The Servant
In the
House
By Charles Ram Kennedy

We do not publish plays-but here
is a drama so great, SO compelling, so
reverent, so akin to all the beautiful
and permanent things in life that it
is more than a play, more than a
novel, more than a mere book. 1t IS
a page from life itself, revealing the
brotherhood of man as real breath
ing thing; showing how the lmpossl-
bic has become possible. According
to the critics, Not in lifetime has
such a wonderful play been created
and it reads as well as it acts. An
ideal Easter gift-published to-day.

THE IDAHO SCIMITAR.

Diplomacy will wave its hands in reassuring depre-
cation-boys will be boys, you know-but the belief
will remain that so categorical statement Hob
sons at Denver yesterday must have its basis in
fact. Did the president, in seeking to pierce the
armor of some resoute opponent of four battleshps
refer to the likelihood of conflict the Pacific?
And did such words, falling the ears of most
prominent Japan-eater, cause that young heart to
swell with the mighty secret and those eager lips to
bring it forth What we know both of Mr.. Roose-
welt and of Congressman Hobson makes the SUPPOSE
ton probable Where the blame should fall for
incident that is to provoke columns of unquiet
comment in Toxic is not hard to decide. If Hobson
IS the professional frebrand whose mission it is to
shed lurd yellow light western horizon,
what shall we say of president who forgets that
Hobson is present and lets himself go? And yet
were 1t not for the international strain such an in
cident creates, we should welcome its occurrence.
Hobson could not indulge in such little escapade
very many times before stout hand, reaching out
from Sycamore Hill, would take that bright young
Yellow Peril by the neck and sque1ch it into perpetual
silence.

The ViCe=President.

Lowell Courier-Citizen: The vice-presidency of
this country was provided by the wise projectors of
a great government in order that there should be
ready to hand man fit to take the helm instantly
if the president ever died became incapable while
in office Inasmuch as this design is entirely
lost to sight by both party conventions every time
one meets would it not, as is suggested, be quite
as we'll to amend constitution by abolishing this
ornamental office altogether? We have law now
which provides for the succession of the cabinet
officers seriatum in event the vice president should
in his turn become incapable and under that system
might we'll expect to get provisional president
much more nearly in accord with the administration
than we seem likely to get by general election.
1t is not more probable that the members of cab-
net chosen by cautious chief, for reasons of con-
summate fitness in the average case, would make
competent presidents at need than men who
selected for better than the necessity OF
p1acating reactionary factions? We incline to think
So Mr.. Sherman would, in judgment, make
less desirable president than any of the leading
secretaries of the existing cabinet would make
and the same might easily be true of the next one.
Suppose Alton B. Parker had been made president
in 1904 and had died in office. Would the kind of
man he had chosen for secretary of the state make
better president than Grandfather Henry Gassoway
Davis? We opine that he would

Canned Cheers.

Brooklyn Eagle A splendid business opportunity
overlooked in Denver when no one took phono-
graphic record of all that cheering In this era of
canned conventions it is inevitable that canned
cheering will become necessity.
AS matter of the next national conven-
ton will have break this record but it is too much
to expect that wilted delegates will sit in hot
vention hall and cheer themselves to death just to
give some candidate a longer outburst of applause
than Mr. Bryan had
Hereafter convention cheering must be done by
machinery. The limit of human endurance has been
reached. The only sensible way to run future con-
ventions will be to have hundreds of monographs
with megaphone attachments and with an inexhaust-
IDLE supply of cheering records 1t would be good
idea to arrange the programme that the first day
could be devoted to temporary organization and the
second day entirely to cheering. This plan would
enable all the committees to complete their work in
time for the real business of the convention.
Without mechanical aid, the republicans
equal the pandimonium of democratic convention.
Even in the thin air Of Denver the democrats found
it mere play to break the Chicago record If they
had had plenty of air to yell WITH as the republicans
had in Chicago they might have yet been yelling yet

Time for Orders.

1t is about time for the president of the Mormon
church to repeat the command issued shortly be-
fore the election of November, 1906 in which he said
Just there is a tendency among some of the
thoughtess young men to sympathize with the fight
against the church authorities Waged by the asSaSSins
of virtue the supporters of vice and riot and 1ewd
women, gambling, robbng and general corruption
1t is senseess tendency, and they who follow it will
do to their destruction. At the present time
are about to make choice of political leaders.
1t is scarcely necessary to say that a who has
the interests of himself and his people at heart will
choose his friends Who are Our friends? Men
who have kept informed the trend of affairs in the
nation IN the past two years more may easily
mise. To vote any other way would be ungracious,
against our own best interests, and would show
spirit OF HAgracousness such as this people do not
naturally possess. Wherefore by their fruits we
shall known them"
Joseph F. Smith
The thoughless young men, thus adjured, fled
swiftly from the supporters of vice. ETC.. and rallied
around the pure and untouched exemp1ars of repubi
politics.
Joseph gave them the cue for it was during the
previous two years that the satanic influences of the
nation had concentrated their efforts for the desruc-
ton of of the anointed of the Lord the sanity
Senator Smoot prophet and all the other things
and at the end of their Vaccinations Zion had risen
triumphant.
''Who are our frends?" Those, of course, who
recognized the prophecies of the past and welcomed
a saint to high place in government.
Those who had not kept informed on the trend of
affairs in the nation" could ask the bishop, that
they might not go astray.
When the head of the church placed the foregoing
bit of advice in his official publication he understood
what the effect would be, for in Mormondom a word
to the wise is sufficient.
The time approaches for another decree from the
herarchal throne, that "the freest people earth"
may know how to VOTE not alone in Utah, but in the
contiguous states.

OUT FEAR OF DYSPEPSIA
Why Not Let Diapepsin Take Care of
Your Meals Until Your Stomach
Gets Strong-Everything You Eat
VIII BE Digested and Nothing Left
to FeTment.

If your meals don't tempt you, NJ
you feel bloated after eating and you
believe it is the food which fills you;
If what little you eat lies like a lump
of lead on your stomach; if there is
difficulty in breathing after eating
eructions of sour food and acid
heartburn, brash or a belching of gas,
you can make up your mind that you
need something for a sour stomach
and indigestion.
To make every bite of food you eat
aid in the nourishment and strength
of your body you must rid your
stomach of poisons. excessive acid
and stomach gas which sours your
entire meal-interferes with digestion
and causes so many sufferers of dys-
pepsia, sick head ache, nauseous
breath, and stomach trouble of all
kind; putrefying the intestines and
digestive canal, causing such misery
as blliousness, constipation, gripping,
etc, Your case is no different-you
are a stomach sufferer, though you
may call it by some other name; your
real and only trouble is that what you
eat dies not digest, but quickly fer
ments and sours, producing almost
any unhealthy condition.
A case of Pape's Diapepsin will
cost so cents at any pharmacy here,
and will convince any stomach suf-
ferer five minutes after. taking one
triangule that fermentation and sour
stomach is causing the misery of in
digestion.
No matter II you call your trouble
catarrh of the stomach, nervousness
or Gastritis, or by any other name
always remember that a certain cure
is waiting at your pharmacist any
time you decide to begin its use.
Pape's Diapepsin will purify the
sourest and most acid stomach within
five minutes, and digest promptly,
without any fuss or discomfort all
of any kind of food you could eat.
