The PhiIOsophy of DiseasI

The philosophy of disease is subject which
is well worthy the attention of mankind, but
is, unfortunately, more generally neglected
than any other under heaven, Decidedly the
most important fact that an examination Of it
discloses is that, in nine cases out Of ten, the
originating causes of disease is debility, either
general or local, and that the earliest mani
iestations of its approach are identical with
those which evidence lack of vital power
Such being the case, it is perfectly clear that
tonic treatment is what is required in the first

the route from Cheyenne murIhward
l. the safest, sictdICst, cheapest and

FROM CHEYENNE TO TIE BLACK
HILLS.
There are two routes that MAY be
taken 10 the hills from here. The
one by way of Fort Larnmie, Raw
Hide ButleS, Old WonIan's Fork
and Beaver Creek is 1872 miles. This
route passes through II settled coun-
try for n hundred miles or so. Good
ranches will be found every few
miles as far as Fort Laramie. There

States mail to and from the Fort,
and also passengers at ten dollars n
piece. This line will he extended to
the Black Hills right away, If the
government permits it to he done.
The road is an unusually good one,
and is constantly travelled by the
military, by freighterS, by ranch
men, settlers and others. The fol-
route is correct:
