CHARMING GIRLS.-f you are fortunate in
possessing beauty, my dear girls, be thankful
for the gift, but do not overrate it. The girl
who expects to win her way by her beauty and
to be admired and accepted simply because she
is a lady, has the wrong idea. She must Sc
cure lovable character if she wishes to be
loved, and my advice to you all, is to lay the
foundation of a permanent influence. TO win
and hold admiration you must cultivate the
gifts that nature has bestowed upon you. If
you have talent for music, develop it ; learn
to sing some choice songs and to perform upon
some instrument, for many are charmed more
by music than by handsome features. Pursue
the same course with regard to painting, draw
ing, and designing, and if you have the power
to obtain useful knowledge in any direction do
it. 1 have heard young men in speaking of
their lady acquaintances, "Oh they look well,
but they don't know anything." There is no
necessity for such state of things books are
cheap and accessible. If you labor all day in
shop OF store, still, at odd intervals, you can
gather up an education and contend with no
greater difficulties than did Clay, Fillmore,
Webster and others Of our greatest men.
terf1y, how will you be spoken of by-and-
by =? own it is nice to eat, drink and be mer-
ry, and be courted and flattered by all your
friends but how much better to cultivate
character, sense, and true womanliness.

BY ORION.

Once sat musing by flowing stream,
Where bright bubbles rose and floated fast,
All tinged DER with gold by the SUMS bright gleam
That down from heaven on them was cast.
On, on they sped, dancing along so bright,
All BETTING well the gorgeous scene,
AS they moved along meath meridian light,
Each robed in gold and a purple sheen.
Around me there the richest flowers bloom'd,
Fer breathing their sweetness on the air,
And tho whole vale with fragrant beauty crowned,
Delightful, as it was rich and rare.
And then around me gentle zephyrs blew
And toyed with the flowers they each caressed,
Nor Quit they their wooing till they had drew
A feast from every one they had pressed.
There, too, heard sweet and plaintive voice,
That greeted mine ears so pleasantly,
1t made my weary inmost soul rejoice,
WhileI was drinking in its melody;
Till, full of joy, my heart forgot its woe,
So charming was the bright, dazzling scene,
When rising from the trance homeward ogo,
1 walked and found all was but a dream.
And oh, how oft, since that enchanting spell,
Bubbles and flowers have seen most rare,
And heard as many voices as sweetly swell
Upon pure rich and fragrant air;
But reason whispered to me, Let them pass
Strive you nor for honor, wealth or fame
Or you may find, too late, alas alas
They are all but phantoms of the brain.

will be very restless on this smooth surface.
Again, if party should undertake to wade
along through the snow on steep mountain
side, they leave furrow behind them which
the immense pressure Of the snow above is
bound to close up. The magnitude of the
slide depends upon the momentum the mass
may acquire before closing up this gap. Hence
it is that men who know the capricious nature
tious in moving around. The explosion of q

beneath the surface, has been known to start

T1IE.-It waits for no man-it travels on
ward, with an even, uninterrupted, inexorable
step, without accommodating itself to the de-
lays Of mortals. The restless hours pursue
their course moments press after moments
day treads upon day-year rolls after year.
Does man loiGer procrastinate Is he listless
or indolent Behold the days, and months,
and years, unmindful of his delay, are never
sluggish, but march forward in silent and SOL
emn procession. Our labors and tolls, our
ideas and feelings, mayb suspended by sleep
darkness, and silence, and death, may reign
around us, but time rests not -slumbers new
er, but presses along, and knows no stoppages.
We may dam up mighty rivers stop them in
journeying to the ocean press them back to
their source but the arrest Of time is beyond
the power Of any human being, besides Onnip-
otence. The clock may cease to strike, the
bell to toll the sun may cease to shine, the
moon stand still; but the busy hours pass on.
The months and years must move for ever for
ward.

TERRORs OF TIE Snow SL1DE.-TO those
who have never witnessed snow slide, the
term has no terror, while those who have seen
an avalanche in the Wasatch shudder at the
very thought of it. The mountains in the
vicinity Of the Cottonwoods are steep and
bare. 1t is said an Indian will not venture
up Little Cottonwood Canon. When ques-
toned as to the cause of this strange fear Of
that particular cafon, they shake their heads
and say mo good" Perhaps in former years
while, hunting in the mountains, slide might
have sent number of them to the happy hunt
ggrounds. Since the discovery of minerals in
that section the timber along the mountain
sides has been nearly all cut down. The snow
falls deeper on this range than on any other
part of the Rocky Mountains, and the least
jar at the bottom will start the snow to NOV
ing gradually. At first it starts gently, the
whole mass gaining strength and speed till it
finally comes down like thunderbOlt, with
the roar of thousand pieces of artillery.
Trees and houses are licked up and snapped
away as though 80 much paper. Immense
boulders are taken up in it's course, and moth
ing but desolation and ruin remain behind.
There are many causes for snow slides. If

NEWSPAPER ''ORaANs. "-If the excellence
ofa newspaper is not always measured by its
proftableness, it is generally true that if it
does not pay its owner, it is yalueless to the
public. Not all the newspapers which make
money are good, for some succeed by catering
to the lowest tastes of respectable people, and
to the prejudice, ignorance and passion Of the
lowest class but as rule the successful jour-
nal pecuniarily is the best journal. The rea-
sons for this are on tho surface. The impecu-
niousnewspaler cannot give itsreaders prompt
ly the news, and, still worse it cannot be in
dependent. The political journal that relies
for support OH drippings of party favor or pat
ronage is poor affair, and, in the long run or
short run, comes to grief. The newspaper
only becomes real power when it is able OH
the basis of pecuniary Independence to free
itself from all such rentanglements. An edi-
tor who stands with hat in hand, has the re-
spect accorded toany other beggar-Charles
Dudley Warmer.

confined to neither place nor people. In
small German town an inn-keeper, to get rid
Of book k-peddler's opportunities, bought an
almanac from him, and putting it in his pocket
left the inn, his wife just then came in to take
his place. The woman was then persuaded to
buy an almanac, not knowing that her h,ls-
band had one already. The husband shortly
returning and discovering the trick, sent his
porter to the railway station after the peddler,
with message that he wished to see the lat
ter on important business. "Oh, yes,n said
the peddler, II know, he wants one OF my al
manacs, but really can't miss my train for
that. You cs give me quarter and take the
almanac to HIN" The porter paid the money
and carried the third almanac to the inn-keep-
er. Imagine the sensation of the victim!
AN ARCTIC WINTER.-1t is mistake to
suppose that the Arctic winter, in the higher
latitude, is long, dreary one of Opaque dark
ness. The highest latitude yet reached by
man is eighty three degrees, twenty minutes,
twenty seconds, and there twilight lasts four
hours and forty-two minutes on December %,
the shortest day of the northern year. Man
will have to 60 some 1927 miles further north
than he has yet gone if he is to reach the re-
gion of absolute darkness. The pole itself is
IN the dark but seventy-seven days from
November 13 to January 90. There is a Pc
riod Of about four days in the year during
which the sun shines on both poles at the
same time. This is due to the fact that the
sun is larger than the earth, and that his rays
are bent by the earth's atmosphere in such a
way as to converge upon itsshTface '-'...
A Productive BATTLEGRoUND.-H
dreds and thousands of old soldiers, both Con-
federate and Federal, will remember Mission-'
ary Ridge, near Chattanooga. Itis the site of
one of the most decisive battles of the war
ragged, rocky, steep, poor in soil as any part
of the table land, and was, until recently, re-
garded as worthless. For what purpose men
held it was not known by themselves, or any
body else. Three OF four years ago it's lands
would not bring over two to four dollars an
acre. Now the ridgeis covered with orchards,
and the profits are such that no land can he
bought for less than forty or fifty dollars an
acre. 1t is thus old ideas give way beforenew
conditions and new infusOns Of brains and en-
ergy. ...........
"BY THE CARD"-In the time Of George
III, Horace Walpole tells us that everybody
followed Hamlet's direction, and spoke "by
the card.'' They were made the vehicles of
messages of all kinds, and even reverend Dlsh-
ops would take up All ace Of hearts to convey
instruction on serious matters of business;
some Of which are still in existence. Carlca-
lures, then new species Of satire, were some
times drawn upon them, the ministers OF state
condescending to invent the devices, Charles
Townshend himself carricaturing the trial of
Admiral Byng so cleverly that the pack was
afterwards engraved.

The story of the valley of death, !" proba-
bly,, had it's origin in the fact that there was
some locality in this volcanic country where
carbonic-acid gas poured out from crack in
the earth in such quantities as to produce the
fatal effects attributed to the tree. The ma
tive Javans use the juice as an arrow poison,
prepared much the same as the South Aneri-
cans make their a1oorara, with which their

ENCoURAaEMENT- An amusing story is
told Of alittle fellow named Artie, one of three
brothers, walose parents had brought them up
to be brave and self-reliant. He couldn't do
much, but what he could do he did with all
his might. And as their parents were Metho-
dists Of the good eld-fashioned kind, the boys
were in the habit of hearing-at such times
the hearty 'Amen' break forth from their
fathers lips when the sermon was particularly
enjoyable. .... f...
One cold Sabbath day these children were
left at homa, with many cautions to be care; care
full. -
Hardly had the parents left, ere the wood
work near the stove pipe was discovered, to be
on fire. and out of the children's reach; but,
with wonderful activity and energy, the eldest
climbed upon the table and put out the flames.
When the father and mother returned they
shuddered to see the danger to which their
dear ones had been exposed, and with thankful
hearts praised them for their courage. .af'-
':How did you manage, Tommy, to reach
the fire ?" asked their father. ..s..,

"And what did you do" said the proud
father to his pet, the youngest of the group.
"Well papa'' said Artie, s'you sec was
too small to help put out the fire, so 1 just
stood by and hollered Amen"
WELL PosrED.-He was plain old man
from the country; he wore an Old-style, brim-
med hat, and his clothes were homespur; but
when slick-looking stranger stepped up to
him on Vine street and professed to know
him, and asked all about his wife and family,
and wanted TO know when he came down and
when he was going back, the old man declined
the proffered hand, and drawing back, said:
