Natural Snow Bridges.

A slow thaw, following a heavy fall
OF snow, Is almost sure TO form, here
and there. miniature natural bridges
OF snow. over which a rabbit or even
fox might run without crushing the
short span. According to the lay OF
the land. the melted snow water col
lects at certain place and gradually
eats Its way under another part not
melting so rapidly. and this tunnel.
growing larger from the increasing wa
ter. soon forms the span. In the same
manner natural bridges OF earth and
rock are formed after hundreds Of cen
turtles OF erosion. while the snow
Bridges are formed in a few hours and

Not for many years have the children
Of New York enjoyed such a winter as
the weather man has provided this
year There have been half a dozen
snowstorms. and some OF the time the

skates and sleds have been much In

such opportunities go to waste. for
some of them remember winters when
there was not snow or Ice enough to
