BY GILBERT GROSVENOR, President, the National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C. Tho national parks of tho United States, meccas for thousands of tour ists this summer, contain more fea tures of conspicuous grandeur than aro accessible In all the oilier con tinents. Lenvlng the mnstcrful Mississippi valley nnd Journeying westward, wo soon enter the region of the national parks, of which thero nro nine of the first order: the Yellowstone nntlonal park, principally In Wyoming, the Glacier national park In Montana, the Hocky Mountain and Mesa Verde na tional parks in Colorado, tho Crater Lake national park In Oregon, tho Mount Rainier nntlonal park In Wash ington, the Yosemlte nnd Sequoia na tional parks In California and the Grand Canyon pnrk In Arizona, the scenic masterpiece of the world, of ficially dedicated in 1020. Each pnrk lias Its own Individuality, and each in Its speclnlty excels. Foremost in lntorest in tho Yellow stone are tho geysers, of which "Old Faithful" ranks first, not becnuse of size, for the Giant is a Goliath beside it; not because of beauty, for thero aro others more beautiful; but be cause of fidelity. It never disappoints. It Is so regular that It could almost serve as the nation's' standard time piece. Every 70 minutes "Old Faith ful" shoots Us great column of wntcr heavenward. At each eruption It sends up Into tho air 1,500,000 gallons of water. One writer has described the goyser basins "as laboratories and kitchens, In which, amid a thousand retorts nnd pots, wa may see Nature at work as chemist or cook, cunningly compound ing an infinite variety of mineral messes; cooking mountains, boiling and steaming flinty 'rocks to smooth paste and mush yellow, brown, red, pink, lnvender, gray and creamy white making tho most beautiful mud in the world, and distilling ,thc most ethereal essences." Glacier Park, Top of Continent. Tho sltuntlou of Glacier national park Is unique, in thnt It mothers streams which flow Into three out of five of tho earth's great oceans. It mny well claim to bo tho top of tho continent, for Its rivers drain Into Hudson bay nnd tho Arctic ocenn, In to tho Pnclfic, and through the Mis souri nnd the Mississippi Into tho Atlantic. Tho Glacier nntlonnl park wasmnde by tho earth cracklnir In somo far 'distant time nnd one side thrusting up nnd over-lapping the other. It has cliffs several thousand feet high, nnd moro than sixty glnclers feed hun dreds of lakes. One lake floats Ice bergs all summer. The scenery Is truly Alpine. Lake St. Mary's, Lake McDermott nnd Lake McDonald are the peers of any of the mountain lakes of Switzer land nnd Itnly. This park covers an area of 1,034 square miles, and main tains such an excellent chnln of chal ets, hotels and trails that tho tourist can see Its many attractions in com fort. Tho Rocky Mountain, nntlonnl park straddles tho continental divide at a lofty height, with snow-capped moun tains extending from end to end. This park Is In the heart of the Rockies northwest of Denver, with Long's peak as Its center. It wns established by congressional ennctment In lJUIi. Estes pnrk, the gateway to this moun tain playground, Is a beautiful little valley town nestled nt the foot of the ridge, and yet Itself more than a mile nnd n hnlf above sea-level. Long's peak Is nenrly threo miles high, nnd has,. several neighbors that run It a close second. Home of the Aborigines. Tho Mesa Verde national park hides In Its bnrren canyons the well-preserved ruins of a civilization which pnssed out of existence so mnny cen turies ago that not even tradition re calls Its people. Here one may study the modes of life of the prehistoric American as they can be studied In few plnces. These aborigines had their civic cen ter nnd they had some progressive tdeas in city planning. Community life wns the order of those times. One Rouse had 200 rooms for family use and 22 for worship. Another one sheltered 350 aborigines. Mount Ridnler seems to keep per- petunl guard over Senrt le, Tncoma nnd Olympla. Anyone who has be held its mnny moods, who has watched the ever-changing picture as varying lights have played upon Its summit, who has consted on Its glacial rivers, can understand why the Indians called It "Tahoma the mountain that was god." Mt. Rainier has a glacier system exceeding n size that of any other single mountain within contiuentnl United States, From Its suihmlt und cirques 28 named nnd a number of unnamed rivers of Ice pour slowly down Its sides. These rivers of lco hnve carved on what wns once n per fect cone 14 vnlleys through tho solid rock. A blrd's-eyo view taken from above the mountain would tunv It to be covered by an enormous frozen octopus, stretching Icy tentacles down among the rich gardens of wild flow ers and through ) forests of fir und cedar. Swltzorlnnd, tbe playground of Eu rope, visited nnnunlly (until 1015) by moro than 100,000 Americans, cannot compare in nttractlvcness with tho High Sierra of central California. Nothing In tho Alps can rival tho fa mous Yosemlte valley, which Is ns bnlquo ns tho Grand canyon. Tho view from the summit of Mt. Whitney sur passes that from any of the peaks of Switzerland. Wonderful Birds and Flowers. And then, ns to birds and flowers, the High Sierras so excel the Alps that there is no comparison. Never will the writer forget 'the melodies of the birds nnd tho luxurlnnco of tho mead ows passed In tho marches from Red wood Meadow to Mineral King, nnd then up over Franklin Pnss ; the Holds of blue, red, yellow, orange, white and purple flowers, nil graceful nnd fragrant, or the divine dignity of the great Siberian plateau, nenrly 11.000 feet above the Bea, and yet carpeted from end to end with blue lupine and tiny flowers. From the educatlonnl point of view, the High Sierras so surpass tho Alps that again no comparison can be mnde, In one day's ascent we observed fauna and flora to see the equivalent of which on the Atlnntlc coast we would hnve to make a Journey of perhaps 1,500 miles. When we stnrted In tho morning we were henrlng birds thnt correspond to.tho. latitude of Charles ton, S. C. ; In n few hours wo had trav eled northward to Newfoundland nnd Labrador, and then descended to camp nmld feathered friends whoso counter parts are found around tho writer's farm near Washington, D. C. 'A day later we ascended Mt. Whitney, the. highest penk In the United States, and hnd a glimpse of birds of the arctic zone. Oldest of Living Things. Within the boundaries of the Yo semlte nnd Sequoia national parks tower the oldest of living things the Sequoia glgantea. It Is an unusual experience to stand under these big trees, to gaze upon their Ktatoly proportions, ti reflect upon the storms and stress they have survived, nnd to visualize the strango changes in humnn history that havo taken place slnco they were seedlings. Long before Moses had led the Chil dren of Israel out of Egypt, long be fore Ids brethren hnd carried back to j their father Joseph's blood-stained coat of many colors, long even before J the birth of the patriarch, whose chil dren, nnd whoso children's children j to remotest generations the Most High I promised to bless, even before the I aged pyramids had reared their heads ; on tho banks of the Nile, long con ! turles before the hanging gardens of Babylon had been constructed, theso , tress had begun to grow. Thousands of years the General Sherman treo has stood, offering Its bend to every passing thunder cloud; but so strong and sturdy is It that, j like, AJax, It can defy the lightnings. The wonders of tho Yosemlte nn tlonnl park aro easily accessible via the Yosemlte valley, wherv, totomino dntions are provided for every degree of Income. Desmond camps and ex cellent government trails enable tho visitor to see tho giant trees, water wheels, nnd canyons, while the more adventurous, who des'lro to ascend Mount Lyoll nnd Its magnificent neigh bors, will find entertainment In Tuo lumne meadows, at the hospitable headquarters of tho Sierra club, an or ganization of mountaineers who have revealed the Sierra to tho world ASPIRIN Name "Bayer" on Genuine Reward Unless you see the nnme "Bayer" on package or on tablets you nro not getting genuine Aspirin pre scribed by physicians for twenty-ono yenrs nnd proved safe by millions.

What to Disordered Stomach I ICARTER'S I1TTLE IVER PULLS Genuine REALLY FLOWERS OF SPEECH Sayings, Witty and Wise, That Aro Worth Being Preserved In an Anthology, Professor Sir Arthur Qulller-Couch, In the course of his lively lectures, "On the Art of Heading," gives some examples of Irish peasants' sayings with the lnrgo simplicity, tho cadence, the accent of Scriptural speech. Tho best Is the benediction bestowed upon tine of the two uutlmrs of the Incom parable "Irish It. M." by an old wom an In Sklbbereen : "Suro ye're alwnys laughing! That ye may laugh In the sight of tho Glory of Heaven I" The writer once thought of making an an thology of such wild (lowers of way slilu speech, He would have Included In It some far-traveled sayings, such us that of the freighter In tho alkaline districts of Alberta, who said, point ing with his whip, to an Intensely blue lake on the horizon, "Hitter as a dy ing man's sweat Is that same water." and the perfect definition of a ghost implied In the words of a Newfound land fisherman, "Thero I sees 'em wnrmlng themselves In tho moon- light."
