u.l. printed: FRED \ HARVEY "PHOSTINT" \ TRADE MARK REG U. S. PAT OFF. \ MADE ONLY BY DETROIT PUBLISHING CO.
u.l. to c.l. printed: Joaquin Miller thus describes a storm in the \ Canyon which he witnessed: "The battles of the \ elements roared far below us and all the time, as \ far as the eye could reach, the white clouds curled, \ drifted, drooped, died, then rose again. The \ thunder at intervals was fearfully impressive. We \ felt at one time that the temples, towers and \ battlements of red which burst here and there \ among thunder clouds, must be crumbled into \ dust. The lightning continually wrote the auto- \ graph of God on and through the clouds at our \ feet, but when the clouds would part, all would be \ as before."
