The Door Of Life.

The fear of pain and the dangers of
parturition fill many "a woman's breast
with dismay. There is no reason why
childbirth should be fraught with dam
ger and distress. 1t is perfectly nat
ural function and should be performed
in natural way without undue suffer-
ing. Nine out of ten women are trOu-
bled more or less by weakness and dis
eases peculiar to their sex. 1t is so be-
cause they do not take proper care Of
themselve-because they neglect little
ills and little precautions. A woman in
perfect hearty health goes through her
time OF trial with comparative ease. The
thing to do, then, is to make all expec-
tant mothers healthy--to strengthen
them generally and locally. The medi-
cine and tonic to do it with is DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t is a powerful
invigOrant and nervine. 1t sOothes and
strengthens the nerves and acts directly
on the feminine organism in a way
which fits it for the proper and regular
performance of all its functions at all
times. Taken during CESSATION it robs
childhood of its dangers to both mother
and child by preparing the system for
delivery, thereby shortening labor, less
ening pain and abbreviating the period
of confinement

Notice to Taxpayers.

The Woods delinquent tax bill
which has become a law. provides
that the county treasurer shall i'm
mediately file with the clerk of the
court a complete list Of all taxes on
real estate which have become de-
linquent for the year 1895, or any
prior year or years, and which taxes
have not been satisfied by payment,
or redemption. or sale Of real estate
to actual purchasers. Such list shall
include such taxes upon any real es-
tate which may at any tax sale have
been struck off to. or declared to be-
come forfeited to the state or county,
whether such sale or forfeiture was
valid or invalid, and that Judgment
shall he entered against the property
and the owners. and the property
sold at sheriff's sale to satisfy the
judgments.
The Jay also provides that such de-
linquent taxes may De paid before
the list is filed with the clerk of the
court by the pay ment of the original
tax and interest at the rate Of 7 per
cent, from the time such tax became
delinquent. After tho list is filed

The Northern Pacific tax COM
mission, by act of the legislature,
which met in Bismarck this week,
has adjourned without taking any
definite action. The object Of the
commission in getting representa-
tives from this and other counties
where the Northern Pacific owes
back taxes, was to get an express
sion and know better what would
be satisfactory in the settlement
of these arrears. The general
opinion, says the Bismarck Trib-
une, was that the road should pay
an amount about equal to the
original tax, without penalty OF
interest. An effort to compro-
mise has been made in Burleigh,
the basis of settlement proposed
by the county being that the road
pay the delinquent taxes for the
last two years, with penalty and
interest in full, and that all delin|
quencies for prior years be figured
up with penalty and interest and
half the total amount be accepted
in full payment. The matter,
however, is entirely at the discre.
tion Of the commission.

The action of the governor on
the bills presented to him has
been prompt and has given gen.
eral satisfaction throughout the
state, having been careful, judi
cious and with a view to the best
interests of the state. The total
number of bills passed by the as
sembly was 161, of which 1872 have
become laws. Nineteen of the
bills passed were vetoed and ten
of them passed over the veto,
being the appropriation bills pass
ed on the last day of the session.
A review of the laws shows them
to be wise, and as rounded out by
the governor, for the best interest
of the state. They cover a num-
Der of subjects upon which legis.
lation was ineffective or incom.
plete, and it is believed that q
careful study of the measures that
have become laws will convince
everyone that the work of the fifth
legislative assembly was wei
done-Bismarck Tribune.

A number nj StOckmen with whom
the writer II - talked "n the snhjrc!
report range cattle i'll hh Shape To
g. through amy more bad weather.
Up to the present time tho loss has
not been heavy, hut many carcasses
may lie found in the draws and
gulches OH the ranges on the Moreau
and Little Missouri. The ice and
snow is from ten inches to two feet
deep and frozen over the top almost
hard enough to bear up stock The
hair is said to be worn off the legs of
most of the cattle caused by breaking
through this crust. 1t is certain
that the loss will be considerable UNI
der any circumstances, and especial
ly the cold spring rains and green,
watery grass will hc bard OH stock.
Horses will suffer. to SO;;e extent but
not so much rs CATTLE Belle Fourche
Times.
Ed. S. Foley says the early reports
have been exaggerated and that the
loss among steers will not be heavy,
although cows have suffered and
many of them have persisted. In the
Bad Lands the range cattle have
been protected and the SHOW has not
been as heavy as in other parts of
the state and as u consequence cattle
are in better shape there. Altogeth-
or, while some Of the stockmen will
find many dead among the missing,
the loss will not approach that of the
winter Of 1867.
Pierre Wibaux: Ga my range the
grass crop was excellent last fall anil
cattle never entered the winter in
better condition. November WAS /;
bad month, but December and most
of January were all one could desire;
in fact, Decembe Der was the best month
on record for II great many years. l
personally rode over the range the
beginning of January; there were no
losses whatever and never did [ see
cattle in better shape ut that time OF
the year. February was Il hard month
on cattle, but the amount Of snow on
my range or farther west never ex-
ceeded ten inches on the level. l was
in Montana the end of February. A
few old COWS had died that were ex-
pected to die anyway. l saw cattle
all through the Bad Lands: they were
strong and doing we'll. l went to
Miles City and rs far us Helena, and
the general impression was that the
winter so far had been most favorable
for stock. l am aware that from
the FIRST to the fifteenth of March the
weather was unusually cold for that
time of the year. Cattle were get
ting weaker every Ity. aal this caus-
ed some anxiety among cattlemen.
On the 18th, however. we had a
change for the better, and since then
snow has been melting every day.
