<, two by two, and last three couples of 1 attendants. They went in front next ] to the high altar, which was decorated with palms, rhododendrons and light cd candles, the Virgin lowered over all. The men sat on one side, the ladies on the other, all inclosed in d
 railing. That poor bride and groom
 knelt for an hour during the elabor-
 ate ceremony. During the long cere-
 mony we had time to examine fhe
 church, The pulpit had fifty carved
 figures on it.
 We took in the great clock thor
 oughly, saw it strike the quarters,
 then twelve o'clock In one gallery death holds the gong. at the first
 quarter a youth walks out and
 strikes it, at the half hour a young
 man strikes the gong. at the 3-4 hour
 middle aged man strikes it. at the
 hour old age strikes, then Death
 strikes twelve, he has a horrible grin on his face. At this time in the gal
 lery above, the twelve apostles walk
 around the image of Christ and he
 raises his arm as if blessing them.

 We came back through the Black Forest-beautiful mountain scenery. had always imagined it level pine forest Most all of the trees were evergreen pine and fir, very dense
 growth, though not very tall trees. We went in the very heart of the
 Black Forest. up, up through the mountains over the watershed that divides, the Danube and the Rhine. We saw one little city, Friburg. three times. We went next to Lake Con- stance. 1t is very fine body of
 water, 2 1-2 miles long by 1-2
 miles wide. The scenery was not as picturesque as the Swiss lakes. but
 we found the town quite interesting.
 Many quaint old buildings. One the kaufhans. right on the Lake front
 was built in 1888. and we could we'll believe it. On the upper floor is large hall 50 feet long by 30 feet broad in which was the Great Council of Cardinals with regard to the Re- formation. Around this hall are pie lures representing the history of Con- stance, several of them give events ill the life of John Huss. His i'm prisonment, buring at the stake etc. We went in the Cathedral and sentence was passed upon him. We l went to the house from which he was taken prisoner On the outside is a l Caricature of him and some derisve verses and the date 1415. Near it
 was a good relief of Huss put up in 1878. Right back of the Huss house was the house where Jerome of Pra- sue was taken prisoner. We went to the spot where they were both burn ed: a long avenue of Lombariy pop
 lars leads up to it. On the spot is a large stone with John Huss, July 15. 1415."
 We left Constance at 1920 and in an hour were at Schauffhausen: We ! went from here to Nenhausen on electric car to See the Falls of the
 Rhine, the most beautiful falls in Central Europe. The fal! is not great
 about 60 feet but great quantity Of water forms three cascades. Large rocks iut out and add to the beauty
 We went around the wooded path where we got a fine view, sat down for some time and thoroughly enjoy ed the scene.
 We left Schauffhausen about 80 for Zurich, which we reached in time
 for dinner, thus making three towns in one day.
 We reached Zurich in the pouring
 rain. It is large commercial city,
 of Switzerland's extensive silk man.
