A Bold Step,

To overcome the well-grounded ard
reasonable objections of the more INTEL
ligent to the use of secret, medicinal COM
pounds, DR.. r. Y. Pierce, of Buffalo. N.
Y, some time ago, decided to make bold
departure from the usual course pursued
by the makers of put-up medicines for do
nestle use, and, SO has published broad
cast and openly to the whole world, full
and complete list of all the ingredients
entering insS-the composition OF his widely
celebrated tedicjhes. Thus he has taken
his numerS1s patrons and patients into
his full EGnfiSence. Thus too he has re-
moved hisIhedicines from among secret

Shamrock Used for Food.

According to old Irish historians the
shamrock was a staple article Of food
In Ireland before the introduction Of
potatoes, and its free use is responsible
for the strength and feetness of foot
that has always distinguished the sons
Of that tight little isle" Campion in
his History Of Ireland" dated 1871,
says in speaking of the food Of the
common people: "Shamrocks, water
crosses and other herbs they feed upon
oatmeal and butter they cram to-
gether."
Lovbel, the Flemish botanist, who
was the first botanist writer to mention
the plant, after enumerating the Vari-
Gus trefoils, purple and white, says Of
the latter: THE Irish grind the flow
ers and leaves into a meal, which they
knead with butter when veXed and
maddened with hunger" The nourish-
ing qualities Of the plant are also
fathered from the statement Of the
Earl o. Antrim during the siege of
Munster by the Duke of Argyle, to the
effect that as long as shamrocks were
available there need be no apprehen-
sion regarding the food supply.
While authorities differ as to
whether the edible shamrock of those
stirring times was the wood sorrel, the
watercress or the little Irish sham
rock, trifolium repens or triofolium
minus is immaterial. The fact remains
that something in the national diet has
contributed to give it's women complex
ions of roses and cream and it's men
daring and strength.

Rate of Forest Destruction

According to a bulletin issued by the
forest service of the Agricultural De-
partment, every person in this country is
using over six times as much wood as
the individual consumption in Europe,
and the country as a whole consumes
over three times what the forests of the
United States grow during the year. The
consequence of this policy is an newt
able timber famine 1t is pointed out
that the increased population since 1880
is barely more than half the increase in
lumber cut, so that the increase of for
est destruction cannot be explained en-
tirely on the theory of increased popu-
lation. The Northeastern States have
passed their maximum production, and
the Southern States are near their max
imum, while the State of Washington
now ranks first in the volume of timber
cut. At present one-ffth of the total for
est area is owned by the government
The average age of trees felled for lum-
Der this year is not less than 80 years.

The Negro and the New south.

Ray Stannard Baker, in the second
Of his series of articles for the American
Magazine, dealing with the negro prob
lem, condenses his observations into this
phrase: "They want the new South, but
the old darkey." He said he had the
experience of being told that no north
erner can understand the negro as well
as those who have lived with them all
their lives, and then of finding shat
these men rarely knew anything about
the better class of negroes, those who
were in business or in independent occu-
pations, and who owned their own
homes" On the other hand, the best
negroes did not know the higher class of
the white people in the South, and based
their suspicion and hatred upon the acts
of the poor white trash" To this he
attributes the danger of the present sit
uation.

Nance Olden, a little girl with the
reddest kind of red hair, who had
pcnchant for other peoples property
and longing for big red hat and
long red coat, was the principal per-
sonage at the opening of the Salt
Lake Theatre for the season of 1907
1908. Nance, you must know, is the
leading character in the dramatizatior
of Miriam Michelson's novel "In the
Bishops Carriage" In real life Nance
Olden is Miss Jessie Busley, and her
hair is not red, while her reputation

who is wise to all the little details
of purse snatching, pocket-picking and
lifting of family jewels, has full
command of the slang and cuss-words
of her companions, and glories in her
calling until her heart is won by a
man who has high sense of honor
and belief in her future REDEMPTION
and when her love for this true and
noble character has been awakened
the light-hngered Nance learns to
Ioathe and despise her life of crime
as well as her worthless and reckless
companions and she becomes a thor
oughly repentantant and reformed
parsonage. The playwright has TAX
en- many liberties with the novel as
originally produced, yet it is probably
all for the best from a dramatic stand
