It was after one of those long silent periods which are always more elequent than words, that the following dialogue ensued: Romeo Darling I have a great favor to ask which I fear will offend you. Juliet Dearest you should not fear to ask, as you should know that any-thing I can do for your sake, no mat-ter how great the sacrifice, would- - be a pleasure to me.

Wise and Otherwise The flies are getting thicker in Bingham every day and the ordinary swatters are of but little use because they breed so fast that there are al-ways new ones to take the place of those caught by the swatter. The boys say that jacx Dean went to Fish Lake to deliver the 24th of July oration and to explain to the fel-lows about trench warfare and the of shells, the machine guns, and various features about the war Including geography. One of the fellows here is so well pleased with the toast of an Arkan-sas man that he thinks it ought to appear in the Wise and Otherwise column. It reads as follows: "Mr. Toastmaster: Ladies and gen-tlemen you have asked me to respond to the toast, ''Water" the purest and best of all the things that God created. I want to say to you that I have seen it glisten in tiny tear drops on the sleeping lids of infancy; I have seen It trinkle down the blushing lids of youth, and go in rushing torrents down the Wrinkled cheeks of age. Have seen it in .tiny dew drops on blades like polished diamonds when the morn ing sun burst in resplendent glory over the eastern hills. I have seen it in the rushing river rippling over peb-bly bottoms; roaring over, precipitious falls in its mad rush to join the mighty father of waters. And I have seen it in the, mighty . ocean on whose broad bosom float the battle fleets of the world, but ladies and gentlemen, I want to say to you now, that, as a beverage, it is a damn failure. A. federal employee, whose wife is on the west coast, is now living all to himself in a big house and he says it is mighty lonesome there now with-out any women folks to cheer him. The wife is not expected home for about two weeks. One of the boys received a message from his girl in New York City this week. The following item Is v contributed to the .Wise and Otherwise by a citi-zen: ' That a well known "reformer" who has been willing to assume the respon-- ' sibility of correcting the morals of the 'Bthgham citizens, is now quite busy trying to explain the difference in val-ue between a thirty pound porker ffid two tons of coal. A certain gentleman while in a cer-tain confectionery sometimes cannot take a joke and tries to blame it on the girl by putting a piece in the Wise and Otherwise about her, but it always turns out to be an absolute failure. Who Is the young gentleman who takes one girl home one night and a different one the next and also has one or two down at Midvale. A young man who is soon to return from California will hear some very pleasant news shortly after his ar-rival. One of the boys who spent the lat-ter part of the week at Salt Lake and nearby resorts Is .wondering If some-one could not invent an unbreabakle straw hat ' It is said that the "hired help" were in Salt Lake some days ago looking over some marriage , certificate blanks. One of the Federal employes is all smiles these days and the reason as signed is- that her ship has come in bearing a soldier from France.

Hughes Makes State-ment on Free Clinic for Treat-ment of Venereal Disease in Letter to Mayor of Provo, Recently the Federal inspector for Utah . visited Provo with regard to venereal disease and its eradication. After looking 'the city over and con-ferring with Dr. E. G. Hughes on con-ditions here, he made a recommenda-tion to the federal authorities that Provo does not need a clinic such as Is being established in some other cities of eight thousand inhabitants or above. Some other suggestions on this phase of the subject may be brought out when Dr. Bamling makes his written report on Provo. In this connection Dr. E. G. Hughes submitted the following letter to May-or LeRoy Dixon with reference to es-tablishing a free clinic for the treat-ment of venereal disease in Provo: "In my opinion it would be inad-visable to establish a free venereal clinic in Provo. ' Judging from my experience in examining all the men in Utah county between the ages of 21 and 31 and a great many between 31 and 45 and also between the ages of 18 and 21, I am inclined to think that about 65 per cent of this class of cases in the state are found in Salt Lake City and Ogden. Further-- more, knowing this community as I do, I doubt very much if there would be any among us who would apply for treatment at such a clinic. "If the necessity arrises with cases who may require free treatment Utah county is prepared at its Infirmary with at least six beds." PEACH AND APPLE CROP WILL BEJLARGE Wm.M. Roylance who is one of the biggest fruit dealers In Central Utah in discussing the fruit crop for Utah county, stated yesterday that in his opinion the peach and apple crop both would be very excellent. He stated that in the face of the fact that we had had a long dry spell and a scar-- - city of water for irrigation purposes. The market will be better than any previous year according to Mr. Roy-lance. The cherry crop which has just been harvested was the largest in the his-tory of the county, there being more than 500 cars of cherries shipped, which had found a ready and profit-able market, the growers getting from v six to eight cents a pound for them. The potatoe crop, he states, will be short this year, the hot dry weather having retarded their growth and in many parts of the county prevented a part of the crop from coming up. From the present outlook he Is of the opinion that all the products, both in fruit and vegetables, would find a ready market this fall. WHOM!) FOR SALE Elias Thpmas proper-- , ty at No. 0 Main.

ARTHUTR PELKY DISCUS-ES WILLARD-DEMPSE-Y FIGHT Big Canuck Who Accidently Killed Luther McCarthy and Has Fought Both Dempsey and Willard Now Works in DetPjot Factory. Detriot, July 28 "I have mixed it with both the big boys who recently earned a lot of easy dough at Toledo. July 29, 1912, I fought Willard ten rounds to a draw in New York City and some of the experts gave me the decision. Seven years ago Willard was no soft bird. "A year ago Decoration day I ran .Into one of Dempsey's wallops at Den-ver and took a long sleep. He treated me just as rudely as he did the big .. champ at Toledo. The only diffenence : is I didn't do so much hesitating on . staying down. "Jess Willard was trimmed on the ' Fourth primarily because he was sii-- ; premely and foolishly overconfident. He. had never felt the floor and thot he never would. He won every fight in the past by leting the other man v come to him. The only time he ever . changed was at Toledo and look what happened. "As to Dempsey he is wildcat who devours bis prey under the Marquis - of Queeusbury code. But dont say he is small. That is not fair to his . opponents. Along side of Willard, yes. . But Dempsey Is a powerful 200 pound-- ' er and plenty big enough and young enough to reign for many years. "Although Dempsey put me out I am still heavyweight champion of Canada, and will box next month, the first public exhibition in a year. I like to box, but' my Chalmers factory job and my farm keep me out of fighting as a business.' Arthur Pelky is now employed in the foundry of the Chalmers Motor Company. Canada's Water Power.
