NATURAL BRIDGE OF AGATE.
Arizona Claims This Wonder In Its
Famous Petrified Forest.

There is unending variety OF mar
velous sights to be seen in the pet
rified forest covering thousands of
acres in the eastern part of Arizona.
but what is regarded as the greatest
Of all is the bridge OF petrified wood,

wide-a bridge of agate and jasper
overhanging the only clump of living
trees found within the forests bord.

ded in shale and sandstone, leaving
100 feet of It either wholly or partly
exposed. How much OF its length still
remains completely buried is un-
known, but each year the action of the
elements brings more into view.
So far, time has graciously spared
the integrity of this natural curiosity,
but in the last few years the log has
begun to show signs of yielding to the
natural inclination of petrifed trees
and in several places transverse cracks
appear. Fearing that the bridge
would tumble to destruction the gov.
eminent has recently had two stone
abutments erected under it. making OF
It bridge Of three spans. This nc
doubt will preserve 1t for at least sew

II is sometimes interesting to watch
the curves imitators make to get the
public to buy limitations Of genuine
goods.
Every now and then some one will
think there Is splendid opening to
fix up something like Postum Coffee
and advertise the same way and take
some OF the business.
An imitator is naturally ignorant OF
food values and how to skillfully
make cereal coffee, on scientific
lines.
Such men first think OF preparing
something that looks and tastes like
the original, with no knowledge Of
how the grains should be treated to
prepare them so that the starchy part
is transformed properly and the val.
liable nourishing elements made d.
gestible.
Such limitations may be foisted on
the public for a short time, but the
people are critical and soon detect the
attempt then the imitators go out OF
| business.
Something like 400 OF these little
factories have been started in various
parts of this country in the past 8
years, and practically all of them have
