MACHU PICCHU, PERU, LOST CITY

The InCas using the word broadly,
showed an extraordinary liking for build
ing on spots where they had an unbroken
outlook over all the surrounding world
Lovers of nature, perhaps. though the
apparent complete indifference OF their
descendants to it's charms and moods
makes this dehatable. they were above
all practical fellows, moved less by esthet-
ic reasons than by an overwhelming dis

such views as that from the intihuatana

THE altitude of the city is put al $500
feet and that Of the river eco, yet it is
surprising how clearly, il hushed, the
roar of the river comes unhrokenly up
the 1000 sheer feet to the invulnerable
city. Utterly unpeopled. the visible world

DRINKING HOLLY.

Yerba Mate is South American
drink, used as n tea is used among us.
Long before the Spanish went to Para
quay the Indians of that country used
it, and after the advent of the Spanish,
taught them its use. Yerba means the
herb. The mate is Spanish for gourd.
The drink itself and the Gourd It Is
drunk from both appear in the name
in vogue. The mate came to Re used
in connection with the yerba because
it was a dried gourd in which the pull
verified leaves were stepped in boiling
water to prepare the drink. BY habit
the container began to imply the con-
tents. The plant is the South Ameri-
can holly, and is indigenous to the four
Brazilian states. Parana, Santa Cathari-
ma, Rio Grande du Sll and Matte Crosse,
and in the northern section or Argentina.
The plant is dried over fire, pull

drink by placing q small quantity of
the powdered leaves in a clean recep-
taCle, usually a clean, dried gourd. pour

allowed to steep a few minutes, little
