Is a constant backache spoiling your
gummer? Do sharp pains stab you at
every sudden move? Are you so tired
and downhearted you can hardly keep
going? Likely your kidneys havo
slowed up, causing an accumulation of
poUotn that well kidneys would havo
filtered off. Is it any wonder you feel
so tired and depressed and have head
aches, dizzy spells and annoying blad
der irregularities? Use Doan's Kid

Urnnlto Rorgo In Grnntl Cuiiyon Nn
tloiml park I That ineana that you
and your horse can get ncross tho
Grand canyon from L'l Tovnr to the
North rl t n. And that niuan.s that
yon will get sonio entirely new vIowh
of the Grand cunyon nnd of the
aurroundliiK country. For tho North
rlui lt J.00O feet higher than tho South rim.
rrcsuinolity yon will ho able tonso this suspen
sion bridge this season. The nullonal park service
is working on the bridge nowund has been for
roini' time, llut jou can enslly guess that building
this bridge Is some considerable Job especially
If you lmvo ever traveled llrlght Angel trail, down
which nil tho materials and tools lmvo to be
packed. Anyway, here's n sample of tho ,1:1ml of
doings Unit may happen any minuto on that
futnoa.1 trail.
Homer .7. Arnn Is one of the packers engnged In
petting rtuff down Wright Angel trail. Tho other
dar Aifwna taking down a string of animals. Sov
crol of them were loaded with TNT for blasting.
At one of the Midden turns one of tho pack anlmnls
llppotl. Th? rest got excited. Pretty soon ono
animal went off the trail. All eluven In tho string
tvero tlcir together, m-foro long two more were
drugged off tho trail. About this tlmo Arnn suc
ceeded In getting Into tho middle of tho mlxtip.
lie cut tho other eight animals looso and they
vtittd on the trail.
' Of course all three of the anlmnls that fell olt
were UlJeiL One fell I.OOOeet without Injuring
his pack- Ono fell 200 feet without exploding
the 150 pounds of TNT In his pack. And that's
what getting tho bridge stuff down Bright Angel
trull Is like.
A. look ut tho map gives the lay of tho land,
llrlght Angel trail begins near 121 Tovnr on tho
South rim nud winds down to tho Colorado at
the bottom of Granlto gorge. Ilormlt trail begins
farther to tho west untl also goes down to tho
river. Port of tho way down, tho Ton to trail,
running east nud west, connects Hermit and
llrlght Angel trails.
At the foot of llrlght Angel trail there is nn
aerial cabletram, which Is used to ferry across
venturesome visitors, Thu cross marks tho slto
nf the suspension bridge. Tho now trail will run
cortb along Bright Angel crock. Tho visitor will
ascend to the North rim ut llrlght Angel point.
II Ix 10 miles across tho Grand canyon here.
The descent from El Tovur to tho river Is nbout
,W feet. The North river Is about 0,000 feet
bove tho floor of the Grand canyon.
The vlow from tho North rhn Is radically dlirer- i
n. Tho temples lie In Its foreground. Ono looks J
down upon them at close range. Tho Granlto
gorge is miles In tho background, nnd tho oppatlto
rim presents nn apparently straight wall. Tho ob
server Is twelve or fifteen hundred feet higher
thun tho south rim and noes over It thu denert '
plain for ninny miles south, with a' fur horizon
of distant mountains. Many who have seen hoth
prefer the south rim lcv, which has the temptes
lu broad perspettlvo and confines tho eyo to tho
xpectucle of the canyon. Other prefer the north
rim tocausc of Its closeness to the temples am) Us
srnup of distant liorl.uns. In tjio future thotisr.nds
t travelers will not be content until they see Uio
canyon from boih rims.
Jlulhllng the suspension bridge, onco thu ma
terial Is on the spot, will not bo dllllcult. The
worst of the Job Is getting tho btuft to the slto
tin niulo-tiuck. The material for tho bridge will
consist principally of steel wire, hovon-olgliths and
three-eighths of an liu'h lopi-etlvoly lu diameter',
lenvy wooden timbers, strips' of flooring of nine
foot length ami tools and blasting powder. The
matter of getting Uio long cables down Is going to
icqulro thu Immersing of at leust four luulus tun
rtcui nn(l Htrlnuliig of tho load betweon them. The
iitnln cables will wolgh between 700 nnd bOO
IHiuuds apiece. A cable will bo gathered Into sev
TI colls, with about twenty to ililriy feet of
lacU between oach coll, Those colled edition will
Ibrti be put on mules, u coll to each.
At tho bridge site u auchor of steel rails and
roucrctc will bo constructed In lho solid rock.
The upper cilblos will then be carried across to tho
north Hide nud secured In llko fashion, ' From end
is id these upper cables will meafciiro about 000
fret, Eighty feet below them tho lloor of the
fcridgo will bo anehoreil to tho walls of tho gorge.
J'rom the overhead cables "side cables will como
down and run through tho heavy timbers. The
nfno-foot planking will be riveted to those rafters
and n hog mesh wiring will bo strung ulong either
ldo of the bridge to protect tourists. Tho bridge

Grand Canyon Nntlonal pnrk was established
In 11)10 nnd was dedicated In 1020. Tho suspen
sion bridge Is but one of mnny Improvements
planned by tho national park service. Concerning
tho suspension bridge nnd other things Director
Stephep T. Mather says, In part:
"Tho park Is both a summer and winter resort.
Though thus far developed by prlvafo capital, tho
results generally have been nchloved with refine
ment nnd success. Tho character of existing build
ings Is commendable, nnd, although considerable
adjustment will havo to bo done In tho location of
certain futuro buildings, this can rendlly he ef
fected. Our landscape engineer hns studied tho
futuro layout of nil buildings, and construction
for both tho public operators nnd tho pnrk ad
ministration will proceed ulong wcll-lald-out lines.
"Although the first appropriation wns not largo
for the amount of work to bo done, since It
amounted to only 10,000, theso funds wero care
fully distributed nnd sonio Improvements iiccom
pllshod. In pnrt theso consisted in tho construction
of a Btuiilo nnd garngo building, of n mess house,
ranger quarters, which are being temporarily used
for administrative otllces, and Improvements to a
log cnbln now being utilized by tho acting super
intendent as a. resldcnco. Theso are nil at the
Grand canyon administrative slto. Itangor nnd
construction nnd maintenance" forces have been
established, and there Is at this wrltlug n com
petent nucleus for carrying on nil the park work
under present conditions. Tho appropriation of
$00,000 for tho present fiscal year enabled mo to
plan 'somewhat more extensively for actual im
provements. "Ono Important piece of construction la n sus
pension bridge across the Colorado river at tho
foot of tho south-sldu llrlght Angel trail to connect
with the north-sldo Bright Angel trail. At pres
ent tho only method of crossing Is In a small
swinging en go traveling over a binall cable, which
only tho most venturesome persons euro to uso;
un'.muls cannot be transported. Without some
means of animal travel from tho south to the north
sldo of tho park It will be dllllcult to administer
the north rlm or provide for Its proper develop
ment and uso by park visitors.
"Tho north rlm, which Is, from my own observn
Ion this summer, moro beautiful than the south
rlm. Is practically undeveloped by roads nnd trails.
As soon as this first suspension bridge 13 com
pleted ncrostf tho Colorado river It Is planned to
reconstruct n portion of tho Bright Angel trail
on the north sldo of the river, which will innko
tho north rlm easily accessible." Later another
bridge across the Colorado will bo constructed
near the foot of the Hermit trail, which lu turn
Is to be connected by a trail to tho north rlm as a
part of the trail development planned on the nortlr
side of the park; also nn nddltlonal bridge bhonle
be placed In the vicinity of the preseut Bass cable
way (about 8 miles to tho west). I predict north
and south rim travel will constitute- the most In
teresting nnd popular of all our scenic park trips.
"With tho construction of theo bridges travel
between tho north and south rlm will cause tho
establishment of Uddltlonnl cntups. One of those
camps hhould bo located at homo coincident phtco
on tho trail, which will bo constructed from tho
Hermit suspension bridge through to the Plateau
trail, and as near tho north rlm ns It will bo pos
sible to tecuro water. Expansions Into the Indian
Gardens camping area ure planned for the Im
mediate future. Those cumps will In ft vrny sup
plement the El Tovur hotel nnd the Hermit camp
on tho BouUi hide, and also tho present Wyllo es
tablishment on the north rlm. Tho lnllux of tour
lsta curries with It nn Increased demund for camp
ing ppnee, and also Inrgor hotel facilities, and, us
quickly ns this demund Is recognized, tho fucllltlw
will bo expanded.
"Our most Important present rond project at
tho canyon undoubtedly Is the rcpavement of tho
Him road. Only horso travel was permitted on
thix road; I directed the opening of the road to
motor travel, and tho public traiispoHatlon serv
ice was changed from horso to motor-propelled
vehicles. Since then the rond has suffered 11 great
deal from the heavy trnvel over It. Eight miles
in length, It was paved In 1013 by tho Santa Fe
railroad In order that nn attractive trip might bo
available for winter visitors. It was practically
worn out when taken over by us, and Is only
single width nnd not adapted to two-way travel.
"I have also submitted an estlmnto to commenco
tho construction of n rlm road eastward from El
Tovnr toward Desert Vlow. Upon Its completion,
within two or three years, we will hnvc u rlm
rood drive from Hermit Best on the west of olllclnl
headquarters to Desert View, n distance of over
10 miles. For scenic beauty It will challenge com
parison. "Tho estimates also Include nn Item for secur
. lng n right of way for the EI Tovnr-Dcsert Vlow
Win rond. I hope this expenditure of government
funds will not be necessary, us I feel that the priv
ate holdings which will be crossed by the pro
posed road will be sulllclcntly benefited by Its
construction to mnke It to the advnntngo of tho
owners of these kinds to donate a right of way.
I feel sure theso owners are so public spirited as
to tuko this point of vlow, and that In donating
this right of way they are not only benefiting Uieiu
selves nnd Grand Canyon park but also the people
who visit tho park.
"In addition to tho Improvement and mainte
nance work on tho 111m road and other upkeep
work on tho other park roads, Uio presents El
Tovnr-Dosert View road has been widened,
straightened, nnd reshaped for about one-hnlf Its,
entire length. Many dangerous curves and grades
liavo been eliminated and tho general condition
of tho road linproved.
"A complete telephono system which will con
nect tho north nnd south rlm of the canyon nnd
tho ranger stations that will be built for tho
ranger force Is ono of our future needs. This can
be postponed until next year, und I havo not In
cluded It In my estimates to congress. It may be
practicable to connect the uorth and south rims
by wireless, either telephono or telegraph, and
this question Is receiving careful study.
"There ure some developments planned by tho
Santa Fo railroad In Grand canyon, one of which
Is the construction of n water system which will
probubly have for Its source Bright Angel creek
on the north side of (ho river, and possibly the
establishment of a small power plant on that
creek. The establishment of nn adequate water
supply for the south rlm of the cunyon Is n serious
problem nnd on that must 9on bo definitely
.solved. Wuter on tho north rlm near Bright Angel
Point Is secured nt present from several small
springs, Unit with little Improvement will probably
be ndequnte lu quantity and quality. On the
south rlm of the cunyon, however, the hotel and
railroad havo to haul their water by train from
Del Wo, about 1L'5 miles distant. Every gallon of
water has to come that distance. Tho tremendous
dally cost of this Is nt once apparent, and the
great desirability of Installing kouio system by
which wuter can bo pumped either from the lloor
of the canyon, about 1 mile below the surface of
the rlm. or from elsewhere Is obvious. It Is ap
parent that travel may f-ometlnio reach n point I
where with tho present method of securing water
wo will not be able to securo a sulllclent quantity
vtf that precious fluid to supply each traveler. 1
"Thu organic act creating this park nuthorlzei
us to negotiate with tho county of Coconino for!
the purchase of Its rights In tho Bright Angel toll
toad and trail, and to report to congress the tonus
upon which this property can be secured. An ef
fort hns been made the pnst year to arrive at some
satisfactory birsls of settlement with tho county of
Coconino for tho transfer of tho Bright Angel
trail, but thus fur without dellnlto results. Our ,
engineer department has, howovor, made prelim
inary examination of the situation, covering in
fact tho entire trail situation lu the pnrk. '
"Probably the greatest problem confronting the J
service upon Its tuklng over tho administration
of tho park was the existence of the many claims
of nlleged mineral value. Among these wero the
claims located by Ralph II. Cameron, which hnvo
been In lltlgntlou for several years. Twenty-threo
Cameron Claims, hnvo been declared Invalid: Gob

Tommle returned home, disgusted

A Salt Lake In Miniature.
About -10 miles south of Zunl, N. M.,
there Is a singular depression, In a
plain of Cretoceous sandstones, nbout

shallow lake, 4,000 feet long by 3,000
broad, tho wnters of which contain 20
per cent of salt.
This has been a source of supply
of salt used by Indlnns nnd Mexlcnns
for centuries, nnd lately the salt has
been hauled to surrounding ranches,
