Not Easy to Be a Guest

There are rules for your behavior as
a guest which the girl who goes a.
visiting will do well to consider, says
the September Delineator.
Suppose we begin at the very be-
ginning. You have been asked by
letter for short visit of a week or
two. Be sure in answering it to re-
peat the days for which your hostess
has asked you. This is the first rule
on your part. Also state in your &C
ceptance the train on which you ar
rive and, if you wish, and the train
on which you will depart.
Whether or not you do the latter,
never fail to do the former. Don't
miss that train or change your mind
or take another one,
See that your baggage gets on the
train with you.
Attend TO your baggage checks at
the station yourself, unless you are
met by man OF the family or conf
petent man servant who insists upon
taking this duty upon himself. 1t is
best TO give your checks to the bag
gage expressman who comes through
the train, pay him and get receipt.
Have the change in your pocket
book TO pay for the trunk when it ar
rives at the house. Never borrow the
money from some one in the house or
let your hostess pay for it. There is
no intimacy or even relationship be-
tween friends that will allow this.
From the moment you set foot in
the house, whether the visit be for
days or weeks. remind yourself over
and over that all the things in it.,
from the telephone TO the chamber
maid are another persons property,
and that you must ask permission for
their use.
Do not make demands on the SER
wants in the house. They have other
duties. When they offer their SER
vices to you, accept them graeiously,
but do not call the maid to fasten
your gown fifteen minutes before din
ner is served when she has TO wait on
the table.
Ask the hours of meals and be
punctual. Write that in your mind
IN letters of fire. 1t makes no differ
euce whether you are hungry or not,
AZ the appointed hour be at the table.
Do not bother your hostess by re-
manning at her side all the time. Let
her 60 about her household duties or
TO her room for a brief rest. without
following her around.
III you are visiting ia a house where
there are no servants, and where the
housework is done by the family. then
you should TRY in every way to be OF
help. 1t takes quite little tact to
find out whether you are In the way
or not, but you can at least make up
your room and put away your clothes.

HERE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT
SENATOR MING STANDS FOR.

He believes that the law relative to
state tax lands should be so amended
thut the actual home seeker should
have first preference, and that these
lands should not be sold to tax-titlo
sharks to be denuded OF timber by
them, and again returned to the state
a barren waste. But the portion Of
these lands that are mot homesteaded
should be decided to the counties in
which they lie, to be used by such
counties for internal improvement,
such as road and bridge building: for
50 per cent of these lands lie in the
newer counties of the state.
That all property should bear its
just proportion of taxes, no more nor
less, and that all corporate property
should he assessed under the same
law as the farms, home and business
places are assessed.
That the regulation Of the express
companies in this state should come
under the supervision of the state
railway commissioners as other COM
mon carriers:
He believes that all bills introduced
in the legislature should be open to
free and fair discussion before the
proper committees, but as the people
send to the capital no secret lobbyists.
no others should be allowed.

SAYS BUSINESS Is VERY DULL
IN SALT LAKE CITY

Harry l.. Bowman, who removed to
Salt Lake City couple OF months
ago. expecting to engage in the car
pentry business there, returned here
Wednesday afternoon to look after
some affairs requiring his attention.
Mr. Bowman says Salt Lake City was
hard hit by the financial disturbance
and that trade OF every kind is very
dull. SO much SO. in fact. that hun
drcds of people are out OF employ
ment and are willing TO work at al
most any price.
People have been pouring into Salt
Lake City for several months from
Butte, Montana. the Nevada and Ari-
zona mining camps. as well as from
the east" said Mr.. Bowman, 'and, as
a result II Is filled with men who have
nothing to do. There are eight hun
dred carpenters in Salt Lake City

their getting work 10 not very, en-

pick up again after while. but just
how soon things will get back to the
old conditions It Is difficult to say
80 far as climate IL concerned Salt
Lake is not in the same class with
Canon City. They have had several

SCARLET FEVER CLOSES

A large number of cases OF scarlet

of the contagion.
Four or five families were quaran-

Wednesday, and 1t is believed that
the disease will be controlled BY the
authorities without serious difficulty
as it does not appear to be Of ma
