Population of each State and Territory, of all
Counties of the United States, and of American

IT CONTAINS much special Information regarding any Nation, Province
State, City, Town or Village desired. The knowledge is rarely obtainable
from a school geography, which necessarily has only a few general tacts and
the location of important cities.
Railroad maps are notoriously incorrect and misleading, hence the puzzled
truth-seeker, where large libraries are inaccessible, is without relief unless he
it the happy owner of a knowledge-satisfying, pleasure-giving People's Atlas.
All Countries on the face of the earth are shown.
Rivers and Lakes are accurately located.
All the large Cities of the World, the Important Towns and most of the

Why the Ta.iUt, Traveler aaslMadrat
hbauM Visit I'Uh.
There are two reasons, either one of
which ought to be conclusive with
every American citizen.
First. The trip from Denver to Utah
via Rio Grande Western, "Great Salt
Lake Route," Is the grandest to be
found anywhere on the continent. No
European trip of equal lengtn can com
pare with it In variety and grandeur of
scenery and wealth of novel interest.
StxomL You should go because, when
you have made this wonderful trip, you
will find Utah at the end of it-Utah,
one of the world's famous spots, and a
land of gold, silver, copper, iron and
coat; of lofty mountain and fertile val
leys; of vineyards, fruits and flowers.
Salt Lake City, the capital, is of great
Interest on account of Its historical and
religious associations. Here are Hot
Thermal Springs, Warm Springs, Sul
phur Springs, Sanitarium, Parks,
Drives, Canyons and the most health
ful climate on earth. Great Salt Lake,
with the new and beautiful Saltalr
Beach Resort, of Moorish design, has
no equal in America. Write to P. A
Wadlelgh, Salt Lake City, for copies of
pamphlets, etc
1200.00 I. UOLD GIVEN.

UTAU-THE 45TII STATE.
The Horneseeker's Promised Land.
The territory of Utah entered the
Union of States on January 4th, 1S00,
with a population of about 200,000 peo
ple and a climate unsurpassed in the
wide world. It is richer in agricul
tural resources than any other state.
It has within its borders nearly all of
the known minerals and metals gold,
silver, copper, Iron, tin, etc., In abun
dant quantities. It has, best of all, a
health-giving climate, always temper
ate In summer and in winter. It has
hot sulphur springs, and is in fact one
large sanitarium. Utah is the ideal
place to build a home in which to
spend the balance of your days, sur
rounded by farm and orchard which
guarantee all the necessities and most
of the comforts of life. There are mil
lions of such homes now awaiting set
tlement. Send to F. A. Wadlelgh,
Salt Lake City, for copies of Utah
pamphlets. It will pay you to pest
yourself on the merits of the new state,
which has been amply termed "The
Promised Land."
What C. A. Totter Says.
Omaha, Neb., Aug. 31, 1895. The
Howard Medicine Company. Gentle
men : I deeire to say to all who feel the
strength of their manhood slowly slip
ping away, whose ambition Is at its
lowest ebb, whose mind Is beclouded,
and the senses dulled, when you feel
dyspeptic, and lose your self-respect,
that your blood is out of order, and all
you need is some of Howard's Vegetone
Blood Powder to tone up your system.
It will act almost instantly upon the
blood; you will feel the renewed life
and vigor coursing through your sys
tem; you will feel the old-time grip in
your hands; your mind will be as active
asever; your friends will observe the
Sag of health flying In your face, and
you will feel like a new being. I have
not felt so well for five year as I do
since taking one package of your Blood
Powder, and I feel as strong and active
as ever. I weigh 15 pounds more than
ever in my life. The change is so
marked that it is the subject of com
ment when meeting my friends. I
recommend Howard's Vegetone Blood
Powder to be, as I believe, the greatest
blood-purifier on earth.

THE WIZARD AND THE WHIP.
Bs Performs Sou. of lh. Mint M.rv.l
ous Tricks With It.
A decided sensation ban ln-en created
In Vienna by a man who probably
stands alone in this world In his par
ticular line of performance, says Tit
Bits. This gentleman's name is risk
slug and he is an Austro-Hungarlan by
birth. He Is an expert, or rather a
phenomenal artist, In the use of '.he
whip.
The first thing he does Is to take a
long lashed, stout handled whip In each
hand and .with orchestral accompani
ment proceed to crack or snap them at
a terrific rate. The Bound made by his
whips In this manner is graduated from
a noise like a rifle report to the soft
click of the billiard ball. It makes a
curloussortof music and serves to show
how he can regulate the force of each
stroke.
More interest, however, Is evinced
when he seizes a vicious looking whip
with an abnormally long lash. It is
provided with a very heavy handle of
medium length. This is his favorite
toy and what he can do with it is really
wonderful. He first gives an idea of
what fearful force there lies In a whip
lash in the hands of an expert.
A large frame, over which is stretched
a calf or eheep skin, is brought on the
stage. This Is marked with dots of red
paint The man with the whip steps
up and swinging the lash around his
head lets fly at the calf skin. With
every blow he actually pulls a piece
right out from the leather, leaving a
clean cut hole.
These pieces are distributed among
the audience to show that there is no
trickery about the performance. After
this he takes a frame with three shelves.
On these there are a dozen or more of
medium sized apples lying very close
together and provided with large num
bers. Any one in the audience may
designate which apple he wishes struck
and the unerring lash snatches it out
like a flash.
A still more difficult feat is the snap
ping of coins from a narrow necked
bottle. A small piece of sliver about the
size of half a crown is put over the cork
of the bottle, which stands on the edge
of the table. The whip artist, without
appearing to take any sort of aim, sends
the long lash whizzing through the air
and picks off the coin without jarring
the bottle ,much less breaking it.
HOW TO TREAT PIANOS.
Half the Instruments In this Country
Catch Winter Colds. .
Half the pianos In this world catch
winter colds exactly as we do, says the
New York Mercury. They get hoarse,
or have a cough, or a stiff note, or some
similar complaint which cannot be
oured by home remedies, but require
tedious and expensive doctoring. In
order to prevent these avoidable ail
ments It is as well to know how to take
care of the Piano. Each spring-cleaning
housewife who is having the do
mestic piano "put to rights" during her
present upheaval of the household
should very carefully observe the in
strument. A piano Bhould be kept in
a moderately warm room where the
temperature is even, say 60 or 70 de
grees, the year round; not cold one day
and hot the next. The instrument
should not, however, be too near the
source of heat It should be kept closed
and covered with a felt cloth when not
in use, particularly in frosty weather.
Always place the piano against an In
side wall and a little out from it When
tuning or repairing is necessary em
ploy a responsible and expert workman.
Do not allow children to drum on it
A professional musician may expend a
like amount of strength upon the key
board but if the right keys are struck
much less harm is done than when chil
dren amuse themselves. Avoid litter
ing the top with bric-a-brac, as it af
fects the tone of the instrument.
A well-known maker recommends
that the case be frequently wiped off
with a chamois skin wrung out in tepid
water. Where the case is very highly
polished and dark this is absolutely
necessary and little else will serve to
remove the dust which settles in the
fret work.
To remove finger marks and blue
mold, mix thoroughly two tablespoon
fuls of salad oil and one tablespoonful
of vinegar. Rub on a little of this mix
ture with a soft rag and polish with a
woolen cloth.
P.rfnmlnr Burglar.
A man named Frank March recently
broke into a doctor's house in Camber
melK England. The doctor happened
to be in and he at once hurled a bottle
containing peppermint at the intruder.
March, who was seeking money, got
nothing but a scent It clung to him
when he was taken before the Lambeth
magistrate. The odor of the pepper
mint had been the clew that led to his
arrest. The circumstantial evidence
against him is, literally, strong, as the
Cambermell doctor never dilutes his
peppermint. The housebreaker will set
up the defense that peppermint is a
pleasing perfume and that he cannot
therefore be considered in bad odor.
