She Wanted to Know.

A little woman with wilton carpet
floral designs on her hat came into the
uptown Pennsylvania ticket Office the
other day and bought ticket for a
point down the state.
She gathered up her ticket and asked
for a little folder because it had a pic
ture on it in colors of a girl waving
goodby to somebody from the end of a
train. Then she placed her ticket in
side her purse and the purse inside a
little satche1 and put the satchel inside
her shopping bag, which she carried
in a small alligator travelling bag. Just
before she started out she inquired of
City Passenger Agent Dillon, who had
been waiting on her, 'How long be-
fore my train starts?'
you'll just about have time to make
it," Dillon told her. 'Tt leaves the
Union station in about seventeen min
utes"
Seventeen minutes" she repeated,
"and is that by central time or eastern
time ?"-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

LITERATURE FOR HOMEsEEKERs
Commissioner of immigration Wants the Names of Parties
who are Looking for Farm Homes.

Tie State Board OF lmmlgra-
ton has on hand literature in
several languages, namely:
English, German, Norwegian,
Polish and Hollandish and will
soon have it in the Bohemian
language. The important point
at the present time is to get this
literatuI e in the hands of people
who need homes-in other words
to introduce the landless man to
the manless land.
I trust that the many readers
of this article will see their in

that it is to his interest to have
further development of the par

Judgment Was Confirmed.

A certain old time justice of the
peace, wishing to bring suit against a
citizen, consulted the statutes and
found that suits of such character
might be brought before any justice
of the peace.
"Well, them" thought he, I'll just
try the case myself"
Straightway he made out writ
against his adversary and signed 1t.
On the day set for trial the defendant
appeared with counsel. Both gentle
men not unnaturally objected to the
constitution of the court.
"Why," demanded the justice, "do
you deny that I am a justice of the
peace?"
The lawyer would not contest this
point, but argued that such construc-
ton of the law was against all sense
and reason.
A vigorous alteration ensued, and
then the judge remarked that not for
the world would he have two gentle
men suppose him governed by any per-
sonal considerations. 81 will there
FORE" he added gracefully, "render
Judgment against myself and then
appeal to the supreme court"
''But the mischief Of it was" said
the justice, relating the story after
ward. "that when my judgment got to
the supreme court it was unanimously
reaffirmed."

Several weeks ago civil ser
vice examination was held for
Bookkeeper in the State Treas
urer's office. and G. 0. Sowder
of this city and O. M. Axness OF
Mason wrote the examination
before the local board. Reports
of the standings have just been
received and both Mr.. Sowder
and Mr.. Axness made a splen-
did showing. G. o. Sowder
stood fourth and 0. M. Axness
of Mason fifth. Whenit is realiz-
ed that a large number from all
over the state wrote this eXami-
nation it can be readily under
stood that the young men from
this county feel pretty good over
the result.

Carried Out Instructions.

Every sailor has his story of the
mistakes which landlubbers make over
the names of things at sea, which
always seem to be exactly the oppo-
site of what they are on land.
A new boy had gone on board a
West India ship, upon which a painter
had also been employed to paint the
ships side. The painter was at work
upon staging suspended under the
ships stern.
The captain, who had just got into
a boat alongside, called out to the
new boy, who stood leaning over the
rail, "Let go the painterv'
Everybody should know that a

He ran aft and let go the ropes by

you let go the painter?

Only One Alternative.

A cynic was smiling at the extrava-
CANT attentions that are lavished by
the rich upon pet dogs. He spoke of
the canine operations for appendicitis,
the canine tooth crownings, the canine
wardrobes, that occur in New York,
and then he said:
''How servants hate these pampered
ours! At a house where I was calling
one warm day the fat and pompous
butler entered the drawing room and
said:

Fido out walking for two hours
Harrison frowned slightly. But
Fido won't follow me, madam he
said.
"'Then, Harrison, you must follow

capitalist or laborer, he must
realize that further increase in
population and activity means
his gain. The merchant is un-

Leaving Home.

I would give few words Of encour-
agement to any young man who may
hesitate about leaving home. There rs
nothing in the world so good for a
man, say, between twenty-five and
thirty-five years of age, especially If
unmarried, as visit to distant coun-
tries, to learn other tongues, to see new
sights and to experience strange adj
ventures, such as he may readily en-
counter by throwing aside the restric-
tions of home life and taking up work
abroad.-Frederic Shelford, B. &c., in

BRIGHAM YOUNC's BIRTHDAY.

1t was a very happy thought Of the
Deseret Evening News to publish some
OF the sermons OF Brigham Young last
Saturday evening In commemoration
OF his birthday. They show one Of
the most likeable and admirable sides
OF his character and one that Is not as
well known as IL should be to the
rising generation. AAover the United
States Brigham Young is known and
respected as a colonizer and states
man. as one OF the first to point out
and develop the possibilities OF the
arid west, and among his own people
he is revered as u prophet. These ser.
mons indicate a sturdy common sense
and good judgment that should com.
mend him to all. 1t is the typically
American quality, the Yankee In him,
that puts him on par with Benjamin
Franklin. The sermons Of Brigham
Young are full OF the same terseness,
the same shrewdness, the same sym.
pathy for mankind and understan ding
