Our friend, an enthusiastic first aider, smelling an accident, extricated ! himegelf from the press and hurried forward, only to find a poor bumpkin lying beside the train minus five toes.

A peculiar thrill attends the “pull- | ing out” from the railroad and the | plunge into the interior. Kven the old mules gtart more briskly at the first | few cracks of the whip. The jabber- | ing of the bystanders and the snarling | } of the curs have the same exhilarating | effect ou the mental tension as the | Chinese firecracker or the brass band on the German steamers. Tung Chow claims the name of Port of Pekin, because it is the head of navlgation on 1Le small river which copnects with the Grand canal.

The houses are all on about the same pattern, built of mud and straw. Thelir yards are inclosed by fences of kaoliang stalks, woven in various de- signs, resembling the paper mats made in our kindergartens.

New Year's gods adorn the gate posts, and overhead hangs a cage from which floats the melodious notes of a Mon- golian lark. As we neared the Ping-gu-Hsien (Flat Valley city) we left the green ! wheat fields behind aud found our-| selves on a quivering flery desert— ; not a house in sight, not a tree, only | the yielding, treacherous, slippery | sand. Suddenly there appeared on the horizon a deep yellowish cloud, ex- | tending rapidly from the northwestf CrINESE SEAMSTRESI into a whirling column, twenty yards in diameter, standing for a moment with perfect perpendicularity. Then, little by little, it leaned forward. and, like a great specter, it swept by us, passing so near that tangential partl- cles struck us with incredible force. When a mile away it unwrapped its our road. The donkey boy bent over, scooped up a handful of sand and toseed it to the dying wind. All was still. Approaching a Buddhist Temple. Throughout the afternoon we were climbing, and by nightfall we found ourselves ata most charming Buddhist temple. Chinan Ling Miao is 1,200 feet above a wild gorge, on an over- hanging rock, backed by a deuse grove of cedars. The temple is five hundred | years old and looks across to the great wall.
