Peru Land of Extremes.

From the Century.
Were l to be exiled and confined for
the rest of my life to one country. l
should choose Peru. Here is every alti-
tude.. every climate, every scene.
Coastal Peru is an Egypt. central Peru
a Tibet eastern Peru q kongo country.
The lifeless desert and the teeming
jungle. the hottest lowlands and the
bleakest highlands, heaven-ptercfng
peaks and rivers raging through can
yons-all are Of Peru. Here one meets
with the highest tillage, the highest
mines. the highest steamboat naviga-
ton. The crassest heathenism -four
ishes two days in the saddle from noble
cathedrals, and the bustling ports are
counterpoised by secluded inland towns
where the past lies miraculously pre-
served like the mummy of the saint in
a crypt. In the year 1000, when the
Tyrol and the Abruzzi, Dalmatia and
Carinthia, have lost their old world
character, travellers may be seeking
the towns hidden away in the Andes
Cajamarca, Huancavellca, Andahuayias
and Ayacucho for rare bits Of lustrous
medieval life untarnished by the breath
of modernism.
