expense and risk that it takes to per.
form them. Those things called dear,
are, when justly estimated, the cheapest.
A competition for cheapness, and not
for excellence of workmanship, is the
most frequent and certain cause of the
rapid decay and destruction of the teeth.

The mine owner and the demagogue in
politics, and the beginner and schemer in
business, may attempt to delude, by fine
theories of Cheap Money and Cheap Goods,
but the good sense of the people, the intel
ligent public opinion in this country-as in
all first class powers-with Grover at the
helm will still insist that Gold is the best
measure OF values, the scale to which all
commodities can be brought to have their
value ascertained
WALKER & SANTEES stock is the
pure gold-so to speak-in their line of
goods, the scale to which all other lines of
the same wares should be brought to have
their depreciation and baseness demon

is OVER

And WALKER & SANTEE have been
chosen, by large majority, as the popu-
lar dispensers of their seasonable special
ties in Highland county.
In their code of rules no delays or oh.
structions can be interposed to thwart the
will of the majority, who daily throng their
business emporium for the selection of their
winter supply of Gents Clothing, Furnish
ings and Shoes.
In this special stock, of these prime ne
cessities, nothing akin to initiation, or to
false or dangerous standard of values, is,
for moment, permitted to exist
AS the only money the poor man wants
is the best money, and as he is always the
greatest sufferer from cheap money, so

MULTITUDEs OF CRYSTALS.
Perfectly Transparent, They Cover q
Wonderful Mound Discovered
In Utah.

Those who are at all interested in the
study of rocks and stones have probably
observed some of the peculiar secretions
or nodules which frequently occur in.
certain kinds of stratihed rock. These
structures are usually round; some of
them, indeed, are almost perfect spheres,
and many are hollow, having their inner
walls covered with beautiful crystals.
Such hollow nodule, whether possessing
a crystalline lining or not, is known as a
geode. Now, l wish to tell you of a
geode which in form and appearance, and
probably also in process of formation, is
very much like those referred to, but of
mammoth proportions. 1t is composed
of pure gypsum or selenite, and many of
the single crystals are of gigantic size.
This wonderful formation was discovered
within a few miles of the majestic Henry
Mountains in southern Utah. 1t is stu
ated in a small tributary of the Fremont
canon; and this in turn leads to the
Grand Canon of the Colorado. The
crystals occur in cave, which is en-
closed in shell of gypsum; and this
mound-lik structure stands on the side
of a sandstone hill. This is the geode
