People are always asking ma curtain of cloud. which is the funer harbour, Rio or Sydney, and I generally ansWOF "Table Bay." For I think that though Rio is the most beautiful and Sydney the prettiest, Cape Town, with its open sweep of Table Bay and the mighty mountain above it, strikes one as the finest.

Behind the city of Cape Town rises a great granite wall or moun tain some 4,000 feet in height, quite fiat along the top. This is Table Mountain.
On the left of it as seen from Table Bay, there stands a peak which looks as though it had been broken off from it by some giant's hand. This is called the Devil's
Peak.
