story is told by one of
his child-friends:
My sister and I were spending a day
Of delightful sightseeing in town with
him. We were both children, and were
much interested when he took us into
an American shop where the cakes for
sale were cooked by a very rapid proc
ess before your eyes, and handed to
you straight from the cooks hands.
AS the preparation of them could
easily be seer from the outside the
window, a small crowd of ragamuffins
naturally assembled there, and / we'll
remember Mr.. bod sons plIlng up sew
en- Of the cakes on one arm, taking
them out and doing them round to
the seven hungry little youngsters.
The simple kindness Of the act i'm
pressed it's charm on his child-friends
inside the shop as much as On his
little stranger friends outside.

seen racing on to mingle their waters
with the salt waves of the sound. Their
glacier sources shine like diamonds
when the sur is bright.
In 1883 Professor Zittel,a well-known
German geologist, and Professor James
Bryce, member of parliament, and au-
thor of the American Common
wealth, made a report on the scenery
of Mount Rainier. Among other things
they said:
"The scenery of Mount Rainier is of
rare and varied beauty. The peak it
self is as noble a mountain as we have
ever seen in it's lines and structures.
We have seen nothing more beautiful
in Switzerland and Tyrol, in Norway
or the Pyrenees, than the Carbon river
glacier and the great Puyallup gla-
ciers; indeed, the ice of the latter is
unusually pure and the ~crevasses I'M
usually fine. The combination of ice
scenery with woodland scenery of the
grandest type is to be found nowhere
in the old world, unless it be in the
Himalayas, and, so far as we know,
uOWuSI6 else Ou IuS n uCl lCdA COhIA-
nent."
There are several routes to the sum-
nit, but the only one that has ever
proved practical is known as the Para
disc valley route. All of the more in
teresting features of the great oun
tain and the park that surrounds it car
be seen from this road and it will
probably be the only n used this
summer.
The start under present arrange
ments is made by stage from Tacoma.
For two days the prospective mountain
climber travels rapidly over a good
road through one of the Washington
forests of gigantic trees to Longmire
| Springs. Timber line is then but six
miles away, over a plain trail. The
distance can be covered by pack horses
or by walking.

Our NEW NATIONAL PARK.

Paradise Park, which Is a place OF
beauty beyond description, has been
named by unframed mountain climb
ers. Here muscles are hardened by
climbing over the snow fields and gla-
ciers and one becomes generally ac-
customed to the high altitude. Here
also guides are to be obtained, for it Is
not safe to attempt the ascent without
an experienced escort. That strang-
ers have gone to the top of the noun
tain and returned in safety is no proof
that others can do the same. The ele-
ments at this high altitude are very
uncertain and a storm is likely to blow
UP at any time. Then the danger is
very great for even those who know
the mountain thoroughly.
To any one except a hardy noun
taineer the ascent requires more than
ordinary strength. This is especially
true in the case of women, and non of
the gentler sex should attempt the
Journey without at least a months
training by taking long walks until
twenty miles or more can be covered
without fatigue.
From Paradise Park the climb COM
mences. Two full days are usually re-
quired for the ascent, although it has
been made by small parties in much
less time. Camp should be broken
very early in the morning, and with the
necessary baggage strapped On pack
animals the journey is slowly contin-
ued until Camp Muir is reached.
The night is spent at this point, and
a second start is made at 4 a. m. on
the following day, in order to pass
Gibraltar Rock before the sun begins
to loosen rocks On the side of the
mountain. The route continues past q
spur which divides the Nisqually and
Cowlitz glaciers. and on to the famous
