preston OF individual eccentrcity on

acts from impulse, and in this partlc-

from a creditable hatred of hypocrcy.

If our hotel and boarding house
keepers would unite and make con-
certed effort TO advertise this Sec
tion it would no doubt prove a great
benefit to them all. They each
spend a considerable sum every
year in advertising their own
particular house and send out in
dividual circulars or booklets which
may or may not attract the fancy Of
a proposed visitor here. If it does
not he seeks some other resort, per:
haps without further investigating
this region, and his visit and infu-
ence is thus lost. If on the contrary
those interested would unite and
send out booklet containing views
of this section with a page devoted
TO each house the person receiving
would have before him a panorama
of the situation and could perhaps
make satisfactory selection of
summer home.
If advertising is done in city
papers it would be more attractive
to have all advertisers in this valley
take part of a page together 30 that
the reader could at glance see just
what was offered. We call atten-
TO this because we believe that ad
vertising in this manner would be
cheaper and much more effective.
Do not try to make city people be.
lieve that yours is the only place
here, help each other by advertising
each other.
It would be an excellent idea to
have a meeting and discuss this
matter. Suppose you who are
directly interested meet and talk it
over.

The pook q mormon

The Honesdale Citizen in brief
resume gives the following facts
concerning Mormonism and quotes
an opinion of the Bethany Inquirer :
President Smith, in his evidence
before the Senate investigation, said
that the revelation on which plural
marriages are based was written at
Nauvoo in 1s4S by Joseph Smith,
and was taught by Smith to Brigham
Young and others. But owing to
fierce opposition and violence by
mobs which resulted in the martyr
dom of Smith it was not publicly
proclaimed. Brigham Young took
the revelation to Salt Lake and it
was publicly proclaimed In 1852 as a
doctrine of the church. What was
thought of the Book of Mormon in
1880, when it first appeared, may be
inferred from the following article
which appeared in the Bethany
Inquirer in May of that year. It
win be remembered that it was at
Lanesboro that old Joe Smith had
his vision and started the Mormon
nonsense;
BLAsPHEAIY-Tbe Book Of Nor
mon, alias The Golden Bible. The
Book Of Mormon has been placed in
our hands. A viler imposition was
never practiced. 1t is an evidence
Of fraud, blasphemy and credulity
shocking toa Christian and moralist.
The author and proprietor is one
Joseph Smith Jr. a fellow who, by
some hocus pocus acquired suoh an
influence over a wealthy farmer of
Wayne county, that the latter mort
gagged his farm for 50 900, which he
paid for printing and binding 5000
copies of this blasphemous work.
The volume consists Of about 500
pages, and is divided into the books
Of Nephi, Jacob, Mosiah, Alma.
Mormon, Etter and Helaman.

The British Museum Lottery.
In connection with the contemplated
extension Of the British Museum at a
cost Of about f2OOO 900 It is interesting
to note that the original funds for the
establishment of the institution were
raised by a lottery. II was authorized
by an act Of parliament passed In 1853.
and the Archbishop OF Canterbury, the
lord chancellor, and the speaker were
the managers and trustees, each Of
them being authorized by the act to
receive an honorarium Of f1OO for the
trouble. The amount OF the lottery
was 100000 raised by f3 tickets, to
provide 100000 for prizes varying in
value from E1O,OOO to E1O. and E1OO,-
600 for the purchase Of the Sloane col
lectlons and the Harleian Library
the nucleus Of the museum-and for
the provision of suitable cases for
such acquisitions, and Of house room
and attendants. The operations OF
one peter Leheup, ESQ.," made the
lottery notorious. He fraudulently
'cornered" the tickets, 6,OOO or so OF
them passing by his aid to q Sampson
Gideon, who sold them at premium
An inquiry into the matter instituted
by the House OF Commons resulted in
the prosecution by the attorney gem
eral Of Leheup for a violation Of the
act and breach of trust The penalty
was a fine Of e1,OOO but this, II would
seem, was by no means excessive, as
