make powerful appeal to our sex."
And certainly history supports this rather
unconventional view, for the many of the
plainest men of whom we have any record
have not only won pretty and well dowered
brides, but have been able to pick and
choose among the fairest, to the confusion
of their more well favored rivals.
Was there ever a plainer wooer, we won
der, than John Wilkes, the famous cham
pion of popular liberties and one of the
most dissolute roues of his day? So ugly
was Wilkes that the very children ran
away shrieking at sight of him- In the
streets, and yet such was the spell he cast
over women that "ladles of beauty and
fashion vied with each other for his notice,
while men of handsome exterior and all
courtly graces looked enviously and lm
potently on."
"Give me a quarter of an hour's start,"
he used to boast, "and I will win any lady's
hand against the handsomest man In Eng
land." And he could have done It too.
There were few beauties, however fair or
highly placed, whose hands could not have
been his for the asking, and in the very
early '20s -he won for hi wife one of the
loveliest heiresses of the time, a lady who
refused more than one coronet to be his
bride.
" 'Beauty and the Beast' they call us."
Wilkes onco said to a friend, "and really
I cannot find fault with the description."
Brougham, the (feat lord chancellor, was
a man of almost ropellant ugliness, with
out a solitary compensating grace or man
ner. Conscious of his unattractiveness he
shunned ladles' society as he might have
shunned the plague. And what was the re
sult? The ladles, the most lovely and
aristocratic In the land, simply mobbed the
"ugly lawyer," and were as proud to win
a smile from him as an offer of a coronet
from any other man.
When any one asked, "Where is Brou
gham?" the Invariable answer was, "Where
the ladles are thickest." And, sure enough,
there he was; and the more he repelled his
fair persecutors, the more they clustered
round him.
Another famous "lady killer" was Jean
Paul Marat, one of the leading and most
Infamous figures in the French revolution.
"Beyond any question," wrote a contem
porary, "M. Marat is the ugliest man In
tho whole of France and not merely ugly
but positively repulsive in person, habits
and mannerrt."
And yet In his early years lie was be
yond rivalry the most popular physician
in Paris. Ills consulting rooms were
crowded dally by the loveliest women in
the French capital, pushing and poRtllng
to get a word with or perhaps win a smile
from lilm. That he turned a deaf car and
told nhoulder to thflr allurements only
ttln.ul.'iti.l their ardor, until their ptten
tloi.u became so embarrassing that at one
time ho seriously meditated flight.
Even when he contracted a loathsome
i skin disease while hiding In the sowera of
Paris, he was devotedly nursed by one of
the loveliest of his many admirers, whom
he "marrK'd one fine day in the presence
of the sun."
if possible a still more repulsive man was
Potemkln, the former private soldier who
enslaved the fancy of Catherine the Great
and by lier favor was made virtually czar
of KuRhla. "Jireadful and repulsive," was
the description of l.lm by one who knew
him. "He has an unwieldy figure and
knorkkiires. Is swarthy of skin, coarse In
feature and has lost one eye. He often
passes whole days In his room half dressed,
uncombed, unwashed, biting lls nails and
scratching Ills untidy head." And yet,
nays lmiand, "tho empress Is quite crazy
over Mini, as is proved by her passionate
UtttiH, in which she addresses him as 'my
loivd,' 'my king,' 'my Inestimable .treaa
ure." "
But perhaps the most remarkable of all
these eases of woman's lnf:ituatlon for
ugly men was that of W. Hamilton, a
Scotsman of a century and a half ago
Hamilton was not only preternaturally
ugly but lie was terribly deformed. "His
le;ti," we are told, "were drawn up lo hlJ
ears, his arms were twisted backward, and
almost every member was out of lolnt."
In spite of these terrible physical diaw
bucks Hamilton easily outstripped all the
gallant In his district In tho favor of tho
ladies. "He mliiht have married any of
them for the asking indeed It I raid sev
eral of them actually asked lilm," Hays a
chronicler. "But he remained proof against
all their wiles until after 111 eightieth
birthday, and then he married a girl of 21,
lilmktlf being carried to the altar on men's
shouluers." London Tlt-Ult.

UTAH'S NATURAL BRIDGES
Surpassing Size and Grandeur of
Arches Kecently Discovered.
RANK AS WORLD WONDERS
How Urologists Arrnant for the
Processes br Which the A roll I
teetvre of the Klementn
Was Fashioned.
We used to be much Interested in the de
scriptions and llustratlons In our readers
and geographies of the Natural bridge of
Virginia. People travel from all parts of
the world to behold this strange natural
phenomenon and enjoy the picturesque
scenery of the Appalachian mountains, and
feel well paid for their effort. But Utah
is the home of really great natural bridges.
It astonishes us with not mtrely one, but
half a dorent any one of which surpasses
the Virginia structure In grandeur and
beauty. The three remarkable bridges
the Edwin, the Carolyn and the Augusta
which were discovered In Utah several
years ago, are now eclipsed by another
more marvelous structure in the same
state.
Overlying the southeastern part of Utah
aro the "red beds" strata of red and yel
low oandstone hundreds of feet thlek. For
the most part this formation rests in a
horizontal position; but In places sections
Ho tipped at an angle of. forty-five de
giees and n ore, and great faults have oc
curred. Ages ago this entire region was
pushed upward until It checked and
cracked In xlgzag lines away from the
mountain that were formed by the ma
terial from beneath being forced upward
through the superincumbent aandstone.
Thus came Into being the La Sals, the
Abahos, the Bear's Ears, Navajo mountain
and the trany deep canons radiating from
them.
This process of elevation was a gradual
one,v and, as the waters from the moun
tains sought a lower level, they took their
courses through these Irregular cracks and
tieapis, searching for the ocean, which was
then not far away. Their rushing currents
and surging eddlfs wore off the sharp cor
ners, sought out the soft places In the
yielding sandstone, digging out deep cav
erns and recesres In the cliffs, and left
behind them a series of graceful curves and
fantastic form that amaze and delight the
traveler nt every turn. As the formation
was pushed upward from time to time,
these rushing torrents kept on with their
work of smoothing, cutting and filling un
til they have produced the deep box
canons so prevalent In this section. Some
times they widen out into small valleys
of rich alluvial deposits and again narrow
down to a mere slit between huge masses
of cliffs.
Nature as a llallder.
This elevation and opening of the for
mation often left a narrow point of the
cliff extending outward for rods around
which the stream had to make its way as
it rushed onward in its course. The con
stant surging of the waters against the
barrier often found a soft place In the sand
atone, where it helped to eat out a half
dome-shaped cave. In a few instances, as
the water swirled around the other aide of
this barrier, they found a similarly ,soft
place opposite the former and ground out
a similar half dome on that side. When in
the course of time the backs of these two
semicircular cave came together, the
waters found a shorter course through that
opening and quickly enlarged the archway
and smoothed off and rounded Into graceful
curve the sides of the massive buttresses.
Thus a bridge was formed and became a
mighty span of enduring rock whose
foundations and graceful superstructure
were laid by the ages. ,
West of the Bears Ears In White Canon
and its tributary, the Armstrong, are three
large bridges that have thus been carved
out of the sandstone by the forces of na
ture. A short distance off from the old
"Mormon trail" to Dandy crossing, on the
Colorado, In Arnfstrong canon, Is found
the Edwin or Little bridge. It is a grace
ful structure having a span of 194 feet
and an elevation of 108 feet. The top of
the bridge is thirty-five feet wide, while
the arch in the center Is only ten feet
thick. Thus these proportions give an im
pression of lightness that is very pleasing
to the eye. Round about are domes and
turrets fashioned by the same forces that
produced the graceful lines and curves of
tho bridge, and nestling In a cave worn In
the sunny side of the clli'f near one end Is
a deserted cliff dweller' village.
Passing on down Armstrong canyon
about three miles you find your way al
most blocked by a projecting cliff that
towers above you In amazing proportion.
On the right and on the left similar cliffs
seem to be elbowing you out of the way.
At the right, however, you notice that the
barrier has been worn away, but this Is
many feet above where you now stand and
plainly marks the course of a mighty
stream that once forced its way among the
cliffs.
Continuing on down the bed of the present-day
stream, now nearly dry, you find
a few rods farther on that you have
reached the end of Armstrong canyon and
stand in .the shadow of a vast archway
which the waters of White Canyon have
cut through thi barrier that Just now
seemed to block the course of the Arm
etrong. This is the Carolyn bridge, a mas
sive archway carved out of the same red
sandstone formation and still showing the
unfinished work of the artisan in the sharp
corners and broken lines of the arch and
buttresses. Nature has not yet given the
finishing touches to Its work, but wind and
storm, and driving sand will continue to
chisel and polish until the lines are ail
graceful curves, adding greater beauty to
this the most ma-slve of the bridges.
The span is W feet wide and from the
top of the bridge to the bottom of the
gorgo 1h 205 feet. - The roadway Is forty
nine feet wide and the arch 107 feet thick
in the narrowest part, giving such an 'im
pression of massive strength and solidity
that one marvels at the mighty power of
nature's work.
Turning to the right underneath this arch
and passing up White canyon, winding in
and out between lofty cliffs that send out
their towers and battlement j, and In the
hollows of whose seamed and scarred sides
are sten the abandoned homes, fortifica
tions and granaries of an ancient popula
tion, after a walk of two and a half miles
you stand under the area of another of na
ture's wonders, known as the Augusta
brldg?. It rises before you in graceful
proportion 222 feet high and 2C1 feet between
the abutmenta. The mnjestlo arch is ex
ceedingly regular, entirely spans the can
yon and you can hardly realize that It has
not been designedly placed there as n
bridge. The thickness of the stone arch is
sixty-five feet and the roadway Is twenty
eight feet wide.
The Augusta, therefore. Is the queen of
the White Canyon bridges. It combine
masnivene-s with gracefulness of pro-portions
to an extent that gives an altogether
l pleasing and satisfying 'effect. Sitting
within its shadow and gazing up at the
mighty arch above, you woider how many
age it ha taken to fashion such a mag
nificent .piece of work. You climb to the
ollff abov and watch th play of sunshine
and shades upon the rich reds and light
browns of the sandstone that form Its
arch and buttresses and comprehend the
gracefulness of Its outlines and propor
tions as a whole, and you seem unable to
tear yourself aiway from the spell of Its
might and beauty. You feel you would like
to take up your abode In one of the ancient
cliff dwellings near by and become a child
of nature again.
Sarareat Not Found.
By going down the San Juan river from
Bluff twenty-five miles to the new oil
town of Goodrldge and crossing the river
over the new steel bridge now nearly com
pleted, and then taking a southwesterly
course of about fifty miles across the
country, one may visit the recrntly dis
covered natural bridge known to the In
diana as Nonnezosh! (the stone arch).
This Is the largest natural arch yet found
and measures 308 feet In height and 275
feet between the abutments. It extends
from a bench on one side across into a
cliff on the other and hence spans the
canon in which it Is found. This canon,
called by the Indian Nonnesonhlboko, ex
tends from the slopes of Navajo mountain
northwest and Joins the Colorado river a
few miles below the mouth of the San
Juan. It is a deep, Irregular gorge, in
places so narrow that one has to walk in
the stream to make his way along Its
course. The arch Is situated about six
miles dhove the mouth of the gorge In an
exceedingly picturesque and beautiful part
of the canon.
Thin region formerly belonged to the Nav
ajo reservation, then was segregated and
held open to entry for a time, and now Is
Included In that part of Utah recently
set aside as a reservation for the Pahutes.
It Is seamed by deep gorges extending
north and northwest toward the San Juan
and the Colorado and broken toy high
cliffs and stretches of smooth, steep sand
stone, so that It is almost impenetrable.
Few even of the Indians are well ac
quainted with this region. It Is celebrated
as the place where Hoskinlml, one of the
most reserved leaders among the Navajo,
successfully evaded Kit Carson in 18,
when the latter taught the Navajo such a
terrible lesson; but not. even Hosklnlmi
seems to have penetrated as far as the
Nonnezosh I. The members of the Utah
Archaeological expedition and of the sur
veying party of the United States General
Land office, who visited the bridge to
gether August 14, 1909, are evidently the
first white men to have seen this greatest
of nature's stone bridges.
Myatle KIlna; Buttress.
This remarkable freak in the earth's crust
is hardly a bridge in the true sense of the
term, but is more properly an enormous
flying buttress that has been chiselled out
by the ages and left as a specimen of the
handiwork of the Master Builder. The
surface formation of this section Is the
same thick bed of red and yellow sand
stone found in the region of White Canon,
and Nonnezoshl has been cut out of the
cliff in the Same manntr that the White
Canon bridges were formed. It is a grace
ful arch looked at from any position, and
is only about twenty feet thick In the nar
rowest part.
This slender arm of the cliff stretches
out across the canon like a rainbow. In
Its shadow on the bench at one side are
the remains of what was probably an an
cient fire shrine. One can easily imagine
a group of cliff dwellers gathered around
the sacred fire with offerings to the Sun
Father and tho Earth Mother. The Pa
hutes look upon it with awe, and Mr. C. A.
Colvllle, who took a party there in No
vember, tells us that their Pahute guide,
Whitehorsebiga, would not pass beneath
the arch because he had forgotten ' the
prayer that must be said before doing so.
On the slopes of Navajo mountain you
pass two smaller arches that would each
be an attraction by Itself were they not
overshadowed by the grander Nonnezoshl.

Since the days of our cuva-d willing an

been eating, for tho most part, tho flesli
and fats of animals, whilo In sun-klssoit
tropics the natives have been thriving and
finding life one lazy, yawning dream, or
dering from a table d'hote menu of fruit
and nuts. For a lopg time scientists and
thinkers have been pondering over this
truth, and recently, with the prices of tho
necessaries of lifo climbing higher and
higher dnlly, tliero has been an effort to
modify the present schemo of things by
Bubstltutlntr for a meat diet products
equally sustaining that are right at hand,
supplied by Mother Nature.
in this search for cheaper living Amer
ica is learning much from Europe, where
overcrowded cities have made the lilsh
cost of living an old. old story, has Just

celved hero with great enthusiasm.
Tho Innovation will mean a merry war
between the docile cow and tho humble
cocoanut for supremacy, for it is nothing
loss than a substltuto for high-priced but
ter and lard in tho shape of an edtbl
fat made from the natural oil of nuts. It
the hopes of a company which has started
the exploiting of tho new butter substltuto
in America aro realized, the strangle hold
which the beef trust now has on the people
of tills country will bo speedily loosened.
Tho now butter mcy prove to bo one of the
st'ccessful answers to luxuriant living at a
low cost.
Nut butter, wlich Is made principally
from cocoanuts, has the appearanco of
lard and Is tasteless and odorless. Somo
of the virtues claimed for It are that it
is absolutely pure where butter is adul
terated with 15 per cent of water and salt.
Cocoanut butter Is said to be easily as
similated by the weakest stomach and can
bo sold at J. profit for less than 15 cents a
pound.
The men who are trying to educate the
American public and spread broadcast tho
value of the new product have all kinds
of arguments to offer. They point to tho
fact that today 6,000,000 more persons are
subsisting on nuts, seeds and fruits in
India, China and the islands of tho sea
than in the meat eating zones. This ar
gument is used to prove the wholosomennss
of the nut butter. The new rival of the cow
has already made Itself thoroughly at
home in America. Much more so than the
average American realizes. It is not gen
erally known that a factory with a pro
