FAULT OX BOTH SIDES.
TbeDeseret News, with Its solid,
concrete policy, sizes up the present '
' . i i
situation in the following , sensible
manner, and, In bo doing it drives
home a few points to everyone who
has faced the problem of life.
"Sometimes men are heard to com-
' plain of financial conditions and rail
against society and its various Insti
tutions. To ' Judge from their talk
' they would like to join a crowd and
jroceed to wreck everything, In the
spirit of the mob that caused havoc
during the French revolution.
"Without question there is much
that could be otherwise, and would
be otherwise if the spirit of brother
hood, or even fairness, Instead of ra
pacious selfishness were the govern
ing principles, as it ought to be af
ter so many centuries of preaching.
Trusts , oppress the people. Prices
are too high for the prevalent wages.
And may things are different from
what they wlll'be when Mlllenlal con-,
' ditlons , prevail. '. vv
"On the other hand it cannot be'
denied that the opportunities actually
offering themselves ; to most people
In this country are not grasped. The
papers have told the story of a New
Yorker who established a record by
saving a small home an da bank ac
count of more than $1000 from the
small earnings of $7 a week. While
the average individual might not wish
to be as thrifty as the New Yorker
must have been In order to achieve
this result, he could have much more
of the saving spirit than he has with
out harm to himself. If this man
could procure a home and save up
$1000 on the small su mof $7 a week
what could not the man who earns
: from $25 to , $40 a week do ? ,' Un-
' doubtedly the New Yorker of the pret
ty little story had an excellent wife
; who did the saving, and undoubtedly,
he was. what . every wife ought to
be, the treasurer of the family!
"But what we desire to call atten
tion to is this, that a great many dis
contented men In our day have ho
Idea of, and no desire to practice fru
gality, though that Is a virtue of no
,low degree.-, You will find them amok
Ing cigars, drinking,, attending amuse-,
ment halls and pleasure resorts, and
all the time complaining of hard
times. Extravagence Is the besetting
sin Just now. People with moderate

luxuries enjoyed by the rich; the
clerk must have tailormade suits the

An Egg Tape Worm.
The egg tapeworm Is the latest dis
covery in parasites according to a
letter JuBt received from Major Lee
Morenouse from a niece who , in u
egg candler In a packing plant at
Blnghampton, New York. , As this
young lady has discovered three of
these dlmunltlve animals in as many
different eggs during the past few
months it would Beem that those who
are accustomed to taking their eggs
raw had better be sure that they are
fresh from good healthy Oregon hens.
The young lady states in her letter
that during the past winter she
found something that looked like a
tapeworm in an egg. As it was a
curiosity at the plant the manager
took the animal to his physician who
pronounced it a parasite and a spe
cie of the tapeworm.
Last week she ran across another
one and the steward of . the state
hospital being in the store, he took
it up to the chemist of the institu
tlon for a minute examination and
classification. On the day the letter
was written she had found another
and this one she Intended to keep.
She expected to preserve It In the egg
watching It from time to time to note
developments.
She says the worms were about ah
eighth of an Inch In width and the
head was so pronounced that it was
easily discrnable-rE. O. -

Dorothy Morton is one of the very

art as a commedlenne, place her in
a position where she has no rival.
She comes to the Steward next Sat
urday. The latest song successes will
be heard In "Widow Jones,", rendered
by Dorothy , Morton and her clever
company, while the bevy of handsome
show girls are Bure to win admiration
from both sexes. The production of
"Widow Jones' will be a lavish one
and no expense has' been spared by
Miss Morton's mangers to present her
In a manner worthy of her high pro
fesslonal standing.
