We took u train from Florence and
nothing of importance happened till
we were nearly to Geneva. The train
was going along smoothly, wher all

were certainly surprised, for there

large groves of chestnut and walnut
trees; higher up the trees are maple
and beech, and still higher the trees
are tiny shrubs.

We took a train on the st Gothard
Railway. There were beautiful sum

pretty lakes near the summer re-

The train Just seemed to creep
along, but they used the motto "Slow

ciers, and the snow melting so fast
made large streams. which furnished
a good deal of their power for manu-.

Every now and then we would
come to a hermit's hut There we
would see many interesting relics.
