Government documents are not usu-
aly sought for light reading. But one
has been issued hy the Department
of the Interior that can be commended
to any family. "Glimpses of Our Na-
tional Parks" is a pamphlet of forty-
eight pages, amply and beautifully
illustrated from photographs.
It isn't necessary to plan a summer
vacation in one of tiie national parks'
to find this book of unusual interest.
You read there of Mount Ranier, down
whose sides flow twenty-eight glaciers
of the Tuolumne River, which spouts
wheels of water fifty feet into the air;
of tiie 12,000 sequoia trees more than
ten feet in diameter in the Sequoia
National Park; of the cliff thousands
of feet high, and the sixty glaciers in
Glacier National Park; of the rulna of
ancient civilization in Meat Verde Na
tional Park; and of the story of the
ice age written in tihe cliffs and term-
inal moraines of the Rocky Mountain
Park in Colorado.
All sorts of interesting information
is set forth in the pamphlet. You may
learn of the impressive age of the se-
quoias, on the stump of one of which
John Muir counted more than four
thouaand rings, showing that it was
a thriving tree at the time of the
Pharaoha. There are other treea that
were flourishing when Plato wrote
and tens of thouusands go back be-
yond the birth of Christ.
If you are interested in glaciers you
may discover how the> are formed—
those twenty eight rivers of ice that
flow down the sides of Mount Ranier.
Every winter the moisture-laden winds
from ihe Pacific suddenly cool against
the mountains summit and leave there
enormous masses of snow. These set-
tle in titie mile wide crater that was
left after an explosion in prehistoric
times carried away two thousand feet
of the volcano's former height Under
the pressure of the snow masses of
Icc formed and crowded out in sthape
of glaciers. Some of them are more
than a thousand feet thick.
A chapter is devoted to the fascinat-
ing subject of the cliff dwellers in the
Mesa Verde, that ancient table land,
fifteen miles jong by eight wide, set
upon the arid plain with its green cov-
ering of stunted cedars and pinon
trees. Only last summer an archaeo-
logist discovered that the remains of
the temple of the sun.
There are fourteen of these parks
described in the book- and they have
an area of 4,666,000 acres almost the
same as that of the state of New
Jersey. The government hopes that
they will develop into the great play-
grounds of the country. It is promot-
ing this development by supplying in-
formation about traveling and living
expenses in separate bulletins. Any-
one desiring information about any
particular park may ofttain It free "by
merely writing to the Secretary of the
Interior for the general information
bulletin about that park.

her tobacco and always has money in
her own tobacco box; she is a miser,
and carries several hundred dollars in
gold coins about her person, and she
has so many hiding places for money
that she does not remember where
they are."
These are a few of the allegations
made by Frank Mayberry in an answer
Friday to the petition of ibis wife,
Martha Mayberry, for a divorce. The
husband also filed a cross-petition,
asking the court to grant him a di-
vorce on the ground of extreme cru-
elty.'
"I have done everything in my power
to bring peace, happiness and content-
ment to our home," tihe husband says.
"I have saved every dollar to provide
for the necessities. Since our mar-
riage in September, 1913, I have not
even bought a new suit or a new hat.
Notw'thstanding my efTort, my wife
ihas gone about with other persons
and has attempted to lay plots so she
could manufacture evidence against me
and obtain a divorce and my property.
"My wife is of an extremely jealous
disposition. When I would go to town,
although clad in my clothes of remote
| years, and return, wearing a new 25-
cent tie, she would accuse me of asso-
ciating witih bad women.
The husband seeks a divorce and an
equal division of property.

Sun ot' Rich Canadian Turned on the
Ctas In Detroit.
From the Detroit Journal.
His funds gone room rent two weeks
In arrears, peauuts his only food for
two days, an appeal to his fiancee for
a small loan unsuccessful and too
proud to appeal to hie father, a wealthy
druggist at Halifax Novia Scotia, Albert
H. Buckley, jr. 19 years old killed
himself with gas in the park hotel.
The boy's death revealed the old
story of the love of the scion of a
wealthy family for a maiden of a poor
family A letter from his fiancee, ex-
plaining her Inability to send him
money and slLg.htly rebuking him by
asserting that her family was as good
as his own, were found in his room.
How the youth had come to Detroit,
hoping to make his way in the world
by learning to be a "movie" operator,
and marry the girl he loved despite his
parents' objection to the union, only
to fall when his money gave out and
his efTorts seemed baffled at every turn
is the story of the suicide.
He had been here five weeks, evi-
dently without his parents knowledge,
for he received no mail from them, his
only letters being from his sweet-
heart, "Winnie.' Through her word
was sent to the boy's parents and they
came to Michigan to take the hody of
their son home for burial.
How deeply in love he was and how
distracted at his predicament was
shown by a reply to a letter he had
written to the "personal service" de-
partment of a home magazine, asking
advice. ^
The reply was written, but he never
saw It, the letter reaching Detroit the
day of the suicide. The author advised
him against marrying the girl against
his parents' wishes. "From the tone of
your letter," it read. "1 take It you
are both young and it would do no
harm io wait several years until you
have had more experience in the
world."
Buckley learned to operate a picture
machine and got a job, but after three
days had to quit because he didn't have
the money to join the union, he told
the hotel keeper.
"He was Just a 'green' lad, unfamil-
iar with the ways of the big American
city," said Mrs. George Ferguson, wife
of the proprietor of the hotel where
young Buckley roomed. "Things he
saw and heard here that amused him
he talked about continually, showing
that he had never encountered them
before. He was a boy of clean habits
and If he had just a little bit of luck
he would have made good."
