 We spent that night at Cornimont at quaint inn, with huge canopies over the beds, and lying under the feather bed" which is used in most European countries, and not in Germany alone, although in this, as In other facts, probably Germany has to take the greater share of jokes pertaining to this way of bed-covering We found also the inevitable high bolster. These feather bed" coverings are always about three-fourths of the length of the person, and it often becomes a question whether we shall leave the toes or the shoulders unprotected by it, for the re- mainder of the bed clothing is scanty. The bolster we either throw across the room as needless, or we put 1t at the foot of the bed, thus piecing out the feather bed.

Freiburg, Baden, July [, 1904, To the Editor of the Journal and Cour-
 fer:
 The Alps, with their majestic snow capped summits, deep valleys, glaciers and rushing mountain torrents, and the mountains of the Black Forest, with their deep green, heavy foliage and finely kept paths, making all points ac- cessible, have their many admirers, but few tourists have found their way through the Vosges Mountains, which form the boundary between France and Germany, and are a little off the main line of travel.
 While these mountains have not the majesty of the Alps, nor the mysterious shade of the Black Forest Mountains still with their delicate green foliage, sloping sides and beautiful valleys, with the characteristic blue sky above, they well deserve the name, Blue AL satian Mountains" given to them in song and poetry.
 A unique feature is the plateau like summit, where one may walk for miles and miles upon a level path, looking down upon pillows of mountains and calm valleys on either side, the one side being French territory, the other Ger man, for the boundary line extends exactly along this summit for a long distance.
 The German country at the base is beautiful Alsace, which has been so long a bone of contention" between France and Germany. Even now, un- der German control, it is a wellknOwn fact that France would gladly have ii back again, and it is even hinted that one reason for Germanys strong army is that it may keep France in awe of its power. Certain 1t is that the Ger mans, with~their-4 love of open-air life and extreme love of nature, have taught the Alsatians to treasure the Vosges Mountains, and ''Vosges Clubs have been formed in the larger cities oi Alsace, the object of which is to oper up paths to the summits, thus inducing parties to take long excursions. These excursions are usually taken twice a month, and one sometimes meets clubs of twenty-five or thirty persons in the restaurants or along the roads.
 The object, then, of our little walk ing trip, was to take what the Germans call a "Kamm Wandering" (ridgt wandering), a walk along the higt boundary line, also to see little oi French country life, and to contrast il with peasant life of the German Aisa. tians While the two nations have tc some extent intermixed, still one side is typicaIiy French.
 So our happy little party took the train from FreIburg, by way of Null. heim to Mulhausen, the largest city oi Southern or Upper Alsace, and thence to the tiny village of serven, in the Dollerthal, through which valley we passed, our object being to ascend tht Walscher Belchen (foreign Belchen), or as the French call it, Ballon q Alsace l1aAS ,aaet CTS eG 0Ss feet) above sea level one of the highest peaks of the Vosges and, we may say, marking the south western corner of Germany.

wELLNlGH THE HUNDRED BALES
Receipts in AmerIcus Yesterday Very
Good.

Just as expected, the new cotton
bales came numerously to Americus
Yesterday, the hundred bale mark be-
ing approach ed very closely. The ex-
act number weighed at the several
warehouses yesterday was 6s, making
the total number of new bales weighed
here to date more than $50. Bat for
the continuous rains OF the past week,
which delayed picking greatly, yester-
days receipts alone would have goI
near the $50 mark, as there is great
deal OF open cotton on every farm in
this section. The bales brought in yes
terday were sold at ten cents and above,
according to grade, and considerable
amount of new ''cotton money" was
thus put IN circulation in Americus.
And crowd was here to spend it. ALI
day the stores were filled with pur.
chssers, while the crowded streets gave
Americus a falltime appearance incI-
dent to the busy cotton season.
