BLACK & BROWN LEATHERS,

At a distance of abrut sievat hours drive from Nahobi. A wonderful region has been dis-i covered possessing all the attrào tions of a winter sports resort. As ie gouerally known, the climate on the equator is very similar to that of an English summer, and the idea of vast expauses of tropi est snowäsida in that district is somewhat unique. The surface: of those snowfields is always excellent for ski-ing and tobog ganning. The altitude is between 15 000 and 16.000 feet, and the last 20 miles of the road winds up by easy gradients through prim. eval fureats of great beauty, and then across open moorlands car peted with brackon, heather, and 7/7

for all occasions.
