Mormon Tithing Scrip.

A Salt Lake correspondent Of The ST Louis
Globe Democrat writes; If you 60 into the
principal office Of the tithing house you will
see a tall young man handling what looks
like money. He is behind counter, and
the counter is protected by a high railing.
The man glances through the window, then
looks down at the bills, and then goes on
thumbing them like a bank teller. He goes
20 and from a big safe. carrying bundles
done up just as bills are with little bands Of
brown paper pinned about them. Some
times the young man doesn't stop 20 count,
but takes the amount on the brown slip as
correct and passes out the money This is
Mormon money. IL is the tithing scrip. lt
is used 20 facilitate the handling of the grain
and hay and live stock and produce which
come in. II you pick up one of these bills
you will find It very much like n bank note
in appearance. In one upper corner is the
number Of the bill In the lower left hand
corner is the in hoe signo Of Mormonism, a
bee hive.
The face OF the bill reads General Tith-
ing Storehouse Good Only for Merchandise
and Produce at the General Tithing Store
house, Salt Lake City, Utah Each note
bears the signature Of the presiding bishop
On the back is the denomination again, and
a vignette OF the new temple at Salt Lake
City. The back also bears the wording:
This note is not current except in the mer-
chandise and produce departments of the
General Tithing Storehouse.' The engraving
is well executed and the printing is well
done. The bills vary in color. There are
greenbacks for one department OF the tithing
house. brownbacks for another, and so ON.
BY using this scrip the church is able TO Gre
ate market for considerable quantities Of
the tithing. This scrip is given out in dis
pensing charity. 1t is used in paying for
work on the temple so far as the workmen
can make use Of il. Employees Of the tithing
house receive their salaries or allowances
partly in scrip I'm numerous ways the Nor
mon money gets into circulation.

Our quiet little town is all stirred up with
the grippe, with the exception perhaps of s.
G. Reighsrd, who has recently taken unto
himself wife and is therefore too proud and
don't want the grippe.
The citizens of the Pennyroyal Mountains
were thrown into confusion by seeing man
passing through their land with a clean shirt
on, and all of the men in that land followed
him until he vas run down. He organized a
lodge of the Pumpkin Huskers, telling that
if they would give him $13 he would organize
lodge that would raise the price of whortle-
berries S. on the bushel, and rabbit tracks
would be in better demand next year. But
enough did not see him, so they failed to
make it the first time, and when they came
the next time he was lacking, and they stood
outside like the old jews around the walls of
Jerusalem. All is over for the present, or
until some one comes around again with a
clean shirt on. o. K.

Get the Best,

In buying medicines of any kind it is al
ways the cheapest to get the very best the
market affords. The coughs and colds and
especially the cough which follows the Grip,
should be checked at once, and this can be
most easily done if taken in its first stages.
The best remedies can be procured at Saur &
Balsley's Drug and Book House. No one who
values health can afford to be without few
of the more prominent remedies in his house.
Should your child get the Group in the night
yoa would find it very convenient to have a
medicine in the house which will relieve it in
afew minutes. 25 cents worth of Group med
icine would last all winter, and you cannot
afford to be without it single night for
twice that amount. Try it; remember that
Saur Il Balsley keep all the best cough and
Group remedies known.

A Nebraska farmer puts forward new
remedy for hog cholera, which he claims to
have used with success. We quote it from
the Indiana Farmer for what it may be worth:
"Instead of dosing the sick porkers with
medicine he takes them out riding. He pla-
ces few at time in big wagon and drives
pell-mell over the lots and pastures, seeking
the toughest places he can find. After few
such drives, hogs that before refused to eat
began to feed and get better. He has not lost
single hog since he began this treatment,
and thinks be has demonstrated its utility.

A delightful audience witnessed Miss
Carlton in Lady Audley's Secret, at the
Opera House on Monday evening. The lady
is undoubtedly possessed of superior dramat-
10 ability, and throws all her predecessors in
the shade for strength of expression and
power of action. Those who witnessed Lady
Audley on Monday night were considerably
surprised to see Fanchon ON Tuesday night
the characters being SO widely dissimilar and
yet elegantly played. A graceful carriage,
an expressive face and astonishing control
of vocal powers. prove her to be an actress
born. The acting of VIM. E. Todd is also
commendable. and Geo. w. Collins is good
mirth- -proyoker. Miss Carlton changes the
programme each evening, alternating be-
tween comedy and tragedy SO that lovers of
either branch of the drama can take their
choice. She remains with MS until Saturday
evening, and should have what her talents
merit-crowded houses.
