I must have been reading the same lines over and over again. It read, ‘““You can travel abroad without leaving your chair.” The lines became blurred and indistinct; finally they had faded and— I was walking down a road; the sun was hot and the meadows were a brilliant green. In the distance stood a church with tall spires. I walked forward and the meadows faded into little houses. In the center of a little street stood the church. The sun struck the beautiful rose window in the cathedral and sent shining lights of color everywhere. As I gazed, the building became a mountain, with a snowy top and smoke ! coming from it. Of course, it was Fujyama, the Japanese volcano, and I was standing in a charming garden looking at it from a great distance. Around me were dwarf trees and fragrant cherry blossoms. Tiny garden houses and pagodas peeped out from the trees. A little bridge crossed a silver stream, and a winding path lay ahead. I turned and there I saw standing beside me a lovely Japanese girl. “Whose garden is this,” I asked. i She shook her head and as I watched, she turned into a fierce lion which, strangely enough, was smiling. | “Don’t hurt me,” the lion said. | “Of course not,” I laughed. After all, I had to humor him. i ““Where’s Tarzan?” I asked. “Oh, he’ll be along presently. We’re to have tea at four. You'll stay, naturally.” “No, I’m off,” I answered. “It’s a long walk home.” I hurried ahead, and noticed that the Japanese garden was a jungle and that the i cherry trees had turned into great primeval trees that kept the sun out. Looking ahead, I saw what appeared to be an inscription on clay. The writing was early Egyptian. ; Unaccountably the jungle trees were camels and Arabs and the inscription was on a i tomb. Looking intently at it, I saw it become print and then, blinking my eyes, I realized that this was still I reading the same book. But how much smarter I am now, i for I know exactly what is meant by: “You can travel abroad without leaving your chair.” Anne MacDougal
