But few outside of Utah understand
 how the hormons secure 30 many con-
 verts from Europe. They are not se-
 cured by actual converts to the Mormon
 religion, but b. the inducements held
 out to the poorer classes for bettering
 their condition in this life. The Nor
 mon missionaries have been at work
 among the poor of Europe for the past
 twenty-five years. At first they were
 not able to secure many converts, but
 they got few here and there, and from
 different localities, and upon the reports
 of those few many have come.
 They manage in this way: Missiona-
 rIes are drafted from among members of
 the Mormon church. There IS no escape
 from this duty; all who are so drafted,
 according to the laws of the Mormon church, must go. unless they are pre- vented by sickness, which is the only excuse that the church will accept. Not only this, but the missionaries are re- quired to pay their own expenses, and, If we remember rightly, they must re- main abroad in the work one year.
 The Mormon church holds out induce l ments in the way of lands and homes, l and also pays for the transportation of such as will join the church, and come to Utah. This agreement the church | strictly adEeres to. ImmedIately on the 1 arrival of cargo of immigrants. they | are parceled out among the various Mormon settlements, and given employ ment until such time as they have gained sufficient knowledge Of farming Tn Utah. 10 settle down upon land 0f their own. Many of the new corners find old friends in Utah, who came ont years ago, and upon whose recomends- tions and assurances, most of the late arrivals were induced to join the Nor mon society-for most of them look upon the church as a species of emigra- ton bureau, which assist poor people in securing homes and bettering their condition, and beyond this they take little interest in the church.
 In order to illustrate the extent of this feeling We have only to repeat a Of the writer with an Eng .ish mormon who had been in Utah about four years. We asked him "how he lked the Mormon church and if he be- ievvd in its doctrines"
 70, yes," he rsplied, "I do believe ID he church; it's the best in the world. You see 1 came to thls country four years ago; the church paid my way. now have farm Of my own-20 acres of and-two COWS, a dozen pigs, and wheat md corn enough 10 last me R whole 7ear; but had I remained in my own , country I could never have owned COW. fes, the Mormon church Is the greatest f .hurch iu the word"
 This IS about the way most of the for ! ign converts regard the Mormon , hurch, and fl they ever become real f converts and believers in the teachings I f the church, IL Is years after they have i ettled in Utah. The passage money of { II foreign converts is paid by the emi- ration fund, if they are not able to pay heir own passage. But the first money I hey earn after arriving ID Utah must ( 70 towards hluida.ing their debt to the a hurch, and every year thereafter they l re required to contribute a c-rtain " mount toward the emigration fund to g ring more converts over. a

His Hair Oil.

A yOungster on Class avenue had noticed tall, black bottle on his fathers dressing table and asked what 1t held.
 That, my son, is hair oil, answered his father with furtIve and wandering look. "Bnd it IS not at al nice for httle boys"
 The youthful guestiOner took smell of the contents and asked no more in- formation upon the subject. lie kept up good bit of thinking, however. Last Sunday the family entertained some friends at dinner, and there was plum pudding with brandy sauce. The small boy had found his opportunity. When he was helped to the pudding he sized 1t mp with large eyes.

When Lord Coledudge first reached
 home from his visit to America, be promised 10 write book about us, but upon subsequent reflection he has made
 up his mind that be cannot do the sub Ject justice. In a recent letter to Mir. Elliott F. Shepard, of New York, he says that he does not feel equal to the task, and adds; ''I for my part shrink from attempting anything even so serious as a magazine article, and the only person l can suggest 10 do it is Goldwin Smith, who IS half an Ameri- can, and is a most splendid writer of English. The fact IS, my dear Shepard. you and your friends spoiled me, as I said, saw such very nice people and was so very kindly treated that I am sure my view of America is not con- plete. There cannot be 55,000,000 of such men and women as saw, and peO- pie here would say that the kindness and generosity of your people had turned my head or that had gone out ofmy mInd,to which they perhaps might add, I had not far to gC." As it has always been impossible for most English visitors to restrain themselves from writing books about us, Lord Cole ridge's confession will probably win him additional sdmirstion.-Chicago Times.
