REAL ROOF OF THE WORLD
Magritude of the HimaIayas in Num-
Der Altitude, immensely and
Inaccessibility.

The geological survey Of India has
lust published four large pamphlets
giving a summary Of the geographical
information concerning the Himalayas
that has been accommodating for a century
since the first survey party was sent
out among the mountains in 1907. These
volumes are written for the general pub
lie and the results are presented In a
popular manner.
The first impression one gets from
them is that the Himalayas so far -
coed every other mountain system IN
the world in everything that makes the
greatness of mountains that they stahd
in a class by themselves.
Though these mighty ranges have
been included in the survey scheme OF
British India for a century, a great
many Of their lofty peaks are not yet
mapped and there are many hundreds
Of SUBMITS whose height is not yet
known. But of the peaks that have
been measured there are seventy-fiVe
whose height exceeds $4,000 feet.
1t is certain that there is no mountain
of this height in North America, and II
there is so lofty a summit In South
America the fact is yet to be shown
Each of these ~seventy-five mountains is
nearly or more than two miles higher
than the loftiest eminence of Europe and
stands four-fifths of a mile or more
above the highest point in Africa.
The geological survey catalogues these
seventy-five principal peaks in fiVe
classes in order of magnitude. The peaks
of the first magnitude exceeding 2S'OOO
feet in height, include only Mount Ever
est and Kinchinjunga l.; peaks OF the
second magnitude, between $4,000 and
40 aAn 80 49,. TyFA.hNp frp Ga and
Makala; third magnitude. between
26. 600 and p, 900, eleven mountains;
fourth magnitude, between $4,000 and
26, 900, thirty-two mountains, and fifth
magnitude, between $4,000 and $4,000,
twenty-eight mountains.
Thus far SS7 mountains have been
measured whose height is 10000 feet
or more. 1t is estimated. according to
the law Of probability, based upon the
work already done, that there are
probably 1903 mountains in the Hima-
layas that are 5000 feet or more in
height.
There are besides many hundreds OF
prominent, but lower SUBMITS. Very
few of these mountains have native
names and the question arises how as
the mapping of the Himaiayas pro-
crosses, shall this vast array of summit
be designated.
The survey says that the most isolated
and probably the most imposing peal
in all Asia is one whose name few per
sons have ever heard. 1t is Manga Par
bat. standing on the western side of the
Indus valley and rising to a height OF
26,62O feet.

last book is the. best of the three. The
final struggle for Margaret's hand be-

furnishes the theme. Though the outcome
Of the struggle is in doubt until almost
the last page, there is no resisting the

Incidentally, the fight between Logotheti
and Van Torp involves a story of a won

pillage and some Of the very strange re-
suits thereof. AS might be expected, the
book is a sheer delight to those who APP

WHY JOHNSON CRIED

"There's an End to All Good Things

Wept.
When Nat johnson got back from the
Maine woods last summer, he told his
friends that for the first time since he
was child he sat down and cried.
AS he put it, "There l was way off In
