She is very easy-going and largely tolerant. Next to her animal spirits this Indulgent temper We feel at ease in her presence; there is no necessity to put one’s best foot forward; intellectually an morally we can keep on our slippers and relax the back- bone of our principles. Her indulgence does not spring from the charity that “know- eth no evil, nor from the cynicism that believes in evil only, but from her knowledge not profound or subtle, but such as itis. itis varied and true. It has the advan- age of being taken from nature; it is not sec- ond-hand, nor derived from books or hear-say.

And nobody in this region seems to work any but women and dogs. The “harvest hands, as they are called at home,were, with the fewest exceptions,women. They. were working like oxen. Inshape they are short and wide out. Centuries of carrying heavy burdens upon their heads and shoulders have stunted their height and broadened them out. This minute—5:30 in the morning—at Cologne, I hear the measured tramp of soldiers in the street outside. I look out. A squad of good-sized, well-formed oung soldiers are passing with a lieutenant. hey hold their heads up if! a spirited way and march along limber and glastic. Immediately behind them follow three .fawny, squatty wo- men, carrying upon their headsioads which look awful. Itis enough to crush their skulls in one would think. The picture telis the whole story of life among the lower ciasses in this country. It is a barbarism as compiete as reigns among the Indian savages of America, where the squaws do the drudgery and the men fight and hunt. Men in uniform fairly swarm. ‘They waddle about the country railway sta- tions incaps green, white, blue and black—fat, lazy-looking fellows—while out in the adjoining fields women lug and tug at the bundles of hay and grain, and bend their backs tn the turnip flelds plying heavy hoes, horny-handed and stiff, with weary, weather-beaten, seamed, stupid faces. It is not an agreeable sight or an encouraging one for the future progress of one ot the most civilized nations In the world. Everywhere are soldiers, soldiers, soldiers, marching, drilling, or standing sentinel. I told you of those we saw before 6 o'clock this morn- ing. At 7 we went out tolook at some sort of ancient rubbish, and a splendid cavalry com- pany passed us, fully 100 strong. Horse and rider seemed all one piece, and the animal's feet seemed to move by clock-work, so perfectly trained were they. It was a fine sight. But the most magnificently disciplined standing army in the world is maintained at a cost which cannot fail to tell on those people in the years to come. The men are drawn off to fight, and the women do the men’s work. At this day in Germany women blacksmiths are not very un- cominon. What is to become ofthe refinements of social life, the sweet sacredness of home? But I felt sorrier, it possiple, for the poor little dogs than even for the women. They have a dog's lite indeed. They are not very big—no larger than the common despised “yellow dog” of America—yet two of them draw loads which seem heavy enough for a horse. The little things are harnessed underneath a sort of long, heavy barrow upon wheels; this holds the load. Aman or woman holds the handles of the thing, and the dogs trot along beneath. The ribs stick out, ill-padded with flesh, as though they were not very well fed. Their panting sides, lolling tongues and sorrowful. appealing eyes would touch the heart of astone. Every. thing hereabcuts, too, seems done by sheer brute strength. There ts no saving of labor, either by machinery or by the application of | common-sense. In the field we saw no Ameri- icultural machinery, as in England and |. Where in America a load of bag- ze, trunks, valises and boxes would be piled high upon a dray or great truck, and trans- ferred at one gulp for short distances, here your porter takes it upon his head or arm, as the ease may be, and lugs it off slowly ‘and painfully one piece at a time. We have had more fuss and trouble to keep from losing our coming from London to Cologne, hould have had at home in going from to San Francisco and back again.

Taking. | jon late has at Jeast the advantage of not | haying to return to harness until the hardest | eather is over; going to the country in antuma has the advantages of cooler traveling, freedom from crowd, lower prices, more exclusive at- tendance. Those who do not have to return that the children may not miss their schools, and those who can choose their weeks, are fortunate in having the cooler months at com- id, cenes in | if ims of the season are worth but are trivial when compared with ity for being enjoyed. The chief occupation during the summer months is to keep cool; it isa sufficient one, demanding all the resources of fans, shade, hammock, and casual reezes; the days must usually be given up to it, and as for “doing” anything, the great neces- | sity is to ayoid doing. But September and Oc- ; tober, barring a few warm d: raise the heat blockade, and say to us, as in school days we once heard the delicious sentence, ‘The boys (and girls) may go out.” Then there are things tobe done. For gathering ferns, golden rod, boneset, and other “‘yarbs,” common milk-weed pods packed with daintiest plumes, dry grasse: mosses, leaves, and the innumerable list of odd ties discoverable everywhere by the keen- ‘yed; for picking the nuts and fruits of the season. This isthe time for pedestrianism of the genuine sort. The harvest wagon may be ridden to the barn; woodchucks wait to be dug out; the gnarled trees are ready to refute the city notion that apples grow in barrels; the brown old cider mill looks as it looked thirty years ago; the hound sees the gun and barks frantically; ‘Bob White” calls; the chipmunk and the “red” are as nervous as ever on the rail fence; the woodpecker flashes in the old way around the tree; the chestnut still wears its porcupine overcoat with satin lining; beech- nuts are angular and cornery; the round hick- oryand butchy hazel fill the bag, but have their old disproportion between the size of “shuck” and nut. Nature holds her even way the same to the man as to the boy; and though the tormer has found life chiefly illu- sions, he can never be quite disenchanted; it he wanders in the woods in October, everything is a scene revisited; as in a dream, which he also dreams ina dream, he is here—and there. Al- though each seam in his face counts a present trouble,if he everhad any sympathy-with nature he can, by being willing to do so, saunter alone “through the woods, engaged in nu more serious Seca neHon than pocketing nuts ong by one, for which he digs away the Heexeg either with stick ip orwith finger, and vet can be a state of equipoise of consciousness, every sense lulled for the time. and finding simple existete, animal-like, blissful and content. . This because all the time,is avaflable for use —even rainy days showing peculiar effects of cloud-caps on hills and mist yeils in hollows— and because the whole movement of the season is scenic and varied. June has her beauty of freshness, and it is charming to see verdure putting out; yet all this is simple compared with the changes with which the year ripens. There is a law which forbids duplicates, and in all this prodigal splashing of red, orange, and brown there cannot be found two scenes, two seasons, or even two leaves alike.
