Michigan Pictured Rocks
The cliffs do not form straight lines, but rather arcs of circles, the space between the projecting points having been worn out in symmetrical curves, some of which are of large dimensions. To one of the grandest and most regularly formed we have gave the name of The Amphitheatre.' Looking to the west, another projecting. point, its base worn into cave like forms and a por tion of the concave surface of the intervening space are seen ' "It is in this last mentioned portion'of the series" that the phenomena's of colors are most beautifully and conspicuously displayed. These cannot be illustrated by a mere crayon sketch, but would require, to reproduce the natural effect, an elaborate drawing on a large scale, in which the various com-
binations of color should be carefully represented.
