David's wives and concubines were
given unto him, of me, by the hand of
Nathan my servant, and others of the
prophets who had the keys of this power;
and in none of these things did he sin
against me, save in the case of Uriah and
his wife; and therefore he hath fallen
from eXaltation and received his portion;
and he shall not inherit them out of this
world; for L gave them unto another,
saith the Lord. And verify, verify 1 say
unto you, whatsoever you seal on earth
shall be sealed in heaven.

All young men in the Mormon church
are expected at some time or other to go
on a three years mission, and President
Shows son, who is now twenty-four
years old, was summoned in the regular
way. He was asked by the presidency
of the church to prepare himself for "A
three years mission to Germany. If he
had refused he would have lost standing.
But he did not care to refuse. he was
too good Mormon. And so, without
purse or scrip" he started out. The
church does not furnish money for these
missions. The devout propagandist is
expected to depend entirely upon his own
resources. On his way to New York
young Snow stopped to see his fathers
birthplace in Mantua, o. Eight miles
from there in the village Of Auburn he
found number of his fathers relatives,
and one evening was introduced to Miss
Maude M. Ford, who was an accom-
pliShed musician.
When Miss Ford found that this quiet,
dark young man was a Mormon she was
astounded. Her ideas of Mormon were
rather vague: She was reasonably sure
that they didn't have horns but her
mind had never entertained the image of
one without Whiskers.
This tWenty-four-year-o Mormon did
not forget for an instant that he was on
a mission. The two became deeply in
tereSted in each other, and he immedi-
ately began to talk b1ormonism to her,
She scoffed at first. She told him she
d1dn,t propose to be any old Mormon's
third or fifteenth wife, and that it was a
