Life has .its sorrows, hut she knows the wisdom of sorrow. She does not speak of death--his truer name is onward. / Sin is but a phase in the march of development. And' for dogma--the East Is lenient. She says with Bahram Mirza: "Truth is a bird that flies so fast that the eye of men cannot follow It, and so high that it is lost to sight In the skies. Lut now and then one of its feathers falls, and when it wouches the earth it becomes such a prophet as Mahomet or Moses. No man on earth has heard the voice of that bird, nor shall he hear It before he sits down beneath the lote tree in phradise." But all this is mystery to the many who travel to see the beauty of the East, and very often wil] you hear the three laughters of the fool from those who come from far to visit her. For tie fool laughs at a thing because It is good and he laughs at a thing be- cause it is bad. And he laughs at 'a thing he cannot understand. The Pacific. To any meditative Magian rover, this serene Pacific once beheld, must ever after be the sea of his adoption. It rolls the midmost waters of the world, the Indian ocean and Atlantic being but its arms. The same waves wash the moles of the new-buiit Cal- ifornian towns, but yesterday planted by the recentest race of men, and lave the faded but still gorgeous skirts of Asiatic lands, older than Abraham; while all between float milky-ways of coral isles, and low-ly- ing - endless, unknown Archipelagoes and impenetrable Japans.
