clusion drawn from the experiment was
that muscular exertion makes the blood
poor in sugar, and that an invigoFating
effect is realized from giving even
small amounts Of sugar
All this is important and comedies
with what others have observed. Low
ell Cor Thoreau possibly in one of his
essays tells about some experiences in
the New England mountains. and he
makes special mention of the fact that
the men who had been working long in
the mountains in the lumber camps
seemed to have Unsuitable appetites for
sweets when they emerged from the
mountains. Few occupations exhaust
muscular energy more than logging and
numbering, and if excessive muscular
work impoverishes the blood SO far as
sugar is concerned, this would account
for the loggers and lumbermen being
so ravenously hungry for sweets
In early days in Utah it was a Gus

DUTY ON PERSONAL BAGGAGE.

Much complaint is made by tourists
returning from Europe because of the
searching examination to which their
personal baggage is subjected The rea-
son for this is that the Dingley law only
allows a traveller to bring in one hum
bred dollars worth of personal apparel
free of duty To those who are return
ing from abroad this seems like an out
rage if not a personal indignity. 1t is
in a sense, in the sense that a tariff for
anything but revenue is an outrage,
and all affected by it. These returning
tourists have personal experience Of
the tariff and hence realize just what it
is They know who pays the duty, and
they know that it is not the foreigner.
They pay the duty directly to the gov
ernment and not in an enhanced price
for the goods, as those who have not
been abroad do. Is there any reason
why they should be allowed to bring in
things free, personal apparel or other
things, any more than those who have
remained at home should? After all,
they are really favored, for they are
allowed to bring in a hundred dollars
worth of wearing apparel free, While
those who remain at home are not al
lowed to purchase a single dollars
worth of clothing and bring it in free
That those who have their baggage
searched at the customs house and have
to pay unreasonable tariff rates COM

than those who pay the excessive tariff
duties indirectly. Their fate is the COM

Whatever party may come into power
in this city in November it will have
a serious situation to meet. Economy
in all things will have to be the watch

with all the taxes they can stand.
years to come. There is an immense
debt and the fixed charges upon the
city are simply enormous. Every eff

Indebtedness that these charges may
be lessened. 1t should be the policy
of whatever party may be charged
with the administration of the city's
affairs to make a certain reduction Of
the city's indebtedness each year, and
there should be no departure from such
a policy. To do this will not require
that the efficiency of any department
of the city be impaired or that there
be an absolute cessation of improve
ments, but it does mean that there
must be the most rigid economy in all
branches of tie city government. If
the policy of paying off municipal in
debtedness each year to a certain
amount is once inaugurated the people
will very soon realize the wisdom of

it is not done, the city will yet be so
burdened with debt that it will sink
out of sight, so to speak.

a NEW SURVEYOR GENERAL.

The president has appointed a new
surveyor-general for Utah. It is Judge
Jacob B. Blair, who was probate judge
of Salt Lake county for some years. He

G. w. Snow. Mr.. Snow is a surveyor

SUGAR AS AN AID TO TIRED
MUSCLES.

Almost everybody, including horses,
likes sugar. It is one of the most de-
lightful things in the wc4ld, and not
unlikely this is one of the reasons why
parents deny it to their children, the
same as those of an austere and puri-
tanical nature frown down on all inno-
cent pleasures as wicked; in fact some
people. perhaps many. regard all things
in life that are not rigorous, and severe,
something after the penitential order,
as more or less wicked.
But it has been discovered that sugar
is a very good thing for the human
system and that its effect upon it is
not deIeterious. Mountain climbers
have noticed that when the ascent be-
came very difficult and exhausting
there was an unusual craving Tor
sweets. and that the guides were al
ways eager to eat up all the sugar
there was left. The Prussian war office
took a hint from this and Instituted
an inquiry FOR the purpose Of ascer-
tanning whether the consumption OF
sugar actually does strengthen tired
muscles. The subject upon whom the
experiment was made was kept in ig-
norance of it, On alternate days a
sweet liquid was given him which con
tanned thirty grammes of sugar, and a
similar liquor, containing just enough
saccharine matter to make it resemble
the other in taste. After the subject
had performed a large amount Of mus
euIar labor it was found that much
better results were obtained on the
days when full portion of sugar was
given than on those when merely the
