A special telegram had been ount to have
this breakfast all ready for me, and I ex-¦ pected to find it already smoking hot an the table.
Little did I know at that time the inner workings of the Orients mind. It was mid of old time of a certain Pharaoh, I koli ve, "Elis atrength is to sit still," and never before did the words that good old test wak into me an deeply as on this! occasion.

They give you only small plaintain or bananas; occasionally you get a good manga, much more rarely oranges or apples. Surely there should good market for Australian and Tantanian fruit among, at any rate, the white people of India.

Strengthened and refreshed for the journey through the wonderful bistoric region of the Karnatik, I took my seat in the little narrow-gange carriage, and we were soon leaving the red-roofed ention- mille of Tation in, and were gliding at a

The presence of Viceroy Yuan Shih kai in Peking now, is stated to bave been due to the initiative of their Majesties the us press Dowager and Emperor themselves. who sent a specist command to his Ex. cellency to come to the Palace without dolay.
