A Natural Bridge of Agate.

Il mining expert sent to invcsti.
gate some Arizona properties for Len
yer capitalists recently returned. and
reports the finding of a most remark
able natural bridge formed by a tree
of agatized wood, spanning a canyon
fOrty-fve feet in width. The tree
had at some remote time fallen and
become embedded in the silt of some
great inland sea or mighty water
overflow. The silt became in time
sandstone, and the wood gradually
passed through the stages of mineral
iZati0n, until it is now a wonderful
tree of solid agate.
In after years water washed and
ate away the sandstone until a can
yon fOrty-tive feet in width has
Teen formed, the flintv-liEe substance
of the agatizcd wood having resisted
the erosion OF the water flow, Fully
fifty feet Of the tree rest On one side
anu can be traced, but how far it's
other side lies buried in the sandstone
cannot be determined without blast
ing away the rock.
The trunk visible above the CANYON
varies in size from four feet to three
feet in diameter. Where the bark
has been broken and torn away the
characteristic cOlors of Jasper and
agate are seen. TO the naked eye
the wood is very handsome. Under
a microscope or miners magnifylnG
glass the brilliancy of the colorings is
quite clearly brought out in all the r
w%OndrouS leauty and attractivenesS.
The Dakota chief. (Gann Valley, Buffalo County, S.D.) 18??-1913, 1894-04-05
without Wives and Babies.

Man is but an incomplete being
without a helpmeet: in fact, only a
mOiety of a man, waiting to be per-
fected by the addition of a ''better
half"
The royalty of his nature remains
undcvelobed while he is single.
Only when he has a wife to pro-
tect and cherish, and children to
train and discipline does he attain
his true status in the world.
Abdon, the Judge of Israel, whose
forty sons and thirty grandsons fled
of before him, mounted on three
score and ten ~asscolts, may be sup
posed to have felt wonderfully edited
and built up by the spectacle.
How the old mans heart must have
bounded with honest eXultation
when he beheld such a cavalcade of
his W raising.
Modern papas do not trot out their
offspr ng in the imposing Oriental
style; but when they see troops OF
them caCering about on hobby
horses, nursing doll babies, and in
other ways d%ispOrting themselves af-
ter the manner of Christian urchins
OF the present general ion, they are,
no doubt, Just as happy as was the
patriarchal Abdon, and much prouder
than if they had eclipsed PraXiueles
as statuaries or heated Chcops at py-
ramid building.
Home and family!-what a dreary
ObleCuleSS life is his who has not
these to are for, and what a desert
of a world this would be without the
wives and babies.
