The Dighton .swritins Rock.

At Dighton. Mass, lying well out in
the tidewater Of Taunton river, is a
rock Of great antiquarian interest. It
is a granite bowlder about eleven feet
long and five feet in greatest height
and is known throughout New England
as the "Dighton writing rock" One
side Of the bowlder is almost perfectly
smooth, as though worn by glacial ac-
ton. On this fiat surface in clear cut
outlines are dozens of characters, hero
glyphics and pictures, chiseled by some
prehistoric engraver. The archaeolo-
gists have lever been able to decipher
these characters, but they r Of un-

POlYGAMY AS IT Is.
Mormonism finds Protection in TIE Fact
That the Truth Cannot Be Told.

An incident showing what Mormon
ism is to day to the women of Utah APP
pears in the fifth of the series of articles
or THE Tragedy of the Mormon
Woman" by Marian Bonsall, in the
November Housekeeper.
The following incident is actually a
fact, though on the surface it appears al
most unbelievable. A certain unmar-
ried woman was i'll and was thought to
be about to die. Her friends, fearing
for the fate of an unmarried in
the hereafter, went hurriedly TO a man
of their acquaintance, a bachelor, re-
questing him to" be sealed to her imme-
diately. He, consented, being willing to
have her for his wife in the life I o come.
But the unexpected happened and the
young woman was restored to health.
The man to whom she had been sealed
continued to live as he had done, and
she lived at her home as a single woman.
Some time after, the young woman
married a man of her faith, and lives
with,shim and her children today. In
the meantime the man died, to whom
she had,been sealed for eternity but not
for time. He was a man of consider
able wealth, and on the strength of the
sealing. the woman, the wife for time of
another man, sued for the formers
property, in the Utah courts, and got it.
1t is impossible to grasp the full i'm
port of the whole Mormon situation.
Its EMBELLISHMENTS, its responsiveness
and its general degradation is its very
protection. The whole story cannot be
told and %insinuation seems vulgar. And
what makes the situation so intricate, Sc
almost hopeless, is that individually, the
mass OF the Mormon people, are so ad.
mirable. SO sincere and so earnest
Mormon women are as womahly and as
lovable as other women. They look the
