part Of the country.
A trading post, bearing an old In
dian name, Cushnoc, was in exist

Gin Of Augusta today stands. Cush-
noe vas later changed to Fort West
ern. Following the trading post
days ID became a struggling but de-
termined village in the vast wilder
pess and took the name of Halo
well. In 1897 it was changed in
name again, this time to Harrington.
Four months after, that same year,
tho place again changed in name.
This time and last time, it was
named Augusta. In 1S49 Augusta
became city.
Fort Western was built on the site
Of IN Indian trading station. The
Plymouth Company, so-called. who
built the Fort, was composed of heirs

i few years, declined and became

STOP THAT
Many Rawlins Folks have Found
the Way.

Is a dull, nerve racking backache
wearing you out? Do you feel older
and slower than you should? Are
you tired, weak and nervous; find 1t
impossible to- be happy, or enjoy the
good times around you? Then there's
something wrong and likely it's your
kidneys. Why not get at the cause?
Use Doan's Pills-a stimulant dur
etic to the kidneys. Your neighbors
recommend Doan's. Read what this
Rawlins resident says:
G. A. Loberts, carpenter, 18th St.
says: whenever I stopped the dull
aches in my back became sharp pains
and it was a task to straighten again.
My back was lame and if I attempt
ed to lift anything, it gave out en-
tirely. The first box Of Doan's Pills
from the Wyoming Drug Co., eased
the backache considerably. One more
box of Doan's cured me completely"
Price soc at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy

Loberts had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

The Ladies Aid Society OF the
Grantwood Lutheran Church honored
Mrs. Matilda Anderson with a party
on November "a, as she has been
with the congregation ever since it's
founding and is, today, the only one
of the original group still with the
church.
She has served faithfully these
many years and her very life reveals
Christian heart
The pastor addressed the Ladies
Aid and spoke of Mrs. Anderson's
faithfulness. He remarked that, as a
pastor, the hardest task is to preach
a funeral sermon, as he prefers to
speak about the deeds and faithful
ness of the ones who are living.
Mrs. Anderson has missed very few
services in twenty-five years and her
love for Gods word is great, and as
the pastor said, "You love Gods word
and now when, in the eventide of
life, you grow weaker and your feet
cannot carry you to the house of
God, may God grant you eyesight to
read this Bible that the Ladies pre-
sent to you"
