Many Wonder.

Many wonder how it is that pin
worms and stomach worms get into
little children, or how tape worm
800 feet long, can get in and exist and
grow inside of a man, as it sometimes
happens. They may well wonder, for
it is great mystery. However, many
now know from experience that
Mothers Worm Syrup will rid one OF
intestinal worms and greatly improve
the health after the worms have been
destroyed and expelled. 1t is ALSO.
lutely harmless remedy to take. and
as it only costs 25 cents, all should try
it who suspect worms to be the cause
of their i'll health.

AN INADEQUATE PUNISHMENT
THE PAYsoN GLoBE-HEADER i.

T HE PAYSON GLOBE-HEADER is
L properly indignant over a farcical
prosecution in that city for a violation
of the quarantine laws. 1t is stated
that Garry Stevens, after breaking all
proper and reasonable regulations and
exposing a number of people to small
pox contagion, was allowed to plead
guilty and was let off by justice of
the peace with a fine of only s.. This
the Header holds to be entirely
inadequate. After reviewing the case,
it says:
1t was nothing short of a farce, and
il our city affairs, especially when the
health of the community is at stake,
are TO be made a farce of, then it is
time that something should be done to
govern such cases. AS it now stands
it will be difficult to prosecute people
if they do this same class of thing. for
they can easily run down to the JUS
tice and plead guilty. when the board
of health gets to crowding them, and
pay their fine, anything from $3.50 to
So. The. council has now appointed a
man to see that the quarantine law is
observed, but we can tell him he has
his hands full"
Certainly a fine of only IS seems al
together too light a punishment for a
man who has exposed his neighbors to
a loathsome and dangerous disease. 1t is
entirely probable that the magistrate
who inflicted the penalty in this case
has sentenced many a petty larceny Of
fender to months in Jail. 1t is likely
that he has imposed fines of far great
er amount for disorderly conduct And
yet the man who steals a few dollars
worth of provisions or a little money,
or the man who becomes intoxicated
and boisterous, is far less dangerous to
the community than the man Who goes
about with his clothing full OF disease
germs and sOws them right and left.
There are entirely too many offenders
against the quarantine laws in Utah.
and they have been encouraged in their
course through the complaisance of
magistrates who, through political or
other reasons, deliberately shut their
eyes to the enormity of the offenses.
Smallpox, diphtheria. scarlet fever and
other communicable diseases are spread
largely through criminal carelessness.
When clear cases can be made out the
defendants should be punished to the
extreme limit of the law.
