It was like masquerading scene. My
handsome friend and the elegant young
lady bending together over four cracked
cups and as many plates of coarse earth
enware spread upon the shawl on the
dry grass. The circle of wagons, the
groups of saints about their supper
fires, the cattle and the fort in the dis
tance, made a strangely unreal back
ground to woman whose proper place,
for open air, was in the ancient avenue
Of some ancestral park, or standing on
the terrace to receive groups Of brilliant
ladies coming up the lawn. But char
acter is superior to circumstance, and
Miss Clitheroe's self possession controlled
her scenery. Her place, wherever it was,
became her right place. The prairie,
and the wagons, and the rough acces-
s0ries, gave force to her refinement.
Mr.. Clitheroe regarded the pair with a
dreamy pleasure.
''Quite patriarchal, is it not!" said he
to ME. II could fancy myself Laban
and my daughter Rachel. There is a
trace Of the oriental in her looks. We
only need camels, and this would be a
scene worthy of the times Of the eastern
patriarchs and the plains Of the old Holy
Land. We Of the Latter-day church
think much of such associations, more
suppose than you worlds people"
Aand here the old gentleman looked at
me uneasily, as if he dreaded lest |
should fling in a word to disturb his
illusion, or perhaps ridicule his faith.
II have often been reminded here Of
the landscape Of Palestine" said |
"and those bare regions of the orient.
Your friends in Utah, too, refresh
the association by their choice Of Biblical
names"
Eyes; we love to recall those early
days when Jehovah was near to his peo-
pie, a chosen people, who suffered for
faiths sake. as we have done. III fact,
our new faith and new revelation are
only revivals and combinations of the
old. Our founder and our prophets give
us the doctrines Of the earliest church,
with larger light and a surer conf
dence.
He said this with the manner Of one
who is repeating for the thousandth
time lesson, formula which he must
keep constantly before him or its effects
win be gone. In fact, his resolute asser-
ton Of his creed showed the weak belief.
AS he paused he looked at me again,
hoping, as l thought, that l would
dispute or differ, and so he might talk
against contradiction, q far less subtle
enemy than doubt AS did not imme-
diately take up the discussion, he passed
lightly, and with the air of one whose
mind does not love to be consecutive, to
another subject
Hunters, are You not.' said he, turn

JAKE sHAAIBERLAIN's BALL.

1t grew dusk. Glimnering camp tires
marked the circle Of the Mormon cara
van. The wagons seemed each one in
the cleaning a giant white nightcap Of
an ogress leaning over her Goals. The
world looked drowsy, and invited the
pilgrims toward the Mecca Of tie new
Thingamy to repose. They did not seem
inclined to accept. The tramping and

The mines, it is understood, will hence
forth be carried on according to ap-

DANGER ON THE ELEVATOR.

People Who Should Be Careful How
They Use the Rapid Lifts.
The general use of rapid travelling ele-
vators is having an effect upon the peo-
pie who use them that is causing a good
deal of speculation as to whether it is
safe for a person having weak heart to
ride up and down ON them habitually.
Some persons believe that the rapid mo-
ton and sudden stops are liable to pro-
duce heart disease. Doctors are not posi-
tive on the subject, but their opinions
seem to lend color to the theory that a
person with weak heart should not
ride frequently on such elevators.
"This is certainly a very interesting
question" said Dr. Thomas j. Mays,
who makes diseases of the heart q
speciality. 81 have heard people com
planning of sinking feeling in these
rapid transit elevators, but whether the
movement Of the elevator has any effect
on the heart or not am not prepared to
say. When persons heart is diseased
in any way the slightest change of en-
vironment will affect it, of course. The
movement of the elevator causes a
change Of environment, but it may or
may not cause an aggravation of the
heart trouble. Doubtless it quickens
the movement Of the heart, but without
investigation of the subject it would
seem to me that the movement Of a
rapid transit elevator would only affect
those persons whose hearts are affected
However, am not prepared to give an
opinion without study of the question"
DR.. Frank Woodbury., another physi-
clan who gives heart troubles special
attention, also said he had not studied
the question, but he was rather inclined
to think the movement of rapid transit
elevator would affect a person; "but,"
said he, 81 think it would have more
effect on the nerves than on the heart.
came down in one of those elevators
this morning with lady, and she com
planned Of q sinking feeling, as if she
was going to faint. Not having given
the matter any serious consideration, I
am not prepared to give an opinion, but
should think nervous people would
very probably be affected by the sudden
and swift upward or downward motion
of an elevator"
DR.. John B. Shoemaker was another
physician who declined to express an
opinion. II have heard the matter dis
cussed," said he, ''but have not given
it personal attention. The motion of a
rapid elevator undoubtedly has tenn
porary effect on some people, but whether
it affects the heart permanently OF not
cannot say"
Another physician said that many
persons nerves snd hearts are Affected
by the excessive use Of tobacco, and the
rapid noHen sf the elevator will always
affect them. The heart is always af-
fected by tho constant use of tobacco,
and it's movement easily Quickened by
excitement Of any kind. This is espe-
cially the case with persons of a nervous
temperament, and those persons always
have sinking feeling when a rapid transit
elevator suddenly starts or stops
Whether these rapid transit elevators
have permanent effect upon the heart
or nerves, he would not venture an
opinion. Philadelphia Record.
