The older Princess Nazleh was a terrible 'woman. She may be de- scribed as having been the Messalina of the Nile, was wont to invite good- looking foreigners into her palace at Cairo, from which they would never emerge alive, and is still remember- to this day for her cruelty; among other flendish acts laid to her charge being the punish- ment of a Sals, or runnping-footman, for not having kept in advance of her carriage, by having red-hot horse shoes nailed to his feet, pre- cleely as If he had been a horse, in- stead of a human being.

Reddish-Yellow Shade--A Fine Health Resort--Consul Pre dicts . That Lake Will. Become Popular With Sufferers Among those who arrived at New York Yecently on the Royal Mail liner Tagus was a young woman whose hdir was a charming, bright, reddish yellow," a tint that would have been the envy of the halr-dresser. To the friends who met hér on the plier and expressed admiration over the ap- pearance of her hair she smilingly denied that she had dyed it. She explained that it had been bleached by bathing in Lake ' Huactachina Peru. This lake is one of the won- der spots of the world, according to Luther K. Zabriskie, deputy consul at Callao, Peru. Thus he deseribes the lake which he predicts in the not far distant future will be accorded a place with the Hot Springs! eof Arkansas and Virginia, Saratoga Springs, Carlsbad in Austria, Wiesbaden in mn; and the waters of Bith, Aix ld Oha- pelle, and of Luchor: "A Take, the curative powers of whose waters have already wrought veritable miracles aniong thousands of sufferers, where after a few baths a person's hair is bleached t¢ a tint that defles duplication by the most 'adept of Parisian coiffeurs and whose beautiful surroundings and { strange history fascinate all who ap- proach the place, should have its glories heralded throughout the longth and breadth of the land: Lake Huacachina, in the south cen- part of Peru, as a gathering but few outward attractions. In fu- ture years it will have a well de- served world-wide popularity." The lake is about two miles dis- tant from the city of Ica, and some forty-six miles from the Pacific coast. 'I'ne country fon the most part in this immediate vicinity is well-nigh devoid of vegetation, and no other panorama presents itself to the visit- or than the wide stretches of sandy degert, and with dunes and small mountains of sand of such 'pure whiteness and brilliancy as almost y, | and séientific podsibilities, 15 awalisf its that; to one whe: has-not actual ly tested th the repo of their saline and other mineral properties side, and considering the quality of tho waters, does not hesitate to af- frm the crater of a volcano that has long sizce become extinct. "The waters are not clear or transparent but of a yellowish green taste and smell. They are strongly impregnated with sulphur, and this in a diluted form, in particles of green substances, sometimes as large as a hen egg, are floating every- where, 'In some places can be seen also a heavy incrustation of seum of the same sulphurotis matter covering large 'areas of the lake's surface. Near by, and strange to relate on the very edge of the lake itself, are found springs of sparkling = clear drinking water as well as springs of bitter waters, blackish and reddish in color, whose properties are as yet unknown.

The lake, he says, 'is slowly but'surely gaining in prestige, and this has beén 'large- ly brought about by private redom: mendations, from' person to" person, from sick ones cured to relatives and friends, bat through the press, he points out, nothing at all has beén done.

Notwithstanding = the Tack of amusement, those who visit the lake find conditions there to their Hking and come away with roports of a delightful "time well 'spent. The baths can be taken two and even three times a day. *, Small bathing houses are grouped along the shore of the lake which are but a stone's throw distant from the two hotels tnd the Several cottages, sults are to 'be had and attendants are constantly on hand, and whether the bath is taken in the early morn- ing, in the middle of the day, or at its close, it is always found refresh- ing and Invigorating. "With the majority of the people the action of the baths is noticeable in a feeling of well-being, almost of hilarity, an increase -of appetite, and a desire to sleep," says Mr, Zabriskie.
