Mrs. Shearer's case is a fair example
of the average cure effected by the use
of "Favorite Prescription" both in the
completeness and quickness of the cure.
OF course, in complicated and chronic
cases the cure may be slower but it is
none the less sure if the medicine is
faithfully used as directed. The records
show that ninety eight women in every
hundred who have given "Favorite Pre-
scription" a fair and faithful trial haN~
been perfectly and permanently cured.

WORKOUT feeling experienced by so
many women is not due as a rule to
the physical exhaustion of labor, but to
the draining away of the strength by
womanly diseases. Nervousness, head
ache. backache, and sleeplessnes are
but few of the common results of such
a diseased condition. Yet thousands of
women suffer from womanly diseases for
years and make little or no effort to
effect a cure. They treat womanly dis
ease as if it was purely local thing. and
only wake up TO the disastrous effect of
the disease upon the general health,
when there is an utter break down, fol-
lowed perhaps by years of painful ill

HOW TO BE CURED.
Any woman suffering from womanly
disease can almost surely be cured by
the use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ticn. This statement is based on the
testimony of many thousands of women
who have been cured of womanly dis
eases (often when aggravated by neglect
or wrong treatment, and generally of a
serious and painful nature), by the use
of "Favorite Prescription

Obituary-Hcnl.v II. Davis.

Copies of the Medford, (Ore. Mail
have been received here reporting at
length the funeral services held over
the remains of n. II. Davis. the hus-
band of Clara Moore Davis, whose
accidental death was reported in this
paper, from which the following is ex-
tracted:
"Henry II. Davis was born in
Ottawa county, Kansas, November %,
1876. He was married to Clara Moore
at Tucson, Ariz., April 2s, 1900. BY
his genial nature and friendly manner
he won the friendship of all with
whom he came in contact. He was in
fatuated with the game of base ball,
and though he never felt that it was
right he could not always withstand
the temptation to play on Sunday.
When he was on his death bed this
was on his mind, and he said of |
should live ! will never play ball
again on Sunday" The funeral SER
vices were conducted at the Baptist
church by the pastor, The floral tri.
butes of his friends were abundant
and beautiful. The floral designs 10y
the Fraternal brotherhood and the
Washington Life Insurance Company
OF which he was a member. Such was
the interest in Mr.. Davis and sym.
pathy for the heart stricken relatives
that there was not room in the com.
modious building for the people and
the funeral procession was the largest
ever seen in Medford. The ceremony
at the cemetery by the FraternaI
brotherhood was very impressive.

whiskers has also shortened by at
least go per cent within the past four
years, and the shortening process is
still going on. There is no telling
where it will all end If this thing con-
tinues.
And prosperity is very likely to
continue-at least for four years to
come. The good times in Kansas are
not altogether due to large crops Of
agricultural products. They have
been brought about by the restoration
of conditions throughout the country
which have brought commercial and
industrial activity, and which have
established conference.-the basis of
all prosperity. These conditions have
made an active market, enhanced
values, put money into circulation in
large volume, and created a spirit of
healthy activity in all parts of the
country.
Kansas farmers are prosperous, not
so much because theircrops are abund-
ant as because they have good and
profitable markets for their products.
1t would matter but little how abund
ant their crops might be if they
could not sell them at profit. 1t is
not very many years ago since the
professional calamity howler was
painting gloomy picture of the Kan
sas farmer sitting up nights to "read
the mortgage on his farm by the light
of his blazing corn fire" That was
when crops were abundant, but could
not be prolitably marketed.
The change that has come about has
come in large part through the adop-
ton of national politics which by
creating business activity aud con-
iidence also creates markets and en-
hance values. 1t is not to he wonder
ed at that the Kansas Populist, with
his tale Of woe, is approaching nearer
and nearer to extinction.

KANSAS PROSPERITY.

From Los Angeles Times.
The Atchinson (Kans. Globe de-
clares that "this is the marvellous age
of Northern Kansas" And then the
Globe wakes enthusiastic. not to say
eloquent, over the glories of the com
monwealth erstwhile familiarly known
as the "Grasshopper state. DIT says
that "the farmers are raising more
wheat every year, more scorn Ievery
year, more alfalfa every year, fatten-
ing more hogs and cattle every year,
the price Of land is increasing every
year, and the farmers regetting better
prices for everything all the time
They are getting more for eggs and
butter than ever before; the price Of
land is rapidly increasing. Thous-
auds upon thousands are being sold to
the farmers every year. Farmers are
getting rich. All values are on the
increase, and the banks are full of
money. The most shiftless are living
well and the industrious getting rich.
No such plenty was ever known be-
fore, and it seems like a healthy con-
diton."
Indeed it does! And all this in a
state which, only a few short years
ago, was bleeding at every pore. 1t
seems incredible, The transforms
tion is simply marvellous. There is
one very noticeable fact, mo rever, in
connection with the present condition
of Kansas (which no longer bleeds
as compared with its condition five or
six years ago, when all was CORY.

Newt Ard Wins.

Elsmore Enterprise:-Th supreme
court of the state on last Saturday
affirmed the decussion of Judge Still

he claimed in section two under the
statute of limitation. This case is
one of more than passing interest to
the people of Allen county and a short
review will not be amiss: Years ago
n. /. Ard settled on what everybody
supposed was government land and
made his selections as settlers did in
those days, taking the old homestead
which he now occupies as part of his
claim. AS the years passed the rail
roads were granted a large amount of
land in Allen county and generally
claimed it about where they wanted to
and as much as they pleased, and
among the others claimed Mr.. Ard 5
homestead. For years, however, Mr.,

land involved in this decision, but at

was not satisfied with the decision of
Judge Stillwell and carried the case
to the court of appeals, it laid there
until that court died and passed into
the hands of the supreme court, where
as stated above the contention of Mr..
Ard was made good. Everybody in

70 FIGHT THE CANKER WORM
1t is Easy to be Rid of the Pest If
You go About it Right andat
the Right Time.

In many parts of the State the can
ker worms have stripped, not only
fruit trees but shade trees of their
foliage, and have been as much of a
pest as the maple worms were few
years ago. Professor Hunter pub
fishes letter advising the manner in
which such raids may be averted in
the future, and the information ought
to be generally acted upon. The sub
stance of Prof. Hunters letter is as
follows:
Briefly, the life history of the moth

ent of the worm is wingless moth.
about two.tenths of an inch in length
with a peculiar spider-like appear
ance. Early in the spring she crawls
up the trunks of the trees and deposits
her eggs on the branches. The eggs
hatch out just as the trees are begin
ming to bud and the young caterpillars
or canker worms at once feed voraci-
oUsly on the leaves until about the
middle of May, when, having reached
their full growth, they leave the trees
and crawl into the ground to pupate.
Turning into chrysalids, they spend
the rest of the summer ald succeed
ing winter in this condition under
ground, emerging from their cocoons
in the early spring-the male or wing
ed moth to fly about and the wingless
female to crawl up tree trunks and lay
eggs.
Here is where man can step in and
prevent the female moth from climb
ing the tree to deposit the eggs which
hatch out the trouble. a narrow
band Of canvas tied tightly about the
trunk of the tree on the first mild days
of the spring and spread with a coat
Of some sticky substance -molasses,
pine tar or printers ink--will present
an impossible barrier to the passage
Of the wingless female. The band
should be kept in position and the APP
plications of sticky substance renewed
until the leaves have begun to bud
out. Owing to the wingless condition
of the female the pest spreads slowly.
Once it is put under control in one
locality, it is not likely to give trouble
there for years. The chances for its
importation from some other place
are not worth consideration.

SCHOOLS TURNED OVER TO THE
WOMEN

In the Allen County Normal Insti-
tute now in session but five men are
enrolled as students.
This probably does not mean that
only five men will be engaged in teach
ing in this county next year, but it
does mean that the district schools of
the county are practically turned over
to the women.
The reason is obvious. 1t is simply
due to the fact that the great industries
now operating in Allen county offer
opportunities TO able bodied young
men to earn a great deal more money
than they can earn in the school room,
and they are taking advantage of it.
There is little inducement for man
TO teach school six months in the year
at $40 month when he can go into II
smelter and earn from sixty to eighty
dollars a month for twelve months.
The question that this condition sug-
gests is whether the school districts
are wise in keeping salaries at such
pOluJ as 10 prdctlcdlly eliminate men
teachers. In other words. can women
keep the schools up to the standard
they would be held to by men?
Upon this question, we make great
haste to say, the REGISTER expresses
no opinion whatever. II merely sug-
gests it as topic of debate at the an
