The Quiet of Farm Life.

Many complain of the eonfine-
ment Of farm life, and especially
at night they must be at home.
Statistics show that nIne-tenths
of the crimes committed in the
world are done between sunset
and sunrise Blessed rather Is
the farmers family, safe from
temptation and secure in the
pure influence Of home. Let Us
bald our homes sending forth
a moral and religious influence,
a spot that Will be remembered
with pleasure by cur children
In the years to come a quiet re
treat IN which to entertain our
friends, a rest for the weary
traveller and stranger, an honor
to the community In which we
live, and we can say we have
made the farm pay-Farmer's
Review.

CAUSE AND EFPECT.

1t is not always easy to determine
what has caused many things that we
see existing all around US; some causes
are tIaceable from their effects, but in
the greatest number of cases causes
are so concealed that honest men diff
fer widely in their opinions as to the
causes producing certain results.
A reaction in business has set in;
something has caused it; We think the
very limited reduction of the tariff un-
der the operation of the Wilson law has
q great deal to do with it.
We unhesitatin2ly assert that the
causes of the late financial depression
were extravagant expenditure. high
tariffs and the demonstration of sill
yer. People are more economical,
tariffs are reduced little. hence times
are little better, and if we can get
the volume of the circulating medium
increased we will again be prosperous.
As times improve people look around
with feelings of pleasure and hope,
and are seeing the mistake many
made by supposing that the
hard times we have had were caused
by democracy, and we look for tidal
.waFC vi democracy sweeping all before
il this coming election. The very air
is filed with predictions of democra tic
victory this fall. This has a cause
which in Utah is not single for there
are Several causes.
The incompetency of the republican
legislature is well known, it is stamped
upon the memory of every obseryant
person. The fact that all the most
important features of the state con-
stitutlon are directly the effect of the
laboIs of the democrats in the conYen-
ton; recollections of the truth that
during all the past Utah has found
a greater number of friends in the
democratic than in in the republican
party; our rejoicing that Utah is about
to become state under democratic
auspices; the swelling of the tide of
returning prosperity, and the natural
instinct of the masses of the people
leading them towards the party of the
masses, all point to grand victory in
November.
All these causes are operating and
the natural result may be confidently
expected.
The Evening dispatch. [volume] (Provo, City, Utah) 1891-1895, 1895-09-19
A Timely Rpminder

Each season forces upon our consider
ation its own peculiar perilS to health.
The advent OF fall finds many reduced
in strength and Yigor, poorly prepared
to continue the business of life. The
stomach and bowels, the great highway
of animal economy, is especially liable
TO disorder in the fall. The nervous
system has also suffered in the struggle.
Typhoid fever and malaria in partic,
ular find in the fall that combination
of earth, air and water that mark this
season as especially dangerous. The
falling leaves, the decaying vegetables
contribute their share of contsmina-
ton. Hood e Sarsaparilla furnishes a
most valuable safeguard at these i'm
portant points, and should be used in
the fall before serious sickness has laid
you low.

4 H:oy Who Could Not BE Frightened by .
DispIeased Corpse Professors Tricks-
DR.. McTavish Of Edinburgh was some
thing of a ventriloquist, and it befelI
that he wanted lad to assist in tbs

plications, and when telling lad wha.

nerves, he would say, while pointing TO
q grinning skeleton standing upright In

TO feed the skeleton there, and while
you are here you may as we'll try to do

A few lads would consent to a trial
and received basin of hot Cruel and a
spoon. While they were pouring the
hot mess into the skull the doctor would
throw his voice SO as to make it appear
to proceed from the jaws of the bony
customer and gurgle out, ''Br-r-r grub
that's hotP'
This was too much, and without ex.
ception the lads dropped the basin and
