rock studies and geological problems were many and deeply in-

To one tired of work in the school-room and city, and wish- 
ing for mental rest and change, yet not freedom from all 
occupation, but employment in some new direction, often the 
est of recreation, such spots can be highly recommended. 
Physically, the work can be made as hard as is wanted for the

To reach this region, a steamboat was taken at Chicago which, 
three days afterward, landed me at Escanaba, the principal ship- 
ping port for iron on Lake Michigan. It was long enough be- 
fore sunset on a July day to get quarters ina hotel and take a

would have been puzzled to tell the difference of location, when — 
permitted to see it. There was less variety, something to be ex- :
