This unfortunate state of affairs might have
been avoided had the mother, during the
period of expectant motherhood, taken the
right care of the delicate organs that make
maternity possible. A woman should al
ways keep these important organs we'll and
strong. Her own health and that of her
child depend upon it.
The best medicine for prospective moth
ers is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t
makes healthy and strong the organs that
bear the burdens of maternity. 1t cures all
disease and weakness. 1t makes comfort
able the period preceding motherhood and
renders the advent of baby easy and nearly
painless. 1t insures healthy child. The
pains and suffering that women endure, as
a result of weakness Of the distinctly wo-
manly organism vanish under its use. All
good druggists sell it. There is nothing
else just as good"

Wisconsin statesmen at Washington
are circulating quantities of public
documents in this community in the
form Of speeches delivered in the
house of congress from three to five
years ago. Just why they are thus
burdening the mails is not an easy
question to answer. Possibly they are
under the impression that we, their
constituents, are not up to date by sew
eral years. Probably nine men out of
ten who receive these back number
speeches glance at the date and throw
them CONTEMPORARY aside. We do
not care to thresh the political ground
over again, and besides are altogether
too busy to read ancient history.

Last week rumors Of lawsuits were

accompanied by threats of personal

arise to inquire which is the funeral?
and whose is the corpse? 1t happened
thus: Mr.. Newbury placed an express
package in his mail wagon at Camp
Lake intending to take it to Wilmot.
The package was consigned to Mr..
Lampe. Mr.. Lampe, who happened to
be at Camp Lake, spied the bundle
and inspired by personal luminosity TO
Mr.. NeWbury, took it from the wagon
and gave it into the hands of another
for transference to Wilmot. Mr.. New
bury detecting the loss, announced that
the package had been stolen, and
inspired by personal animosity to Mr.
Lampe, wended his way to the house
where that gentleman was at work
hanging paper. In thrilling tones and
tragic gestures Mr.. Newbury inquired
of Mr.. Lampe the wherefore of the
thusness. With accents of touching
pathos Mr.. Lampe informed Mr.. New
bury that the whence of the whichness
was beyond the limits of Mr.. Newbury's
business. The rest of the entertain
ment was in pantomime and Mr..
Lampe's throat since that time has
required the most solicitous care.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Feb 2 -Hostile
railroad legislation in nearly all of the
western granger states during the
present sessions of the legislatures is
almost certain. Much work is being
done among the legislators, not only
to bring about the adoption of law
fixing the minimum passenger fare at
two cents a mile, but also to secure a
material. reduction in the rates for the
transportation of grain. In the Missouri,
Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas Iegisla-

are already engaged in giving hearings
to the various parties interested. Sew
eral bills to regulate passenger and
