THE MIDSUMMER CARNIVAL.

Indications are that the mfd-sum-
tainly should be. 1t should be state
affair, for it will be forty-nfne years,
within twenty days, next Fourth of
July, since Utah was settled by that
gallant band of pioneers of whom there
are so few left. Think what history
this country has made since them And
Of that history Utah has been part,
unique part. There is not a citizen of
the state VINO is not proud of it, and
justly So All see for it great future.
What could be more fitting shan

Discussing the divergence of views in
the Democratic party on the money
question, the ST. Louis Globe Democrat
remarks: The only hope of averting
split lies, therefore, in the construc-
ton of a platform that will satisfy
both elements, which is TO say one that
can be construed to mean either one
thing or the other" That is about the
most improbable thing that will happen
a Chicago. 1t would satisfy no one,
settle nothing and postpone to future
time question that mus ultimately be
settled one way or the other.

IN A NUTSHELL.

1t never hurts truth any to be slapped
in the face,
The worst robbers do not carry clubs.
God is not in the religion that does
nothing for the good of men.
1t costs much less to be contented
than 1t does to be unhappy.
Faith in God is the best cure known
for worry.
Why is it that so many people love to
tell bad news?
A counterfeit is a sure evidence that
there is a genuine.
Whatever Christ did for himself he can
do for us.
No matter how much religion we pro-
fess, all that counts is what we live.
Whatever God gives us to do he will
help us to do.
A woman can be the devils best friend
or his worst enemy.
A Christian helps the cause of God not
SO much by what he says as by what
he is.
The cause of God is never helped by
pointing to the cross with a frown on the
face.
A rich man may give the Lord too lit
tie, but a poor one cannot give too much.
