Mormon Ban on Plural Marriage.
President Smith, OF the Mormon
church, has uttered a threat to those
members OF his fold who may be liv-
ing In polygamous relations. declaring
that they will be dealt with" If found
guilty This statement was made on
April 6, at the opening Of the annual
conference held in Salt Lake City, and
was backed up by several other decla-
rations contradicting some OF the anti
Mormon articles that have been ap-
pearing in various magazines. Indeed
he asserts that no man in the church
has authority to solemnize plural mar
liages." 1t is his belief that they have
ceased; and he claims that they are
doing all in our power TO prevent plural
marriages"
The Salt Lake Tribune. which is
anti Mormon in its sympathies. and
claims to have printed the names OF
upward of 230 new polygamist Offend
ers." comments thus upon the dis
claimer made by President Smith of
plural marriages and the reiteration of
these being under the ban OF the
church. and having ceased. SO far as
church authority is concerned:

that hundreds OF these new polyeamis ST
marriages have occurred, and there has
been discipline applied in only a few
cases, not TO exceed half a dozen at
the most, SO far as known. A mere
disclaimer OF this kind therefore does
not exonerate the church because 1t is
evident that only by church authority
or by assumed church authority car
any plural marriage at all be entered

TELEPHONE ETIQUETTE,

The telephone, like all our modern
Improvements, is not an unmixed
blessing. II is one of the great con-
veniences Of modern times. and also
one Of the great nuisances that annoy
the present-day business man The
main reason for all this is the people
have not yet learned how TO use the
telephone, nor when to use 1t. 1t is the
usual practice for any one to call up
business man at any hour of the day
whether it is a kind or considerable
thing to do, or whether it is good bus
mess practice. We call up a per-
son by telephone when we would 20.
think of calling at his place of business
without an appointment. We rattle
the telephone bell in his office. calling
him away from his duties in some 9TH
or part of his place of business, when
we would not think of ding longing a
bell in his establishment if we person
ally called. We will call up and ask to
phone without giving our name, when
we would not think Of personally call
ing without sending in name or a
business card.
Modern business usage is fast curing
these evils, and out of the necessities
ct the case certain rules must result
which will remedy these Things. rnere

telephone as it ought to be used; when

The Value Of Ideals.

VIVA: ne make &c ourselves depends
upon the Ideals which We habitually
hold. Our lives are shaped upon our
mental models If these be high. the
life is lofty; if low, it groveIs. Man
is no better than his ideals. The stream
can not rise higher than it's source.
our work can never overtop our ideal,
our ambition. 1t is great thing to
keep the constant suggestion of high
ideals, OF things that are grand and
noble in human achievement, in the
mind. 1t tends to make US love the
right and hate the wrong.
There is one thing we ought to hold
in such saeredness that no considera-
ton could induce US TO dilute it. and
that is the quality Of the life, the quail
