Neglected colds always
lead to something serious.
They run into chronic
bronchitis, pneumonia,
asthma, or consumption.
Don't wait, but take
Avcr's Cherrv Pectoral
just as soon as your cough 3
begins. A few doses will
cure you then.

The Marriageable Age.
In Germany a "man" in ordpr to
marry must be at least 13 years of

must be 18 and the "woman" 16. In
llelglum the same ages. In Spain
the Intended husband must have
passed his 14th year and the "wom

They were cnrcftil. In order to over
come In pint nt lenst the nullpiiHiy to
iiiiytliliiu Mormon, to insist Hint Hie

polygiiniy wus no longer one of lis tar
illnul iloctrines. They nilniltted (hot
the old lenders hnd pructlceil polyititiuy
nml tluit while they were obeying tin
letter of the Inw in Hint I her lived
with but one wife they were nut shirk

stilt ulive.
In I heir criismle they were nided by
Hip general belief Hint the t'hurch littil
submitted to the Inevlt.'ti-'.e Mini hnd
Imtilshed polygamy. They held public
meetings ill so and openly sought for
ronverts. That they were successful
wns proved by the number of congre
gations they organized In various parts
of Nebraska, Kansas nml Iowa.
The campaign now being prosecuted
Is n masked one. It Is no longer In
sisted on that polygamy has been ban
ished from the Church. In n coverl
way It Is stated Hint they are now
seeking converts to the Church he
rn use polygamy Is possible in I'tah and
Idaho, where the Mormons nre the
dominant power In politics.
One of these missionaries Is quoteil
as having said recently In n talk with
prospective converts that Hip true Mor
mons linve iipvt-r relinquished their
polygamous beliefs, ami that lie ex
pecteil to secure ninny cotiverls be
cause most men nre by Instinct poly
gamous, and Hint In n church gov
erned and run as n business organiza
tion a plurality of wives Is not only not
n burden, but n distinct help to world
ly prosperity.
These nrguments, coulincd ns they
nre to the less educated part of the
population, have been bearing fruit.
nnd It Is said that the spring will see
a considerable Immigration lo the two
States limned.
These missionaries have been quot
ing leaders of the Church us saying
that the law of plural marrliige Is (.oil
given, and that no Mormon need fear
niiin-mailo laws. They are also lic
ensed of tempting (heir prospective
converls with a picture of Mormon su
premacy In the future by reason of
the fact that plurality of wives menus
larger families, aud that as the aver
age nou-Moriiion family numbers no
lnore than three children. In time Hit
whole earth will be tilled by the. true
believers. They seek to prove that in
ancient days according to both their
HI hie and that of the Christian Church,
polygamy was not reganled as n sin.
Iu fact these missionaries nre preach
ing the old gospel according to Joseph
Smith, but with more ciiiinlug nnd di
plomacy. Here In the West It Is rec
ognized that the Mormon Church holds
the balance of political power In Wyo
ming, Nevada and Idaho, which means
that Its very practical leaders tlud It
easy to make bargains with the ma
chine politicians, who iu turn for votes
grant immunity from arrest and prose
cution to those Mormons who discreet
ly "desire to continue their old prac
tices. Even In the most llagraut cases
of violation of the Autl-Pnlygauiy law
only nominal fines nre assessed, and
most of the offend,".'s Immediately re
turn to their wives.
The Itev. Mr. Llllywliitc, who has
been In charge of the Nebraska propa
ganda, says that the Church has uow
liOOO earnest nnd active missionavles
nt work In Iho United States. This In
eludes those who do tnis.slouary work
only, nml not those Iu thnrgo of
churches. 'e
It has been found (11 111 cult to secure
much of a foothold Iu the Slates east
of the Mississippi because oMue great
er prejudice that exists thero against
anything Hint bears the name of Mor
mon. Only scattered communities are
found In the Ohio Valley, aud there
are some In Pennsylvania also.
The policy of the Apostles, who have
charge of ull civil and religious mat
ters, hns lieen to bunch the believers
In one part of the country, aud when
converts are secured In the Kast every
Inducement Is held out to them to ket
tle In Utah, Nevada, Idaho or Wyom
ing. More recently the Apostles have
given orders to extend their domain a
little further to the east, to Include
Colorado, New Mexico nnd Inter It In
prcstiuied Kansas and Nebraska..
The antl-polygnmlsls in this region
have only recently become nwnre of
the extent, of the movi-nipnl, and they
nre now seeking to enlist Kastern sym
pathy In tlielr light ninlnst the exten
sion of Mornioiilsin. They declare that
the present missionary movement Is
Intended. In purl, to create a public
sentiment that will lint retard the
Mormon Church's growth, while nt Hie
same Hinn every effort is being mado
to gain a membership that will In the
future make It Impossible ever In pro
hibit polygamy by iimcmlmeut to the
Federal Const It in Ion.
One obstacle the null polygamlsts
have to contend Willi Is the political
power of Hie Mormons. Many of the
Mormon lenders are shrewd business
men. They may or may not be devout
believers In Moriiionlsni. but Ibey
know Hint there Is money mid worldly
station Iu the leadership of this peo
ple. They nre men who know, loo. how
to make political as well as mercantile
bargains, and they punish the breaking
of these colllracls its relentlessly ns
they would an Infraction of the church
law. It Is the political power which
these lenders wield Ihal Is giving their
followers comparative Immunity from
punishment for polygamy and Hint has
placed this ofl'disc Iu the same cate
gory with petit larceny and tllorilerly
conduct, so that It Is ptiubiicd, when
punished at all, by small Hues nnd no
Imprisonment.
dull some means hits been round to
prccnl local politicians from bargain
ing for Hie Mormt n vote, the itnll
polyuitinisls will Hud their work litef
