To great number of women the
house they live in Is almost on q par
with prison. 1t is prison-like In the
monotonous regularity Of daily duties;
prison-like in the absence of all pleasure
In what is done or Joy In the doing.
And the reason Is to be found In
womanly ill-health. Few women realize
how intimately the general health is re-
lated to the health of the delicate
wonanly organs. A woman may suffer
with heart "trouble," disorders Of kid

such women vdoctor" for years for

From trustworthy reports we learn
that during the past two or three
weeks about ten or twelve head of live
stock died of hydrophobla in Nodaway
township. The stock affected by this
dreadful disease did not all belong to
one man, but was scattered over the
township and it is said there are few
c sses just across the line in Page coun-
ty. The stock was, of course, bitten
by some wandering mad canine, of
which no one had any kno Wedge All
the recent cases of hydrophobia
among animals have not been in the
northwest part of the county. With
in the past week two cases were re-.
ported south of the city. Isaac Bishop
had calf ole of hydrophobis just q
day or two ago and another calf is re-
ported to have 1t now. We have no
desire to create mad dog scare, but
would urge that great vigilance be ex.
ercised and every necessary precsution
taken to prevent the spread of this
dreadful disease.-Bedford Times.
