' YOSEMITE VALLEY.— The Wonder Garden of the World, is situated in the heart of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Southern California. There is nothing to equal it on the globe; no trees so truly ideal in symmetry and yet so immense in growth; no valley so beautiful and yet so awful, where such Titanic forces have wrought, yet have left a park-like floor. Vertical walls more than 3000 feet high fence it in, and streams break over them in cataracts, one at least 15 times -the height of Niagara. There are five great Waterfalls plunging over the walls of this chasm from a height of 350 ft to 2600 ft. At the entrance to the .valley is the MARIPOSA GROVE OF BIG TREES, some of which are over 400 ft high, with a base circumference of 110 feet. • MONTEREY (DEL MONTE).— Notable among resorts of the world, is on the Bay of Monterey, 125 miles south of San Francisco, overlooking the broad Pacific Ocean, situated in the land of- perpetual sunshine and outdoor life and sport. • FARE ' (INCLUSIVE OF AMERICAN RAIL COACH; -HOTEL, A*ND STEAMER FARES: YOSEMITE AND RETURN, FIRSTCLASS:— £72.
