The protests to the British Home

strange that We should send men in
this day to Great Britain and through
out the Christian world to preach the
Gospel. but we are preaching the Cos
pei that was established by the Savior
during His ministry.
I'VE believe in being honest, true,
chaste, virtuous and benevolent. We
believe in the home and that it must
be kept pure.
Il believe in being true to five wives
who are loving, Loyal, contented and
happy mothers. They have been my
wives for over 81 to 40 years
Through all these years l have held
my love and duty to them above al
things else.

that we are bringing girls here fol

The fact is We are trying to purge
Utah of the iniQuitous white-slave

An Execution In the South.

nervousness with twitch Of the lips,
roll Of the eyes, or, If in no other
way, with his hands; but was just
behind him, and not a finger of his
bound hands moved. The sheriff was
very tender hearted man and very
nervous one, and the arrangements
for the execution were awkward. Two
upright beams had to be knocked from
under the trap-door, so that it would
rest on the short rope moose that had
to be cut before the door would fall.
AS each of these was knocked out the
door sank an inch and the suspense
was terrible. The poor wretch must
have thought that each was the one
that was to send him to eternity.
But not muscle .aovod--.All-was
ready, at last, and the sherin cried.

apparition shot down and the sheriff
ran, weeping. out of the door of the

Even Poets Had Them In the Early
Days, but They Were
Slaves.

Most Of us are accustomed to think
Of the stenographer as a product OF
very modern conditions. AS a matter
of fact, however. the profession was
followed as long ago as the days Of
the Roman empire. Poets. who are
laughed at nowadays for having pri-
vate stenographers, had them in the
fourth century of our era, and Profes-
sor Cole of Columbia university, in a
paper on Later Roman Education"
now translates into English for the
first time the very complimentary ad-
dress of the poet Ausonius to his
stenographic assistant. Many mod
ern business man might say the same
thing. although in less poetic diction.

How does your winged right hand

II we remember that in the fourth
century people wrote with sharp points
on wax instead of with pens on paper,
the picture suggested by Ausonius and
his stenographer is surprisingly like
