QUESTION
OF OPEN OR CLOSED SHELVES IN
PUBLIC LIBRARIES REcEIv-
ING SOME ATTENTION.
Being Discussed at Denver and PERTH
nent In Laramie, In View Of the
Fact that Carnegie Building Will
Be Erected This Summer-Theft
Of Books One Drawback.

The following from the editorial col
umns of the Denver Republican of
Sunday is of peculiar interest here just
now, in view of the fact that the Car
negie building will be erected this
summer and the Albany county libra
ry put on a much broader plane. The
matter is receiving some attention
here, and while Mrs. Roach says the
theft of books under the open shelf
she finds much opinion against the
plan. She Is taking a census of the
sentiment Of users of the library,
which will be made public in time.
In the meanwhile discussion is a good
thing. The Republican says:
The order closing the shelves Of
the city library to the public, thereby
preventing people from going among
the books and making their selections
according to what they may upon such
an investigation find to be desirable,
has caused. so much dissatisfaction
that 1t has been chosen as a subject
Of discussion at a meeting to be held
in the Woman's club building Tues
day evening.
"The members of the library board
have been invited to attend this mee--
ing and several of them have express
ed their intention to be present. Other
speakers have been selected, and it is
the purpose to make the discussion So
open that all sides of the controversy
will be given an opportunity to be
heard.
THE order closing the shelves was
issued in consequence of the large
losses through theft caused by allow
ing any and every person to go among
the books with little or no restraint.
1t seems that several thousand books
were lost to the library in this way,
and to prevent this drain the order
excluding the public was made.

ADDRESS ON FAITH
AT UNIVERSITY VEsPERS.


Hon. B. B. Brooks Of Casper. who is
here to deliver an address at the short
, course in stock raising at the univer.
sity today. vas the speaker at the uni
versity vespers yesterday afternoon,
a large number of the leading people
of the city being present to hear him
Mr.. Brooks. though. as he says, lis on
ly a plain ranchman." is one of the
most interesting and entertaining
speakers that ever faced an audience
at the university Oh a like occasion.
He is plain spoken and tense, and his
address will compare with the best. He
spoke on Faith and Progress the
and the progress that in a decade will
make Wyoming M of the best states
in the west. He is intensely loyal, and
at times his audience, though listening
to a Sunday address in a religious
gathering, could hardly refrain from a
burst of applause at times. To say
that Mr.. Brooks made a most favor
able impression would be but mildly
stating a patent fact He was given
a warm greeting by scores Of his
friends after the address. which lasted
for twenty-five minutes.
Miss Vie Willetts of the university
presided at the meeting in a very
graceful manner and a seXette compos-
ed of Misses Allie March. Mary Powell.
Mildred Mcintosh. Margaret Mcintosh,
Laura Lee and Grace Peabody sang
very sweetly. with Mrs. Clark at the
piano.

"on the other hand it is contended

On the other hand 1t Is contended
that the great majority Of persons who
might avail themselves of the privi-
lege of examining the books on the
shelves are honest, and that they
should not be subject to great annoy
ance and inconvenience because Of the
dishonesty Of a few, v e though the
open shelf system should result in
some loss. 1t Is claimed that since the
library belonges to the public, the
losses through theft should be borne
rather than subject honest men and
women to the restraints imposed by
the order.
THE meeting will be open to the
public and all who may care to do SO
will be given an opportunity to express

we know that we are children of nature.
The earth has nourished us through
unknown ages of human existence. Is
it not true that the earth supplies us
with everything that we really require for
existence? We can live on vegetables
and fruit which the earth produces. We
would probably be better off to-day as
a race without meat. Have you ever
thought that it is probable that the earth
supplied us with the means to keep our
bodily vigor, our health, if we only
knew it? The animals know by instinct
what is good for them and will search
until they find in some plant what they
need for correcting indigestion or con-
stipation, etc. Is it, therefore, not pos
sible that there are roots and herbs sup
piled by nature which will cure the
diseases that afflict human kind? That
is why DIR. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. ", has
such faith in his Medical Discovery
Years ago, when he was in general and
active practice, he found that a combi-
nation of certain herbs and roots made
into an Alternative extract, without the
use of alcohol, would always put the
stomach into a healthy condition, nour-
ish the tissues, feed the blood and nerves
and put healthy tone into the whole
system.
There are some people who can lose
fat to advantage, but the loss of flesh is
one of the accepted evidences of failing
health. As flesh-making processes be-
gin in the stomach, so naturally when
there is loss of flesh we look first to the
stomach for the cause. And the cause
is generally found to be disease of the
stomach and digestive and nutrive tracts,
resulting in loss of nutrition and conse-
quent physical weakness.
