Carved by Nature.
A curious effect <;t the wear and
tear to which the earth's crust is con
tinually being subjected is shown
In the Devil's slide in I’tah and other
peculiar formations all over the west.
There exist oil the South river, in the
Wasatch mountains (a part of the
Rockiest, singularly' capped pinnacles
or slender pillars rising from 40 to 400
feet nigh and most <>t them crowned
or capped by huge stones These pil
lars are not the work of man. but are ,
memorial monuments of huge hills
from which they are cut out by the
action of the air and water and the
lone remains of many square miles of
solid rocks which have been washed
away to a depth of some 400 feet.
The greater hardness of the surface
has caused it to resist corrosion more
than the underlying rock, thus leaving
huge caps of stoue perched high in the
air on points of their columns. Here
and there can be found a double col
umn capped by a single stone, thus
forming a natural bridge both unique
and picturesque.—Health.
