At the Tabernacle.

George Q. Cannon was the speaker
at the tabernacle yesterday, taking as
a text the passages on faith in the
eleventh chapter of Paul's epistle to
the Hebrews. He said: This chap
ter which 1 have just read is wonder
fully suggestive and encouraging to
the Latter-day Saints. 1t signifies that
the heavenly father has great things
in store for those who have faith. 1
doubt If ever ON tire earth there has
been so little faith as at the present
time, in spite of the profession that we
hear Wanted on every side.
We look too much with our natur-
al, and not enough with our spiritual
eyes. When we go upon missions we
are impressed with faith the more we
speak to others. But when we return
we begin to look upon faith in an
other light, and fall into different ways.
We have proven by experience indi-
vidually and as a people that our God
is a God of miracles. That prayers
have been answered, help has been Civ
en-, miracles performed too numerous
to mention. throughout the history of
this people, and all through faith The
question is now being agitated whether
means. or without having money sent
to him and preach the gospel in anoth-
er place without any money whatever.
Il should like to see our elders go
out as in the old days without any
money or the expectation OF it as God
would wish. l understand that there
are certain countries in which means
are necessary owing to certain condi-
tons. When L and others went out
in the old days. we went without purse
or scrip. / never begged, [ never had
occasion to ask for anything from any
one but the Lord, and always I was
clothed fed and given money. A
missionary goes out to test people, and
l have always charged my sons to go
- their missions without purse or
scrip. -iNlT el'vs

simple reason that there was no money
at home to send. When the Latter-day
Saints were crossing the plains [ was

uncle where they were going. He did
not know. no one knew, except that
they were going to Upper California.
which this country was called before
the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. IT
reminded me then of Abraham leaving
his native country.
II suppose there are those in this
congregation who hooked down upon
this barren valley. The servant of the
Lord said this is the place, the people
said yes and the city was built.
Faith accomplished all this. and has
this faith degenerated? The people
should look down upon the great works
accomplished and faith should be re-
doubled. God has restored the ancient
power to us. and through the exercise
of faith we shall receive more of his
gifts and more power"

Japanese Explorers.

Japan has keen explorers. The pro- lessor of astronomy in the University of Tokio, MT. Nomaka, accompanied by his wife, last October ascended Mount Fujiyama. 13,OCO feet high, to make meteorological observations in the course of the winter. A short time ago word was received that the professor was dying, and relief expedition was fitted out. With great difficulty the members of the expedition reached the snow-covered hut. Prof. Nonaba was found to be exceedingly weak and un- able to move, but his wife had suffered no evil results from the exposure. No maka was taken back to Tokio, but he declares he will return next winter, and his wife says she will accompany him again. s

LET DOWN EASY.
How 8 Fair Guest DIvined the Governors
 Intentions.


 When MT. Tilden was occupying the gubernatorial chair of the state of New York and had under consideration the appointment of judge a friend of Judge Peckham, who was a candidate for the place, was urging the judges claim, and besought the assistance of d lady, who at that time happened to be a visitor at the gubernatorial mansion. Although at that time everything seemed reasonably to indicate the ap- pointment of Judge Peckham, the lady assured her questioner that his caHdi- date had no chance whatsoever. Sure enough, another man was appointed, and in the course of time it came about that Gov. Tilden learned of the surpris- ing prescience of his fair guest. He asked her how she was able to divine his intentions so clearly in regard to this particular man. Why" she said, that was not difficult. You brought him home to dinner one day and that of itself made me suspect. Then at the table you set before him your choice Johan- nisberg wine, and knew from that mo- ment that he had no chance of appoint ment. The man who has your Johan- nisberg is to be let down easy"

KISSING OF HANDS TABOOED.
Hygienfc Reasons Lead to Abandonment
 of an Austrian Custom.


 of an Austrian Custom.
 It has hitherto, says the New Orleans Picayune, been the custom of the chil- dren attending the public schools in Austria and Hungary to kiss the hands Of the teacher on arrival and departure This has now been forbidden by an order from the imperial board of edu- cation, which bases it's action on the fact that sanitary investigation has shown that kissing is unhealthful and should not be. practiced, except when absolutely necessary. This brings up a very nice point of law to establish when kissing is absolutely necessary. If the public school teachers of Aus tria and Hungary are old and ugly it is likely that the scholars will acquiesce in the new ruling without a murmur. If, on the other hand, the schoolmarms are pretty young women, like most of the New Orleans teachers, then the big boys in Austrian schools may keep up the good old custom of kissing the

VlCISSITUDES OF LIFE.
Sequel to an Experience of 8 Struggling

Sequel to an Experience of Struggling
 Young Author.
 "You remember my telling you awhile ago, when we were talking about the vicissitudes of life,' said strug- gling young author, according to the New York Sun, about an experience that 1 had once? l had a. number of manuscripts, you remember, which I desired to sell and which I sent out to the publications I thought them best suited for One after another they came back, until they had all come back but one. That one, in my own judgment, was much the best of the lot, and I had built strong hopes upon it; and when, so to speak. it still didn't come back. felt sure that it had been accepted. But after waiting awhile longer and not hearing from it. I wrote, asking about it, and the publisher wrote me polite note saying they had no record of it; it had never been received.
 That was the story as I told it to you, and supposed that that was the end of it; and it was pretty tough, wasn't it? But now let me tell you the sequel.
 -'Of course I wrote a polite note in reply to the publisher; and in that note I described the manuscript and said that perhaps it might yet be found; and later it was found, and, by snakes, they returned it!
 "That was solemn; but it was one of those things that are so everlastingly, gosh-blastedly solemn that you have to laugh over 'em; and there can't be anything very terrible in anything that you can laugh over; so, you see, come to take it altogether, that experience was not very distressing after all."

Science is going too far, anyway, when it finds microbes in kisses and tries to establish a quarantine against them Kissing goes by favor, and not by law. When the kisser is in love and the kissee IS pretty. it is always case of abso- lute necessity. not amenable to Austrian or any other kind of laws.

MOST PECULIAR ROOSTER.
He Very Much Resembles a Bird of Par
 adise.

adise.
 To see arooster that resembles a bird of paradise is a rare sight, but such a one has recently been a common spec tacle in Japan, says the New York World
 This particular fowl was, apart from his gorgeous appendage, of the ordinary type found in Japan, except that he was a little more proud in his bearing than his fellows.
 Itmay have been his manner that first led to his selection as the bearer of a most magnificent tail. The brief history that can be obtained of this freak rooster is silent on that point. It prob ably was selected because only an arro- gant, lordly manner could support such wonderful and variegated appendage. Be that as it may, the rooster did cer- tainly have tail 16 feet long. In it were all the bright colors imaginable. The tail was far more brilliant in it's color ings than the shining feather-fan of d peacock.
 The neighbers of the Jap displayed no interest in the freak bird, but were amused by those who expressed admira- tion and wonder, who were invariably foreign travellers.
 Then it was discovered that the beau tiful long tail was not freak of nature, but the clever work of the ingenious Jap, who had fashioned and fastened the tail in such way as to defy detection except after the most minute scrutiny.

But, notwithstanding they are now in tn city itself, there are few lots for sale yet at prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine" of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of a dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new elec- tric car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property.
