WORDS OF WISDOM.

Fame usually costs more than 1t is
worth
Some men are born leaders and
most women are born drivers.
At the age OF sixteen a girl knows
q lot more about men than man
at the age Of sixty knows about wom-
en-.
An accomplished gossip is one who
tells stories which sound as If they
might be true. This kind is danger
GUS
Very good women are rarely witty,
but they often have a happy faculty
of seeing the funny side OF things.
Wit wounds, but humor disarms.
Raising the wages will never
settle strikes. Bath rooms. button
hole bouquets. reading rooms and
ragtime dou't touch the spot. HUI
man nature never gets enough, and
never will.
Morally, motoring is probably a
good rather than an evil. People
who live in constant danger of their
lives are usually much more honest
and fearless than those who dawdle
through an existence OF uneventful
safety.

New Type of Railroad Car.

The tendency in the construction
Of modern railroad equipment Is TO
design cars which are absolutely fire
proof. Statistics prove that more
lives are lost in the fires which In
evitably follow serious wrecks on the
road than are actually caused by the
collision. Railroads in every part OF
the United States are at present eX-
perimenting with passenger coaches
OF fireproof construction. and are
building no more of the old wooden
type. The majority of these new fire
proof cars have been OF steel con-
struction throughout, with the eX-
Ception, of course, of the seats. II
has been found that this is the ideal
material The one disadvantage IS
In the fact that this type OF car re-
tains heat TO a great extent, and the
problem has narrowed down to "A sue

The popularity Of the goose in Ger

keeping In 1852, has long article
on the goose.
In all the long succession Of cook
books since then the goose occupies
much space. It has also attracted
considerable medical attention.
Next after the hog, the goose Is
priced by German housekeepers for

His Loose Change.

held up and robbed by two masked high
waymen on Twenty-fourth street, near

was walking leisurely along when the
two highwaymen jumped from behind

same time commanding him to throw up
his hands. While one Of the robbers kept
Saunders covered with his gun the sec
ond man proceeded to rifle mis- pockets,
securing a $50 gold piece and some small
change As soon as they had taken the
money from their victim they ordered
him to continue on his way home.
Saunders obeyed the command, but nou-
fled the police as soon as he could. But
a poor description of the two men was
secured and the police have but little
hope OF securing clue to the robbers.

MERCHANTS PROTECTIVE
ASSOCIATION IS SUED

Suit has been entered against the
Merchants Protective association. al
leging the failure to pay over moneys
collected. The action which was filed
in the district court SATURDAY. is
brought by James Earls, who claims
that the defendant brought suit for
him in the Justices court for Salt Lake
City against Frank Hoffman, and that
the latter, on Dec. 20 1906, paid the
amount of $13650 into court. 1t was
collected by the Merchants Protective
association, acting as agents of Earls,
and kept by them. The association, he
declares. has since failed and refused
to pay the amount to him, and he is
suing for the amount, with interest
and costs. The Merchants Protective
association is the agency conducted by
Francis c.. Luke whose methods have
frequently been aired before the public.
Salt Lake Tribune, May IS, 1907.
Mr.. Earls is superintendent of
mine Mr.. Frank Hoffman is lawyer.
Mr.. Hoffman lived in Earls' house. and
Mr.. Earls wanted him out. The VI. p.
A. sued him for rent and restitution of
the premises. and won in the Justices
court, and Hoffman appealed to the
district court and later to the supreme
court, losing in each instance When
writ of restitution was placed i'm the
writ of prohibition in the district
court against the sheriff, and Luke
won. again: Hoffman then appealed to
the supreme court a second time. and
his appeal was dismissed. making an
other victory for Luke and Earis. This
series of legal battles lasted a year,
and during that time Luke collected
from Hoffman s405.50. of which amount
s136.50 was paid TO the N. p. A. by the
court and 1868 to Mr.. Edrls by Hoff-
man.

FOR HUMANITY'S SAKE.
Action of Ogden EIks on Request Of
Grand Exalted Ruler.

Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, Judge
Melvin. has requested the members of
the order throughout the United States
heneeforth to refrain from purchasing
elks' tusks, which are procured by the
destruction of these animals, whose name
the members of the order consider ii an
honor to adopt. The Elks of Ogden have
readily acceded TO the request of their
grand exalted ruler and have gone a step
further. for at the last meeting a motion
was passed that the members of the
lodge not only refrain in the future from
purchasing the tuslIs of the elk, but that
they henceforth refrain from wearing
any elks' tusks which they already own
as emblems of the order. 1t is expected
that the grand lodge at its next session
will follow the example set by Ogden

MEAT MARKET LOOTED.
Thieves Helped Themselves to 6a-
con, Hams, Lard and Butter.

Some time during Saturday night
burglars entered the Enterprise Meat
market at 27S0 Washington avenue and
robbed the place of a quantity of bacon,
hams, lard and butter. This market has
bat recently been opened and the best
guess that the police can make is that
the theft was committed by the same
persons who have been making period-
cal night visits to other stores in the
vicinity and stealing food stuffs. In an
effort to find the culprits the police will
work along this theory.
