MODEL TOWN IN UTAH
PUBLIC SPIRIT SHOWN THAT is
WORTHY OF EMULATION.
Perfected System of City Government
That Is without Parallel-onicials
Decline to Receive Salaries for Their
Work.

There is one town in the United
States whose inhabitants do not hun
ger for the flesh pots of other commu-
mites laying claim to higher de-
gree of culture. The place is named
Vernal and it is situated not far from
the reservation of the Uintah Indians
in Utah. One of its attractions Is
that there has never been any local tax
levied on the townspeople, for the rea-
son that the sensible system of city
government provides perfectly ade-
quate income without the necessity
of taxation. Nothing is given away
by the city government of Vernal. If
any franchises or privileges are desired
they must be paid for and paid for at
full value. Saloons are looked upon
as luxury that can be dispensed with,
but as the town is not a total abstin-
ence community the saloons are al
lowed to exist by the payment of a
large fee to the treasury.
Crime is taxed to the utmost. Fines
rather than Imprisonment are the
punishment for evildoers. Instead of
a prisoner being supported for term
at the expense of the city he is mulcted
the enormity of the offense and the
money goes into tho towns excheauer.
In this way the burden of the city's
expenses is placed on the shoulders of
those who deserve to be made to bear
1t and the well-behaved citizen instead
in Jail actually benefits by his wrong
doer in being compelled to support him
in Jail actually benefits by his wrong
doing in the absence of taxation.
So proud are the citizens of Vernal
of their model town that the city Off
cials almost Invariably turn back into
the treasury the amounts received for
salary The only man who is really
paid by the town for his work is the
city marshal, who devotes his whole
time to the duties of his office.
AS might be expected the town Is
splendidly laid out, possessing miles OF
asphalted streets, one of the finest
school buildings in the west and ample
means for the building of more as they
are needed No breath of suspicion
has ever been directed at the officials
of the town. Their action in refusing
to receive salaries might in itself dl-
vert any suspicion of "boodling.' The
town numbers about 1000 persons and
as it's admirable system of government
is attracting numbers to take up their
residence there it is probable that it
will emerge from comparative op-
security during the next few years and
become one of the most important
cities of the west.

The w..t Tested Roosevelt


On Mr.. Roosevelt's famous cam
paigning trip across the country in
the fall of 1900, it became apparent
that some of the plainsfolk were hard
ly satisfied that what they had heard
of the candidate for vice president was
not too good to be true. So there
developed a unique system for the en-
tertainment of the distinguished
guest. He was mounted on the most
spirited-and not always the most
thoroughly broken-horse in the
neighborhood and was invited to go
for a ride with a number of eminent
citizens who wanted to show him the
country" Sooner or later in the course
of that ride he would be decoyed to
a stretch of open plain; the pace
would be gradually increased until the
ride became a breakneck race IN
which only the stoutest-hearted and
steadiest-headed riders could hold
their own. Time and again did this
occur and no one was less disturbed
by the practice than was Gov. Roose-
velt-May Ladies' Home Journal.

An Iced River In May.

1t was the Sth of May last year be-
fore the ice jam in the great lakes was
broken and marine traffic was resumed.
At the lower end of Lake Huron it is
estimated that the ice was fifteen
miles across and extended unbroken
to the foot of the lake.
1t was a strange scene that greeted
the dwellers along the st. Clair river
during this ice jam, and every day
the electric line of cars running be-
tween Detroit and Port Huron took
out loads of excursionists to see the
sight. The banks of the river were
green with grass, and the foliage made
the landscape charming. Yet the river
itself was one great mass of crystal
hummocks and resembled glacier.
Meanwhile the women, in summer
dresses and with supshades, gazed and
gossiped Oh the silent crafts in mid
stream that were held by the ice. At
night when the boats We're Illuminated

FINGER NAILS.

Long nails indicate ideality and an
artistic temperament.
Short nails, thin and fiat at the base.
indicate a weak action of the heart.
Long nailed people are apt to be
very visionary and hate to face disa-
greeable facts.
Short nails, very fiat and sunk, as it
were, into the flesh at the base, are a
sign of diseased nerves.
Short nails, very fiat and inclined to
curve out or lift up at the edges. are
the forerunners of paralysis.
Short nailed persons make good crit
les. They are sharper and more log
ical than long nailed people and usual
ly more positive in assertion.
Long nails never indicate such great
physical strength as short, broad ones.
Very long finger nailed persons are apt
to have delicate chests and lungs.
Long nails. very wide at the top and
blush in appearance, denote bad cir
culation. Long nailed men and wom-
en- are less critical and more impress

English-Boer war:
A regiment of Scottish highanders
noted for their bravery In action dur
ing the heat of one battle were sudden
ly seen to break ranks and run in all
directions. The officers as well shared
in the stampede and apparently made
no attempts to urge the men under
them into line. Their behavior was q
surprise to everybody on the field and
after the battle was over the colonel
of the regiment was summoned before
General Roberts.
"What the devil was the matter with
your regiment?" asked "Bobs."
WELL" replied the colonel, there is
not a man in the regiment afraid Of a
