ment was formed in Utah, which at
that time comprised part of what Is
now the states of Colorado, Wyo-
ming and Nevada. About forty years
ago attempts were first made to
secure admission for Utah under the
name of the State of Deseret, but
congress declined because of the
practice of polygamy by the Nor
mons, who constituted the bulk of
the population of the region. Pol
ygamy turned the military army of
the government against the Mormons
several years before the conflict Of
1861-65, and the legislative arm was
welded against them with such vigor
afterward that that practice was
made illegal by congress and after
ward abolished by the Mormon
church.
Very few territories had, on ad-
mission to statehood, as large a pop
ulation as Utah has at this time. 1t
had 207, 905 inhabitants in 1890, and
was in this respect fortieth on the
list among the states and territories
taken together. Delaware, Idaho,
Montana, Nevada, North Dakota and
Wyoming among the states have
fewer inhabitants. In area Utah is
slightly larger than Kansas and Min
nesota, and 25 per cent. larger than
Missouri. Polygamy was the cause
of Utah's exclusion from statehood
to this time, but under the act Of
congress the constitution Which is to
be framed must provide by a require
ment, unalterable without the con-
sent Of the United States as well as
of the people OF the state, that all
sorts of religion shall be tolerated
and that plural marriages shall he
forever prohibited. The "twin
relic" appears to have no chance
under this regulation, therefore the
admission of Utah can hardly pro
duce any serious religious or social
problems for the country.

THE STATE OF UTAH.

From the Globe Democrat.
The so-called Utah admission bill,
which the president has just signed,
does not necessarily change that ter
ritory into the forty fifth state Of
the union, for the constitution max
ing which that measure permits will
not begin until March, 1896, and the
constitution will not be submitted to
the people of the territory for rati-
fication until the November follow
ing, or fifteen aud a half months
hence. When ratification takes
place, if the president thinks the
constitution complies with the fed
eral organic law and with the
enabling act of congress, he will
issue a proclamation declaring Utah
a state, There is a chance, however,
that some of the other territories
which are knocking for admission
may get in earlier than this, as the
time for the working of the machin-
cry of the state creation is length
ened out to an unusual extent in
this case.
Utah has helped to make a good
deal of history. 1t forms part of the
territory acquired from Mexico in
1848, and the first settlement of
the Mormons in it took place a year
earlier. In 1850 a territorial govern

LEGEND or THE P.INSY.

FROM The HOUSEHOLDS Magazine.
\ pretty fable about the pansy IL
current among French and German
children. The flower has five petal
and fly" srpals. In most pansies,
especially of the earlier and less
highly developed varieties, two OF
the petals are plain in color and
three of gay cuturs. The two plain
petals have a single sepai, two Of the
gay petals have a -epal each and the
third, which is the largest Of ali, has
two sepals. The fable is that the
pansy represents a family, consisting
of husband and wife and four daugh-
tiers, two Of the latter being step
children of the wife. The plain
petals are the stepchildrcn, with only
one chair; the two small, gay petals
r the daughters, with a chair each,
and the large gay petal is the wife,
with two chairs. To find the father
on must strip away the petals until
the stamens and pistils are bare.
They have r fanciful resemblance to
an old man with a flannel wrap about
his neck, his shoulders appraised and
his feet in a bathtub. The story il
probably of French origin, because
the French call the pansy the step
mother.

WHERE TO PUT THE RUFFLES.

From the Chicago Intcr-Occan.
The pretty notion of a lot of fluffy
ruffies set on the inner side of the
dress skirt and of color to contrast
with the dress is revived again. 1t
gives a dash of color about a girls
heels that is very fetching. The
effect of a demure brown NUNS veil
ing or crepon with a dozen gauze
ruffies in a brilliant plaid Of yellow,
green, scarlet and black about the
ankles on the wrong side is especially
taking. When silk is SO cheap it
scent as if it ought not to be neces-
sary to use shams of any kink, but
two silk skirts may be had for one by
making the skirt above the knees
sham. There is no need of its being
ugly, for it a well be something
that will look as If it had been in
tended. A p%etticoat of baby blue
flannel to the knees and rose color
silk below, set with baby blue silk
%ruffies, will be as pretty as can be
when the dress is off, and when the
dress Is on and lifted a little it will
look quite as we'll az If the silk went
all the way up.

ODDITIES IN ETIQUETTE.

From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
In Holland a lady is expected to
retire precipitately if she should
enter a store or restaurant where
men are congregated. She waits
until they have transacted their bu-i-
ness and departed.
Ladies seldom rise in Spain TO
receive "A male visitor, and they
rarely accompany him to the door,

No Turk will ever enter a sitting
room with dirty shoes. The upper
classes wear tight fitting shoes with
goloshes owe them. The latter,
which receive all the dirt and dust,
are left outside the door. The Turk
~ washes in dirty water. Water
is poured over his hands, so that

In Syria the people " take OFF
their hats or turbans when entering
the house or visiting a friend, but
they always leave their shoes at the
door. There are no mats or scrapers
outside, and the floors inside are
covered with expensive rugs, kept
very clean, in Moslem houses used
20 kneel upon while praying.
In Persia, among the aristocracy,
a visitor sends notice an hour or
two before calling, and gives a days
notice if the visit is N of great i'm
p%ortance. He is met by servants
before he, reaches the house, and
other considerations are shown him
according to relative rank. The left
and not the right is considered the
position of honor.
In Sweden, if you address the
poorest person on the street you
must lift your hat. The same cOur-
tesy is insisted upon if you pass a
lady on the stairway. To enter a
reading room or a bank with ones
hat on is regarded as impolite.

BE KIND.
ih'S Herald

From Messiah's Herald.
"Have you ever noticed" writes
Prof. Drummond, show much of
Christ's life was spent in doing kind
things-in merely doing kind things?
Run over it with that view, and you
will find that he spent a great por-
ton of his time simply in making
people happy, in doing good turns
to people. There is only one thing
greater in the world than happiness,
and that is holiness; and it is not in
our keeping; but what God has put
in our power is the happiness of
those about Us, and that is largely to
be secured by III being kind to
them.
"The greatest thing" says some
one, ga man can do for his heavenly
other children" wonder why it is
that we are not all kinder than we
are? How much the world needs it.
How simultaneously it acts. How
infallibly it is remembered, How
superabundantly it pays itself back,
for there is no doctor in the world
so honorable, so superbly honorable,
as love. Glove never faileth.n
Love is success. Love is happiness.
Love is life. Where love is, God is.

skeleton form, drawing its information
from the recently published biography Of
Henry Clay by carl schur2.
On March 6, 1918, a petition was
presented to the house Of represent
tatives praying that Missouri be adj
mitted as a state. A bill authorizing
the people of Missouri TO form a state
government was taken up in the
house on February ID, 1919, and
Tallmadge of New York moved, rs
an amendment. that the further in.
PRODUCTION Of slavery should be pro-
hibited, and that all children born
within said state should be free at
the age OF twenty five years. Thus
began a struggle which lasted, inter
mittently, until March, 1921.
Tallmadge's amendment aroused at
once alarm and resentment through
out the south and the debate ON
slavery was prolonged and bitter.
1t stirred the passions of men to the
point Of open defiance. Resolutions
earnestly demanding the exclusion
of slavery from Missouri were passed
by all the northern legislatures
except those of New England, though
there the opposition found express
sion in numerous memorials from
towns and cities, The legislature of
Delaware. a slaNc-holding state.
passed resolutions in sympathy with
those of the north, and Il public
meeting in Baltimore did likewise.
On the other hand the legislatures Of
Virginia and Kentucky pronounced
loudly for the admission of Missouri
with slavery, and the MARYLAND leg
islature joined them, Public SYM
pathy was in harmony with them in
the other slave states.
February IS, 1919. the house of
representatives adopted the resolu-
ton restricting slavery. and thus
passed the Missouri bill, But the
