A Tremendous Uphoavai of Mature.

There is in Western Utah, sixty
miles from Phoebe, a sort Of lava for.
nation running through an immense
canyon, which shows plainly that
some tremendous upheaval of nature
visited the country and probably de.
stroyed everything it encountered for
miles round about. In the dryest
part of this most desolate spot large
stream Of water comes gushing out OF
high cliff. as If it came from the
gigantic nozzle of great hose, and
falls cataract into the abyss below.
Before reaching the bottom, however,
the water lis disseminated into fine
spray and spreads out like huge fan,
the play and sport OF the winds. 1t is
a strange and beautiful sight. Prob,
ably in some period long past the bed
Of a river was where the water merges,
but volcanic upheavsl has changed
the face OF nature, sinking the bed OF
the river many hundreds OF feet and
leaving the water to pour from its OF.

The debts of the civilized nations
now add up total of over S32, 000,-
900, ,000-most Of it incurred in wars.
To realize what thirty-two billions
means few comparative statements
are necessary. The highest total value
of the entire cotton crop OF the United
States in any recent year was less than
$500, 900, 900. If, therefore, the whole
American cotton crop were sold for
100 years in succession, and the pro-
ceeds applied to the payment of the
worlds indebtedness-mainly incurred
for wars and war preparations-there
would still remain an unpaid balance
of nearly two billions. Professor H.
G. Adams of Cornell some time since
calculated that the interest payments
alone on these aggregated debts of the
nations equal the value of the labor
of 5000, 900 men working constantly
at S1.50 per day per man.

claimed, was OF the purest kind, being
in reality water distilled by nature
and favored with the pleasant aroma
OF the apple. He partook Of the one
