A Great Spectacle.

"In the Andes, haita thog..and feet
higher than Pixies peak, is to be found
the Peruvian Garden of the Gods, ad-
mired by every traveller fortunate
enough to visit it," writes William V.
Afford, F. r. G. S., in the Century.
st is locally called the Rock forest,
though in no sense Of the word is it q
forest. 1t simply resembles n when
viewed at a distance of ten miles.
The traveller may be forgiven the er-
ror of thinking it a forest as he sees
it for the first time and forgets that
he is no longer where trees grow, but
within half an hours ride of the high
est city in the world, Cerro de Pasco,
perched, like a condor, on the high
peaks of the Andes.
THE Garden of the Gods in Colora-
do boasts of a few spectacular rocks.
But they are few in number, and the
area which they is not large.
The Andean garden covers nearly 100
times the ground and in beauty and
interest surpasses its northern coun-
terpart in the same ratio"
