Farm Hands Should Marry.

The man who works on farm for
others makes a mistake il he allows
his twenty-fifth birthday to go by with
out having a wife and a bit of land of
his own. If he has learned his job
well he has provided for half the
battle of farming, and if he has only
a few hundred dollars laid by it will
do for d start. He can rent if he can
not buy. but good improved little
farms can be had on pretty easy terms
these days. It's better to be your own
boss and not depend on the whim OF
somebody above you for your job.
And man past % and still a batchei
or is on the wrong track and is miss

A SPECULATIVE SITUATION.

1T has for many years been the am

President Taft to be upon the Supreme
Bench of tho United States lie was
offered position on that Bench and
longed TO accept it while he was Gov
ernor Of the Philippines. But his con
science forbade it, because it seemed
needed, in the Philippines in the posi-
ton he held there Mt that time than
| he was III any possible position at
home. At the same time, he made it
very clear that a position on the SUI
preme Bench was the great desire in
has life.
1t is evident that his present position
is not we'll adapted to his TASTE. He
does not relish the scramble Of politics,
the clashlng and pulling and hauling
of conflicting interests. He is essen

round out his career by a position on

if he had nothing left TO ask for.
In the order of Providence there

thing; and yet stranger things than
that have happened: and if it should
happen there would be such a reahgn-
ment of politics, such shake-up of
old ties and conditions, as would cleo"
trify the country.
But if the supposition should be too

HARD TO KEEP TEACHERS.

A little story comes to US from the
Sugar House Ward, now in this city
but at the time of the occurrence il
was not A certain head of the "re
ligion classes in that pious and de
voted ward, found great difficulty in
keeping his subordinate lady teachers
First one would disappear mysterious
ly, then another. He replenished his
force as often and as well as he could
but still the depletion went on, Finally
he began to "suspect something His
insight got better and better every time
there was vacancy, and he determined
to have the practice stopped or quit,
With firm countenance and deter
minted mind, he went to the bishop OF
the ward with his resignation. The
bishop was surprised, and wanted to
know what the trouble was; why the
head of the "religion classes did not
wish 10 continue faithful in tho work
The head explained the difficulty; he
could MT keep his lady teachers, The
bishop sympathized with lin, but could
not imagine any reason why the lady
teachers disappeared so often and SC
r-ysLeriously. Looking the bishop
squarelY i'll the eye, the head of the
classes said: "Bishop, if you will look
ME siIarely in the eye and say that
you don't know what the reason is
That these teachers disappear in the
way they have done, if you will say
on your honor as Il man that thew are
not taken into polygamy by various OF
the elders. then will withdraw my
resignation"
The bishops eye did not look square
into the eye Of the head of the religion
classes; on the contrary, ii dropped
The bishop gave no pledge of honor that
he dldn't know what became of the
teachers. The resignation was moi
| withdrawn.
