A School of Millinery.

In the last years of the nineteenth
century everything seems TO tend to-
ward schools of some sort. There are
classes for almost everything under
the sun, with competent teachers and
enthusiastic students. The latest ad-
dition, says the New York Mail and
Express, is the New York millinery
school. The curriculum occupies three
months and covers every branch OF
the business, from purchasing raw
materials to presenting bills.
The school fits young women for the
calling and also perfects the educa-
ton of those already in trade who are
not up TO date or who have had no
experience in certain lines of work.
II would surprise anyone to learn
what a wide knowledge should be
possessed by a milliner who desires to
hold a first-class position. There are
hundreds of raw materials, each one
of which must be familiar to the user:
there are hundreds of styles; there
are hundreds of unwritten conven-
tionalismS; there are more than two
score fashion sheets and trade jour-
mails in English, French and German.
Add to all these varying elements
personal tastes and local customs and
you have a very broad field for any
one to cover. The school, which has
thriven from the first, is managed by
Mrs. Southland.

Deputy Recorder Hull contradicted
the statement made in morning

proceedings or that he said that be-
yond doubt the ordinance would be re-
pealed. The council, says Mr.. Hull, is
the only authority on that statement.
The irrigation committee last night
decided to purchase a piece of land in
Parley's canyon for $1,000, which,
under control, will stop the driving of
sheep over that route.
Poor and INDECENT people formed g.

decided that it is the duty of the
county court TO attend to these cases.

DR.. Wright, county physician, has d
situation on his hands which is indeed
hard to cope with. An endemic of diph-
liberia prevails in South Jordan precinct,
and already several deaths have occurred.
On Wednesday DR.. Wright visited the
place and inaugurated system Of
quarantine.
The people down there, however, do
not seem to appreciate the gravity of the
situation. A report was received yes
terday evening to the effect that
patient. a young child. died on the day
he made his visit and in opposition to all
regulations a public funeral was held.
1t is further reported that dozen, or
more. of the playmates of the little one
were permitted to kiss the corpse. This
condition is simply an appalling one when
the virulence of this disease is considered.
Diphtheria is contagious and the strict
est of rules ought to prevail regarding its
control. The good people of South Jordan
would do well to endeavor to stop this
kind of proceedings.
DR.. Wright will visit the place again to-
day and will insist upon his mandates
being obeyed. even If he has to invoke
the aid of the law in carrying out his
orders. The lives of little ones are too
precious to be sacrificed unnecessarily,
and this practice will surely result dis
astrously.

o. SNARE of Hanpiue.s.

Each human being, from the moment
consciousness awakens until the day of
his death. feels instinctively that he
has a right to happiness. When he is
young he confidently expects to get it.
Further along in life he begins to have
a baffied feeling that he has somehow
missed It Later this feeling sinks into
a settled despair of ever getting it, or
else into furious protest against fate.
that he of all human beings was APP
pointed TO lose his inheritance.
But when we are young we are
ignorant of the fact, and when we get
older we perhaps forget it. that happi-
ness is a spirited quality and to be
obtained only according TO spiritual
laws. We cannot purchase happiness
with money as we may buy a yard Of
cloth or an estate. We cannot take
1t by force from another as we may
steal his coat. Nor can we gain it by
wheedling or cheating another man out
of his rightful share, expecting to make
1t our own.
For happiness is but the delicate per-
fume arising from the sum total Of all
human delights. Each mans share Of
1t is the same, and can never be
greater than any other mans share.
AS it cannot be bought so it cannot be
paid for. But those who refuse to add
to the general stock Of happiness while
expecting still to claim their share,
sill find themselves outwitted by ma
ture. Their inner senses become dull.
and then closed entirely. They become
incapable of perceiving happiness.
They never obtain 1t, not because It
IS not there. but because they no
longer see that it is there!-Harper's
Razar
