THE women were talking about
babies-their size. weight, health and
so forth.
Why, when L was week Old said
the first woman. I was such a little

When the uptown car reached Spring

of where they We're standing. When

reply You go first
The man responsible for the sugges-

and settled down with a sigh Of relief.
The second man followed In a little
while two other passengers riding in
that seat got out, whereupon the other
two men left standing performed the
high stepping act, leaving the woman

sive beauty of snow-crowned Aeon
cagua, the enchanting Lake OF the In
cas-, and the gorge of the Soldiers
Leap are wont to speak slighkingly of
the Alps. The severe grandeur of
these lofty peaks towering thousands
of feet above the clouds, with their
rugged slopes shining with; all the
colors of the rainbow, iinpresses
everybody except the natives. In their
case, familiarity breeds contempt.
On the mule-track across the Cordil-
lera travellers between Argentina and
Chill pass within two hundred yards
of the 'Inca's Bridge" which IS, per-
haps, the most perfect natural bridge
across a torrent anywhere, in the
world. The native guides who conduct
travellers over the pass nevef suggest
turning aside for a few minutes to see
this marvel. Unless the traveller him
self suggests it, he misses ore of the
most wonderful sights in thh Andes.
There are guides who have been
crossing the pass constantly since
boyhood, and yet have never, seen the
Inca's Bridge They would hot walk
two hundred yards, of their own free
will, to see the finest scenery in the
world They are surfeited With it.
The Chilian guides, however, insist
on showing the foreign traveller the
gorge of "El Salto del Soldadp" ('The
Soldiers Leap"). They say.t that tie
place was named in honor os brave
Chilian soldier who, being pursued by
the enemy and having important de-
spatches, jumped across the gorge,
twenty-four feet wide, and ESCAPED,
leaving the chagrined pursuefs on the
other side.

provinces of Los Andes and E.
Iachlra. Indeed, If is as much more
troublesome than sea-sickness as that
complaint is worse than ordinary
nausea. When | was first attacked by
mountain sickness | felt as if | had
been sea-sick for a week on end; then
it seemed as if my reason were going,
and in the end | completely lost my
memory and became delirious, until |
was brought down to a low altitude"
Pure-blooded Indians are more or
less exempt from this complaint, but
all persons with white blood in their
veins are subject to it. In Venezuelan
expeditions it has been found that
men who are nine-tenths Indian and
only one-tenth white are just as sus-
ceptible as Americans or Englishmen.
1t is curious fact that men who are
immune from sea-sickness are usually
the first to be attacked by mountain
sickness. An old English sea captain
once accompanied the writer on a
journey TO the peak of one of the
mountains of La Victoria, in Venezu-
ella. 1t was mere pleasure jaunt, the
altitude being little over 5000 feet; but
the skipper had a violent attack of
mountain sickness before the summit
was reached.
The Andean explorer is we'll repaid
for all his toll and sufferings. The
wonderful beauty of the scenery alone
atones for much, and the country is
wonderfully interesting to the natural
ist and the student of native life and
customs. Nowhere, not even in the
Himalayas, is mountain scenery
grander than in some parts of the
Andes, especially in the Cordillera,
which divides Chill and Argentina.

The first party to conquer FL Misti
made an attempt to climb the neigh
boring peak of Chachani, about
10000 feet high, but failed through
an accident to one of their number.
Many others of the numerous An
dean peaks stretching from the 18th
mus of Panama 10 the Straits of Ma
gellan invite the adventurous climber
who yearns to plant his feet on virgin
ground. Several of them have never
been climbed; others have been con-
quered, az the most, only once or
twice, many years ago.
1t is no light task. The man who
wants to scale an Andean peak must
make up his mind to suffer the ex-
tremity of hardship. pain and danger
Snow blindness affects most climb
ers. 1t is an extremely acute inflam-
nation of the eyes, and makes the
strongest. Hardest men yell with
agony. The Indian tribes who live
among the various Andean ranges
suffer much from the complaint, and
they have a remedy which is far better
than any lotion the doctors can sug-
gest. They simply put raw flesh on
the inhamed eye, as prize-hghters use
beefsteakS. The remedy is an ancient
one, for Spanish-American writer.
Father Joseph de Acosta, who wrote
three centuries ago, mentions it.
"Comming one night" he says, in an
old English translation made in 1901,
Into a Tambo or lime, being much
afflicted with paine in mine eie5,
thinking they would fall out, the
which dooth commonly happen in

the paine ceased, and soone after went

doctors have yet found satisfactory
