Mountains and mountain ranges in the United States, and, indeed, the world over, have usually been med, not by the mountaineers themselves, but by the dwellers in the plains, who saw the mountains as a more or less distant pros- pect. It sometimes happens that a mountain or a mountain range hears two names, because of different aspects resent to dwellers upon each side, everal Blue and Blue l{ulw moun- tains were named manifestly by those to whom the ranges presented them- selves against a more or distant horizon. One of the Green mountains in Vermont is called Bald Face by dwellers in the Adirondack region about Paul Smith's, a name justitied by the aspect of the mountain from that part of the wilderness. The Adirondack Sugar Loaf could never have been named by & dweller upon its own top. The Orange mountains took their name, howey not from theirsunset aspect as seen from lowlands, but are only another evi- dence of the affection with which Dutch- men cling to the name orange, an affec- tion that has led them to fix that name on the map in whatever part of the world they may lmvu tarried, o The less OMAHA DAILY BEI APRIL 23 ISING SALE, 'NDAY Al D MORYES ¢ An Opportunity thas s Presented In n Lifetime tosset Good Shoes € There has heosi @ constant stream of people at the A.D.
