In an old book published n Paris I'M

account of the way in which Lady

English traveller, took possession on
the house at Djoun, where eventually
she made her permanent home
She was pleased with the house and
it's surrounding gardens, and accepted
an invitation to dinner. AS she sat at

merchant, he said to her that If she
liked the place, he should be glad II
she would stay the night When she
said that she liked it SO much that
she would stay there the rest of her
days, he took it as a polite figure of
speech; but fortnight later, as she
still prolonged her visit, he suggested
that Europe might be expecting her

Found in a Glacier.

Sir Martin Conway has recently told
this story OF finding lost ak in the
Alps: Znrbiggen, one of the cele-
brated mountain climbers Of the
world, in scaling peak of Les An
glaises, near Chamounix, accidentally
let his AK fall near the summit of the
peak. It fell some thousands OF feet.
In the normal course of things 1t was
buried in snow and swallowed up in
the glacier, being covered deeper and
deeper each year, and at the same
time being carried slowly downward
as the ice flowed Oh Seven OF eight
years afterward Hon C. G. Bruce and
Harkbir, a Sepoy CHIEF, in descending
a peak of the Alps just as night was
falling, and great crevasse barred
the way, being unable to find the
bridge over it, cut a path down to
to bottom, where HaTkbir stepped on
an ak which had M. T. Zurbiggen's mi
tials on the handle. There could be
no mistake as to the identity Of the
ak, as Harkbir had seen it and used
it before.
