SURE CURE FOR INSOMNIA
AND THE RESULTS FROM J.


SURE CURE FOR INSOMNIA
AND THE RESULTS FROM IT.
Yesterday a friend OF mine who had
heard that | sometimes suffer with in,
somnia, told me OF a sure cure. Eat a
pint of peanuts and drink two or three
glasses OF milk before going to bed"
said he. "and I'll warrant you'll be-
asleep within half an hour.
1 did as he suggested, and now, for
the benefit of others who may be affiicJ-
ed with insomnia. | feel 1t to be my
duty to report what happened, SO far
as | am able this morning to recall the
details.
First, let me say that my friend was
right; l did go to sleep very soon after
my retirement. Then a friend with
his head under his arm came along
and asked me if l wanted to buy his
feet. | was negotiating with him when
the dragon on which was riding slip
ped out of his skin and left me floating
in mid-air. While | was considering
how | should get down, a bull with
two heads peeped over the edge OF
the well and said he would haul me
up if | would first climb up and rig a
windlass for lin. So as | was sliding
down the mountain-side the brakeman
came in, and asked him when the
train would reach my station. I'VE
passed your station 400 years ago.
he said, calmly folding the train up and
slipping it into his vest pocket.
At this juncture the clown jumped
into the ring and pulled the center pole
out of the ground, lifting the people
and tent up, up, up, while | stood or
the earth below watching myself &C
out Of sight among the clouds above
While l was wondering whether
should ever meet myself again, and
whether 1t would be quite polite for me
to speak to myself without an intro
d%uction, the stage driver announced
that his horses had turned to stone
and before | had time to ask him what
he was going TO do about it | discover
ed my legs had grown so long that
couldn't e my feet without a tele
scope. l was seated on a horn of the
moon shortening my legs by tying bow
knots in them when a young woman
came out from the candy counter ant
she said she had been looking all ovel
creation for me and now she had foun,
me she would never, no never, let me
from her sight again. At this install

AND THEN SHE REMEMBERED
After All 1t Was a Matter of Small
Importance.

The man was taking an early
morning stroll when he met a
charming young girl, also enjoying o
stroll. Il was just wishing l might
meet you," he said, as he approached
her with the air Of one having at
least a claim Of friendship on her. The
girl lifted her eyebrows and regarded
him with q surprised look in which
there was not the slightest hint Of
recognition. The man looked a little
more than surprised. In fact he looked
and was shocked. "Of course you
haven't forgotten" he said, in a dazed
sort Of way. Forgotten what?" she
replied coldly. why last night-down
by the big rock-moon rise-soft muir
mur Of tide-don't you know" II
don't understand" she said, moving
away. "Why-er," he stammered, I'VE
became engaged down there last
night-fxed our wedding day-don't
you remember now?" A momentary
darkness o%'erspread the sweet girls
face, then the light of memory IL
iumined 1t. oh" she exclaimed pleas

we did," And passed on.

"In the medical world" said a we'll

ly accepted fact that every person
bears physical indications Of his pros

lived person may be distinguished
from a short lived person at sight. In
many instances a physician may look
at the hand of a patient and tell
whether he or she will live or not.
The primary conditions of longevity
are that the heart, lungs and digestive

In "Grandon Of Sierra Mr.. Charles
Il. Winter Of Encampment has given
to the literary world one of the most
notable productions of the past year
ard certainly the greatest literary
achievement eve performed by a Wyo-
ming man. In this day of the muck
raker it is certainly refreshing to have
a work that breathes of optimism and
all that Is good and noble in mankind.
Mr.. Winter presents Wyoming in its
most promising aspect. Through the
strikingly beautiful narrative is woven
a prediction of the fulfllment of all
the hopes and ambitions of h stock
raiser, the miner and the agriculturist.
Irrigation is discussed and its great
possibilities deity unfolded to the
reader, mining is made a part of the
plot and the villain is a seeker after
the hidden as we'll as the unhidden
wealth; stockraising is referred to "a
an incident of Wyoming's great future,
and IL magnificent climate and unsur-
passed scenery serve as subjects for
flights Of rhetoric.
The hero, Jack Grandon, is a young
doctor, college bred, strong in physi-
cal n mental attachments, embody-
ing all those attributes that so to make
up the ideal American citizen. The
scene of his operations is southern Car.
bon county-Encampment and its i'm,
mediate vicinity, Many of the notable
characters in the book are thinly veil
ed from those in real life. Certainly
the reader will admit none is over
- drawn. The climaXes are strikingly dra.
matte and there are scenes that would
make a play as thrilling as the Virgin
ian. All the higher and nobler quail
ties of women are depicted in Josie Nc.
MILAN, and even the poor newspaper
man-generally scorned by the aver.
age novelist-stands for lofty ideals
n a journalism that is elevating.
There is a villain in the work, most
certainly-at least two of them-deep-
eyed, dark and terrible. They stoop
to intrigue, conspiracy and murder. |
The arch-villain is Il polished fellow
whom Grandon considers as a rival
lol me loNe u the nerOlne, out WnOm
ne finally saves from being lynched by
q mob, after ne has committed NUT
der.
This novel is one that ought to be
in every library of the state. 1t is a
book that no person can read without
being improved thereby. 1t stands for
all that is good and pure and noble
in this life. Il presents Wyoming TO
the world in a different light than'most
people Of the east have been wont to
view it. The nero and the heroine are
the embodiment of ideal citizenship.
John Grandon stands for the building
up of the state along social and mate
rial lines. He supports the constituted
authorities and believes in his govern
ment and in the majesty of the law.
He is in opposition to mob rule and op-
poses lynching even at the risk of his
life.
The advice of The Republican is to
go to your n~ewsdealer and secure Il
copy of "Grandon Of Sierra" 1t is
worth while.

of the first floor have been wainscoat-
ed with mahogany board, cut in
beautiful design, and this improve

pearance of the house. The entrance
to the theatre has also been greatly
improved by replacing the six doors
