a just recompense that the extremely
suspicious people are the ones who
usually get the butt end OF LIES argu-
ments. Most suspicious are ground
less, and the sooner a dispoition to be
suspicious Is cast off the better for
every life. A certain good farmers
wife whose name need net be men,
toned will testify to the last state
ment even though no one else can.
This good wife ''suspicioned" she had
reason to believe that her hubby was
making love with the hired girl, and
proceeded to do a little detective work
on her own hook, and II possible catch
him in the act. One evening she
noticed her husband pass quietly into
the kitchen. The hired girl was out
and the kitchen was dark. The wife
took a few matches In her hand,
hastily placed a shawl on her head, a.
the hired girl often did and entered
the back door. She was Immediately
seized, Rugged and kissed and en-
braced in very rough manner. With
heart almost bursting the wife pre-
pared a terrible rebuke fer faithless
hubby, and tearing herself from his
fond embrace, struck a match, and
there she stood, face to face with-the
hired man. He had fainting fit and
fell over in it. The good wife had two,
and since that time the husband has
had pie at every meal. The once
suspicious woman has been so ex-
tremely nice to him recently that
now HE is about to grow suspicious.

the annual work required by the
government, or he leaves it as a legacy
to those who are able to realize the
difference between a producing and
paving mine and an undeveloped pros
pect. AS matter OF fact, this pros
pector has always been asking a mine
price for mere prospect whose actual
value was problematical, when he
might have sold it dozen times for a
sum that would have put him on Easy
stree: for several years, or until he
could have found and disposed of an
other prospective bonanza.

THE pROspECTOR.

The disposition OF many prospectors
to hold onto an undeveloped claim has
killed many a good man and led hun
dreds to the grave with debts behind
sufficient to cover them. when, If
they had acted with ordinary reason,
just little common sense, they
might have enjoyed all OF the com
forts and many Injuries during their
declining years. These men in their
optimistic hope forgot that prospect
however good, is not mine and never
can be until monied people get hold
OF it, AS consequence they refuse
splendid offers for their property, 1t
goes undeveloped, and the worthy
prospecter dies in despair and hunger
The Salt Lake Mining Review offers a
word to these that is worth the while,
and we reproduce it here. The Re-
view says:
"'rhc prospector is nothing II he is
not an optimist. Hope springs etcrn-
ally In his breast. A failure is soon
forgotten and he hugs to his bosom
the thought that some day fate or
luck, will be kind TO him, and that in
his old age and In his declining years
ne will rest in luxury from his arduous
labors; and that the past, with It's
hardships and its tolls, will fade from
his memory In his full enjoyment of
wealth and opulence. After years OF
toll, perchance, he finds what he be-
lieves he has been looking for. 1t
may be possessed Of real intrinsic
worth or 1t may be practically worth
less: but the prospect is his, and be-
cause 1t is his, 1t is of more value than
Is the producing mine Of his neighbor,
and he is firm in the belief that, In
case Of a sale, it will bring to him as
much of the coin of the realm as his
neighbor might expect for his well
developed and paying property. And
persistently clinging to his belief he
holds Oh 10 his prospect year after
year. although being offered goodly
price for an undeveloped claim, and in
the end Is forced TO abandon it be-
cause OF inability to perform upon it

THE POWER OF LIQUOR.

There Is so much more of truth
than poety in the following 'old
legend" which the writer recently ran
across, that II will bear repetition

IL dozen times ere this, AS illus
trating the power of liquor and its
tendency to lead to perdition, it is
doubtful indeed II n more apt illustra.
tion was ever given,
AS the legend runs, a man sold his
soul to the devil. The conditions
were: For certain number of years
this man was TO have all his desires
graft fled, at the expiration Of which
time his soul was to be forfeited"
When the time agreed upon had ex.
pircd this man was unwilling To
fulfill his part of the contract,
and asked the devil upon what
terms he could be released The
replay was: "If you will curse your
God, / will release you"
No said the man, II cannot curse
the being whose nature Is love. Give
me something less fearfully wicked"
Then kill your father" replied the
devil, you 20 free"
NO" answered the man, that is
too horrible 10 think Of. l will not
commit so great crime. Are there
no other conditions?n

into and dries up the soal till it's no
bigger than a crab apple and as de-
void of sweetness. Suspicion in nine
cases out of ten is a creature OF the
mind, a creature whose father is a
