The Wonders
of America
MESA VERDE NATIONAL PARK.
By T. T. MAXEY

TN 1888 there was discovered In
i Montezuma county, southwestern
Colorado, the greatest prehistoric ruins
in this country. A thorough examina-
ton of the canyon of the Mancos
river disclosed the fact that 1T con-
tained extensive examples of the mys-
terious remains of an extinct race
Uncle Sam decided to preserve and set
aside nearly $4,000 acres as national
park-Mesa (Spanish for high table
land) and Verda (meaning green, from
the cedar trees).
Many narrow canyons with high,
sheer walls open into the valley. In
their sides are many of the best-pre-
served specimens of cliff dwellings
known. large human population
lived in these cave-huts on the sides
of these sandstone cliffs. They be-
lieved that they were dependent upon
the gods to make the rainfall so their
crops would grow and worshiped the
sun as the father of all and the earth
as the mother who brought all material
blessings. Apparently they possessed
no written language and recorded their
thoughts only by means of symbols.
Cliff Palace. the largest dwelling
community house-had over 200 dwell
ing rooms. in addition to many sacred
rooms called kivas. Sun Temple,
mysterious ruin, shaped like letter
d, is over 100 feet long enc "a feet
wide.
AS the population of this community
increased the floor of the caves was
covered with rooms and finally they
emerged from the caves altogether and
builded pueblos on top of the mesas
in the open country.
A visit to these ruins is much like
going back into another world.

THE WHITE HOUSE.

THE home of the president of the
1 United States, generally known as
the White House, first became known
as such when it was painted white to
cover the marks of fire after being
partially burned by the British in 1914
The foundation of this world-famous
structure was put down in October,
1892. 1t was the first building erect d
in Washington. The site was picked
by President George Washington. who
also laid the corner stone.
The building was first occupied by
President John Adams, during the
summer of 1900. 1t is two stories and
basement, and contains 81 rooms. 1t
is surrounded by spacious lawn and
gardens, which are inclosed by huge
iron fence. Whether viewed through
the heavy foliage of the giant trees
or across winters mantle of snow, 1t
always looks restful and dignified.
The White House naturally has been
the scene of many tragedies and come
dies, much joy, and also has had its
share of anxiety and grief. 1t holds
a peculiar interest for the people of
all nations, those of the United States
in particular. 1t is a point of pill
grimage for thousands and thousands
of people annually, who come to ad-
mire its decorations and paintings,
study the relics of past occupants and,
if opportunity offers, grasp the hand
of the first citizen of the land. To Il
greater degree perhaps than any other
building in the world, people of all
ages and ranks have mingled under its
roof.

USING BLANKET TO SAVE ICE
Better to Keep Food In Other Com

The blanketed ice in refrigerator

the person who placed the blanket
there is the cause of it, specialists in
the department of agriculture declare
A refrigerator is kept cold by the ice
melting and taking up the heat within
the insulated walls. When the ice is
kept from melting ice is saved but not
food.
At times when it is necessary to
wrap the ice to make it last until the
new supply comes, any perishable food
which is to be used without further
cooking should be moved up as close
to the ice as possible. Ordinarily,
however, it is better to keep food In
other compartments In order that the
air may circulate freely.

UTAH-"THE PROMISED LAND"

T. IRST settled in the summer of lS4I
i by Brigham Young and his little
band of Mormons, numbering less than
$50 souls. Utah is fast coming into its
own. Utah is 100000 acres larger
than all of the New England states
combined, and there isn't much, If,
indeed, there is anything-within rea-
son-that the imagination of man can
conceive or his heart wish for that the
state does not yield or cannot offer.
'Tis said that Utah contains enough
iron ore to rebuild most of the steel
structures in the country; sufficient
black marble to build column from
the earth to the moon; salt enough to
supply the world for 60 years; the
greatest copper mine in all the world !;
enough coal to supply her population
for 10000 years; clay and sand enough
to make the worlds supply of brick for
many years; 1000, 100000 feet of lum-
ber and sandstone and granite in
quantities equal to the rebuilding of
the majority of the buildings in the
United States.
Gold, silver, copper. lead and zinc

and fruit are also produced.

THE GRAND CANYON IN ARIZONA

IT HE late George Fitch said Arizona
was made by nature in frivolous
and contradictory mood, few million
years ago, just to show man, when he
arrived, what she could do when she
felt like it,
The Grand Canyon of the Colorado
River-the most wonderful geological
and spectacular phenomenon known to
man-is in Arizona. Discovered by
Spanish explorers in 1910, 1t has been
an object of wonder and admiration
ever since. In approaching it your
first surprise is that you are not pre-
abrupt In one jump from the edge
you could go down 1000 feet.
Viewed from the rim, looking down,
1t is a stupendous panorama-an unbe-
lievable abyss, 5000 to 5000 feet deep
10 to 13 miles wide and 200 miles long
Its sides are lined with countless and
varied ornamental architectural fea-
tures, the whole beautifully tinted and
colored and marvelously harmonious.
Seen from the bottom, looking up, it
is so big that it amaZes and bewilders
one. On every side are endless pro-
ceSsions of caves, terraces, pinnacles,
towers, buttes, cliffs and peaks-storm-
carved and her-stained-many of
them higher than any mountain east
of the Rockies, yet none of them level
with the top. Globe trotters say that
nothing else in all the world even re-
motely approaches this spectacle.
The color combination seems to
shift with every movement of the sun,
clouds or your position. There is
trail to the bottom and road around
the rim.

YOSEMITE VALLEY, CALIFORNIA.

THIS beautiful valley-now a part of
i Yosemite National park, by the
way-is one of natures most wonder
full works of art. The valley is only
eight miles long and less than two
miles wide. The park embraces a do
main about SO by 4S miles. Here the
supreme artist has chiseled and etched
and painted an outdoor gallery of mas
terpieces unlike any other in the world.
The Indians termed the place the
Heart of the Sky Mountains and called
it "The Vale of the Advance" and
themselves Ahwaneeches, or children
of Light"
The excelling features of the Yo-
semitic are its waterfalls and sheer,
bold cliffs. Snow-waters from high
mountains have found a wonderful
variety and beauty of courses down
the mountain walls to the Merced river
in the valley below. These peculiar
peaks strikingly resemble huge domes
and range in height all the way from
1900 to 6,000 feet. The falls which
descend their rugged sides range in
height from $50 feet-Vernal falls,

the world combines so much that is so
sublimely beautiful. Ii is "a bite of

"The first time l have worn 1t and
look at that spot!
Every one is familiar with that re-
mark, made in an anguished tone of
voice. The tragedy Of spelling new
garment. however, is eliminated If the
unfortunate one knows just what
to apply for that particular kind of
STAIN.
The removal of stains is necessary
feature of the laundering and general
care of clothing and other household
textiles. Nearly all stains may be re-
moved easily at home If reliable
methods are known.
One of the most important factors
is to apply the stain remover while
the stain is still fresh. Drying, ex-
posure to air, washing and ironing,
all make 1t harder to remove the
stain. The nature of the stain should
be known If possible before its re-
moval is attempted, since this de-
termines the treatment to be adopted.
An unsuitable stain remover may
comes difficult or even impossible.
Treatment Depends on Fabric.
The kind of fabric on which the
stain occurs also should be known, for
the method of treatment depends
much on the nature, color, weave, fin
ish and weight of the fabric. Do not
use strong acids on cotton, and even
diluted ones should be neutralized aft
erwards with a suitable alkali. Care
also should be taken in the use of the
alkali, as it weakens the fabric.
After any reagent rinse the fabric
well. Do not use very hot water on
wool or silk. Rubbing also must be
avoided with these fabrics. Both wool
and silk are dissolved by strong al
kalis; borax or a weak solution of
ammonia is more suitable. Acids,
with the exception of nitric, do not at
tack silk and wool readily.
With colored materials avoid use of
a bleaching agent which will destroy
the color of the material. Because OF
this 1t is much more difficult to re-
move stains from colored material
than from white.

Blood and Meat Juice.-Use cold wa
ter; soap and cold water; or starch

Chocolate and cocoa.-Use borax

Hash may be made with one or
many cooked vegetables used alone or
combined with meat or fish. Potato
is the most useful vegetable for
hash, as it combines well with meat
or with other vegetables.
1t is essential for good hash that the
vegetables be cut fairly fine, but not
so fine that the pieces will lose their
shape or stick together-that is, the
particles should drop apart readily
when shaken on fork. Each vege-
table must be cut up separately, then
all be mixed. The vegetables, or vege-
table. and meat or fish must be well
seasoned with salt and pepper, and
if liked there may be added little
minced onion, chives, parsley, chervil,
or green pepper finely minced' Inc
hash must be moistened little with
meat broth, milk or water-not more
than half cupful for quart of hash.
When the hash is mixed, seasoned
and moistened put tablespoonful OF
butter or savory drippings in frying
pan. When this is melted put in the
hash and spread evenly and lightly IN
the pan. Over this put little dots OF
butter or savory drippings, using about
one tablespoonful in all. Cover the
pan and place where the hash will not
burn but where the heat is fairly good
and cook for half an hour, then fold
and turn on hot platter. A rich
brown crust will have formed on the
bottom of the hash If the heat was
sufficient. Serve it hot, and on heated
plates
