Good Taste in Wells.

"The mission of the veil is to keep
the hair in order and to enhance the
brilliancy of the complexion" says
the Woman's Home Companion. ut
should not be striking in itself. Heav-
iIy-spotted nets and lace wells of con-
spicuous pattern should be for this
reason tabooed. They are trying to
rise above their sphere, trying to be
something on their own account, and
so they conceal the face, and incl
dentally ruin the eyes:
Nevertheless, it is the veil with
the large, conspicuous mesh that
fashion is specially favoring in Paris
and New York just now.
"For the perfect complexion the
best veil is perhaps the plain, fairly
large mesh net which is hardly mo-
ticeable and only serves to keep the
hair I'M place. Most of US, however,
require in the hard light of out OF
doors some simple beautiher, n for
rs the spots and lines of the patterned
nets are a boon.
1.-THE most generally becoming veil
has a black figure on a white ground:
the white net coming close to the skin
heightens it's fairness, while the black
spots accentuate its brilliancy. A veil
of this type is becoming according to
the size and arrangement of its spots.
The black chenille dots with a gen
erous space between act like the old
fashioned 'mouche.' the touch Of
black court plaster at the side of the
cnin or near the outer corner OF the
eye, so much affected by the clever
beauties Of the time OF Marie An
toinette. When these spots come
closely together the white spaces are
not sufficiently large to do their work
and the effectiveness Of the spots Is
almost, If not entirely, n%ullifed."

BULLDOG IN LOVE
WITH TEDDY BEAR. !.

Prize Boston Animal Causes n
Sensation With His Pet in New
Orleans.
A two-thousand-dollar Boston bull
dog tenderly carrying a large Teddy
bear by the nape of the neck and ap-
parently trying to keep bruin from
soiling his feet on the pavement was
a sight that attracted the attention Of
pedestrians in Canal Street, New Or
leans, a short time ago, and finally
led a reporter to unearth an interest
ing story. 1t is of a dogs pitiful and
touching devotion to the toy.
On account of the CANNES unusual
viciousness and the great number of
battles he has won, his mistreas Miss
Phyllis Gilmore, gave him the name
of Ferocious.
AS Miss Gilmore, Ferartol and the
Teddy bear entered r1a lobby of a
hotel, in an effort &C. escape the at
tention of the gathering crowd that
had followed from Canal street, a
score Of the curious stood on the
pavement and peered In to see what
disposition Ferocious would make Of
his strange burden.
They were o rewarded by see
ing the canine prize winner walk
straightway to the most comfortable
looking chair in the lobby and care
fully place his pet thereon, in a SIT
ting posture. He then backed away
a few feet and, crouching upon his
great launches, gazed intently in the
glass eyes of his Teddy, all the while
keeping up a low whining, as if try
ing to inquire why his pet did not
romp with him.
When asked for an explanation of
the dogs unusual actions Miss Gil
more said:
"The truth of the matter is that
the affection that Ferocious shows his
Teddy is a really wonderful thing. 1t
is the case of a dogs remarkable
depth of devotion and still more re-
markable memory.
when Ferocious was a pup and
hardly able to waddle I owned a cub
bear, in the same state of infancy.
AS the two grew up they became fast
friends and would romp together all
day. But about thirteen months ago
the little bear died and Ferocicus has
not been the same dog until last
week.
81 had him out in Canal street for
a walk when suddenly l say him
dart for a show window and try to
lunge through it. He seemed wild
with joy and / could not understand
his antics until I say that the Win
dow contained a Teddy bear about
the same size and color Of his old
playmate. ! bought him the little
stuffed animal and he has since re-
gained his old spirit.
do you know" continued Miss
Gilmore, = really believe that Fero-
cious thinks he has found his pup
hood companion. When I feed him
he takes Teddy by the neck and
pokes his nose into his food, as if
trying to make it share his meals.
When 1 make him go to his box at
night he vii! not sleep unless I let
him rest his head or paws upon his

Salt Lake City many other benefits in the way of
water rights, other than the Immediate benefit of
quicker and cheaEer transportation for the stone
blocks for the temple.
About years of labor and many thousand
dollars worth of toll expended in build
ing this canal 1t was actually constructed from
beyond the mouth OF Big Cottonwood the

The greatest difficulties encountered in build
ing the canal those OF the cuts and fills
necessary to be made owing to the rolling nature
Of the country through which it passed and
the crude implements with which the men
compelled to do the eNcavating. There were no

and from Emigration to the fat near the present

through it. however. for various reasons. some
of which may be enumerated.
When the water was turned into the canal it
was noticed that when it reached the point

at Parley's canyon. the soil was of such a nature
that the fluid sank nearly rapidly as it en-

The mill had been built and a considerable
amount OF machinery installed at n great eX-
pense. and the young industry OF MAILING woolen
cloth just budding in its infancy. And the
prospect of tho annihilation of this promising
plant was not to be considered by the leaders
by the people. and this had It's effect in the
final abandonment of the canal.
Another. and perhaps the greatest reason for its
abandonment was the approach of the Johnston
army. 1t was In the year 1857. and it was known
