House Built in Waterfall

In the deep shade of the wooded
cliffs beneath the Pizzo di Torno, lies
a villa. This is the Villa Pliniana,
built in 1870 by the Count Anguissola
OF Piacenza, and now the property of
the Trotti family of Milan.
The place takes its name from an
intermittent spring in the court,
which is supposed to be the one de-
scribed by Pliny in one of his letters,
and it is further celebrated as being
the coolest villa on Como.
1t lies on small bay on the east
side of the lake, and faces due north,
so that, while the villas Of Cernobbio
are bathed in sunlight, a deep green
shade envelops it.
The house stands on a narrow
ledge, its foundations projecting into
the lake, and its back built against
the almost vertical wooded cliff.
which protects it from the southern
sun.
Down this cliff pours a foaming
mountain torrent from the Val di Ca
lore, just beneath the peak of Torno.

The Girard hotel of Brownsville,
the Oldest hotel in the United States
west of the Allegheny mountains, and
which has been in continuous service
furnishing entertainment for man and
beast for over 100 years, was sold by
the sheriff of Fayette county recent
ly to satisfy a mortgage.
While not the first hotel built this
side of the Alleghenies, the Girard is
without doubt the oldest in point of
service. 1t was built in 1900, and just
four years ago this summer celebrated
the centennial of its establishment.
In the more than century that has
passed since it was first erected the
hotel has been In constant service.
1t has changed hands frequently, but
has always been a faVorite place for
travellers to stop.
In the old days of the National Pike
1t was q famous hostelry. Brownsville
was then the head of navigation on

route from Washington and Baltimore
