ST. PATRiCk'S DAY.
Inv G. 2 E.l

by G. P. F.)
Kind friends, give attention
Fol a little while,
Till | praise the little shamrock
And dear old Erin's isle.
The Irish boys will all parade
And bands will sweetly play;
They viii all wear the shamrock
On Saint Patrick's day.
The Scotchman loves the thistle,
The Englishman the rose,
The Welchman loves the leek
And the land where it grows.
These are the national emblems
What wonder, then, l say,
Old Ireland loves the shamrock
On Saint Patrick's day.
The little t~hree-leafed shamrock
Is an emblem of our Isle
And the angels from their thrones
For ever on it smile.
1t was discovered by Saint Patrick
While kneeling down to pray;
So We'll all wear the shamrock
On Saint Patrick's day.
When you go to dear old Ireland,
Pay a visit to Athione;
Then go to Blarney castle
And kiss the Barney stone.
The boys and girls in every town
From Dublin to Galway
VIII all wear the shamrock
On Saint Patrick's day.
Then go to old Cork City
And hear the Shandon bells,
And to ancient Limerick
To see the pretty girls.
For they are the prettiesr set Of girls
So everyone does say,
And they will all wear the shamrock
On Saint Patrick's day.
May the sweet dew of Heaven
Come down from above,
Around the little shamrock
The emblem of love.
While the little feathered songsters
Come singing their sweet lay,
Wen all wear the shamrock
On Saint Patrick's day.

WORK WEhKENS THE
KIDNEYS
Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Great
Service for People Who Work
In Laramie.

Most Laramie people work every
day in some strained, unnatural posi-
tion-bending constantly over a desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars-do-
ing laborious housework; lifting reach
ing or pulling, or trying the back in a
hundred and one other ways. All these
strains tend to wear weaken and in
jure the kidneys until they fall behind
in their work of altering the poisons
from the blood. Doan's Kidney Pills
cure sick kidneys, put new strength IL
bad backs. Laramie cures prove It,
Mrs. Chris Larson, 211 south First
street, laramie, Wyo., says: Mr.. Lar
son followed railroading for twenty
years and | attribute the cause of his
backache and kidney trouble to the
constant Earring and jolting which he
received while riding. After leaving
the road he vas still subject to the
attacks and not until using Doan's Kid
ney Pills did he find a medicine that
afforded him genuine and positive re-
lief. I can also speak from my own
experience with this remedy that it ia
one which can be depended upon to re

STATE PRESS
You Have a Guess

You Have a Guess
The attack made on apportionment
of members of the legislature among
the counties opens up a fine field of
possibilities. Senators Sullivan of Ma.
trona and Williams of Converse are
seeking by mandamus proceedings i'
the state supreme court to set aside
the apportionment made by the last
Legislature n all previous ones, and
have the next election called on the
basis fixed when the constitution was
adopted. 1t Is not our intention to try
the case in advance of the court, but
we can't help trying to figure the thing
out. We of Fremont county are not
greatly affected by the result, so We
can afford to just look on at the show.
If the apportionment Is unconstitu'
tional are not the legislatures elected
under 1t also unconstitutional and all
their acts void? II the governor calls
he call the last one, which is alleged
to be an Illegal body, or will he call
the one elected under the original ap
portionment, which is admitted to be
legal? , Will the hold-over senators
still hold or will they be side-trackei
in case the contention is upheld? vii
Weston, Natrona and Big Horn cou
ties, which have been organized since
the original apportionment was made
be left without representation? There
may be a few other questions involve
in the matter, but these are enough u
set the average man thinking for a
while.
