Advice TO a Young Man.

My son, enjoy yourself. Have good
time; pleasure is eminently right and
proper, but good time isn't secured by
a headache that lasts all the next day,
The simplest pleasures are the most last
ing. After you have spent two years in
Europe, you will come back and sit
down by your old fireside and think OF
a picnicyou went to down at the Cascade
one afterRoon in June, cost you sixty
five cents. The good times" that you
darn't take your wife to, my son, that
you would lie about rather than have
your sister know about them, the good
ness Of them never comes back to re-
fresh you, and gladden. your heart as
does the memeory of that sixty-five cent
picnic, when you chartered nonsense
with the girl you loved, and laughed
Just as the leaves rustled, because you
couldn't help it. The good time" that
wakes in the morning and wonders
where it was, and who saw it, and
where all the money is gone; the good
time that tails off with headache,
there's precious little fun in that. And
it only takes very little bitterness of
that kind to poison and cloud the men,
ories of the past. 1t doesn't take much
of such good times" my boy, to mingie
tears with your bread, and gall with
your drink. The sting is the smallest
part of the bee, but when you pick it up
by it, though the rest of the bee were as
large as an omnibus horse, yet would
the sting outweigh all the good, sweet,
harmless, honey-laden proportion of the
bee,and you would think about it oftener
and longer.-Burlington Hawkeye.

The Health of Animals.

Early last spring we published In the
Heath MOnthiy an article from the pen
of Hubert Il. Foote, ID. V. S., on the
care of animals, i'll which he took the
position that horses and cattle should
have shelter that is as well provided
with cleanliness and ventilation as are
our homes. The writer undertook to
show that horses are subject to pretty
much the same Ills that we are, ana that
they are nearly or quite as sensitive to
all injurious influences. Since the new
disease has broken out among the horses
of our cities, some of our metropolitan
papers have been calling attention to
the same subject which was SO well pre-
sented by the veterinarian, DIR. Foote.
The ground taken is that If we
would have healthy horses and cattle
we must give them carefully prepared
stables and sheds which are free from all
disagreeable odors or poisons or malari7
Gus Influences. Further attention is
called to the fact that cows provide q
large share. of the food which is given to
our children, and yet that these useful
animals are often provided with only
filthy abodes. Considering how fire.
quently our horses are affected by some
new epidemic and how rapidly pleure
pneumonia is extending over the coun-
try would it not be well for all who have
the care of such domestic animals to
look well to their creature comforts,
and see to it that their dwelling places
are as we'll ventilated and cared for rs

trary 10 the laws Of the United States,
and the validity of the bill looking toward
their suppression, which Congress passed
some time ago, has been certified by the
highest tribunal in the land. President
Hayes, in his message 10 tho Forty-sixth
Congress, adverted TO the matter, and
urgently advocated immediate energetic
and appropriate action. Some spasmodc
attempts have from time to time been
made TO enforce the law and punish the
offenders, as we'll in Salt Lake City as in
any other city Of the Union, but for a
variety of reasons these attempts have
come to naught, and for some time past
it seems that nothing whatever has been
done. The Mormons continue to break
the laws both OF God and man; they still
defy the Government OF the United States
TO make itself respected, and the immu-
nifty with which the defiance is attended
lustities its seeming foolhardiness.
Many reasons are assigned for our
failure 10 carry out the law, aud 1T is
certain that tho undertaking il attended
with enormous difficulties. But it seems
to us that beginning has been made at
the wrong end. Instead OF attacking
the enemy III MS strOLShoiu, VIC Sio,ii
cut off the supplies by which alone he
is enabled to maintain his resistance.
The Mormon polygamists cannot gam
any recruits in this country. They are
obliged to bring the new material from
Europe, where thousands Of people are
so sorely driven by poverty and so be-
nighted by ignorance that they are
ready to believe all the lies that are told
by the Mormon apostles Every
month or 80 we hear of fresh consign
ment of 800 or 400 uniortunGtes being
sent over 10 swell the Mormon popula-
ton, and il is III this way that the evil is
perpetuated. There is no reason why
the landing OF these Mormon immigrants
at any American port should not be for
hidden by the United States authorities,
and when that has been done, the first
step in the solution of the problem will
have been taken.

Bringing Drowned Bees to Life.

A lady in Providence relates the fol-
lowing story: Her father once brought
home "a moisSses hogshead to he used as
q water tanb. On washing day her
mother said
Lets throw the suds in it to soak the
nolasses from the bottom"
The instant she had done so she ex-
claimed:
"Oh. I have drowned hundreds Of our
neighbor's bees
The hogshead was black with bees that
were busily appropriating the sweet from
what they must have considered an enor-
nous blossom. The good lady made
haste with her skinner to skim the bees
from the top of the water and spread
them on q board in the sunshine, but
they seemed drowned and nearly dead,
and she was very sorry. The bees that
were around the hogshead had flown
away Mt the dash of the water, but In n
few minutes they returned, accompanied
by scores of others. Then began GU
rious work. They Immediately went to
work on the unfortunate bees, turning
them over and working on them con-
stantly with their heads. feet and anten-
nae. The result of their busy labor was
that one after another gave signs of life,
stretching the limbs and wings, crawled
about and dried itself in the sun, and
flew away. The lady said there were q
half pint at first, and that there remained
only about dozen helpless cases beyond
the humane efforts of their brothers.

Remarkable Growth ~ the West In
Political Power.


An examination of the number Of Rep
resentativos in Congress- given to each
State by the several apportionments,
says the New York Times, shows the
relative Congressional strength in the
New England, Middle, Southern and
Western States in each of eight consec-
utive decades. From the several appor-
tionments may be constructed table
which exhibits the gradually decreasing
relative Importance OF New England and
the Middle States, whose area has not
been capable of expansion the manner
in which the Southern States have nearly
held their own by the admission Of
Southern Territories, and also the re-
markable growth of the West. In the
following table each sections percent
age of the whole number of Represent
atives under the several apportionments
is given, the decimal parts having been
eliminated for the sake of brevity. Tho
New England and Middle sections rep
resent areas which have not been en-
larged from the beginning, while the
Southern and Western sections have
been continually growing in size by the
addition of new States. The percent
ages which appear in the first line are
those which were allowed before the
census of 1890, upon ratio of to 3d.
000 The first real superintendent WAS
made III 1892, on the census of 1870, the
ratio being to 33, 900. In the Southern
States we have included Maryland, Mis-
souri,, and all others south Of the Ohio
river

The PrOillograph.

Another measuring instrument is de
scribed i'll the french papers--the "pro-
Telegraph" so called because, when in
use, it traces mechanically on paper the
outlines of the ground over which it
travels. It is small carriage mounted
on two wheels, drawn by one man and
attended by another, who marks the
levels at the proper places, and under
meath hangs an iron rod with large
ball at its lower end, serving as pen
dulum. This pendulum maintains u
constant vertical position, while the ma
chine inclines in one direction or the
other, according as it ascends or de-
scends slope. To the upper end of
the rod is fitted pencil, which marks
on sheet of paper the ups and downs
of the country traversed, whether on an
ordinary road or across trackless fields
the exact profile being thus recorded
to given scale. AT the same time one
of the wheels, acting the part of chain
bearer, measures and indicates the dis
tances travelled throughout the survey
the whole neing accomplished with COM
plete accuracy.

One Hundred Wives.

A new play bearing the above title,
written by Mr.. j. Il. Runnion, n Chicago
journalist. has made great hit in Phil
adelphia and other Eastern cities, and
will shortly he reproduced on the stage
of Mcvicker's Thcater, in Chicago. The
Philadelphia NJ4'th American comments
IA follows on this new play: 4t8
If it has the success which it deserves,
ard which its reception promises, the
play entitled 400 Wives" is likely to ex-
ert n powerful influence in stirring up
public feeling against the continued tole-
ration in tho United States of the Nor
mon abomination. On this account, If
for no other reason, we hope that the
piece will be supported by the public,
and go the rounds of the country. 1t
not only gives vivid picture OF the mis-
cries which spring from Mormon prac-
tees, but it indicates by implication the
precise way in which the work of sup
preston, should be begun. The heroine
of the piece, whose wretched situation
furnishes tho gronnd-work of the plot,
is one among "a large party of deluded
people brought over to this country at
the instance and under the direction of
Mormon emissaries. She has been in
duced to leave her home under false pre-
lenses by the suppression of the truth
and the suggestion of what is false, and,
once in Salt Lake City, it is q physical
impossibiity for her return. There Is
more truth than fiction in this story. Nc
one who is ut all acquainted with the
subject can doubt that such has been
the experience of hundreds or even
thousands OF unfortunate women who
have sailed across the Atlantic expect
ing to find an earthly paradise at Salt
Lake, and havingno power to help them
selves or TO make known their wrongs
when they are placed in possession OF
the wretched truth.

American people allow this plague spo,

This table shows how New England
has steadily fallen back in comparative
strength, beginning with more than
one-fourth Of the Representatives and
ending with less than one-tenth. The
Middle States, starting with the same
proportional share, have 80 far filed
their limited area with people that the
decrease in relative strength has been
slight, dating only from the apportion-
ment of 1880. The Southern States,
starting with so great a preponderance,
have steadily, but slowly, lost their rela-
tive strength since the apportionment
of 1910. The Western States, beginning
with Ohio in the apportionment of the
decade 1S19-20, have grown from no
strength at all to power measured by
nearly third of the members of the
House.
The following table shows the num-
Der of Representatives from each OF
the four sections during each decade,
and the basis of each apportionment:

An Unused Basin.

Hero is story they are telling just
now in London of troop ship: In the
ladies' cabin were four wash-basins, one
of which was much larger than the
others. There were three ladies in the
cabin whose husbands were about equal
in rank. The women always think they
have right to presume on the rank OF
their husbands when taking a choice of
berths, etc., and there was a great dis
cussion rs TO who was entitled to use
the big basin. 1t was referred to the
paymaster of the ship, who could settle
nothing, and eventually to the Captain.
He gave decision worthy of Solomon.
After first asking them If they would
abide by his verdict and not give any
more trouble in the matter, which they
readily agreed to do. he said he thought
il was only fair that the oldest lady
should have the biggest basin. That
basin was never used during the whole
voyage out.

The apportionment based upon the
tenth census, which will be made in
1882, will make some important changes
in the representation of the South and
West, but New England and the Middle
States must continue to recede in rela-
tive strength, compelled by the growth
of population in other sections, which
are for the present practically without
limit to the westward, and whose settled
areas are capable of supporting a much
denser population.
