matter? I know I'm brute, but didn't
think you'd take it 500
ooh, can't you help me?" she pleaded,
and began cropping about and feeling
aimlessly with her hands.
He saw that her hair was loosened and
that her wrists and face were scratched
and bleeding in dozen places.
"Why, what's the matter2" he queried
again, as she came cropping toward him
and stumbled against him.

"Of course | can, small girl; you're

reiterated as his arms closed tightly
around her.
"Oh, silly, can't you see I've lost my
glasses?' she exclaimed, pulling away
from him and flushing red among the
greenery. But he held her tight.
''1ou don't want them; you see better
without them, blue eyes. Confess, now,
you never really saw before. Give up
trusting in those wretched glasses and
trying to be independent. Come, see

But still she held back an arms length
really defiant. His fingers left white
circle where they clasped her wrists. She
seemed ready to cry and then smiled in
stead: "You'll get my glasses if prom
ise?"
He nodded.
Suddenly throwing her arms about his
neck she said: II always liked your

"Maybe you were right about my art"
she added seriously. "But-this needn't

TEE LIGHT OF OTHER DAYS. "

Speaking of the wonderful discoveries
and inventions that follow each other IN
such rapid succession, calls to mind the
marvellous improvements in the mechani-
cal department of dentistry. The old
fashioned, Quincy, uncomfortable plate
is almost numbered with the past The
torture OF extraction is in a marked de-
gree banished. for in the place of plates
we have bridge-work, and instead of the
extraction OF old roots we have the crown
ing process, by which they may be re-
stored to their natural usefulness and
comfort.
These coin gold and gold and porcelain
faced tooth crowns are unlike the old
offensive and weak pivot teeth, or other
Objectionable substitutes of more recent
dates. By this method badly decayed or
broken teeth, or even old roots that have
been worse than useless, may be re-
stored to their original form, natural APP
pearance, usefulness and beauty, and be
made as firm as natural teeth.
This special crown p Ocess is no ex-
pertinent, and though recently brought
to public notice, many thousands OF these
wonderful operations have been success
fully performed, giving universal salts
faction to the patient. 1t is no new thing.
for DR.. Griswold has practiced this work
for several years, yet it is not general,
with the majority of the dentists. II
takes experience to be successful with
this highest class of the dental science.
For the front and side teeth the crowns
are faced with porcelain, which In form
and color exactly initiate the natural
teeth. When completed, the crown is
attached to the root by white, insolubie
cement, rendering the tooth as firm as
a natural one and capable of performing
all its offices. This beautiful process SUI
percedes the barbarous custom of ex-
tracing teeth, and has revolutioniZed the
art of dentistry. DR.. Griswold makes a
peciaity of Crown and Bridgeworks and
his many years practical experience en-
aDles him to produce the most beautiful
ano perfect resIIlts

AN IRISH STORY.
The best anecdote gotten off at this
congress was the one that Colonel Irish
spun when convincing the convention
that San Francisco was the only place to
hold the next congress IAN evangelist
from Georgia (6am jones' came to our
state to save our people from the wrath
to heaven to stand on their feet. All rose
except one man. He then asked all those
who wanted to go to hell to stand up. No
one arose.
'The evangelist went down the aisle,
and laying his hand on the shoulder of
the man who remained seated, asked him I:
" How is this? You don't want to go
to heaven, neither do you want to go to
hell

MAS good enough for me-. +"

THE STATEHOOD FIGHT
Majority.of.One Allen Will Lead the
Opposition.
A Meeting of the Liberal Contingent Said
to Have Been Called for This Morn
ing-Sly Maneuvres.

G. E. Allen, who, since he retired from
has been accorded privacy in the prsc-
tice of the law that is painful, is here for
the purpose OF resurrecting himself by
speech against statehood.
The question of statehood is sure to
come up, and the Liberals are preparing
to make a display of their strength.
Allen is to lead the opposition, and he
piece he is going to speak. The Liberals,
by reason of Governor Thomas, Mayor
Baskin and Mayor Lundy being all OF that
persuasion, and having the appointment
of delegates, will be able to muster up
much greater show of strength than they
are entitled to.
Ex-Mavor Kiesel and Mayor Lundy
have been entertaining a great many of
the most prominent of the visiting dele
gates. and there has been a great deal of
'stuhing' going on outside of the table
menu.
The appointment of Judge Judd as
prosecuting attorney is bitter pill to the
Liberals, and Powers defeat at Wash
ington has greatly exasperated them.
Editor Goodwin is hobbling around

steps on the old anti-Mormon
crutch, but so far his wall has failed to
receive any response from. the outside
delegates, who are no more anxious to
hear the cold story' than they are to
discuss the slavery question.
The friends of statehood had better get
in trim, for the Liberals will make the
most of display of strength.
1t was reported about the Reed hotel
that Mayor Baskin had called meeting
of the Utah delegation to convene at
O'Clock this morning, to consider what
action the delegation would take on the
statehood question.
Allen has got an ally in Judge Pitzer of
Oklahoma, who will cast the vote of that
territory against statehood.
1t may be remarked that Pitzer and
Allen are both Republicans, and that
their actions will not be considered as
worth doughnut by a Democratic con-
gress. However about this, the action of
the Trans Mississippi convention is worth
respecting, and the straights should be
ready for the fight which is sure to be
precipitated.
The Liberals have tried to cover up
their intentions and lead the statehood
people to believe that this matter will not
be called up, so as to throw them off
guard.
The statehood people must come pre-
pared.

CINDERELLA ABROAD.
They Don't Expect to Find Her in Paris,

They Don't Expect to Find Her in Paris,
Though.
A new sort of Cinderella competition,
says the London Post, has been started by
French paper in search of sensation.
A shoe nineteen and one-h half centimetres
(seyen and four-ffth inches) long has
cen specially made, and the lady who
succeeds in putting it on will receive a
handsome present OF plate, and will have
her fame carried throughout the length
and breadth of France. The notion is
said to be Yankee one (?). Experts
are of opinion that the woman
does not exist-in Europe at all
events, for it is necessary to ex-
clude China in competition of this kind
who will be able to fulfill the required
condition. The lady who has been for
many years at the head of the ladies'
boots department at one OF the Paris uni
versal providers declares that in all her
experience she has never seen a woman's
loot only seven and four-fifth inches long.
(The recorder slipper was only seven and
three-fourth inches.) The average
length is twenty-five centimetres to
twenty-five and one-half centlmetres
(ten inches to ten and one-fifth
inches). Oddly enough. it is found
that country girls have feet just
as small as those of their sisters, in town,
although it is true the latter are more
cunning in choosing boots that make the
foot look small.
