256 AMONG THE CELESTIALS. [CHAP. IX.
the gloomy forests of the Ever-White Mountain
and the bounding prairies of Mongolia, over
the level plains of Turkestan, and across the
loftiest range of mountains in the world. I had
experienced every kind of climate drenching
rains and a dryness inconceivable to a dweller
in Europe ; the scorching heat of a desert
summer, and the biting cold of a Himalayan
glacier. I had found shelter in Chinese inns,
in Manchurian farmhouses, in the rude huts of
the forest sable-hunters, in a Cossack colonel's
quarters, the palatial residence of our minister
at Peking, the felt tents of the nomad tribes,
and the mud-houses of Central Asian villagers ;
and lastly, in the severest part of all for weeks,
in crossing the Himalayas, I had slept entirely
in the open without even a tent.
If the knowledge thus hardly acquired can be
of value to others ; if, in the future, experiences
gained while I was but twenty-four can help me
as they have in the past, I shall feel doubly
repaid for whatever hardships I may have
endured. And I can even now feel that those
few full months of toil and stress have brought
to me a life-enduring pleasure.
