For bitterness and promiscuousmeanness, the waters.of Mono lake surpass those of the Bead Sea. They contain so much alkali that on a windy day the lake is a regular tub of soap suds'. The writer has seen a wall of lather live feet high along* the whole of that shore against which the waves were beating. Occasionally the wind would take up a bunch of this latheras bigv as a bushel basket and carry it several, hundred feet inland. So buoyant are the waters of the lake that quite a party- of men . may navigate them on a raft made of four or live dry cottonwood poles.—San Francisco Chronicle.
