WHY TRAVEL ABROAD?
An American should Give His First
study TO His Home Land.

When Payne wrote There's M Place
Like Home" lie gave poetic expression
to the love he bore toward the ingle
nook more precious than temples or
palaces" hat flowers of rhetoric
could approach in power of assertion
these five little m~onosyllabic words,
There's No Place Like Home"-to
gainsay which were impossible!
1t is the great privilege of Americans
to be able without hyperbole to apply
them to travel, for what is there in any
part of the habitable globe more
fraught with interest, instruction, edu-
cation, refreshment of mind and body
and uplifting Of soul than nature has
provided, with hand so lavish, for the
delectation of those having the good
fortune to dwell in this goodly land?
Would he see a Riviera? We have
several on the shores of the azure wa
tiers both of the gulf and the Pacific.
far distancing that laved by the Med
i~terranean.
Does he pine for snow capped noun
tains? Let him repair to the plains
whence Pixies Peak, Mount Logan and
our other great elevations rear their
hoary SUBMITS into cloudland.
Would he witness a majestic cata-
ract? There is but one without a rival,
the imperial Niagara-in the chain of
our great lakes, most turbulent of
links.
Neither Nile, Niger nor Ganges, great
rivers though they are, are comparable
to our own Mississippi, we'll named
'"The Father of Waters" Our peerless
Hudson eXcels in picturesque effects
the Wanted Rhine.
What of the beauties Of the Golden
Gate, on whose shores sits enthroned
Queenly San Francisco, pronounced
peerless among cities by a much trav-
eled European prince of imperial
blood?
Where Is there, even in miniature,
anything to vie with that earthly para
disc, the valley of the Yosemite; what
to compare with the deep and rugged
gorge through which passes to the sea
the impetuous Colorado river?
The Mammoth Cave of Kentucky, one
Of the worlds wonders, is as yet but
partially explored.
Why, then, travel abroad, while all
these and vastly more than can be
enumerated remain unseen at home?
Are not ALBANIA and Pharpar, rivers
Of Damascus, better than all the waters
of Israeli" said Naaman the Syrian of
old when ordered by the prophet to
betake himself to the Jordan for heal
ing. Who can help admiring his pride
Of country and robust patriotism?
Most worthy are they of emulation.
Be it for health or recreation, there
have at home.-Travel.

his favorite topic. Arriving at the sta
ton, he looked for the expected convey
ance, but found none. After all the
other passengers had disappeared a
man stepped up and said, Maybe
you're Sir Robert Ball?" On receiving
an affirmative reply the man hastily
apologized, saying, Sure, your honor,
I'm sorry 1 kept you waiting, but l was
tould to look for an intellectual gintle-
man" Sir Robert thought that under
the circumstances it would be better
not to inquire what was the mans idea
Of intellectually.

A well known artist recently received
q letter from a chap who has regularly
made it a practice to borrow money
of him. In this letter the chap who is
always in financial difficulties surpris-
ed his correspondent by saying:
This time l have decided to reverse
the usual order of things, and, instead
of borrowing from you, l inclOse here
with $50, which l am going to ask that
you will lay aside for me for a rainy
day"
But the artist couldn't find any re-
mittance in the letter. He searched for
it on the floor, under the table-in fact,
everywhere he thought he might have
dropped it. Then quite accidentally he
turned over the sheet on which the let
ter was written and discovered this
postscript:
1--WE just looked out of the window
and find it's raining like the very
