The Children's Sunday reception
as given by the Gentry Brothers

ment business. For two hours the
big animal tent is Elled with thous

ponies, dogs, monkeys, elephan Is,
camels, geese aud pigs at first hand.
They learn ''Nero'"' Satan - 'TrilbS"
and the other elephants by names;
they make much ado over "Oklho-
ma, the little baoy camel, who first
saw the light of day at Norman,
Oklahoma, a few short weeks ago,
and they talk to Walter" who
leads the monkey fire brigade, and to
'Ike." the big trained goose; and
they invariably go Wild over Rand

The Herald is happy to announce
that its beautiful yard contest has
been successful beyond the fondest an
ticipations OF the promoters.
Last spring The Herald notified the
Civic Improvement league that there
was at this office 5000 in cash prizes at
the disposal of the league for distribu-
ton among the householders of Salt
Lake City who keep their premises in
order. The league accepted the offer
and announced a series of prizes for
various districts-there were three of
them. The Herald imposed no condi-
tons, sare that the Civic Improvement

to be Improvement in many places.
The Herald sought-as il sought with
remarkable success "A year ago-to
stimulate interest in the making of the
city beautiful. The Herald believes
that il has accomplished its mission in
this matter. The Herald believes its
5000 has been well invested for the
benefit of the city.

No Panns In STARVING.

Novelists write a lot of nonsense about
the pangs of hunger and the extreme sur
fering that accompanies starvation. It
is all poppycock. Any healthy person.
with normal appetite, after missing two
or three meals, is as hungry as he ever
gets. After a while there is a sense of
weakness that grows on one, and this
increases with the days. Then there
comes a desire for a great deal
Of sleep, a sort lassitude that is
not unpleasant, and this desire be-
comes more pronounced as the weakness
grows. The end is always in sleep.
There is no keeping awake until the
hour of death,-[Dillon Wallace, in Outing
Magazine.
