An AtfectIug Incident.

A touching incident occurred in the
deaths of the aged people, Mr.. and Mrs.
Dickson. at Oskaloosa, Ia, last week.
For convenience in attendance during
their illness they were placed in separate
bedrooms. The heads of the beds were
placed against thin partition, which
having an open door permitted the two
old people TO converse though not able
to see each other. The night before the
husband died his wife heard him groan-
ing and was very anxious to be with
him, but was unable to arise. Soon she
was informed that he was dying, and in
order to be near him the beds were moved
so as to bring them parallel with the
partition. the heads opposite the door.
This done the fond wife reached out her
hand, graSped her husband by the hand,
and held it during his last moments.
Thus death found them, as fifty-one
years eiore the marriage ceremony left
them, Joined hand in hand. 1t was a
simple and aifectionate token OF the
love OF long life, and the day follow
ing the wife. Too. folded her arms in the
sleep of death.

Salt Lake City.

A correspondent of the Chicago Til
btrse writes: i think that the city OF
Salt Lake has the most beautiful loca-
tion of any city of the republic. The
valley proper Is about twenty miles wide
and thirty-five miles long. Upon a gen
tie eminenee near its northern portion
the city Is located. The valley
is surrounded by high mountains.
through which are several gaps,
allowing communication with the
country beyond. At the southwest
lies the great Salt Lake. The city
is some eighty miles from its shores.
The valley extends to the connection Of
the Union Pacific and Central Pacific
railways at Ogden, some thirty miles

great extent In that direction. cannot
conceive how more beautiful site for
city could have been selected. Tho
most beautiful land for miles lies all
around 1t, and inclosed by mountains
so steep, rugged and grand as to present
ms fine panorama as the eyeof man
ever gazed upon. The valley seems q
little world by itself. The city has
population of about $4,000. four-fifths
of whom are Mormons, In almost
every valley in Utah large enough to
contain settlement the Mormons have
settled n branch Of their organization

are $40 Mormon churches outside the
city itself, all acknowledging allegiance

How TO Make Home Pleasant.

Endeavor TO make your home both
attractive and comfortable. Don't be
so absorbed in business or so niserly as
to forget home comforts. Home should
be made the most attractive place on
earth, for both parents and children;
then. II their hearts are right, they will
not desert 1t for enjoyment in forbidden
places. Endeavor 10 make everything
handy convenient and in good taste.
Procure home comforts for yourself and
family. Don't be afraid of a little
amusement at home. Young people
must have it, older people need it. II
your daughters need a musical instru-
ment, try and procure one for them.
They will learn that which will in few
years tnliven your homes. and In after
life your sons and daughters homes.
Don't shut mp your house lest the sun
fade your carpets and your hearts.
Don't be afraid OF little fun at home;
