Every town desires to at t ract citizens, to induce people of character and respectabil i ty to buy or

-rejafe proper ty and reside within its ilapftk' People will not go to an ugly or A^gleeted town to live if they can find o n e which is - bet ter cared for. Chi ldren raised in beautiful homes have a decided advantage over those who spend the i r early years amid ugliness. Therefore the improvement of the ap-pesffaqce of a communi ty has au im-poEtaiice which is difficult to everesti-mat^l ! I t pays in more ways than one to hjave clean streets, clean dooryards and clean houses. They increase the valnjejof real estate and add to the pros­pe r i ty "of the people. This l i t t le ser­mon is 'not aimed at our pret ty village.

I t looks tb me EMe a group of mountain togs closely huddled to­gether, leaving li t t le room for valleys, though it has deep gorges and high rocky cliffs. T h e surface of t he moun­tains is moBtly_...covered, by low trees «nd shrubs, and in winter , after the rains have fallen, the verdure is Baid to be most charming. B u t one may see grass and flowers" even in Pulaski , though not Ui winter, so I give my attention t o t he " M a r i n j Gardens" of the Pacific. These, as you know, can only be seen through the glass bot­tomed boats. Having heard much about

them, we has^en/d to see with our own eyes what we had been slow to believe. " T h e half has never been .told" and never can be. Some of these boats aire propelled by steam and, can carry twenty persons, others afe row boats, but all have three heavy plates of glass 14x40 inches (as to-day I measured) placed lengthwise in the extreme bot­tom of ihe boat. These windows are protected by a rai l ing two feet high and the seats being placed on the sides of the boat, t he occupants; may lean upon the rail ing at leisure and look and wonder and exclaim. No words can piotnre the marvelous beauty, n ir ex­press the soul's emotions while looking upon these "wonders of the deep. ' Minature forests of s e a ' weeds and mosses of varied colors, grow upon the rooks at depths from ten feet to twelve fathoms below the surfaee of the water. How I wanted to get my hand upon them! Their beauty is enhanced by the action of the was t s ; giving somewhat the appearance of a moving panarama. And t he sea shells scattered and the schools of emerald fish and golden perch gliding, t o and fro in their beau tiful home, make the "Mar ine Gardens" a place of active life as well as beauty. I u the deeper waters are "creeping th ings" not so pleasing to look upon.

Everybody kt Catalina seems busy doing the thiugs they like to do, fishiDg rowing and surf bathing being the principal diversions. The mountain climb by foot paths, and the stage ride by "coach and six" are also much en­joyed.

Steam yachts make tr ips around the island, s topping at the old barracks of the soldiers of the Mexican war and passing Seal Books. The seals are not the furbt-aring kind, bu t like those in San Francisco Bay. Only a few are here.

Our steamer was followed all the way from San Pedro by the beautiful and harmless seagulls, and I wondered how long ere their fine plumage will adorn the hats of ladies who do~hot know the harm done the innocent birds. I t is said they are caught by men who roughly tear the feathers from the wings, then leave them bleeding and disabled to struggle for life' or die of starvation. We watched the flying fish as they came up from the water and skimmed above the surface like birds, then disappeared. Bu t we were more interested in a school of porpoise,some-times called the sea hog because of .its resemblance to the land hog we all know about. They seemed a merry crowd ha r ry ing along as if "on p l e ^ u r e bentj/^Bometimes on the surface- of the water and sometimes below. Whales are common on this .coast but we \ a w only OLS, solitary and alone.

Bat' dinner is called and this sea air has given us appetites tha t need no second call to our places at table. Aud so ends this letter from

Dr. Shef­field left behind him t h e manuscript of an article which appears n the Septem­ber Century under the t i t le of " T h e Inflnenee of the Western World on China ." As a result of the ' author 's thir ty years ' e x p e r i e n c e s a missionary, he is said to argue strongly against the dismemberment of the Middle King­dom.
