is very small. There has up to the
present time been some reason for this,
perhaps, in the lack of regular transportation
lines and of accommodations en
route and at the canyon. Perhaps, also,
the discomforts of the trips have been

considered greater than they really are. s
At any rate, the number of people who
visited the canyon last year from Flag- t
staff is registered as 168, which includes s

and which is nearly doable that of any
previous year.
From the time Powell first published
accounts of his trip down through the ;
canyon until the Atlantic and Pacific
Railroad was completed, some ten years
ago, it is safe to say that not 100 white
men ever saw the Grand canyon. The
number is gradually increasing now,
however, and with the establishment of
a stage line and hotel accommodations
en route and at the point of destination,
it may be expected that the Grand canyon
will very soon become a9 much a
Mecca to the tourist as the Yosemite
no* is.
Th#? mad frnm Flaofatftff is a verv ex
cellent one, being practically level. The
scenery is varied, and the ride one that
is in every way enjoyable. For the first
twenty and last fifteen miles it lies
through the remarkable pine forests to
be found only in Arizona. The trees
grow straight and trim, and there is a
total absence of underbrush, as though
it had all been carcfully cleared away.
The altitude of Flagstaff is 7000 feet,
and that at the canyon is perhaps a
thousand feet more, so that the climate '
is cool and delightful even in midsummer.
There are many interesting features of
scenery en route. There are the San
Francisco Mountains, perpetually covered
with snow, which are always in sight. ]
There is also Sunset Mountain, who3e i
summit always looks as though the sun 1
FLAGSTAFF,
were casting its last lingering rays upon
its top, though the time may be high
noon. There are openings and mesas
that suggest the old pastures and farms
of the Eastern States to the extent that
you are apt to look about for farmhouse
and bams; yet the almost total
absence of water renders it all uninhabitable
except to sheepherJers and
cattlemen.
Tbe Flagstaff road terminates at one
of the most interesting points on the
Grand canyon. The immediate vicinity
of the canyon is locally referred to as
"the rim." The Flagstaff road ends at
Hance's cabin, perhaps 100 yards from
the edtre of the clilf. But what is remarkable
about it is that there are no
signs of the astonishing wonder as you
approach. The country stretches away
in an expanse that is practically level,
covered with smallish pine and cedars,
and in no respect does it change as you
approach the canyon. Within a mile of
the terminus the road makes a gradual
descent, and when within 100 yards of
the precipice it rises sharply again, and
then the grand cinyon in all its tremendous
grandeur comes suddenly in si^ht,
almost as a stereopticon view is flashed
upon a ecreen. The effect is something
totally indescribable. You are not prepared
for such an amazing sight. The
country you have traversed has not
changed its characteristics in the least
until you come almost like a flash upon
the brink of this awful cavity that breaks
sheer away a mile and a quarter deep
and is eighteen miles wide. Away in the
blue distance the north bank resumes the
characteristics of that on which you
I
\
stand, and stretches away again in n vast
level expanse, covered with large trees
that at a distance look like grass or
small shrubs.
The most interesting section of the
canyon is that portion of it right along
here, stretching either way five or six
miles. It is, of course, understood that
the canyon is not a clean and unobstructed
cavity. There are mountains
and mesas down in its depths. There
are tremendous cliffs, sloping walls and
then again cliffs. Buttes and pillars
are scattered all around, some of them
worn in fantastic shapes by the waters

ages. The wonderful labyrinth of these
forms enchains the attention for hours at
a time, as the sun is continually shifting
the shadows, bringing out new shapes
and colorings and obliterating others that
at first seemed very beautiful. The strata
are everywhere distinct, and in many of
the pyramidal and battlemented form?
in which the formations have been worn
they are cut as sharply as the modern
new buildings in which several materials
enter, and are not unlike them in many
respects. Away down, plowing through
a bed of granite, flows the turbid Colorado.
Glimpses of it are seen at intervals
as it emerges from behind particularly
abrupt cliffs. It looks to be twenty
feet wide, but is 300, and in many places

i sixth as deep.
The best view of the canyon to obtain
in idea of its vastness aud its beauties of
hapes and colorings is ootained from
'tne rim. " x ou may iraverse it Dy easy
talking or a horse can be ridden up to
he brink at almo3t any point. The wall
s indented and the various points that
nt out afford opportunity for varied
riews in all directions. Some of these
joints are overhao?ing rocks from which
he walls fall away perpendicularly a good
lalf-mile. Point Bissell, the easternmost
joint that is generally visited by tourists,
s perhaps the highest and most. cornnanding.
Those who are not satisfied with viewng
the glories of the canyon from "the
ira" may go down into its depth by
lance's trail. This is seven mile3 down
o the river. Most of the way is readily
;raversed by all who are willing to enlure
the fatigue, and even burros packed
vith loads of 200 pouads each are taken
lown. But the last mile and a half is
)recipitous, and for some of the distance
ope ladders are necessary to overcome
jerpendicular cliffs. The trip down to
;he river and back cannot be made readily
in one day, and parties who undertake it
usually camp in the canyon over night.
Many women mate tne trip, very ouen

in a bloomer style of trousers, the

pie were so narrow-minded as to madly
worship a black bull. There was some
discrimination, however, even in this
form of worship. In order to be an object
of mad adoration it wa9 necessary
that the bail calf be born with a circular
white spot in the exact center of his forehead,
and the advent of such a creature
in any herd was a signal for wild demonstrations
from the Mediterranean to the
borders of the Lybian Desert. Even as
late as the time of Cleopatra, "star-eyed
goddess, glorious sorceress of the Nile,"
such animals were shod with gold and
bad their horns tipped with the same

Cost of Paper Money.
At the request of Senator PefTer the
exact cost of making paper money ha3
recently been carefuliy figured out at the
Treasury Department. The calculation
is based on the actual cost of printing
for ten mouths, the cost of paper, the
clerical labor of handling, and the expressage
to the points of issue. The coft
per no'ce amounts to 1.56 cents. The
notes average a value of $4.50, making
the cost 3.2 mills on the dollar.?New

Derivation of ''Dollar"
Few persons have ever troubled themselves
to think of the derivation of the
word dollar. It is from the Germau
thai (valley) and cam# into use in this
way some 300 years ago. Tnere is a little
silver-mining city or district in northern
Bohemia called Joachimsthal, or
Joachim's Valley. The reigning Duke
of the region authorized this city in the
sixteenth century to coin a silver piece
which was called "Joachirathaler." The
word "joac'aim" was soon dropped, and
the name "thaler" only retained. The
infn rronorii 1 nap in Oprmfinv
yietc ?cu? in h j
and Denmark, where the orthography
was changed to "daler," whence it came
into English, and was adopted by the
Americans with still fuither changes in
the spelling. The Mexican dollar is
generally called "piastre" in Prance, and
the name is sometimes applied to the
United States dollar. The appellation
is incorrect in either case, for the word
piaster or piastre has for the last fifty
years been only applied with correctness
to a small silver coin used in Turke y or
Egypt, which is tforth from live to eight
, cents .?Boston Cultivator.

tory way. If the asparagus is fresh and
fine, fifteen minutes is long enough to
boil it. When done it should be lifted
carefully, the strings removed, and the
vegetable sent to table with nicely drawn
butter served in a boat.
Apropos of asparagus, it is sometimes
painful to witness the efforts of some
people to eat this toothsome vegetable.
Those who attempt the use of knife and
fork are doomed to gastronomic disappointment.

DRIJHIS FOR HOT DATS.
During the hot summer weather, when,
the slightest amount of work throws the
body into a feverish heated state and the
feeling of thirst is sometimes increased
to an almost intolerable degree, it is an
exceedingly dangerous practice to indulge
too freely in the use of cold water.
And yet it is just the very time of all
others when we feel inclined to consume
the most, owing, probably, to the waste
caused to the system through perspiraj
tion. This waste must needs be made
up for in some way or other, but it behooves
us to be careful how we do it.
To those housewives who have to overlook
the comfort aad well being of persons
who are engaged in field work or
any kind of outside labor I should like
to say that when it is not convenient to
provide a special drink all the.evil consequences
of water drinking may be
avoided by adding about a teaspoonful
of vinegar to eve?y half pint of water.
A. well known authority on this subject
remarks that 'those who have used this
beverage have found themselves more
refreshed and less exhausted at night
than when they took apirits and water
or other like drinks." There are, however,
a large variety of summer drinks,
simple and inexpensive, which can easily
be made at home, and for the benefit ot
those who care to try them I give the
following examples:
Noctar?This is a simple, pleasant
drink, and, generally speaking, extremely
popular. Dissolve two pounds of loaf
sugar in three quarts of boiling water,
and when cool add half an ounce of tartaric
or citric acid and the strained juice
of six lemons; color according to fancy
with cochineal, saffron or burnt sugar;
3train and bottle. This beverage will
keep good three or four weeks and should
ilwavs be made a few days previous to
being required.
Lemon Syrup?Rub the rind off six
large, fre3h lemons, with a pound of fine
loaf sugar broken into small pieces;
moisten these with as much water as they
will absorb, put them into a preserving
pan and boil to a clear syrup, then add
the strained juice of twelve fresh lemons;
stir well?off the fire?for five minutes,
then pot ;n small, perfectly dry bottles,
and when quite cool cork, seal and store
in the usual manner. A small quantity
- * -- - e iJl
of this syrup put into a gias3 01 pure uttered
water immediately transforms the
latter into the most delicious lemonade.
Orange syrup is prepared exactly as
described above, only substituting oranges
for the lemons and using a smaller
proportion.
Fruit Drinks?These are delicious and
extremely refreshing, and can be very
easily manufactured. Put three large
tablespoonfuls of any favorite preserve
into a pitcher, pour over it a quart of
boiling water, leave UDtil cold, theu
strain and use. Those preserves with a
tart flavor, such a black currants, quince,
barberry, damson, etc., are the most
suitable for tnis purpose.
Cream of Tartar Drink?Put into u
large pitcher one ounce of cream of tartar,
the rind and juice of two large,
fresh lemons and four ounces of loaf
sugar; pour over these ingredients two
quarts of boiling water, stir until the
sugar dissolves, leave until quite cold,
then stir again, strain and serve.
Ginger Beer?Put into a large earthenware
pan the thin yellow rind and
strained juice of six leaions, three ounces
of bruised giqger, three pounds of loal
sugar and one ounce of cream of tartar;
pour over three gallons of boiling water,
and when just warm add three tablespoonfuls
of fresh brewer's yeast; stir the
preparation for a few minutes and then
leave it to ferment until next diy. Skim
the jeast very carefully from the surfacc,
strain the beer gently from the sediment
at the bottom and put it into propet
bottles. Cork with perfectly sound
corks, which should be dipped in ftoiimj
water immediately before usiug, secure
tightly with wire and store for three 01
four days previous to drinking.
Strawberry Water?Bruise a pound of
fresh strawberries with half a pound of
finely sifted sugar and half a pint of cold
spring water; filter this slowly through
very fine muslin, add a quart of cold
water and the strained juice of a larg{
lemon, and serve.

THE GEORGIA GOL1) FIELDS.
Continued Excitement Over New Dl??
coveriea. and TrKiinfeM of Property
of Aim oat Dal J Occurrence.
The activity in gold mining in and abont
Dahionega, Ga., noted in my last communiration,
still continues. The excitement
seems to be steadily increasing,and new discoveries
of ore, that will pay handsomely
under the new processes now being introduced,
are of almost daily occurrence. Several
new mills are already contracted for,
some are now in process of erection, and
many of the older ones are either now
being or about to be remodeled.
'I he old methods of sluicing everything,
clay-sand, slate and quartz, for treatment in
the mills, without regard to the gold bearing
qualities of thematter.are being abandoned,
and the era of intelligent ana systematic
mining, having in view the treatment in the
amis or only sucu matter as will pay richly
for handling, is being inaugurated, and the
horizon is bright with the dawn of permanent
days of prosperity in the gold fields ot
Georgia. Underground work is being vigorously
mishpri ?t a number of points on the
Great Calhoun lead, and miners who have
for years been scratching the surface, and
satisfied with the meagre returns of 13 to *5
per ton from the mixed mass of
material they have been accustomed
to handle with water, are surprised
as well as delighted to find that the thin and
I scattered quartz veins or stringers of the
surface, gradually and almost invariably
come together as depth is attained, and torm
true reefs of gold bearing quartz from two
to five feet in width ana carrying in the
deeper works the same amount of gold that
at the surface was distributed unequally
throughout the whole mass of matter sixty
or 100 feet in width.
The old Calhoun mine is about to be
opened and operated upon the modern system.
The Murry mill is nearly completed
and will soon be reducing rich ore from the
lower levels. The Bertha C. mine, tbree
miles from Dahloaega, on the famous Calhoun
lead, is preparing to begin the erection
of a twenty-ton mill, fully equipped with
every gold saving appliance and to run upon
the tiest western plan, provided with an
assay office, with an experienced miner in
charge, who will know every day what the
ore to be treated should produce, and will
Bve that the yield from the mill corresponds
with tho vamp nf the oie. One of the offi
cers of the Atlanta Gold Mining Co., operating
the Bertha C. mine, estimates the product
of the mine as follows:
BO tons per day mined and
milled, 300 days, 60,0 tons,
6000 tons, $8 per ton free gold (48,000
6000 tons, $20 per ton, refractory
ore 120,000
Total 1168,000
Less cost:
Mining 6000 tons of ore, $1
per ton $6,COO
Milling 6000 tons of ore, 60c.
per ton 3,600
Treating 600 tons concentrates,
$3 per ton 1,800
Office exp. nses, repairs to mill
and incidental exj^enses.... 5,000?16.4?
00
Net profit yearly, 20ton mill.. $151,000
This would be equal to $15 per share on
each $10 share of stock, or to the purchaser
of shares at 50 per cent, of their par value,
equal to 300 per cent, per annum on their

You're through
with Catarrh, finally and completely,

That's what is promised you, no
matter how bad your case or of now
long standing, by the proprietors of
Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
Catarrh can be cured. Not with
the poisonous, irritating snuffs and
strong, caustic solutions, that simply
palliate for a time, or perhaps, drive
the disease to the lungs?but with
Dr. Sage's Remedy.
The worst cases yield to its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing properties.
"Cold in the Head," neeai
but a few applications. Catarrhal
Headache, and all the effects of Catarrh
in the Head?such as offensive
breath, loss or impairment of
the senses of taste, smell and hearing,
watering or weak eyes?are at
once relieved and cured.
In thousands of cases, where ev- , . 'J
erything e)6e has failed, Dr. Sage's
Remedy has produced perfect and '
permanent cures. That gives its
proprietors faith to make the offer.
It's $500, or a cure. They mean
to pay you, if they can't cure you.
But they mean to curt you, and )$
they can.
