THE SHow.-By double column advertise
mentia the STANDARD this week 1t will be seen
that great show will be here on next Thursday,
July 2lst We can almost always tell when we
see the agent of a show whether the concern is
to be one-horse affair, or O genuine show.
When an agent commences trying tO get his ad-
vertsements, tavern bills, and other expenses
at half price, we almost invariably hnd that
when the show comes 1t is a small affair, and
that It's agent sent in advance, is its tfue repro
sentative But when the agent is q gentleman,
and Is wlNAng to act fairly and honorably, we
invariably find the show to be genuine affair,
and come up to what 1t is represented in the adj
vertisement. The agent of this show, who was
here last week, is gentleman of this character.
He came to contract with US for his advertise
ment. We asked him our full rates-a good
price, and he never turned werd, but at once
flled up the contract
Now o word as to the propriety Of attending
shows. Whatever may be our opinion OF
shows in general, or however urgently we might
advise people TO stay away from them, 1t is GER
tain that people tciH go to shows. We have
never thought it wrong to visit an animal show.
How can it be wrong7 And there is generally
nothing actually sinful in a circus The main
all the worst elements Of society. Every ruffian
in the country will come to a ciEcus. But then
we have seen the same class of men at Camp
Meetings, and other religious meetings. II we
were asked our opinion about the matter, we
would say, keep away from circuses. But we
know you will not take this advice.
Some three or four years ago an agent of a
circus came to our Office to get advertisement
in the paper, and he engaged us to write All cd
itoral fifty lines in length, for which we goi
pay, las we do for this one). We told him that
we must DO permitted to say just what We
pleased about his show. He said he had no OBJ
jections to that so we took up the fifty lines In
advising people not to come to the circus. Or
the day of the show we went down to get oul
pay, and there, behold, were most Of our sub
scribers. They had Rot taken our advice. We
did not expect that they would. Several of them
canio to us and said; "What! You at the cir
Gus? We thought you advised people to kseI
away, and now you are here yourself" Oul
excuse was, that we had to attend in order tC
get our pay for advertising They also had va
rious excuses. But we we're all there, excuse ol
no excuse.

Wife IN Utah; or the Mysteries and Grimes Of
Norrndntsmi being an expose Of thetr seciet rltes
Of po'ygdnly and the Mormon sect, from It's origin
to the present time " By j. II. Beddle editor Of The
Salt Lake Reporter. Published by the National
Publishing Company, Cincinnati, OHIO.
This is not q sensational work. but II Is by far
the most facinatlng book we have read for long
time. 1t deals with the strangest and most fear
ful state of morals known to the world, and fur
nishes more information upon the subject of
which it treats, than any other work in print,
The author Mr.. Beadle is well known to the
public as editor of the "SaH Lake Reporter" and
Utah correspondent of the Cincinnati CONNER
efdl." His letters from Utah were more gener-
ally read than those OF any other writer, and
fully warrant us in predicting for this elaborate
and carefully written work, a large and rapid
sale. The book is full of the most absorbing cpl
sodes and incidents of Mormon life and myste-
res as well as solid and practical information.
The high praise which it has received from a
number of members of Congress and Govern
ment officials by whom Its publication was
urged as a duty to the country, stamps 1t as one
OF the most powerful and thrilling works ever
written.
The book is handsomely illustrated and issued
in nne style. 1t full of interest to every one;
lchlultSi ulu ITO iAiuol
OF sound information, it goes deep into the mys-
terles and crimes of Mormonism. The chapters
devoted to their religion, are brilliant and start
ling and will be read with the greatest interest,
and we are very certain that the account of the
strange rites by which converts are initiated
into the Mormon faith, Is not exceeded in inter-
sstby anything we have yet seen. Itshows how
obscene and disgusting these rites are; how fe-
male modesty is outraged in them, and how
Iicentlousness Is taught as part of their rellg-
ious creed; with odd sketches of the Devil
showing the Mormon idea of Mother Ewes tenn
tation.
Every man owes 1t as duty to his country, tC
inform himself upon this great question which
must be met and settled at no distant day, ant
no better opportunity could be offered than this
book presents 1t is for sale by subscription
only, and agents are wanted in every county.

SEWING MACHINEs-There are four or hve
different kinds of sewing machines being sold in
our county, by the different agents. Each Ogent
claims special merits for the machine which he
represents. We have no doubt that oil these
machines are good ones.
Mr. James Titus, agent for the Weed Machine,
desired us to call at Sutherland's Store and ex-
anime one of his machines. We did 50, and we
are satisfied that it is one of the very best. Its
greatest merit, in our estimation, is its simplic-
ty yofconstruction. 1t can be turned up to view,
and any woman can understand its operations.
1t is not likely to get out of order 1t should,
1t could most easily be repaired. 1t does first
class work. Call and see 1t.
