give me that paper and I'll fill out the

Two other assistants we're pressed

ceeded to do up the various packages
as the boy called off the articles. lie
vAnted all kinds Of things, and he
asked the price Of each article as he
went along, making note Of it on
his paper. The assistants had the
long counter stacked with packages
when the boy wound up with leigh
teen pounds Of -FOUR
One Of the shopmen called out the
price, and the boy continued, in his
sing-song voice:
"And how much money does my
mother have to pay for her things?'
One Of the men counted up the to-
tai and announced it. The boy made
a note Of the total and started out.

Cultivate.

A good memory of faces and facts
connected with them, thus avoiding
the giving of ofense through not rec
ognizing people.
An unaffected, distinct and sympa-
thetic voice, and avoid,the shrill tones
that one so often hears.
The habit Of making allowances
for the opinions and feelings Of 9TH
ers. as we'll as for their prejudlces.
We cannot all see matters from the
same angle. If we did ours would be
a very dreary globe.
The art Of listening without I'M
patience even to prosy takers, and
Of smiling naturally, even if you are
hearing funny story for the second
sime. It really will not hurt you to
hear it over again.-Hsme Chat.

These are two drownings which

There have been ten drownings In
Utah this season. and all OF the Ill.
fated have been small boys or babies.
We do not recall season in ten years
that boys while bathing have not lost
their lives In the Jordan or other
streams of this state.
There Is less danger in Il large party
OF boys bathing in the streams and
still loss when one or more men who
can swim arc with the children.
Parents should inquire closely into
the habits OF their boys while out Of
school. These vacation days make
active youngsters a restless. venture

mischief often at the risk of their
