 We can tell If he never had heard of Chicago. One day a big catalogue came
 through the mail That told of a wonderful heater; The figures were tempting, Tom
 swallowed the tale, Says he, "Our merchants a

 he'll relent I'll order a stove from Chicago So he drove to the village and entered the store, With an air that was lofty and

 out with a frown, And sent off a check to Chicago. He bragged to his neignbors and
 they in a Jrice, Sent away for whatever they
 needed: They often were stuck, but they
 got a low price, Which, of course, was the one
 thlng they needed. Their merchant soon failed and sold
 out his store, And this was the notice he left OH
 his door "Goue to look for job in
 Chicago" Toms mail order stove didnt work
 very long, But no one in town could repair
 it; At last he was forced tc admit he was wrong, His neighbors weren't slow to
 declare it. The drummers stopped corning and
 they closed the hotel. Twas surprising how quickly the

 weaker, Till he made up his mimi to get
 out of the place And go on jaunt "s home

CHILDREN KEPT.
OFF The STREETS
NOVEL METHOD BY WHICH
PLEAsURABLE EVENINGS ARE
ASSURED-WORRlED PARENTS
SHOULD READ AND PROFIT BY
THIS. d

The greatest problem of parents in
cities is to keep children off the
streets, by making the attractions of
| home so alluring hat the youngster
will prefer to stay indoors rather
than seek enjoyment outside.
Every growing child requires good,
healthy amusement, and plenty OF 1t.
A liberal share of this should be sup
piled outdoors, in vigorous play and
exercise; but there must also be in
ducements at home which will prevent
the little ones from feeling that en-
joyments and pastimes are only to be
had outside.
Books are read and laid aside. After
the first reading the interest is gone.
The same is true of ordinary toys.
Most toys lack the features Of variety,
and the child quickly tires of them.
The Jumbo twenty-act circus fills
the gap. It is the one perpetual and
varied amusement and funmaker. 1t
is always new-the variations always
surprisingly different. The child goes
back to it day after day with renewed
interest. It's twenty beautifully col
ored cut-out groups Of animals n
circus acts provide both fun and in
struction. Children quickly become
familiar with the wild animals of hill.
plain and jungle during these hours Of
indoor amusement. The Jumbo circus
provides brain exercise and ingenuity
as well as merriment. Above all, a
circus interests children more than
anything one could provide them, so
that the amusement and instruction
come i'll the most acceptable form.
1t is for these various reasons that
The Forum and Republican decided to
pass out the Jumbo circus to boys,
girls and. grownups of this city, on
terms which place it within the reach
Of all.

Africa. Mount Kenia is a mile under
the top of Aconcagua, and Kilimanjaro
is 5000 feet lower. Kilimanjaro and
Chimborazo are of about the same
height, and if you could have wire
communicate with one another on the
same plane of air.
And this reminds me that we are now
sending wireless messages right over
the Andes. Peru has a wireless sta
tion on one of her foothills which is
farther below the tops of the noun
tains than the height of Pixies Peak.
Nevertheless, they have sent messages
right over the range and have had them
received by wireless stations in Rio de
Janeiro, Notwithstanding the whole
continent lies between. Rio de Janeiro is
on the level of the sea. Those messages
climbed up over $1,000 feet and then
slid down to sea level, travelling
distance longer than from Boston to
the Great Salt lake. The highest of the
HimaIayas is Mount Everest. 1t meas
ures $4,000 feet. If you could put
Mount Washington on top of Aconcagua
it would just about equal the height
of Mount Everest, the highest noun
tain of the world. Mount Everest is
over twice as high as Pixies Peak or
Mount Shasta. 1t is twice as high as
Fujiyama and 1900 feet higher than
Mount Ararat, on which Noah dropped
the ark.
Our biggest mountain is Mount Nc
Kinley, in Alaska. It corresponds with
Chimborazo, and is less in height than
Sorata and Illimani, which are each
21,000 feet.
All of these big South American
mountains are capped with perpetual
snow. Even those of Ecuador, which
lie on the equator. have ice all the
year round. There are glaciers almost
everywhere, and you can go by the
railroad to within stones throw of
them in Peru and see them hanging

The most wonderful lake upon earth

mountains you would drop on into

The fauna of the high Andes is in

are especially so. 1 never grew tired
of studying the llamas, alpacas, vi
cunas and guanacuas. They all be-
long to one family whose home is the
high Andes. The llama is the beast Of
burden. 1t is numbered by millions
and it carries the most of the freight
of the highlands. The alpaca is Of
the same shape. only smaller. It's wool
is among the finest, softest and silk
lest known to the world. Alpacas are
kept in great flocks, watched by
shepherds and cared for as We care
for sheep. They are clipped once In
two years, when each should yield
about five pounds of long wool. The
animals are quiet and easily handled

Now the lava Is in millions of frag-

The rocks of the Andes are as pic
turesque as those of the Colorado can
yon or the Yellowstone Park. Now
they are black, and now white as snow.
Here they are composed of old red
sandstone and there they are ivory,
while further on they may be as yell
low as gold. They have every forma-
tion known to man. There are great
forts without number. there are spires
which reach to the sky. and pinnacles
fit for the pulpits of gods.
The life of the Andes Is unlike that
of any other region on earth. This is
SO of the plant and animal world. The
semi-arid plains of the highlands have
a vegetation like moss, there are
plateaus are as barren of trees as the
Sahara. Still they grow potatoes and
corn. barley and quinua and other crops
the names of which ] do not know.
The people are different. There have
never been any Indians like the Incas
and there are none like their descen-
dants today. They have their own GUS
toms and traditions and folk lore ready
for the scientist of the future. / might
fill a page of this newspaper with
stories of strange superstitions. I
could tell you of the gods and devils
of the high Andes and of fairies and
witches. Last night l learned how the
Aymara believe that the flesh and blood
of a certain lizard will give one per-
petual youth. 1t will cure all sorts
of diseases and even mend broken
bones. AS the story goes, the Indian
kills the lizard and wraps it round the
fracture and the break becomes we'll.
