HOLIDAY

The time to select holiday presents
is right at hand. Only a few more
days before Christmas remain. Get
presents before the STOCKS are depleted
and do not put II off till the night be
FORE when everything is hustle and all
the good articles have been selected
by the forehanded ones.
Never in the history of Laramie has
there been a better opportunity for the
people to get suitable presents, no mat
ter whether the taste runs to jewelry,
articles of clothing, household furnish
ings, toys for the children or what not.
Laramie merchants bought their stocks
before there was any idea Of n financial
furry and therefore did not stint in
getting the best and lots Of 1t. To be
sure, Laramie has not troubled itself
about the panic, but If ii had been
known that one was to trouble the ma
ton ut large perhaps II merchants
would not have given home people
lines as large and elegant as those
they are now privileged to select from.
II is noticeable, too, that prices are not
unreasonable, Our merchants have a.
way OF giving their customers the best
they can for the money, thus keeping
cash at home that would otherwise be
spent with the big department stores
Of the east.
The Republican invites scrutiny OF
its advertising columns. Never have
local merchants taken greater pride

PROVE THE CAUSE
How to Remedy Much Of the suffering
in Laramie.

How to Remedy MucF OF the Sunerlng
in Laramie.
The only way to cure the attacks
of indigestion that are so common in
Laramie is by using Mona stomach
tablets. They remove the cause Of in
digestion, strengthen the muscles of
the stomach and bowels, and restore
the whole digestive system to health
and strength.
When the stomach is weak there Is
indigestion, flatuience, dizziness. head
ache, sleeplessness and many other
disagreeable SYMPTOMS. The only rem,
edy that can be relied upon absolutely
to cure this. condition Is Mona, for
it removes the cause and restores
health so that all food is easily digese-
ed without pain or suffering.
A. H. Cordiner sells Mona under
an absolute guarantee to refund the
money unless it cures. Try q 50-cent
box and see how much real good 1t
does in Strengthening the digestion.

The position Of President Roosevelt
on the third term proposition gives him
greater strength with the American
people than II he had trlfled with their
confidence and indirectly sought re-
nomination. He will pass into history
a greater statesman than Washington
and after his retirement from the
White house he will not have lost his
power for good. His u~tterances will
have mighty weight and those things
that he may advocate will be taken up
by the people nj nodded into statute

ACT OF PURE
PATRIOTISM
RAWlINs ATTORNEY WILL GIVE
ANNUALLY HUNDRED DOL
LAR SCHOLARSHIP.
Must &c Graduate Of Classical Course
of Rawlins High School, Holding
Diploma and Must Become Student
at University Of WyomIne-An Elk
ample for Emulation.

Next year the Rawlins high school
graduate making the best average
grade in the high school work will be
the winner OF a prize well worth while,
in the way of substantial encourage
ment to gain a higher education, says
the Rawlins Republican.
Attorney L. p. Armstrong of this
city announces through a letter L
President Tisdel of the state university
at Laramie and Superintendent Farmer
of the Rawlins high school that he will
present a one hundred dollar scholar
ship fee. to the pupil making the best
showing in the Rawlins schools. This
showing will be based on the average
grade for the high school classical
course for the entire four years includ-
ing a rating on the thought and deliv-
cry of the commencement Grafton.
Scholarship to Be Used Here.
The conditions are that the pupil
must have taken the classical course,
received a diploma from the board of
education, and the scholarship be used
in Wyoming's own educational insti-
tuition.
There have been a few such expires
sions of loyalty to the state institution
from various citizens Of the state, but
this is the, first from Rawlins, and
coming from men of Mr.. Armstrong;
type has a double meaning. Few men
in Wyoming have had more schooling.
He is a high school graduate, a gradu-
ate from the Ohio state university, Il
school teacher for several years and
six years ago graduated from the law
department Of Columbia university in
leading institutions of learning in the
country.
BY his scholarship offer MIR. Arm.
strong endorses higher education and
substantially encourages some Raw
inns youth to get it; at the same time
he bears testimony that the university
of the state Of Wyoming is an excel.
lent school and one to which young
America" in this state may look for
thorough preparation to meet life's
battles.
In awarding the scholarship Mr..
Armstrong proposes to take, no hand,
and there will be no limitations as to
who may strive for 1.-THE one require,
ment being that the Rawlins high
school work must be done and the one
who does it best will receive the schol-
arship.
An Annual Offering.
In case the pupil who receives the
highest grades at graduation does not
wish to attend the university, then the
next highest in standing who will go
to the Wyoming Institution will be
awarded the scholarship.
Mr.. Armstrong proposes to make this
scholarship offer annually, and hereaf-
ter every year some Rawlins high
school graduate will be assisted 10

sity, as long as he remains in Wyo'

hole very quietly and waited very
short time till the mice got over
their scare and started back. The

on him and waited to catch the

The tenth grade showed debat-

o'clock in discussion on the fol-
lowing question. Resolved: That
the United States were wise in
adding the fifteenth amendment to
the constitution. Both sides
showed their ability and are to
be congratulated. Mrs. White,
Mrs. Davis and Mr.. Manion acted
as judges. While the judges
were preparing their decision, the
pupils were very glad to hear
encouraging words from Prof. Os-
borne and Mr.. CoItorpe- When
the judges returned to the room,
Mr.. Manion announced a unani-
NOUS vote in favor of the negative
side.
Among the visitors Tuesday
morning we're: Mcsdames Col
thorp, Steadman, Davis, Black,
Loveridge, White; Miss Leona
Davis and Messrs. Manion and
Colthorp.
Miss Maud Hanley was a well
come visitor tuesday afternoon.
The attendance of the entire
school is rapidly increasing. Few
new pupils have enrolled in the
various grades. Every grade is
crowded and the school board will
soon find themselves compelled to
provide more rooms and teachers.
The third grade has at present an
enrolment of sixty-five.
Owing to a conflict in dates the
lecture by Mr.. Camp last Saturday
night was held in the Congrega-
tional church. We were sorry to
see so few pupils present as it was

cotton | wanted and put 1T very

had stayed long while with Mr..
Rat we started back and went up
first and had just got to the top of
the hole when a great thing caught
me and almost squeezed the life out
of me- Miss Fliptail came up in a
hurry and when she saw the cat
she ran and the cat let loose of me
and tried to catch her and we
both got away. Now, | don't want
