Here it were- needless for the romancer to leave the realm of fact and go groping in the world of fiction., lie has but to pen the depredation of Morgan, the revengeful, jealously of the barbarie gallantry of Balboa, the deadly hatred of the Cimmaroons or the greed of Pizar ro to fashion a story as gripping as i$ is strange and thrilling.

Material Achievement. Should material achievement be the theme desired, then the story of Aspinwall and Stevens and Chauncyrthe builders of the Panama railroad, make an early record of marvellous interest. And then that other achievement, the construction of the Panama Canal, will always remain the most glorious and spectacular construction attainment of ancient or modern times. So, as we anchored in the offing that June morning in Panama Bay and lay there for twenty-fou- r hours in order to comply with the quarantine regulations, I had ample time to revolve these things in my mind, for over there -- Every Woman Knows That instead of sallow skin and face blemishes she ought to possess the clear complexion of nature and good health.

Now I once met an English woman in India, who had preceded me to Delhi. She lived and traveled in terms of hotels.

At that moment another blast went off louder and more powerful than the first. Far out from the base of the island numerous splas hes indicated where fragments of falling stone dropped into the water. And so it went on all day, these deafening blasts, followed by a huge column of smoke. And each explosion awoke in mv soul a great wave of patriotic approval, for personally I have no patience with certain pineapple politicians who would have us believe that ted blood and the virile, eagle have reliinqiiished their rule to sucking grape juice and the dove.1 I know nil well that is the popular terminology of modern diplomacy the rights of alt nations are equally respected, but reckoned in terms of defensive an'd' offensive strength these same rights may vary accordingly. As yet the acts of the international world conform to the latter usage And so while dozing the sultry afternoon away in my steamer chair time at length polled on half a score of years, and each crash was now' the boom of mighty guns, answered from monster ships maneuvering beyond in battle array.

But I recalled Solomon Levis graphic picture of Panama before the days of sanitation when bring out your dead was the first order of the day. And I was content to wait. A Question of Hotels. Of course you will stop at the asked Mrs. B Tivoli? an American who, with her uxori autopsy held on its dead body. All this sanitation and comfort is to he commended. But I could imagine pretty well the inside of that hostelry. I have seen American hotels elsewhere, and there are none better, and I am proud of them. But on this particular occasion I determined to spend my time in Panama in seeking out as far as possible those areas where the maximum of local color may still be found. So. on the following day. when the Company s tender brought us alongside the temporary docks at Balboa I readily accepted the invitation of one of my countrymen employed on the Zone to ride with him to Panama. An Entrancing Ride. After guiding his ear between temporary tracks, dump heads and debris incident to the new dock construction, we shortly reached the beautiful road that led to the city! It' was a glorious ride over shady stretches of palm bordered macadam, past the Chi-- j nese cemetery to the heart of Panama. Here facing Santa Ana Plaza we found a hotel that was greatly to our liking. It was reminiscent of Ceylon, with its central court, from which broad steps led to ample rooms shaded Great by srengrous verandahs. double doors with ancient fastenings opened on the tropical court where flowers and small shrubs grew in reckless profusion. Along court one side of this pati-likunder a broad verandah a number of small tables stood, and here a few natives and foreigners sat and sipped- cooling drinks. Here later we ordered our supper and here we lingered unrestrained by social demands over a well prepared meal till the stars studded the patch of sky overhead. Then I thought of the impeccable Tivoli with its correct form, spotless linen and irreproachable ser- ice. I was glad I had ignored the advice of Mrs. B.
