STABILITY. ANXIOUS.
Al have read your appeal for
help several times in a vain effort
to see between the lines. 1t seems
to me that your husband must be
like many others who look upon
their wives as something less than
servants. These men expect their
wives to act as nursemaids, cooks
and general housework" girls-all
for board and clothes. And these
same clothes cost far less some
times than one servants weekly
wage. Why cannot men learn that
the wife should be nequal share
holder in his worldly goods?
But this is a question that has
been hashed over and over again
for years by able writer's, and yet
1t seems that the number of men
who look upon their wives as mere
''beasts of burden" never grows
less.

A JOKE ON THE ENEMY.

Once upon a time when there
was a big war there were a party
of men called scouts who were
fighting very hard for their coun-
try. While they didn't wear new
soldier suits with shiny butotns,
they always had very strong, fast
horses to ride, and they rode so
fast the enemy never could reach
them.
One morning the enemy had
been trying to catch one of the
scouts named Jack Davis, but he
had ridden out of sight ahead of
them around the bend of the road.
They rode fast and loked carefully
all about, but couldn't find him.
They came to a field where a farm

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. S.-The
police are today securing the city
for a Jack the Ripper" who has
already killed and robbed three
women of this city.
That the murders have all been
committed by the same man is
shown by the fact that each kill
ing was a case of stabbing and
each victim had a note pinned to
her dress saying that the muir
derer took her money as his fee
for freeing the earth of woman

the northern part of the tithng Office,
and two years later it was again re-

n N just ten days from today it will
be flrty-nine years since the first
number Of the Deseret News was
printed. And in just tifty-nine
years after the appearance of the first
issue of the News" lacking two weeks,
the work Of tearing down the building
in which the paper spent most of it's life,
up to the present time, was commenced.
The Deseret News building, as it is
known far and wide, has for more than
half a century been one of the old land
marks of Salt Lake City. Situated at
the corner of Main and South Temple
streets. standing on a slight cminence
at the head OF the street. the site was
an imposing one, and one from which
the full sweep Of Main street both
north and south, and South Temple
street, from the railroad depot&on the
west 10 the foothills of the Wasatchi
range on the east was visible to the
eve. And while the purpose in tearing
the old pile down is to replace it with
IA handsome modern structure of the
sky-scrarIng variety which viii cost
in the neighborhood of a million and
half dollars, yet to the people of this
city and Of this state, Who came to this
place when there was no Salt Lake
City, and when the spot occupied by.
