Tahiti la an extraordinary work of creatlon-a Jagged, fertile cinder from volcanic pita, perhaps, or a ver dant framneiit of sunken continent It la indeed ateepled gem of won drous green within a teeming coral ring. This captivating heart of Tolynesla presents abundunt evidence that In Its adornment nature was In a liberal inood. Here the eye la delighted by leafy luxuriance atretchlng from palm- frlmred beach to loftiest mountain crest; by the brilliant colors of land and sea; by the hliih physical stand ards of the natives, both men and women. Here Hie ear la soothed by the wash of an Inner sea; by the flow of genlle streams or of bolnteroua mountain torrents. Here the tired or dis tressed mind Is composed and renewed by lusting quietude, and by the knowl edge that mildly competitive ceutere are fnr away. Overtihadowlng all are the moun tains. In every colossal pile there Is distinctiveness. Mere a mighty slab rUes hlch a'oove a valley; there a peak with a Mangle summit shoots thousands of feet upward; beyond, lofty columns hundreds of feet In thickness stand In aolltnry grandeur; another turn and a shaft cuts the sky with an edge like an enormoua knife an edge to which tree, shrub, fern and vlue cling tenaciously. An Amiable Country. As Its Indulgent climate might well suggest. Tuhltl la an amlnhle country. Along all Its shores one sees smiling. care-free fucea, bright, liquid eyes ex pressing contentment and Inviting confidence, and generous bands out stretched In welcome. . Everywhere one hears musical voices carrying notes of kindness and sympathy; dully the visitor Is gladdened by the gracious "liuere ami!" or the eoclul "Iorsna 1" Tahiti Is not in abode of aavogea. It still hns primitive life, but of bur burlsm It baa none. There life and property are aafe; compulsory educa tlor quickens the .nlnd of the youth ful; and the church, tha vermicular religious press, and contact with the Caucasian broaden, In a limited way, the Intellect of the adult. It la most ImpresKlve to gain one's first view of Tuhltl at dawn. To the right and left strangely shnped moun tains clenve the sky, and In their denM) wooded depths flit fantastic out lines of crng, penk, and precipice. On coral-strewn shore lull pulma Hup lazy welcome. .In the distance rise the green spires of I.a Dliideme. Ile tween them and the Jutting reef.

The great !U of Hit Polynesi an la now well advanced on his dully march across the aky, In the soli tudes of the Interior, dark with luxu riant foliage, vupor shadows fantasti cally lilt about. In the burst of llghl one sees more clearly the strung fea tures of rocky height, the palm-shel tered shores, and the secluded town beneath leafy sunshudes.

As the steamer drsws near the shore many small craft the plctur etqne outrigger canoe, the broad beamed fruit boat, and the noisy gas ollne schooner lie at anchor or move about the lake-like bsrhor.

The market opens at 5 -..10, the shops remove their shutters .10 minutes later, and the laborer be gins work at the same hour. , Only the Carta Move Rapidly. All this activity, however, la quiet hustle. The only nolae Is the rattle of luntern-llglited carta driven furl omly by native Jebua. These men of the whip love speed, and they IiibIm on getting It even though the horse they drive looks like cadaver. At 11 o'clock, and In some cases an hour sooner, Papeete pauses to take siesta of an hour or two. During this period all places of buslnesa are closed, barring Chinese shops, which keep open uninterruptedly until bed 1 1 mo. The most animated moment of the town's dully life begins shortly after ita tVHXl Inhabitants awaken. The site of this activity la the market square Sunday la the chief market duy of the week. At that time neatly dressed men and women from many parte of Tahiti assemble at the market half an hour before tlie opening bell clung Ita signal. On the previous day and night, boat loads of fela (plantains) and orongos are laid outside the market building In preparation for the morning rush, and In the Kiihhath dawn strings of fish and wagons tilled Willi soil prod ucts are hurried to the vlctunlers' stands. The scene la enlivening; the crowd ll friendly and guy. There meet comrades and relatives who have long been separated; there while and brown elbow each other In neighborly fashion.
