MIGHT BE A GOOD THING.

London surgeons are a good deal in
terested in the achievements Of a Rou-
manian expert who has discovered q
new anesthetic called stOvaine. The
claim is made that, when a drop Of the
drug is injected into the spine, the pa
tent NOT only is unconscious Of pain,
but retains Consciousness of everything
else. Bindfold him, and the doctors
can perform the operation without in
terrupting his conversation.
A boys brain was affected, and the
surgeons used the new drug, and then
opened the skull and performed THEN
operation on the brain; and as they
were about to remove the bandage the
boy asked them why they didn't start
He was curious to know how it would
feel.
The London surgeons seem to give the
new drug credit for a very high value
Some Paris practitioners scout the
whole subject. They say they have
known all about stovaine for years, but
that they rarely use it, because of the
bad effects that are likely to follow.
However, it is the united judgment of
the London doctors that no injury to
the heart-always a danger point in an
esthetics-is even in the slightest de-
gree imperilled by stOvaine.
There seems, IN spite Of the word OF
the French doctors, to be something
new under the sun.

UTAH is THE BETTER PLACE.

How many Utah boys have gone to
Idaho in the past five years?
No man knows. But all informed men
know that the number is great. And
the greater the number the worse for
Utah
incidentally, it is worse for the boys,
because there is better place for them.
better opportunity and better results,
here in Utah than any other state-far
OF near-is going to yield them.
Is there anything the older men of the
state can do to stop the removal Of the
young men?
There need be no argument on the
harmful effects Of it. In nothing posi-
bic can a state be so damaged as in the
loss Of its young men. That is the seri-
Gus feature of a war. It takes the young
men. And the places that have known
them are poorer for knowing them no
more. The burdens that have been car
ried by the older men will have to be
laid down presently. In the course CT
nature they cannot go forward much
longer. They have fought a good fight.
They have kept the faith that citizens
owe to their state. They viii in a few
years have finished the race. And their
sons viii not be here to continue the
subjugation Of the desert the making
Of the commonwealth.
If the boys were going to better
things one could bear the loss with
some patience. But they are not. They
go from a state Of solid resources, be-
guiled by the flaming advertisements
of men more spectacular in their meth
DDS than are the people of Utah. With
out saying a hard thing Of a neighbor,
that was the comment of people who
visited the land show in Chicago. Pro-
moters Of enterprises in other states
promised too much for their land. There
is no better land in the world than this
Of Utah And not a result that can
with reason be expected in Idaho or
Washington. but can be duplicated here
in the state which makes no boast # its
possessions.
Keep the boys at home by helping
them to farms Of their own. There Is
not a valley in the state but offers oD-
portunities to the young man. Give
them a chance to make their establish
ment there. Encourage them. Help
them whenever possible Point out the

SUPPOSE YOU WERE A STREET
CAR COMPANY,
Ever Try that?

Ever Try that2
If you were, you would want pay for
every passenger carried, wouldn't you?
Well. so does the street car company.
You see, they base their calculations,
as to whether or not they can conduct
the business. on the average number
Of separate persons who will ride on a
certain car in a certain time. They give
their transfers on the basis Of a certain
per cent Of the patrons actually using
two lines in getting to destination.
These things are calculated by the
thoughtful men Of the street car COM
pany.
You get on the car and pay five cents.
That. in right and justice. entities you
to ride as far as you are going on one
or two cars. If tie first car doesn't
take you TO your destination, you are
entitled TO a transfer to the next car
the one that win carry you through, or
as near as you can get, to the place de-
sired. You are entitled to all that.
And you are not entitled to anything
else for the nickel.
If the first car carries you to your
destination, you are not entitled to a
transfer, and you should not ask for it.
You don't need it yourself You GER
tainly are taking something of value
from the company when you take that
transfer, especially if you give it to
someone else-someone who otherwise
would pay five cents for his own ride.
You say the company can better af-
ford to lose the five cents than the man
can. But, on that theory, you wouldn't
steal a pair Of boots and give them to
the first man you met OF course, you
wouldn't steal them for yourself You
have all the boots you want Would
you follow your street car-Tansfer log
&c, and steal the boots and give them to
someone else? Even though he needed
them? Even if he were not 50 well of
as is the merchant?
There is parity Of reasoning in the
two cases.
Think of it a minute. It is a little
thing, but it is just as dishonest to take
a transfer that you yourself are not go
ing to use. and give it to someone else,
as it would be to steal the boots and
give them to someone else.
Furthermore, it is a whole lot smaller;
a whole lot less worthy; a whole lot
more despicable.
Honesty is honesty. You pay five
cents. and that entities you to a ride to
the end of the line. or any lesser dis
lance. and one transfer. 1t doesn't en-
title you 10 anything else in the world.
And if you take a transfer and give it
10 someone else, who by that means
will beat the company out Of a nickel,
you are guilty Of a perfectly indefensi-
bic action, and OF about the smallest
piece of petty larceny that is possible
to the creature called man.

Al seedy-looking man entered a
store in Trenton the other day, and
asked for assistance, backing up his
request with long tale of sickness
and lack OF employment.
With a wink at his clerk, the
merchant pointed to a friend who
happened to be in the place, and re-
piled:
ASK that gentleman. He is the
proprietor. / am only a clerk"
The friend received the beggar's
request in a sympathetic manner,
and, turning to the merchant, re-
marked: This seems to be a worthy
case. Mr.. Jones. Give him dollar
from the cash register" and walked
out of the store.

protested that it had been n joke. So

Twelfth Night"

The Shakespearean play, Twelfth
Night" that May Stewart and a capa-
BILE company will present at The Ken
lucky Saturday night, November 10,
is one Of the most beautiful and
pleasing that this great intellectual
financier has evolved in the great
number OF portrayals of human char
acter that he has so faithfully pre-
scented for the footlights.
Those who object to deep plots or
heavy tragedy will find in Twelfth
Night" a pleasing comedy full of the
light side of life, but richly jeweled
with the brightest sparkling English
that only the immortal Bard of Avon
can handle. The love and apprecia-
ton of Shakespeare is everywhere
taken as the measure of q COM
munity's culture, and here Is a pre-
dictlon hazarded for a good house for
Miss Stewart.
The immortal tragedy, "Romeo
and Juliet" has been announced for

Louis James in "Henry VIII"

The step made by Louis James last
season from Shakespeare to Ibsen
was a most audacious one, yet one
that was received with favor, for IL
revealed the wonderful versatility OF
this actor who for so many years had

and who disclosed the fact that he

of assumption; this season he returns

According to reports from Europe, Germany literally compelled Russia to consent to the Austrian absorption of Bosnia and Herzegovina, by an ultima tum which named war as the alterna- tive, for which Germany is fully pre- pared while Russia is almost wholly unprepared. At this distance. it looks very much as if Germany were accu- initiating ga heap of trouble for itself in the future. With Russia. France and Great Britain alienated and un- friendly, the Napoleonic role to which the Kaiser evidently aspires, will not be easy of accomplishment. Russia will eventually become ready for any thing. and that country possesses a. long memory. An ultimatum of such character as is referred to above, is nto readily forgotten or forgiven.

As discussion of the tariff bill pro- gresses, and as action upon it is taken from time to time by the Ways and Means committee and upon the general question by the Senate Finance com mittee, it becomes more and more evil dent that the measure in it's complet- ed form will not be what the people desire, or even what the Republican platform advocated, but will be clearly akin to the present tariff. Every re- duotion or removal of duty is being fought f1ercely: Congressman are band ing together upon the "you-tickle-me- I-tickle-you'' plan; the interest of the whole people is not being consulted at all by any one. It is simply a grab game.
