Insanity Us. LAUGHTER.

We ARE living in age that is teeming with
contradictions We are being told that must not
do this, that, and the other thing until humanity is
almost dizzy. Not day passes but what the world
pauses to reaust itself according to the theories Of
some prophet Some Of these theories are very
amusing, but the majority of them are rather sensa
tional and too absurd to attract an -burdened
public.
The latest sensation comes from Sir Arthur Nit
chel, Britsher. He makes the startling statement
that laughter is insanity This may not be true but
it is decidedly original The article that contained
this unusual statement said "He has analysed from
every possible standpoint the causes the varieties
the effects of laughter and he declares that it is tran
sent lapse from sanity" The article also says that
Sir Arthur has proven his hypothesis by numerous
authorities and indisputable facts.
We have been told to Laugh and grow fat and
now we are informed that laughter means insanity.
Hoot mon! Is it possible that our prophets are
false? When the fair Badger songstress said Laugh
and the world laughs with you," did she have de-
signs upon the human race? Perish the thought!
We do not mind being humbugged by charlatans,
but it is trifing annoying to be kept lowering

going to do about this? Will he continue to laugh
up his sleeve and grow rich? During the meantime
we shall place our laughing apparatus in cold storage
at least until the mighty prophet of Zion has received
a revelation bearing on this subject.

TOSO'S MESSAGE.

JAPAN is to be congratulated on having such a
noble, chivalrous Admiral Togo In announc-
ing his unprecedented victory, his message con-
tanned these words: "The main force of the Russian
second and third fleets is nearly annihilated Please
feel assured of it In his hour of triumph, Togo is
modesty personifed In winning one Of the greatest
fights in the history Of the world he would have
been justified in expressing his citation in language
similar to that used by Caesar or Perry However,
his message contains boasting self praise, but
is simple statement Of fact In closing he advises
his majesty to "Pease feel assured Of it."
This courteous request has been hailed as a new
coinage of laconic English It is phrase that will
receive great deal of popularity In day Admiral
Togo has been recognized of the great heroes
of the age. we do not read Of him being an iron
willed disciplinarian We do not read where he ILL
treated, abused and made groveling brutes Of his
Perhaps this is why the sailors under Rojest-
vensky would rather die than win victory for the
man who was responsible for their ill-treatment.
Iron-wlled discipline may make aciturn Sailors but
it will not make enthusiastic fighters.

Cigarettes.

THERE must be something very obnoxious about
the cigarette habit Several Of the legislatures have
gone even so far prohibit their manufacture and
sale within the boundaries Of their states. These
little cylinders SO highly priced by connoisseurs of
the weed are creating considerable discussion, be-
cause young America appears to prize these tubes
more highly than he does his jam. The result of
this fatuous desire is becoming serious that drastic
laws are necessary to check the increase in idiocy
Doctors have repeatedly pronounced the excessive
of cigarettes as very dangerous, because they affect
both the heart and the lungs.
In the moderate Of cigarettes there is little
danger When INDUCED in to excess, however, hope
less degeneracy follows with absolute certainty This
why the crusade against cigarettes has gained such
an impetus within the past few years.

Conference at Riverside.
A quarterly conference of the Black.
foot stake of the L. d. s. church was
held at Riverside last Saturday and
Sunday, July 18th and 18th. These con-
ferences convene regularly every three
months and their object is to permit
all the members of the church living in
the stake to meet together and have a
voice in the transaction of any business
that may come before the conference.
There are usually representatives of the
General church authorities present at
these conferences, and on this occasion
Elders Hyrum M. and Geo. A. Smith, of
the quorum of Apostles were present.
The meetings were held IN a large
bowery erected especially for the pur-
pose and there were about $50 members
Of the church present, besides many
who were not connected with the church.
The names of the officers of the stake,
consisting of the Stake Presidency, the
High Council consisting of twelve mem
bers, Bishops of the fourteen wards in
the stake, and officers of the various
auxiliary organizations, numbering in all
about 12O officers, were read before the
the conference to be approved, or disap-
proved, all Of which were sustained
without dissenting vote.
Pres. Elias s. Kimball made the open
ing address, giving brief report of the
stake which he said was in very pros
porous condition. Lorenzo R. Thomas
and Don G. Walker also addressed the
conference upon subjects of interest.
The principal discourse on Saturday
was made by Elder Hyrum NJ. Smith
upon the duties of parents to their
children and the necessity of making
homes beautiful and pleasant.
At the Sunday morning session the
subject of the morality was discussed in
a most interesting and impressive man.
ner by Elder Geo. A. Smith and during
the afternoon, besides several short ad.
dresses by leading officers of the stake,
q very interesting sermon was preached
by Elder Hyrum M. Smith. His subject
being the aim and mission of mankind
upon the earth, drawing his illustra-
lions from the teachings OF the Savior
while he lived among his fellow men.
Another very pleasant feature of the
gathering was the beautiful masic rend-
,red by the Riverside Choir.
