rivers, \uitcrfalls, of n lake of sap-
phire set within a circle of emerald
hills and snow-cupped mountains, al-
together a picture of enchanting beau-
ty. The magnificence ot‘ its historical
and literary traditions have enriched
the ages, and some of their icelnndic
translations are now being adopted by
other nations. The spoken language
of today differs so little from that
of the Twelfth century that the Sages
of that time continue to be, in the
original text, the daily reading of nil
clnsscs. The remarkable revival of art

has come from the reawakenlng of

Queer Earthquake Prank.
An earthquake that Shook India not
so long ago was remarkable for the
curiously distorting effects it pro-
duced on standing objects. Similar nt-
l'ects have been noticed from other
earthquakes. but seldom to so striking
an extent. In an official report in the
matter it is described how this earth-
quake twisted a lofty monument ut
(.hntak. The monument was an obth
lislt of brick, coated with plaster, more
than sixty feet tall and twelve feet
square at the base. About six feet
of the top was broken off and thrown
to the east. Then a piece twenty feet
in height was separatedtWenty-three
feet above the ground and twisted in
a direction opposite to the motion at
the hands or a. watch. but without
