MYSTERY TEAS.
There II Lots of Fun and Novelty in
the Latest Fad for House
Parties.

Givers of house parties have devised a
new entertainment this fall which has
such a lot of mystery about it, calls for
so much guessing, and is altogether
such fun" that the young people have
voted it the best thing done this year.
1t is called mystery tea," and the
mystery lies in the items of the menu
card, which is given to each guest, who
must order dishes from it. Getting up
this card requires much ingenuity on
the part of the hostess. Everyday,
commonplace dishes must be so mys-
teriously named as to be entirely mis-
leading to the guest. When these dishes
are served the fun commences, for
many guests find they have indeed or
dered light refreshments.
IAN after-dinner delicacy," for ex-
ample, turns out to be toothpick.
Russian revels'' prove to be a cup of
tea. "A product Of the desert" is found
to mean only plain, ordinary sand
wich, and IN "Oriental square" a Jap
anese paper napkin.
Guests at mystery teas" are asked
to appear in oriental costume, or to
represent some character in fiction.

and guessing to the affair.-N. Y. Her.

tie do that themselves.
On the margin of the Great Salt Lake
there is a deposit of aout 10000 tons
of salt, and the accumulation is about
10000 tons yearly. The margin is
dotted with salt FORMS" like thickly
settled mining camp. These farmers
gather the salt, or solution, and when
the brine has been extracted by either
steam process or solar heat the pure
salt is sold to the cattle barons, and at
very low figures. Large quantities are
shipped to packers at Chicago and Mis-
souri, river points. This raw mate
rial," which can be had at small cost,
or for the trouble of gathering it, is an
important item in the Utah cattle bar
on's favor, and perhaps adds no little
to the increase of the number of
ranches" in this state.
The cattle industry has largely de-
veloped. Within the past few years,
and from small ranches, Utah now has
live cattle barons with ranches of thou
sands of acres in extent, and cattle upon
every hill and in every valley. At first
the cattle raiser buys few acres, or
takes ''squatter's right" on public
ands. He buys few ''scrubby" cattle
and turns them loose. He can take care
of $50 cattle. When his ''bunch" grows,
he hires cowboy at about $25 a month
and found" AS the cattle increase,
he adds cowboy to each $50, and in
few years he expands into cattle

according to the respective wealth of
the rancher. Cattle raising is not only
one of the most profitable industries in
the west, but it is attended with less
risks, and there is less labor involved
than in most occupations of equal mag
nitude.
The loss from drought, strays and
accidents ranges from five to ten per
cent. yearly. The cows of this state
and of Oregon are said by cattlemen to
be far superior to those of other To-
calities. !.

the race courses: In the meantime
their wealth is increasing almost be-
yond their ability to spend it. They
do not know how many cattle they
own, and are often swindled by their
managers, who render false statements.
Another loss is from the ''rustlers.''
There are gangs of these cattle thieves
extending from the northern line of
Utah through to Arizona, and they
prey upon the cattle barons. When
