pied if so desired. and in cold weather
it will be found very neat and warm
article of bed clothing, since the paper
will prevent the escape of heat about

The Worlds Geyser-Reg1ons.

In the number of springs and noted
geysers, the Yellowstone National Park
and New Zealand far exceed Iceland,
in which 1.-THE Great Geyser" and
Strokhr are the only two prominent
spouters. As to the number of springs
in New Zealand, there are no definite
data, but they appear 20 be numerous.
In the Yellowstone Park. over two
thousand springs have been enumerated
and mapped, and among them are sew
enty-one geysers, of which twenty are
known to spout to height of not less
than fifty feet. OF course, in each of
the three countries there are hot springs
outside of the areas as here indicated /;
and, ii these are taken into account.
the American localities will exceed the
others, especially if the California and
Nevada springs are counted. Howev-
er, leaving the latter out of
count, we find that in the adjacent
country both north and south of the
park there are springs on the same
north and south line with the geyser-
basins of Firehole River: and if they
are considered as part of the same
system, the length of the line of ther-
nal activity is about two hundred
miles.
As to the heights to which the gey-
sers throw the columns of water, there
is probably but little difference be-
tween the three regions, although the
Yellowstone Park has, perhaps, q
greater number which erupt regularity
to a height of one hundred feet or more.
The records Of the New Zealand gey-
sers are, however, somewhat deficient
as to data on this point.-A. G. Peale,

quite herd of cows, among them one,
an old COW, who wore bell. The cows
had been missing for several days, and
the boys were out searching, and one
afternoon | thought l would try what L

feet away, was a big mountain lion
standing on rock staring at me. as
sure you, never felt so bashful in my
life. I hadn't gun or even a jack knife,
and there was that beast staring and
getting ready for a spring. All at once
I thought of my umbrella, and as quick
as thought raised that much borrowed
article, and spread it right in Mr.. Lions

made one great jump clear across a
gorge, and when he lighted, gave yell
that shook the hills.
