A Good Word For the Mormon.

Bishop Leonard (EpiscopaD Of Salt
Lake City says: The Mormons are not
nearly as bad as they are represented
to be. A great many people think that
polygamy Is still going on and flourish
ing under the protection Of the Nor
mon church, but that is not 80. The
church has given its word that it is not
fostering polygany. and l think it
should be taken at its word. There Is
much talk about the Mormons spread
ing out and preaching their doctrines
In other states. Why shouldn't they ?
I say 1t Is to the credit of the church
that it is So and | am not going to
criticise adversely because it is more
industrious than other churches. The
Mormons are good people. AS to polyg-
amy. time and education will right

with the necessities of fiercely com
petitive civilization. If observed, it
tends not only to render the struggle

them out from many forms OF indus

whole people by combining them to COM
parattvely few occupations
But, leaving on one side the people

coed as individuals is equally illusory.

world live in Russia, and, according to
the most recent statistics, the value Of
the average possessions Of n Russian
Jew is under IS. The average Rouma-
Man Jew has not even 81. In Persia,

Needed Praying For.

A quaint pngpong story comes from
the south of Scotland. A young min
lister and his spouse purchased a ping
pong kit and INDUCED in the game ev-
cry lawful evening. Their servant fell
i'll, and her place was taken for the
nonce by her fourteen-year-old sister,
a maiden of the serious and outspoken
order.
One morning the minister gravely OBJ
served to the girl, "Jessie, hope you
say your prayers every night"
AYE, l dae that. sir! Last NIGHT I
prayed for you an the mistress"
Indeed, Jessie; why!" queried the
reverend gentleman.
Jessie without hesitation responded,
while pointing CONTEMPORARY to the
pingpong appliances, "Sir, when l see
you an the mistress sac far left tae
yersers as tae play at that nonsense,
I'm thinkin' that ye bath sair need

THE LONG DAYS or THE YEAR

The long days of the year.
How sweet they are TO the ear!
The happy birds begin them before
awake from sleep,
And tenderly they are ended by the voices
of the sheep,
Coming home in the twilight Oh. happy
child that | am,
Reused by bird in the morning and lul-
ed at night by a lamb.
The long days Of the year,
How fair to the eye and dear.
The grass is thick in the meadows, the
branches heavy with leaves.
And gaily the roses are running up 10 the
cottage caves,
Sleeping the porch in perfume. Oh, low
ing could | be,
When thick and rosy and fragrant my
joys are coming to me.

In the Thirty-nine Articles of the

for edification, and in most of the older
