pleasantly capering stream which trips ever so lightly down its rickety course, incessantly singing in a whisper, and seems very much inclined to play about this particular spot for ever. And that longing to remain is a very natural one, for this little corner is a half-hidden nature charm. There are many more on this island of ours, yet they are shyly obscured and have to be very carefully woood. But I am glad that an accidental walk gave me this little waterfall and its
influences.
Half-walking and half slipping my way down the winding pathway to Pokfulum, imagining the history of a simple stone cross which I had just passed, the rustic picture which was opened up after a sharp angle in the path brought me to a stand still. Just at that moment the sun had Altered through the trees and its rays seemed to be dancing nonchalantly on everything, my material existence no doubt having passed unnoticed. It is a very secluded corner just here, and Nature, evidently thinking kuman intrusion impossible, was playing all its charms. Aready at once suggested itself, and I glanced furtively around for Pan The sprightly imp must have been near, but the ignored me altogether, There were quivering patches of gold and silver every where, the trees were lisping a sun-languid air, and birds were carolling to a blue and silver sky from branches which were cloaked in a sun rist. There was rustling nature music in the air. Then, above the soft whispering of trees and the sweet snatches of bird songs the musical tinkling of gontly falling water reached me. looked around languidly, half-dazed with the luxury of the soone, and there was the waterfall playing coyly with many sun rays. Though quite gently kissed by its brilliant companions, the shy fall blushed; but its emotion was beautiful to look upon.
First it was gold, gold mingled with sparkling gems which formed into fairy-grotto tapestries on rocks of silver. The sun was doing its work nobly. Then, when the coquettish rays endeavoured to arouse a pretty jealousy by rushing to embrace the green and gold foliage which embroiders the waterfall's play-ground, it would sulk quickly into silver. then green and frothy white, look quite gloomy, tinkle out a sharp regret, and weep fretfully,

rays would rush wildly in and out of the trees and then sweep down to the stream again, which would at once regain its brillianco. So the fun was continued, and I was entertained with pictures which artists can only vainly attempt to main tain on a canvas-simply because they

In the course of a long review of the siege of Tsingtau, Captain Persius, the wal-known naval correspondent of the Berliner Tageblatt, says:
Now that the gigantic battle has reach- ed its close it is clear that the task of our energies has not been an easy one. Tsing La has been defended far longer than any one thought possible.
The Japanese have assisted the English in destroying the most brilliant work of German colonisation, England will reap the harvest sown by her short-sighted Government in n time not so far distant. Germany has lost Kinochau for the present, but not for ever.".
