TO PREVENT CHIMNEY FIRES.

Chief Engineer Horton, of the
Baltimore Fire Department, says
that the burning of zinc, soda or
sulphur in stove or furnace will
extinguish a chimney fire and al.
so clean the chimney. He has
been making series of tests for
some time in this direction aud
has found this simple solution of
the chimney fire evil to be very
efficient aud successful.
According to the chief, 1t is the
fumes that extinguish the flames
and cause the SCOT to fall. He
SAID it was not a new discovery,
especially with sulphur, but that
ii. was a means by which any
householder could prevent an EN-.
bryo fire.

Pluck.

There is seldom line of glory
written upon the earth's face but
a line of suffering seems parallel
with it; and they who read the
lustrous syllables of the one, and
stop not to decipher the spotted
and worn inscription of the other
get the lesser half of the lesson
earth has to give. The hopless-
ness of any one accomplishing
anything without pluck, is illus
trated by an old East India fable,
ga mouse that dwelt near the
abode of a great magician, was
kept in such constant distress by
it's fear Of the cat, that the magi-
clan taking pity on it, turned it
into a cat itself. I'm medlately 1t
began to suffer from it's fear of a
dog; so the magician turned it in
to dog. Then it began to suf.
fer from fear of a tiger, and the
magician turned 1t into a tiger.
Then it began to suffer from fear
Of the huntsman; and the magi-
clan, in disgust, said BE amouse
again: as you have only the heart
of a mouse; it is impossible to
help you by giving, you the body
of nobler animal, and the poor
creature again became a mouse" "
1t is the same with mouse
hearted man. He may be clothed
with power, and placed IN the
position of a brave man, but he
will always act like a mouse; and
public opinion is usually the great
magician that finally says to such
person, $50 back to your OBJ
scurity again; you have only the
heart of a mouse, and it is USE
less to try to make lion of you"
Many depend on luck instead
of pluck. The "p" left off that
word makes all the difference
The English say, Luck is ALL
that it is better TO be born lucky
than wise. The Spanish-''The
worst pig gets the best acorn
The French-"A good home new
falls to good dog. The aevSfias
-"Pitch the lucky man into the
Nile, and he will come up with a
fish in his mouth. " -
Fortune, success; fame, posi-.
tion, are never gained but by pi-
ously, determinedly, bravely
sticking-livins Ia a thing till il
is fairly accomplished IN short,
you must carry thing through
If you want TO be anybody or any
thing. No matter if it do cost you
the pleasure, the society, the
thousand petty qualifications OF
life,-no matter for these, stick
to the thing and carry it through,
Believe you were made for the
matter and that no one else, can
do it; put forth your whole ener'
gies; be awake; electrify your
self; go forth to the task. Only
once learn to carry a thing
through in ali its completeness
and proportion, and'you will be,
come hero. You will think bet
ter of yourself; others will think
better of you. The world, in It's
very heart, ad mires the stern de.
termlned doer it sees in him its
best sight; ITS brightest object;
its richest treasure. Drive right
along, then, in whatever you un-
dertake. Con sider yourself am.
ply sufficient for the deed, and
you will succeed.

llshment Of good government That
Is the truth. The trouble with some

THE HEADLINE FlEND.

The bitter hatred OF the Tribune
against the Church IS very conspicuous
IN It's headlines. It exudes all over but
from the alleged news display Il falls In
big round drops OF undluted venom
A notable instance Is the manner IN
which the testimony Of Mrs. Ellis at
Washington is presented, The poor
creature who has sold his talents for
that special kind Of falsiAcatlon states
An his headlines that Mrs, Ellis Tells
Of One Instance Iof polygamyl, aud
that Joseph Smith married Her Hus-
band TO Miss Hamln.'
That Is given as the substance Of the
testimony Of Mrs Ellis.
BY reading the Associated Press dis
patch which is introduced by those
lines, anyone can see that Mrs. Ellis
testified to the opposite Of what they
contain. She said according to the
synopsis Of the Associated Press repre-
sentative, that she could not testify
from her own knowledge as 10 who per-
formed the ceremony; but that she had
supposed that President Smith had
done so, until he gave his testimony
Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1904-12-16

She further stated that President Smith
himself had told her, that such a oere-
mony could not be legal These are the
exact words
Mrs Ellis could not testify nom her
own knowledge who performed the
ceremony between her husband ana

For, on another page O. tumpet blast

TO oll Mormon" -haters TO Join 600 The
crusade because. forsooth the Gen
lles' have been betrayed That Is the
object sought to be sDinei II ls hoped
that people win read the headlines and
not notice the discrepancy between
them and the text Of the dispatch ana
then hasten to Join the enemy without
detecting the lle. Sophisls ot old knew
how to employ the false reasoning
technically known as "argumentum ad
homlnem,' by which they appealed to
the passions Of men, ana influenced
them against an opponent and thus
rendered them mentally blind so that
they could easily be led astray. That
is the Kind OF sophstry the Tribune
scrlbes employ. But VIII they succeed
in that kind OF work2 Are the Tribune
readers incapable OF distinguishing be-
tween truth and the tricks Of sleight-
ot.hand performers?
News, falsely labeled, 50 az to sell

nothing but fraud TO sell It Is TO OBJ
tain money under false pretenses II

detected IN selling sand for sugar, cot

Tor diamonds, would It not soon be
stunned az a pest house? But how
much better Is newspaper that
shomelessly ana openly sells lies for
truth? Can the owners and insplrcrs
OF such an enterprise be trusted IN
anything they may say or do
