EVERY mother has two hands,
one to gnide and one to bless.

y
one to gnide and one to bless.
WHATEVER happens don't be-
come a sour old man or woman.
Old age should be a cheerful per-
iod Of life, when the heightened
shadows are softened by the set
ting sun, when quiet twilight
steals on apace, soon to be fol-
lowed by the long night Of rest
which remains to all living.
THE first person to whom christ
appeared after the resurrection
was a woman. During all the
ages that have come since that
first Easter morning, whenever
there was a word to be spoken
for the Master, a tender service
to perform in His name, a cup Of
cold water to be given to some
Way1arer, or a prayer to be Of
fered for some sin-sick soul,
woman has always been the first
on the scene.
On our criticisms of others, let
us remember that we have faults
which our friends have to excuse.
How much would be left Of US if
all those who see Inconsistencies
in us should clip away from our
character and reputation? It is
al invariable rule that those who
make the toughest work with the
names Of others are those who
have themselves the most lmper-
fections. The larger the beam
in your own eye, the more anx-
ious you are about the mote in
somebody else's eye. Instead of
going about town slashing this
mans bad temper and the other
mans falsity, and this woman's
Hypocrisy and that ones indiscre-
ton. 90 home with the ten com
mandments as a monitor and
make out a list of your own dere-
lictions.
If young men wish to succeed
in business, they must not spend
their time and money in simply
having a good time. They must
not be discontented with the lit
tie place in which they are in be
cause they think they are too big
for it. The way to get into a
large place is to outgrow the one
you are in, grow until it is sc
small that it will not hold you
any longer. A man who sits
shrunk up and worthless IN lit
tie place, because he thinks it is
not worth while to grow enough
! to fill that, has little prospect OF
getting into larger ones. Fill the
place that you are in. Fit your.
self for higher usefulness. Te
do that you must do something
besides play, though that may be
innocent IN itself.
INFANCY and innocency arr

IS FOUND DEAD
AFTER TWO DAYS
Body of Alonzo Eastman DiscOv-
cred in a Shack on West
First South.

The body of n man named Alonzo
Eastman, aged about 40 years. was
found this morning in a shack at the
rear of 1888 west First South street.
Eastman apparently died as result
of heavy drinking. The body was found
by neighbors. who were annoyed from
the awful stencil from the partly
decomposed body. The police were
notified and Officer Harris made an
investigation.
But little could he learned about the
case. 1t is known that Eastman had
been drinking a great deal OF late, ana
he was last seen alive Monday after
noon. II is believed that he then
went to his place of abode and died
in CONFUSION. 1t is said that the
man had a wife. but where she Is at
present is not known. He has two
brothers at Ogden.
Justice of the Peace Dana L. Smith
was notified, and after examining tho
body, had the remains sent to O'Don-
nePs undertaking parlors. 1t Is not
likely that an inquest win be held.
