His Happy Home.

She sews the buttons on his shirt
And darns his socks with care.
She never fails to be alert
His every woe to share.
She lays his night clothes on the bed
And turns the covers down.
She never fills his heart with dread
BY suspicious frown.
She gives him what he likes TO eat
And never makes complaint,
And there is never when they meet
A hint of cold restraint
Her faith in him is deep and great.
She courts his least caress.
When he gets home TO dinner late
There is no bitterness.
She never scol6S because the folk
Next door have more than they.
On him she pauses to invoke
Gods blessing day by day.
She strives In every way to ease
The burdens OF his life,
You may have guessed ere this that she's
His mother, not his wife.

ANOTHER LESSON FOR VERMONT

ANOTHER LESSON FOR VERMONT.
Once more the Massachusetts, method
of putting murderers to death commends
itself for its most nearly humane fea-
lures, its dispatch and its entire lack
of bunglng features. As compared with
Vermont's Anticipated method of putting
to death through suspension by the neck,
electrocution represents modern thought
as opposed to ideas of past ages, and
the sooner Vermont takes the steps to-
ward establishing the electric chair in
place of the scaffold the better for the
state When Massachusetts, inhicts the
death penalty on any unfortunates, its
agents are not forced to go through the
horrible spectacle of again stringing up
the victim after the rope has parted in
the first drop of the trap and the body
has fallen to the floor; it is only nee
essary to again turn the current through
the unconscious form of the person sit
ting bound in the chair, and the end
comes without especially nauseating fea
lures. If Vermont wishes to take a pro-
gressive stand, while at the same time
retaining the death penalty, it should,
at the very next opportunity, revise its
methods in dealing with condemned muir
derers. To that end, the newspapers OF
the state can do a good service by inn
pressing their readers with the adyan-
tages of the substitution instead of
hanging. Why not do it?

Plan for New Trail.

Mr.. Ferustrom submitted to the meet
ing a. plan for an entirely new sheep trail,
leading through Salt Lake City into Davis
county and thence over the mountains
This route Is described as the Hardscrab-
bic trail. The representatives of the
sheepnen objected 10 this route as much
longer than the present ones and with
out facilities for watering the focks.
A counter proposition was advanced by
Mr., McAllister that, the Big Mountain
trail be used after being fenced in for
the entire distance IL parallels the creek,
cleared OF shrubbery TO prevent the sheep
from straying and the fence built so
solidly as to prevent filth being washed
into the stream, The plan contemplates
the sinking of sump holes al different
points along the trail and the removal
at freqdent intervals OF the filth that Is
washed into these holes.
Superintendent Barrett expressed him
self as emphatlcally opposed to any COM
promise BY which sheep may continue
to be driven over the Big Mountain trail,

years, time the sheepmen would be
barred from the canyons, you'll have
