The adjectives applied to Cinthla
Royce by her neighbors in the village
where she lived were not those used
to signify a loyable character; but IN
the country that had been her home IN
ejrlhood and young womanhood there
were old friends of the Royce family
who still told of a joyous, happy girl,
whose charming disposition was so
often held up as an example to way
wardly inclined daughters that afore-
said daughters sometimes longed TO
choke Cinthia's sweetness down her
own throat.

The idea that grief was concealed

explained.

Limestone Caves in
Australia Wonderful

What are perhaps the most mar
velously beautiful limestone caverns in
the world have recently been discoV-
cred In that part of Western Australia
lying In its southwest corner, between
Capes Leuwin and Naturaliste. Many
years ago cavernS were discovered in
the southern part of the promotory of
which the aforesaid capes are the ex-
treme north and south points: but as
they lay adjacent to the large timber
station of Karridale they were natur-
ally visited by many of the several
hundred men employed in their vicin-
lty and their beauties almost entirely
destroyed; they simply remain now as
wrecks, showing few traces of their
former grandeur. Some eight years
ago. however, a Mr.. Edward Dawson,
settler in the neighborhood, was out
with companion when he noticed a
peculiar cavity in the ground near
Cape Naturaliste. He procured a rope
and, on lowering himself down, the
full beauty of the famous Yallingup
Cave was revealed. Shortly afterward
Messrs. j. Conolly and Frederick Bus
sell, exploring some twenty miles far
ther to the south, discovered the
equally beautiful caves now known as
the Mammoth, the Lake, the Black
Bay Hollow, Calgardup, Wallcliff, Col
gotha, and others.
