PRESTON BREvITIES
Independent Telephone Company
Threatened With Revocation Of
Their Franchise.

Preston, March 10.-Joseph Palmer
of Malad and Mrs. Charlotte G. Pratt
OF Preston were married at Salt Lake
City yesterday.
Charles p. Christensen and Avilda
Mecham of Preston were married
yesterday at Pocatello, Idaho.
Prof. Thomas Spongberg and wife
are elated over birth of fine
girl, Tuesday morning.
Notice was served on the Independ
ent Telephone Company several days
ago to appear before the village board
March eth to show cause why their
franchise should not be revoked for
noncompliance with the same. The
matter was compromised by the com
pany furnishing the village four free
phones. The move was started with
a view of getting the poles out of
the middle of the street, which 1t
seems has, for a time, been defeated.
A very pleasant surprise was given
former President Geo. C. Parkinson
at his home by the Stake Primary
board Tuesday night. Although a very
nasty night outside, all present en-
joyed themselves and felt well paid
for coming out.

vail in Ward.

Hyde Park, March 9.-The Smith.
field Second ward Dramatic company
played Confusion" to a rather slim
house Friday evening, March 3rd A
probable cause of the play being so
poorly attended is that there have
been SO many dances, picture shows,
theatres, etc, this winter that the
peoples finances are running low. The
proceeds were given to the Hyde
Park brass band, on condition that
the Hyde Park Dramatic company
play at Smithfield for a like purpose.
The Smithfield company is good
one and always takes well in Hyde
Park.

of measles in this ward at present.
They are in very light form, how
ever. Mr.. Jesse Hancey has been
quite sick with lagrippe for over two
weeks, but is now on the mend.

time, is now daily improving.

commons by Sir Wilfred Laurier,
prime minister of the Dominion, in the
first speech he has delivered in the re.
ciprocity debate.
His views against annexation and
for good returns were especially en-
phasized.
1t was once the conviction of the
American president, he asserted, that
Canada should become part of the
United States. Although it was flat.
tering to American pride that the ter
ritory of the republic should extend
over the whole continent, he urged mis-
neighbors to remember that Canadians
were born under the same flag as
| the ancestors of the American people,
flag under which Americans may
have suffered oppression, but which
to Canadians has been and is more
than ever the emblem of freedom.
IF you have founded nation up

remember that we Canadians have
set our hearts upon building a nation
without separation, and in this tasi
we are far advanced The blood which
flows in our Veins is as god rs yours

AN APARTMENT NURSERY
How an Infnitesimal Room Was Made
to Seem Commodious.

In a certain New York apartment, where,
after the manner Of New York apartments,
there is very little space, the room allotted
10 the two small daughters seemed at first
almost too tiny for habitation. But the
ingenious mother found way out Of the
dilemma.
There had TO be a double bed or two
single ones. and a little dresser or chif-
fonier Of some sort. Perhaps only few
persons know that there are such things
as two story beds" There are. however,
and one Of them went into the little nur-
sery II was of enamelled iron. with
touches Of brass, and when prettily fitted
out II was not at all unsightly. Little
chntz spreads of blue and pink TO match
the wallpaper we're chosen. Each one was
made with a valance. and beneath the
lower berth low hamper affair, catch
ali for TOYS, etc. was concealed. After
some hunting a cunning little four drawer
white cnamelled dresser, measuring just
thirtv-two inches across, was found TO iit
into the remaining wall space over this
hung an oval mirror. the frame beng
covered with the same flOwered chintZ. TO
he inside Of the closet door was attached
3 fuIl length substantial blue canvas bag,
made with numerous pockets of different
sizes TO hold all sorts Of things-shoes.
rtibbers. roller skates. etC.-and the prob
lem OF making the tiny nursery haOitaOle
was solved.

THE TALK CURE
Garrulity Said to Quicken the Circula-
tion of the Brain.

The woman who talks is vindicated at
last To talk is a sign OF cheerfulness, II
Is said, and henceforth the talker will be
that dear CHEEKY thing instead OF that
awful woman-I never can get word In
edgeWays. Isn't she tiresome?" To be
quiet and thoughtful will be considered de-
pressing when the new theory becomes
common property. for sadness, Il seems.
Is result simply OF not talking enough.
Iongues do not wag because their owners
are cheerful; the cheerfulness comes as a
result OF the tongue wagglng.
These welcome words fell recently from
the lips Of a London medical authority.
and he has gondescended to explain tho
reasons, too. for his theory
The talking apparatus is. Of course"
says he, connected with the brain. When
you talk YOU stir up. by means OF the
connecting nerves. the blood vessels OF the
prain' which consequently demand more
blood Fresh blood is therefore drawn In,
the circulation is stimulated and moro
blood Is created This necessarily makes
Tor ntness and cheerfulness and then tho
cheerfulness reacts and makes YOU want
TO talk more"
Take every opportunity OF talking to
yourself. You can also sing and whistle
thihgs very good for the lungs and crcu-
'atlon II Tie walls are thin. and your
taking annoys the people In the next
apartment try talking In your bath. You
can declaim then with all your might, and
the splashing will prevent people thinking
You are iunAtto ~ large"
