pared to be prosecuted and misrepre-

principle of poiygaIny which is so odious
To the world, that brings US into disre-

of the gospel OF Jesus Christ, and but
a portion of what we believe in and
know to be the will of God. We did
not originate that principle, it was re-
vealed by God as part of the restored
gospel. Has it worked injury to any
one? No, but with other principles of
the gospel, is calculated to bless and
benefit mankind. If mankind would
but lay aside their preiudices and in

them to be of God. and calculated to
bless and ennoble men and lead them
to eternal life.

An Old Story With a New Face

As Tom Baker, of the 1,qdisonian,
was over in this part of the country
about the time referred to in the follow
ing paragraph written by himsel) there
is ground for suspicion that he is the
unknown" therein. Else how did he
come to know so much about it? "It
was young, newly married couple who
came cut of Helena by the Northern
Pacific the other day. and, entering the
Mullan tunnel, the groom, who thought
it was a very short one. snatched a
hasty kiss from his charner and then
sat back-a picture of prim propriety.
But the tunnel was very much longer
than he thought. and when the train
again emerged into the light he re-
marked: IF I'd known it was so long,
I'd have had lots of hugs and kisses 7"
well" exclaimed the blushing bride
looking at him in establishment. didn't
you? In heavens name. who did then 2"
And then there was a sudden GOODNESS
that betokened i'll for the pleasure of

places OF amusement are confined BY the

much to rest theey and divert the mind
of the sick and weary, who come here

houses
The merchants display variety of
beautiful holiday goods, and they are ar
ranged with taste. Groups of gIeeful
children were inspecting, with an ex-
preston of eXpeCtant hope, beaming
from their bright eyes. The elders were
happy in quiet way, looking on, buy
ing slyly, hiding bundles with an assum-
ed look of ignorance. Indications of
the coming Christmas are visable on
every side, the announcement never
grows stale, the event never becomes
monotonouS, or loses any of its charm.
AS | passed on, bright picture was out

treasures, and linked together with bonds

voices reSound through the house, trip
ping feet come and 90 busy fingers work
with alacrity, each one preparing to-

day is gone and waketul little eyes close
IN dreams of Santa Klaus. The
morning dawnS as brightly as the noon
