People ought to know that the very
best thing they can do IS to eat apples
Just before retiring for the night. Per
sons uninitiated III the mysteries Of
the fruit are liable to throw up their
hands in horror at the visions Of dys-
pepsia which such suggestion may sum

to a delicate system by the eating of
ripe and juicy apples before going to
bed.
The apple. proceeds this authority, Is
excellent brain food because it has
more phosphoric acid IN easily digest

cites the action of the liver, promotes
sound and healthy sleep and thorough
ly dislnfscts the mouth. This Is not
all. The apple prevents indigestion and
throat diseases.-Family Doctor.

Simon Is a Central American mon
key, owned by a New Orleans man,
and In the same household Is Bruno,
a setter dog. Simon torrents Bruno
in every monkey way imaginable, and
the poor, honest fellow only OF late has
shown his resentment. Simon was
taking a quiet @slesta, sitting up In q
big chair with his head hanging over
the sill Of an open window, when Bru-
no came into the room and at nee
took In the situation. Without a bark
or a whine Bruno mounted upon his
hind feet, grasped the sash In his
mouth and, with a sharp jerk, pulled
it down, fastening the monkey by the
neck. Simon awakened and screamed
shrilly, but Bruno barked with delight
and seemed disguised when the mon
key was liberated by his mistress.

Story.
If you have read "Gulliyer's TRAY
els you know about the giant who
was found sleeping by the little pyg-
mics. You know, too, how hundreds OF
these dwarfs attempted to rope the big
fellow to the ground with their small
cords. This game Is something like
the story.
To begin a game every boy has to
collect n good pile Of dry leaves. Then
all Of these leaves must be heaped III
one great pile to be used by the dwarfs.
One player is a giant, another the
mother, while all the rest are dwarf
children. The mother and children
stand by the pile OF leaves, for that is
their home. The giant hides behind a
tree a little way off. The mother tells
the children that she is going out and
that they must be careful not to let the
giant ON into their home. While she
is gone CULVER steals one boy. When
the mother returns she ScoldS the other
children for letting the giant come in.
Then she goes out again. and CULVER
steals another child. This is kept up
until all the children have been stolen.
After this the giant lies down, pre-
tending to be asleep. The other play
ers try to cover him with arnfuls Of
leaves. When the last dwarf has
thrown his armful on the giant, Guilt
yer awakens. He tries to catch Of
the players, who must be the giant in
the new game. Then a new mother is
chosen. and the leaves are put i'll a pile
for another game.-St. Paul Pioneer

and appears to be disconnected with
all who arc in any way prominent or
likely TO receive the nomination. He
intimated that he has n candidate still
in reserve IT would be unkind to
suggest that he himself is that candi-
date The understanding is. as mat
ter of fact, that he means Governor
Shafroth of Colorado. Governor Shat
roth is Western man through and
through. a sound Democrat, but he is
too little known TO the party at largo
and in the East TO be considered at
this time real candidate. Still, it
would be good party politics for Mr.,
Bryan 10 encourage the candidacy OF
men like Shafroth, Wilson, Champ
Clark, and others, thereby cnsuring
that no ono should receive the neces.
sary two-thirds vote in the Democratic
National Convention, with the perhaps
hoped-foT likelihood of the convention
turning TO BRYAN in despair Of getting
any candidate so well known so pop
ular with the masses. and so thorough
ly familiar to the Democratic party.
There would be n good deal of reason
to say in Mr.. Bryan S behalf as n
candidate for the Democratic party,
that he is the best known and most Wig
orous leader which the party possesses
today. \ race between him and Roosc-
velt would, indeed, be lively ono, but
il would speak i'll for the sound iudg-
meDt of the American people if they
should put up these two as candidates, AS
against President Taft, however, we do
not believe that Mr.. Bryan would have
as hearty a support or as strong a vote
as he received in even the least sue,
cossful of his three runs for the Pres
idency.
Mr.. Bryan is popular with the Demo
cratic party everywhere, and the en-
thusiastic welcome which he received in
Utah is quite up to the best days of
his great popularity with his party.

THE "POTs AND KETTLES.

We submit to Chief Grant of the po.
lice department of this city the propo.
sition that it is time that he were
done dabbling with the cut glass and
| chiuaware. and turn his attention siren
uously and actively towards the ''pots
| and kettles of the criminal world.
| There have been a good many outrsges
OF various kinds recently; one Of them,
in fact, committed by the police on
an inotfensive working girl who was
guilty of no greater offenee than Of
going from her belated night work to
ber lodgings. That was a cruel out
rage. utterly indefensible. and blum
der such AS ought TO render the city
liable to exemplary damages. Then
here is the case of the girl, Katherine
Fisher, apparently abducted. drugged,
and held from her friends and her work
for three days. and the police know
no more about it than TO arrest the
man who was evidently her friend aud
benefactor. Also, the case reported
yesterday, of the assault on little
girl near the Jefferson school.
1t is no more than fair to say that
if outrages of this kind bad been per
petrated during the incumbency of the
American party. there would have been
din raised about them that would
have lifted the roof of the valley. The
opposition press, which was so vicious
in denouuciug the alleged inefficieucy
of the American party police force, sp
pears TO be quite content with the ac-
tiyity of the wickeder and baser Grim"
ipal element, and content that the
police force should spend its time and
energy in enforcing the lighter stat
utes. Interfering fooliehly with long
established customs. The statutes
against felouies falling in the ''pots
and kettles class, appear TO be be-
yond the present range of the police
activities, and to attract no effective
attention from them,
But surely. now that the police have
had almost two months to get ready
in, and to clear the kitchen OF the mild
~ smirched glassware and china, it is
not too much for the. people of this
city to expect that attention should be
given to the filthy pots and kettles,
and some effort made to cleanse the
baser elements so that the city viii
have a needed rest from crimes of vio-
leDce and fclonious assault. Chief
Grant has, according to his own ac-
count, a police force wholly respectable,
wholly honorable; and now let him
make it practically efficient on the
deeper offenses, and the people will re-
loire

COL. BRYAN IN UTAH.

Col. Bryan had a great audience to
hear him deliver his speech at the Co
lonial Theater in this city on Monday
evening. A good deal of the speech
was of the same old order: but the
Roosevelt candidacy offered him the
opportunity TO get in some new and
spicy shots, which he did not fail to
use. He VIII, III fact, from now on have
an unfailing supply TO draw from III
criticising Roosevelt's attitude towards
Taft When Bryan brings forward the
feryent endorsement which Roosevelt
gave 10 Taft four years ago, his ear
nest euloeium Of Taft as the best,
ever called to the Presidential chair
the best equipped III every way Of every
man who ever came to be President of
the United States, and that he was sure
TO make the ideal President. and all
that, one cannot fail TO see the oppor-
tunities thus open to Col Bryan for
sharp shots at Roosevelt and for the
exercise Of his best sarcastic powers
i'll considering the changed situation
Col. Roosevelt guaranteed President
as no man had ever been guaranteed
before by his predecessor in the Pres.
idcntial office. But now all is changed
and the only possible explanation of
that change is that Col. Roosevelt was
utterly mistaken in his judgment; hut
bow can a man run for President of the
United States on the basis of his mis-.
taken iudgment7 And, since this is the
whole substance of Roosevelt 5 candi-
dacy, il must prove surprisingly weak
wbeU really sized mp before the coun.
try.
Coy. Bryan naturally dwelt upon the
improved Democratic chances of sue
cess by reason of the broken pledges
OF the stand-patters with regard to
tariff revision. aud also BY reason of
the splits in the Republican party
There is the main split between Taft
and. Roosevelt. this on principle, where
Roosevelt plays the demagogue, and
Taft the man Of practical scuse. stand
ing for law. order. and the settled prin.
ciples Of the Republic, whereas Roose,
welt attacks these and would make d
chaos OF our American institutions
Then there is the La Toilette split
which appears Just now to be even
more bitter against Roosevelt than
| against Taft. and there is the scratch
on the surface indicating the Cum
Minis movement. which, in fact, has
made no particular impression upon the
country at large. Still. it will affect
some votes. possibly enough to change
a State or two, to the disadvantage OF
the Republicans.
| All this Col. Bryan set forth TO the
best possible advantage from his party
standpoint. II is all fair politics, also
10 call attention To these things. be
cause they. in fact. exist, and they exist
in the party TO which he is in opposi
tion. II must be confessed, however
that Mr.. Bryan is Just about as an
archistic party man TO the Democrat
as Col Roosevelt is 10 the Republicans
Bryan says sharp words against gooc
many Of the Democratic candidates
