HELPING OURSEL YES.

Everybody will at once agree that the
mau who sits in his store and expects
business to come to him is a fool, and yet
that is exactly what a good many Chey-
enne people are doing who would warmly
resent any imputation against their com
mon sense. Trade will no longer come of
its " accord anywhere. Inducements
must be offered it in the first place to
come. and in the second place to hold it.

.nlp his fingers at the public and tell it to
come or not Just as it pleases. If he is in
a competitive line of trade he must offer
bu,crs inducements either in the quality
of his goods or his prices.
The more widely known this fact be.
comes the more extended will the bust
ness be. If a person watches the course
of the large business houses in the big
cities he will find that they are continually
putting forth efforts to attract public at

The territory directly tributary to Chey-

town has been thrown more and more ON
its resources and people have very
unwillingly been forced to face the ques-

Cheyenne has been a much favored
community. 1t has grown as a matter of
course, without its citizens putting forth
any special effort to contribute to its
growth. FST years everything came our

to turn up in the most approved fashion.
1t never seems to occur to us that a little
effort on our own part might materially
contribute to the turning up process.

county would profit by it.
This is one way in which we might con-

and Maria Blunt-a very notable
array of story writer's. There are, in
addition, two richly illustrated arti-
Giles of unusual Importance. The

in this issue with an acute and lumi-

The author, NJ. N. Forney, secretary
of the master car building association,
is one of the most widely known
railroad menin the United States. He
has written from very full knowl-
edge, and has used crisp and lucid
style which makes an intricate sub
ject perfectly clear. The opening
pages of the article are a brief his
torical narrative, embracing the stages
In the development of the modern
"Decapodo from the primitive loco
motive built by Peter Cooper. How
steam is generated and how it propels
a locomotive are then explained. The
question of the number, size, and
position of the driving wheels with
reference to the speed and pulling
capacity of the locomotive is carefully
discussed the half hundred attach
ments in the locomotive cab by which
the engineer works the machine are
Indicated and the care which must
be taken to keep it in perfect order
is described. A brief account of the
development of the passenger car
from the old stage coach concludes
the article. Robert Louis Stevenson
tells in a light and humorous way the
story of an amusing adventure with
a French provincial magistrates
sketch in a new vein that adds still
further to the variety of his papers in

Octave Thanet (the author of "The
Day of the Cyclone") gives a dra-
matte account of the events which
followed a dynamite outrage grow

A sympathetic sketch of the New

are poems by Helen Gray Cone, A.

Inherited Diseases.

No fact of nature is more pregnant
with awful meaning than the fact Of the
inheritance Of disease
Modern science, which has illuminated
so many dark corners OF nature, has shed
q new light on the omiuous words of tho
scriptures, The sins OF the fathers,
shall be visited upon the children
unto the third and fourth generation. ~
Fifty per cent. of cases of consumption,
cancer and scrofula, run in families
through Inheritance. Insanity is hered-
itary in marked degree, but, fortu-
nately, like many other hereditary
diseases, tends TO wear itself out, the
stock becoming extinct. \ distiu-
gulshed scientist truly says: No organ
or texture of the body . exempt from
the chance of being the subject OF
hereditary disease" Probably moro
chronic diseases, which permanently
modify the structure and functions OF
the body, are more n less liable to be in
herlted. The important and far reaching
practical deductions from such facts
are obvious TO rejecting minds, and the
best means for preventing or curing
these diseases Is a subject OF intense in
terest to all, Fortunately naturs has
provided remedy, which experience
has attested as infallible, and the RENE
dy IS the world-famous Swift's Specific,
