When the great Temple is finished the
Sacred Orders, endOwments, celestial seal
ing. baptism for the dead. and plural mar
riages, will be administered in it: until then
they are being given in the Temple at Logan,
q town north of Salt Lake.
IL may as well describe the Endowment
House rites from the beginning, Trean. for
if l do not you will probably never know
what they are like. 1t is the Frecmasonry
of MOrmon:sm. No marriage is considered
binding. You know. if in the beginning or
afterwards it is not celebrated there or in Il
Mormon Temple. No matter how long two
persons may have been welded. their mar
riage is not considered lawful and binding,
nor their children legitimate. until they have
been remarked and have p2r;aken of these
disgusting mysteries. Even then their chill
dren. born before. must be adopted by their
parents or they are not looked upon as legiti-
mate! This is according To the highest
Mormon authority. 1t is with this as with
the general laws Of mankind. to our people
they are as nothing if no: indorsed by the
Priesthood. Trean, it is shameful!
'Well, at seven o'clock in the morning

found my husband and his new love waiting
in the anteroom. My limbs would hardly
support me when l saw them. and such Il
weight seemed to descend upon me 1 could
only stagger to a chair and sink into il,
gazing at them with horror and misery. 1t
seemed to me l should never rise again.
But Brother Lyon, our Mormon poet. came
forward and reasoned and talked with NE,
showing me how it was my duty to go on with
the ceremony. and Edgar came and kissed
me, saying that he would always cherish
me. and that his new wife and l should
always be exactly equal in his affection. o.
bitter, hollow mockery Of a wcman's love!
SO l got up with my burden, with my sick
soul and broken heart, and went forward,
hoping to win Heaven by a life of sorrow
anu the outrage of my better self.

THE PRESENT DAYS ARE BEST.

h past is dead and buried. and Ihave locked
the door
Upon its joys and sorrows. to open never more;
Its key is safely hidden on memory faithful
And to my heart I whisper: 1.-The present days
are best"
Think not Ihave forgotten the cherished friends
OF yore,
Call them not lost, my loved ones, they're just
within the door:
And often when I'm lonely, they share my even
ing rest,
And their dear voices whisper: 1.-THE present
days are best"
o golden days Of childhood: o girlhood's sunny
hours!
When in the fragrant wildwood I plucked the
summer flowers,
Your very memory cheers me like some dear,
welcomed guest;
Yet chide me not for saying: The present days
are best"
Dear are the friendly faces that meet me on
the way.
Sweet are the roadside blossoms that smile on
meto-day;
A few bright sprays I'll gather, and wear them
on my breast,
For they. too, softly whisper: 1.-THE present
days are best"
To do the work appointed BY Him who rules my
life,
To face, with dauntless spirit, the worlds OPP

Or il. in utter weakness, e'er MONDAY I must

for in common everyday life such mar
riages. in nine cases out of ten. prove
to be among the most unhappy
and usually end in divorce. A man of

Tho Streets. Churches and Converts q

The Streets. Churches and Converts Of
the CITY Of Merida.
The streets OF Merida cross each other
at right angles. aud eight Of them lead
out of the Plaza Mayor-two in the
direction of each cardinal point. In
every street. at the distance of Il few
squares from the center. stands IN
ancient gateway. arched high above thu
pavement. and just beyond are the bar
rios. or suburbs. Not long ago the now
dismantled niche over each great gate
way held its Christ or saint or Virgin.
before which people were always kneel-
ing and crossing themselves. Formerly
all the streets were distinguished. in Il
manner peculiar t. Yucatan. by images
of birds or beasts set up at the corners.
and many still retain the ancient sign.
For example. the street upon which we
are living is called La Gale del F1am-
lingo. because of a huge red flamingo
painted on the corner house. Another
is known as the street Of the Elephant.
and the representation Of il is an ex-
aggerated animal. with curved trunk
and body big rs u barrel. There is the
street of the Old Woman. and On its
corner is the ~caricature Of an aged fe-
male. with huge spectaclcs astride her
nose. The street Of the Two Faces has
q double-faced human head. and there
are others equally striking. The reason
for this kindergarten sort of nOmea-
clatu-e was because when the streets
were named the great mass OF inhab-
itants were Indians who could not read.
and therefore printed signs would have
been of no use to them. but the picture
of n bull. a flamin.O or an elephant
they could not mistake.
As in all Spanish-American cities.
distinguishing feature is is
churches. The great cathedral. erected
in 1861. is Of quaint and attractive
architecture: and besi:es there is the
church of the Jesuits. the church AMI
convent of San Cristobal. the church
and convent of Mejorada. the church
of Santa Lucia and the Virgin. the
Of San Juan Baptista and of
Our Lady of Candeiaria. the convent
de las Monjas. and others too mer
too mention. Though now impover.
ished. and some Of them in decay, Il
number of them still retain enough rich
ornaments and vestments I o furnish
suggestions of former grandeur. Since
the expulsion of the Jesuits. nearly a
quarter of a century ago. all religious
professions have been prohibited on
the streets. much church property has
ownership and even the
names of streets and places have been
to suit the present sentiment.
Thus one Of the pleasantest squares.
formerly known as the Plaza de Jesus.
IS nOw called Plaza Hidalgo. In the
Did days this park had an exceedingly
and beautiful center. which. SAD

CONCERNING SALIVA.

Importance Of the Thorough MasticatiOn
and Insa.iyatiOn Of Food.
The saliva is a mixed fund, secreted and
poured into the mouth from no less than
three clusters of glands the parotid, under
the ears, the submaxillary, near the ends of
the lower jaws. and the sublingual. under
the tongue. Still another secretion is poured
from numerous separate glands throughout
the mucous membrane which lines the
cheeks. From n to two quarts Of this
mixed saliva is secreted daily.
In former times it was supposed that the
only use of saliva was to mOisten the mouth,
and to aid in swallowing the food. The most
eminent Psychologists looked on it as of no
more value than pure water. The prevalent
modern view is that it is one Of the digestive
fluids, containing q powerful element which
converts starch into sugar. 1t is believed
that in man his digestive element is con-
tanned mainly in the parOtid secretion. This
secretion is not viscid, but clear and limpid.
The s~ubmaxillary secretion is viscid. and the
s%ublingual still more so. The fact that sa-
liv3-Or rather its constituent element, called
ptyalin-cOnverts starch into sugar, has
been proved by careful experiment. 1t has
also been shown that severe digestive dis
turbance results from a deficiency of saliva.
There is n peculiar quality of saliva to
be mentioned, namely, that il a small guam
tlty of it is introduced into a large quantity
Of boiled starch, its power will be at length
arrested by its " product-sugar. If,
now, water be added, the action of the saliva
will begin again. and SO on indefinitely, by
successive additions of water, until the
whole is transformed. While the action Of
saliva will go on in the presence of IA weak
acid, it is wholly arrested by a strong one.
Hence its action in the stomach on starch
food is arrested within ten or twenty min
utes by the increasing acidity of the gastric
juice. and then the gastric juice begins Its
digestive action on fiesh-fOOd.
Quite recently a German chemist has pub
lished results Of experiments which are be-
lieved to prove that saliva has another i'm
pOrtant functiOn-that it assists the stomach
to secrete the pepsin. the chief element in
the gastric juice. Not that it simply stimu-
lates the stomach to the production of it's
own secretion. but actually assists in the
complex process by which the active constit-
uents of the gastric juice are formed. This
work.. at any rate, will emphasize the prac-
teal importance of thorough mastication and
insalivation of food Youths COmpanion.

REPLY TO AU REVOIR.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-ln your issue
of Tuesday, Dec. 4th, was an article
over the signature of eau Revoir,"
relating to postal matters on Maui
that needs more than passing no
tice. 1t is distasteful to me to re-
sort to the press to vindicate my po-
sition, but in this case I see no
other way of defending myself from
the insinuations of your correspon-
dent, and in doing so must also
take up the gauntlet for the other
postmasters who are particularly
mentioned in that letter.
In the first place word for the
mail carrier, and through him for
myself. 1t is but justice to him to
state that no one in Waikiki or Ka-
hului knew that the Lehua would
come again on the Kinau's route,
although "Au Revoir" seems to
have known it instinctively conse-
quently the mail carrier, supposing
the Kinau was coming on her regu-
lar trip, and nothing having been
said to the contrary, went to Maa-
laea bay with the mail at the usual
time. To his astonishment upon his
arrival there he learned that the Le-
hua had come in, landed mail and
gone. This could not have been
done had she left Honolulu at the
advertised time of the regular
steamer. Nothing was said to him
about the vessel not going the whole
route of the Kinau, and he brought
the mail back TO the office, thinking
Gas we all did) that the chance to
send the mail to Hawaii had been
lost, not through any carelessness on
the part of the postmaster or mail
carrier, but from not being inform
ed Of the movements of the steam
ers. The same reason applies for
the nonconnection with the Like
like. No one at the Wailuku Post
Office knew anything about the
Likelike going TO lIilo until too late
TO despatch mail by her. So much
for the Hawaii mail and the indiffer-
ence of the postmaster.
1t is unfair to criticise the pre-
sent mail carrier in such scathing
terms as are used by "Au Revoir, "
for SO far he has performed the SER
vice exceptionally well. With Tom,
Dick and Harry to perform the
work, and his intelligent supervision
he has made the service very salts
factory as well as doing it for 33 per
cent. less than the former contrac-
