With cheerful complacency the editor
of the Sun Yesterday published two con-
gratulatory letters which we're drawn out
by Chel enne's success in securing the
smelter plant. A lew days before the
same gentleman published a pronun-
ciamento congratulatlng himself upon the
same success. There seems to be a great
many claimants in the field, all clamoring
for the distinction of having secured the
smelter for cheyenne. By the time the
smelter is built there will probably be
enough OF them to form a third party.

The time can be approximately told at
night by the position of the dipper. If the
position of the pointers" is taken at any
given hour, say 6 o'clock in the evening
in the winter time and as soon as it is
dark in the summer, the hour thereafter
can be pretty accurately measured by
the eye during the night. Frequent OBJ
servations of positions will have to be
made at the given hour, as owing to the
constant changing of the earth's position
in space, the position of the pointers" in
relation to our point of observation and
the star also change.-Yankee Blade.

La Grippe.

The tendency of this disease toward
pneumonia is what makes it dangerous.
La Grippe requires precisely the same
treatment as a severe cold. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is famous for its
cure Of severe colds. This remedy
effec:ually counteracts the tendency of
the disease to result in pneumonia. pro-
vided the proper care be taken to avoid
exposure when recovering from the
attack. Careful inquiry among the many
thousands who have used this remedy dur
ing the cpidemics of the past two years
has failed to discover a single case that
has not recovered or that has resulted in
pneumonia. Fifty cent and 81 bottles for

mifuge in India for generations by the

why the information of hat fact has not
reached us before. When properly and
