Don't Put stinas In Words.

The girl with laughter in her eyes,
a pleasant smile for everybody, of
kind words and gentle deeds, will be
much more charming though far less
beautiful than the girl of pretty face
who is stuck up" supercilious, disa-
greeable and has an exalted opinion
of her own Importance.
While there is a charm in the pref
ty face there must be back of it
womanhood in its perfection. The art
of being a woman is indeed a great
one. There are women who always
do things right and there are others
who always do them wrong. How
often do we see this in public?
A woman imagines, often without
reason, that somebody is e%ncroaching
upon her rights. She cuts loose with
a volley of angry words, making her.
self intensely disagreeable. whereas
If she had spoken softly she would
have accomplished far more and there
would have been no sting in her
words.-Chicago Journal.

FRONTIER DAYS.

1t is a great satisfaction to all the
people of Wyoming that the city of
Cheyenne has decided not to give up
its frontier days celebration. This is a
distinctive exposition that belongs to
Wyoming, the last of the great range
states to pass from the frontier into
the more civilized ways and custom.

attempted to copy the frontier shows
but all are ~disagreeable m~akeshifts ant
do not compare with the original ant
only performance. None other is gen
uine. 1t comes. too, just at a time
when the people of sweltering Kansas
and superheated Nebraska are dying
to make a trip into the mountains.
The committee announces that it is
the purpose Of the capital city to give
a bigger and better performance than
ever before. Two days, August 10 and
Is, are to be given to the festivities.
There will be bucking contests and rop-
ing contests, of course, and there will
be a greater display of Indians than up
on former occasions, as the proud
Sioux viii contribute to the excellence
of the program. The Sioux are a more
warlike tribe than either the S~hoshones
or the Arapahoes, n are finer speci-
mems of aborigines. 1t was only a few
years ago that the Sioux gave Uncle
Sans troops a brush at Wounded
Knee. If the braves from Pine Ridge
can be induced to give a war dance, it
will doubtless be of a more inspiring
nature than hat given by either the
s~hoshones or the A~rapahoes. AT the
same time the braves will be more in
teresting to look pom and their curios
will be more anxiously sought after.

TO SEE STARS IN DAYLIGHT.
No Trouble at All, If You Followed
Professors Advice.

The astronomer, who was to lecture
in the town hall, rested c%ontentedly
after his MONDAY meal. His peace OF
mind, however, was soon disturbed by
the reception committee. who had
called to make the day pleasant fol-

having on its membership a young

words. and hen conclude his un.

FISHING WITH THE FLY.

Fly fishermen, who have been out
to try their skill, say that the season
y not yet quito far enough advanced.
The trout are still taking eagerly TO
the worm II grasshopper."
The foregoing is from the Cheyenne
Leader, whose editor is a lover of the
gentle art. But what do the sportsmen
OF Laramie say TO the statement that
the season is not open What do they
say in relation TO fishing with bait?
There are dozens of fishermen in this
city and county who scorn to use q
worm at any time of year. Early in
the season, when streams are roily,
some use minors with which to lure
the speckled beauties. but the worm is
a thing of the past.
Now is the time for fly fishing, 1t

Nelson Morris, the great beef packer,
looks upon the recent investigation and
disclosures as a greater calamity to the
American people than the San Francis.
CO disaster. Well, how can that be?
If the people do not eat the meat put
up by the packers, are they not just
that much better off financially? Is
not the money saved spent for some
other article of food? If I'VE are the
people" then Mr.. Morris is right. The
beef industry may suffer a temporary
reverse, but 1t will be improved by the
recent furry and will be stronger and
better than ever. New methods of in,
spection and their rigid enforcement
will give the American people conf
dence and they will eat the products
of the packers without stint. Under a
rigid system of inspection the export
trade will also grow and prosper. Mel
son Morris is a pessimist. He belongs
to that class that does not cart what
happens just so long as it does not
happen to them.

Praise the Little Folks.

If you wish to get a child to do its
best, encourage rather than discour-
age him; encouragement acts like a
wet blanket and puts out the fires of
ambition most effectually in the child
ish nature.
Children ought to be trained to be
~self.helpful; to know how to do for
themselves. 1t is a mistake to think
that they must be watched every
moment and have a nurse stand over
them from morning to night. A healthy
child is the better for being alone a
portion of each day.
1t is difficult to be always patient
and gentle with young children, but it
is best to inquire into the merits of a
quarrel before passing judgment. All
are liable to error, therefore liable to
misjudge. Children are very quick to
feel injustice, but gentleness and pa
thence are the surest and safest means
to bring about harmony and real jus
tice with the little ones God has
