A Peculiar Book.

One of the most curious books in
the world belongs to the De Linge
family of France. This book is neith-
err printed nor written. All the letters
are cut out Of the vellum and inter-
Ieaved with peculiar shade of blue
paper. The work is so carefully done
that the book is read with the greatest
of ease.
Rudolprus II. of Germany offered H.
600 ducats for 1t; but it was not sold.
The most peculiar thing about this
volume is that it bears the royal arms
Of England; but as far as can be
traced 1t has never been in that coun-
| try.

that in some mysterious way make the
pilot wheel of life spin more easily,
and give the hands Of our souls

rogant independence, but they do not

Just as Profitable to Public.

A dog has succeeded in swimming
across the English channel. Some
disappointment may be felt that 1t
was not a man that did 1t. But the
benefits to accrue to the world from
the fact will be just as great in the
case OF the dog as the man.

Effect Of Temperature on Water.

Changes in temperature have re-
markable effect on the movement OF
water which is percolating through
gravel or other soil. 1t is calculated
that a rise from SO degrees to 60 de-
grees increases the rate of flow Ii
per cent. and when the temperature
rises from about the freziong point
to rs degrees above zero the move
ment of water is almost doubled.

BIG CROWD AT SALTAIK
Day Was Enioyably Spent Despite the
Wind and Rain.

One Of the largest Sunday crowds Of
the season was at Saltair yesterday to
take in the amusements, chief among
which of course was bathing, and TO
hear the usual Sunday concert. All
told, there were about 5000 people at
the resort during the day and about
two-thirds of this number took a dip in
the brine.
At 6 clock, when the lake was dot
ted with hundreds of people, heavy
windstorm set in, followed by hard
rain. The waves ran exceptionally high
and for time the majority of the peo-
pie came out and stood on the pier. The
wind, after about fifteen minutes, sub
sided somewhat and the rain set in and
continued for about half an hour,
On the train which left the resort at
O'Clock the people had trouble. The
rain started to fall just about the time
the train pulled out and continued to
come faster and faster until it poured
into the open cars in streams. During
the ten minutes which it continued the
people who were in the cars were given
q thorough drenching.

WHY MEN ARE NOT
COURTEOUS TO WOMEN
Visitors to Saltair Now Know
Why Men at Times
Are Civil.

Did you ever stop to consider that
what we torn politeness is, after all,
nothing but sham, or, to be explicit,
| that it is nothing more or less than
| hypocrisy. II You never did anything
| of this kind why not look into the mat
| ter once, Just to see what your ultimate
| conclusion will be. If you intend TAX
| ing this advice, here is pointer for
you: Go to the home Of some we'll
known society woman, who Is noted Tor
| the warmth Of her entertainments, and
| then watch the same woman on trip
to Saltair, or any of tho other resorts,
where the trains are crowded.
Preliminary to a Story.
This is merely preliminary to story.
There is one certain woman in Salt
Lake who is known in her home as 4
capital entertainer When you visit
her home every possible courtesy is ex-
tended to you. You are given the best
chair in the cozy parlor, the best seat
at the table, the choicest of the choice
viands, and, when you say goodbye,
you receive an invitation to call again,
which impresses you with tho belief
that of all her friends, you are tho most
welcome.
The woman about whom this story is
being written went to Saltair last Fri
day, leaving the city on the 3 o clock
train AS will be remembered, a strong
wind was blowing at the time of the
departure of the train and there was
scramble for the four closed cars The
heroine Of this tale weighs in the neigh
borhood OF 800 pounds and her flesh
is solid. To begin with, she virtually
walked over a number of people OF
lesser nvoirdupois in getting upon one
of the closed cars. Such was her haste
TO gain admittance to the car that she
left behind her three companions. She
did not forget them, however, rs the
sequel will show.
Held Down Two Seats.
After forcing her way upon the train,
this mountain of flesh proceeded TO
about the middle Of the car, threw two
seats together and took possession Of
them. As she stood between the two
seats and coolly informed everybody
who cast a longing look at the vacant
space that she was holding the seats
for friends--and there was no derrick
handy-she was allowed TO retain them,
while many women, some with babies in
their arms, were compelled to stand up.
Finally her companions put in an APP
pearance and the quartette was happy.
There were numerous people in the
car who commented upon the woman IS
nerve, but none had the temerity to
throw her out of the seats, as they had
perfect right to do,
And yet, if this woman, after her
shameful performance, should be COM
PEELED to stand on a street car for
few blocks, she would, in all probabil-
ity, have much to say about the dis
courtesy Of men. It is this brand Of
women that causes men to be discour-
teous to other women.
