VALE OF KASHMIR.
A Beautiful Spot With a Record

Nstursl Calamities
Beautiful aud unfortunate la the
wonderful rale of Kashmir, lying high
among the Himalayas, ringed with gi
gantic peaks, "clothed to evergreen Or
and deodar, the light green bed of Jen
lam atrung across Its dun breast tike a
Jade necklace, blushlug with the ghost
ly pink of (teach and plum blossoms."
Kashmir has a persistent record of
natural calamity. Jehlara overflowa Its
banks at intervale and aeuda destroy
ing flooda that wlpo out whole districts.
The giant peaka around the valley stir
now and agalu In their sleep of agea
and ahake the flats with tnlfibty 'earth
quakes. Famiue and cholera kill mora
than the river and the trembling moun
tains. ' Fire frequently sweeps the fields and
cltlce. As one looka up at the hllla on
either sltle from the bod of Jehlnm It la
aeen that one slope Is covered with
' cool, dark forest, while the other grow
nothing but long grans. A spark In this
grass start the bin re. Among the
' Himalayas tbe air Is biting cold and
the Kashmiri carries a little charcoal
braslvr under his who to warm his
body. These pcripntctlu furnaces atart
many a flame.
