ENCAMPMENT.

The most practical road hat can be
made from Laramie to the Grand En-.
campment and Cow creek gold camps,
is by going from Laramie via Middle
Fork of the Little Laramie and cross
Douglas creek about four miles above
the mouth of Moore's gulch, thence due
west, strike the old road about sir
miles from Moore's gulch and will cut
OF about eight miles; this w%oulusstrike
Parkhurst bridge ON the Platte river
and from there to Grand Encampment
there is a good road. This road is
about seventy-five miles from Laramie
to Grand Encampment and Cow creek.

Food for Thought.

Every successful man is an emer-
gency man.
A weak constitution can be strength
ened, but weak set of brains
can't.
1t is not always necessary to tell the
whole truth, but all that you tell
should be the truth.
Much learning shows how little
workings enjoy.
A wise man is never confounded by
what he doesn't understand, but a
fool generally lie.
Whoever has a good temper will
be sure to have many other good
things.
Have nothing to with a little sin, or
you will soon be IN the power of big
one.
Disinterested kindness will burn
like fire, when We know that We do
not deserve it.
To compare what we receive by
what We deserve will make any 30 ly
thankful.
The top round of the ladder is an
imaginary. one; nobody has ever
reached it yet.
Apelles used to paint good house
wife on a snail, to import that she
was home keeper.
Scatter sound literature, aud the
harvest will come in due season.
The trouble market Is easy, and it
can always be borrowed II low rates.
Hush money usually talks for both
parties interested in the transaction.

works, it is amusing to watch the be-
havior of the man who cannot get rec

the hour is late and central IL sleepy,
he goes through this performance:
He turrs the handle sharply, jabs
the receiver at his ear, and shouts "Hel-
Ior through the transmitter. After
waiting a moment or 10, he repeats
the action. Still no answer. Then, un-
less he is a church member, be uses
language that he would not wish his
wife to hear, and twists the handle
Of the calling bell until his wrist aches.
1t does not disturb central. No bells
ring in the telephone exchange. When
the subscriber rings q lozenge-shaped
aisk drops, and the number Of the call
ing phone Is exposed. That IL all. 1t
remains exposed until central answers
the call and puts the disk back. II
