One of tho curiols sights of the island is
the cemetery on All Saints night; every
grave is brilliantly illuminated with candles,
thousands being used. AS the cemetery is
on a hillsope the sight is weiredly pic
turesque. The fire department of the island,
like many of it's other characteristic sights,
is like caricature of American appliances,
the apparatus looking, as Mrs, Smith said,
like big wash boilers on wheelbarrows.
Gaudaloupe, like the Hawaiian islands, has
escaped the usual tropical curse Of deadly
snakes, although why this should be no one
seems to know. ,. 4 r. - --1-
The chief industries of the island are sugar
cane and coffee raising, and the town of
Point-a-Pitre has one of the largest sugar
factories in the world. Unlike Martinique,
most Of Guadeloupe is under cultivation, the
tangle Of tropical vegetation being confined
to the roadsides, small tracts, and the noun
tain slopes. The luxuriance of the vegeta-
ton makes very beautiful the surroundings
of the plantation homes and the mountain
cottages where the tangles Of trees, vines
and plants are permitted to grow.

head and this custom develops fine figures
and a graceful carriage. Mrs. Smith
greatly struck with the appearance of the
black and brown women of the island.
The domestic arrangements were much like
living perpetually in fimsy summer cottage.
The houses have window SASH glazed win
dows being unknown. The windows are wide
to admit all the air possible, and they also
admit sWaTms of mosquitoes. There are no
flies. No attempt is made to screen the houses
but all the beds are screened. The windows
are provided with heavy wooden shutters for
use during the hurricane season-almost the
only time they ever closed.
All cooking is done with charcoal; the
houses have no chimneys and no provision for
fire. Sea food. is used generally and is de-
licious, while the meat obtainabe is of infe-
ror quality. Among the novelties are the
conch, the shellfsh inhabiting the big pink
lined shells so frequently used for ornament.
These are of considerable size and are much
appreciated tidbit for visitors. Another novel
and delicate dish is salad made from the
blossom OF the royal palm. This is the tallest
known species of the palm. 1t has a slender
bole, with crown of leaves at the top which
conceals q single large blossom. The removal
OF this blossom kills the tree so every salad
represents the destruction of a splendid tree

the washerwoman's corpse was borne through
