That's the personal question a woman
asks herself when she reads of the cures
of womanly diseases by the use OF. DR..
Plcrce's Favorite Prescription.
Why shouldn't it cure her?
Is it a complicated case? Thousands
of such cases have been cured by Fa-
vorite Prescription" Is it a condition
which local doctors have declared In
durable? Among the hundreds OF thou
sands of sick women cured by the use of
Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescription there
are great many who were pronounced
incurable by local doctors. Wonders
have been worked by "Favorite Pre-
scription" in the cure of irregularity,
weakening drains, inflammation, ulcera-
ton and female weakness. 1t always
helps. 1t almost always cures.
vThree years ago" writes Mrs. John Graham,
of 2oI8 Plumb Street, (Frankford) Philadelphia,

A Great Falls, Montana special of

and cattle loss in the history of Mont
ana, the damage of which will foot up
as high as So, 900, 600, has been
caused by the terrible storm which
has been raging for the past three
DAYS. In some sections fully 80 per
cent of the sheep on the ranges
have perished. Three herders at
least have wandered away in the
binding storm and been frozen to
death. An aged berder employed
by H. H. Wilson at Portage, was
lost Sunday. Two more in the
Shelby junction country, employed
nv the Floweree Cattle company are
missing, and there is no hope that
they can be found alive. Herders
have abandoned their hocks on every
hand and fed for safety to the set
lements and ranches. Nothing like
the fury of this storm has ever been
witnessed in northern Montana. vi

Middle, Valley Accident.


While on his way to Cambridge
last Tuesday John McRoberts of
Middle Valley met with quite an ac-
cident When near the Big Weiser
bridge his team became frightened at
some rocks in the road snd lunged
forward, breaking one single tree and
jerking Mr.. McRoberts out over the
dash board. His head evidently
struck rock, as there was deep
cash cut down the center of his
forehead and along his nose. They
ran into slough near the bridge and
mired. Fortunately there were. wit
nesses to accident who rescued the
occupants-two ladies aud three
children The horses we're cut lose
from the hack and ran some distance
before being captured. Mr. Nc
Roberts we're brought to Cambridge
where Drs. Greene and Schmitz
dressed the wound, and be returned
home that evening.

BIG MINE TRANSFER

Mr. f. L. Holllngshesd is in

visit brings out some very important
negotiations said to be going on for
a we'll known Rapid river gold and

Gated number of years ago by H..

of wealthy people of Toledo, Ohio,

installments. The intention of the
company is to install large milling
plant if certain development work,
to be done at once, turns out as ex-
pected. This plant will likely go IN
before winter.
An interview with Mr.. Hollings-
head resulted in practically verid-
cation of the facts, though he was
disposed to avoid publicity, as the
deal was not fully closed in some re-
spects, but so nearly 50 as to leave no
room for doubt.
The Alliance is famous and VAL

will be q splendid addition 10 our
mining interests. The county line
runs between the mine and Mr..
Johnson's cabin, the cabin being In

A TRINITY OF evils.
Cured by Or. Kennedy's New Medicine After
Other Treatment Had Failed.

Mr.. Martin Montgomery, of Silvara,
Penn, formerly of Roxbury, n. Y, writing
to DIR. David Kennedy, of Kennedy Row,
said:
"Your NEW medicine, Cal-cura Solvent,
is immense 1t cured me of liver and kid
ney troubles, and rheumatism, after lot
of weary dosing with things that did no
good. 1t is record breaker and no mis-
take"
As in Mr.. Montgomery's case, rheuma-
tism is often, indeed almost always, COM
plicated with kidney and liver trouble. 1t
is because Cal-cura Solvent acts on the kid
neys and liver and at the same time eXpels
uric acid from the blood, that it is such a
reliable remedy for rheumatism and the at
tendant disorders. 1t cures by removing
tile cause, therefore, the cure is permanent,
safe and sure.
