One thing that we were determined to see was Fujlyama, the sacred mountain of the country, the imposing cone that is the motif of illustration on all artistic things Japanese. We. visited all sorts of places, which were _advertised as. the best voints from which to view it but it | was the ralny season and the old, monarch kept himself covered always with thick clouds. So we went on to China without having had a glimpse of it. And_ then, returning from Shanghai to Yokojtama, as we neared the lat- ter porf, we heard the cry, from some one on deck, “There's Fuji!”, We rushed out to the rail and sure enough there it reared its majestic head and shoulders above the hills, above the low-lying clouds, above sea and land, as If it fwere a vast tent pitched upon the clouds and uphold- Ing the sky upon its truncated sum- mit. s Only a few hours we saw it, and i passed—a type of life’s high moments of the fateful hrevity of the ‘wondrous. For no soul can dwell among am ing things and find them alway amazing. What makes a miracle ir that it happens but once, or rarely | repeated, it descends to the common Dlace. If nobody had ever seen a sun and once in a generation the gr ball should roll up the slopes of .th east, with all the daughters of Auror: about him, what an event that woulc | be. and would not the whole worlc crowd the hills and the housetops tc see it? But because the misty miracle ta place every day millions refuse leave their sleepy beds to look at it And what a shattering spectacl would be the night sky full of star if it were an exhibition but an hou in_a lifetime! But it is of the very nature of gkoF that it shall pass. We complain that life has but fc high hours, but it is because the are few that they are high We arc distressed that our days ar #0 commonplace, yet it is only fro this dull plain that we can sec th pillar of clond by day and the pilla of fire by night. The precious is fugacious. All loveliness is fleeting Whether it be the flash of an in sect’s burnished wing in the sunshin: the ripple of the wind upon the lak« the ivory softness of the lily, th electric thriM of first love, the hig moment of spiritual exaltation, it | unforgettable charm is its virgina newncss, its subtle fascination is ir its evanescence. When It Comes to Real Class See This FALL HAT { can In vain we pray to the me of perfection, “Stay with me can tarry but a moment and fare onward. It is the litgle child that died i infancy that Is the Micomparable one So the soul of man must ke traveling. When we have reache one coveted level, we must hasten u to the next, or the drabness will en gulf us, We were not made to dwell amon wonders, but to meet them at times Fairies, elves and all such creatur that poetize the actual cannot be seer when we look openly at them, they only be glimpsed out of t tail of the eye. If we dealt wit fairies every day they would be nc more Interesting than dogs and cats To live in continuous thrill and en. thusiasm would be to wind up as . nervous wreck. Many a hard year did Father Jaco labor. ‘but once he saw the heaven opened and the angels ascending an descending.
