BY GARRETT P. sERVIss.

TINE vast sandy desert of the
Sahara covers an area two
thirds as great as the entire
United States! If all its offshoots.
together with the other deserts OF
Africa, are added. they exceed the
United States in extent
The Sahara is one of the real
wonders of the world. If it could
be redeemed, as we have redeemed
some of the tiny deserts in the
Far West, 1t would be able to sup
port 2OO,0O0OOO, and perhaps $780,
100000 inhabitants. At present it
contains about 100000, living on
it's GASES, where a little water is
found. That is as if the United
States had one inhabitant for each
miles. But experiments have shown
that in many places there is an
abundance of water deep beneath
the sandy covering of the Sahara.
How the Sahara got into its pres
ent condition is a problem not yet
satisfactorily solved It has been
a great. blasted waste since the
earliest recorded times.
No scenes that the earth presents
have ever had a greater effect upon
the Imagination of mankind than
those of the Sahara. And now that
civilized men have begun to ira
verse it in many directions. finding
out its secrets, testing its possible
future capabilities and making pho

TT was one hundred and twenty
years ago that the French peo-
pie, through their national
convention. declared their frater-
nifty with all nations who desired to
be free, and offered them their help
in the 81 uggle for liberty
With the exception of the dis
membermgnt OF the Roman empire,
no event in history has created the
interest and elected the attention
that has been called forth by the
French Revolution. Perhaps more
books have been written and more
discussion held about that revolu-
tion than about any other event in
the history Of the human race
Certainly nothing elise that ever
happened has evoked such deep
and world wide enthusiasm There
have been revolutions innumerable,
but no rising up of a people has
ever touched the great heart of
mankind Ike that which began
with the fall of the Bastile.

NJ. Epry, studying these things In
the Sahara, has very ingeniously
traced the course of the winds that
have made the ripples. The ripples
are always found on the slopes OF
the sand waves down which the
wind has passed obiquely. They
are the finger marks of the sirocco,
left on the surface of the grand
waves of sand which it has piled
up in its more furious moments.
But unchanging as the desert
seems. it nevertheless is as muta-
Bile as the sea itself. The waves of
sand are driven slowly forward by
successive winds, and their forms
are changed, so that if for us. look
ing over the broad surface of the
Sahara, years were but as seconds
of time, we should see it actually
fluctuating. rolling on in never
resting pillows, like the Atlantic in
a storm. Thus it is always burying
its past. The most remarkable 49,
amples Of the effect of the slow
rolling onward of waves of wind
driven sand have been found in the
deserts Of Asia, some of which now
extend over lands which centuries
ago We're thickly inhabited and
adorned with cities. Even extern
sive lakes have been filled up with
sand in this way. so that, at pres
ent, only the geologist can detect
their former location.

One Of the best Of these recent
photographs is reproduced above
Imagine those huge wind driven
waves Of sand stretching away for
HUNDREDS and even thousands. of
miles, only rarely broken by q little
oasis, with its CLEAN Of muddy wa
ter and its palm trees, and you may
form some conception of wha, the
Sahara really is. Then picture to
yourself Il fierce. hot wind sudden
ly rising, blowing with rapidly in
creasing violence, rolling and rip
ping the sands, and finally lifting
tons of them into the air, and
driving them forward in dense
clouds lnat hide the sun and
stide every living being that they
encounter, and you will have
idea Of what a Saharan simon"
or 'sand-storm," means. Then the
natives kneel upon the sand and
cover their heads with blankets.
While their camels the ships of the
desert" lie down ana place their
