Young people shor Id acquire the
habit of correct speaking and writ
ing, and abandon as early as pos
siple any slang words and phrases.
The longer you put this off, the
more difficult the requirement of
correct language will be; and if the
golden age Of youth, the proper
season for the acquisition of Ian
guage, be passed in its abuse, the
unfortunate victim will most prob
ably be doomed to talk slang for
life. You have merely to use the
language which you read, instead
Of the slang you hear to form a
taste in agreemant with the speak
ers and poets of the country.

Four of the finest work horses
in Telluride plunged to their death
last week over a cliff, 500 feet to
the bottom. They carl led with
them a bob sled loaded with
furniture. The horses were in
stantly killed, the harness all
broken and the bob sled aud
furniture completely smashed. The
driver left the team stand for few
minutes in front of hotel, when
the wind and snow caused them
to become restless and they started
tor the the hills. The driver
mounted a saddle horse and took
after them, arriving at the cliff just
as they went over and be saw them
strike the bottom. The loss was
over $1,000
