But, if the luxury of walking it with stick and knapsack is denied us, and we must needs see it by motor-car, we cannot fail to make one observation, that of the surprising variety of natural scenery packed in so small a space. Between Land's End and the Tweed the eye and the imagination have encountered every form of the picturesque.
The whole land's frozen, isn't it, most of the year?" "They'd sealing rifles, and the Koriaks make out farther north in their roofed-in pits. One can live on seal and walrus meat and blubber." Agatha shivered. "But they'd no tents, or furs, or blankets. It's horrible to imagine it." "Yes," said Wyllard, gravely, "that's why I'm going for them." Agatha sat still a moment.

"What's that?" exclaimed Mrs. Brandeis, sharply. "Yes, it is!" hooted Theodore.
"Why, how you talk!" "Didn't ye see 'em all standing around as we drove away from the church, casting sheep's eyes? And they're hating each other already like a hen hates dishwater. I swan!" "For the land's sake!" "No. For Ida May's sake," chuckled Cap'n Ira. "That's who I've got to defend with a shotgun." The girl flushed rosily, but she laughed, too.

The first is to sell out as soon as we can find a buyer, with unfortunate results if your valuation's right; but the second looks more promising. With immigrants pouring into the country, land's bound to go up, and we ought to get a largely increased price by holding on a while. To do that, I understand, the land should be worked." "Yes.
