Beyond Trollhatten the stream expands to the proportions of a lake, while a number of green and wooded islands divide it into several channels. Thence it traverses the Lake of Wenner, which is ten or twelve miles long, and proceeds onward through a country of no great interest, until at Sjotorp it passes into the river again.

"Do you not prefer either of your suitors?" "I would rather throw myself into lake Wenner, than to marry either of them." "Then let us speak of the school. It will give you a little income, and is, as far as I can see, the only method of using your accomplishments to advantage." "You are right. It is my only choice."

But with the history of this maiden he weaves the workings of an evil genius, which in the end is triumphant; for even the pure are contaminated after they arrive at that period when they consider that vice has its virtues. Our story is located near the beautiful Lake Wenner, in a valley which much resembles that described by La Fontaine.

Oh, why is not my little nymph of the fountain the possessor of a ton and a half of gold? The little creature hm She is really too beautiful!" The usually turbulent lake Wenner, presented, on the evening of which we are about to write, an unruffled and mirror-like appearance.

It was worse still in a squall on the Wenner lake; for while the ship was rather roughly tossed about, many a trunk lost its equilibrium and fell from its high position, frequently endangering the safety of the passengers' heads. The fares are, however, very cheap, which seemed doubly strange, as the many locks must cause considerable expense. And now for the journey itself.

Such an appearance, therefore, in the approach to the Lake of Tiberias is only a parallel to similar phenomena exhibited by rocks near the Lakes of Locarno and Bolsenna in Italy, by those of the Wenner Lake in Sweden, by the bed of the Rhine near Cologne in Germany, by the Valley of Ronca in the territory of Verona, by the Pont de Bridon in the state of Venice, and by numerous other examples in the same country.
