Book Companionship.

Books are a guide in youth and an
entertainment for age. They support
us under solitude and keep us from
being burden to ourselves. They
help us to forget the crossness of men
and things; compose our cares and
our passions; and lay our disappoint-
ments asleep. When we are weary
of the living We may repair to the
dead, who have nothing of peevish-
ness, pride or design in their con-
versation.--J Jeremy Collier.

eeSaIly nat Is erroneous. Most portions OF
Tue average desert bear extensive though
sohie"nat widely spaced, fora. Many desert
regions contain numerous settlements the Sa-
nara desert for instance having a population
OF 100000. Loose sand is a minor feature
ana much more prevalent on the seacoasts and
along the bottom lands of rivers. There are
Wide areas Of bare rocks and the larger des-
erts include mountains, ridges mesas and deep
canyons
Inc deserts of the southwest are regions
OF very scanty rainfall, parts Of them having
only three inches a year and evaporation of
eighty Inches or more
This canyon is the mile-deep gorge cut by
the Colorado river across the high plateau OF
northern Arizona. The view from the rim
reveals the most stupendous panorama imag-
Unable, for one sees into an area of about 600
square miles filled with an endless variety OF
most rugged topographic forms of many beau
tfful colors. On the skyline ten to fifteen
miles away, is the edge Of wide-reaching pla-
teau, and In the middle ground Of the picture
flows the Colorado river, nearly a mile below
ones feet.
The features are so gigantic and SO plainly
In view that all sense of scale is lost and 1t is
not until one has been down to the bottom of
Inc canyon al the river level that any adequate
sense of proportion can be gained
The canyon was discovered by Cardenas
who went to its edge In 1910 on a branch trip
from Coronado's expedition, on information OBJ
tanned by Tovar from the Hopi Indians. The
original name given to the river was Tison
Spanish for frebrand, and 1t is to be regretted
that the name has not been retained to avoid
the present confusion due to the river having
the same name as the state.
