heartedness which from doing good midst all the

Well may contemplate the lessons the hour while
we sing:
Joy to the world the Lord is come;

Let every heart prepare him room,
And heaven and nature sing.

And makes the nations prove

TO INCREASE FILING FEES

THE SUGGESTION OF STATE Engineer Carpenter

The idea is not make the unreasonable but to
either make it certain definite each cubic foot

AT the present time it costs two dollars file upon a

whether the applicant claims foot three hundred
feet of water and is well known that every app
cant claims several times much use and
often than the entire flow of the stream 1t is be-
lieved that the plan suggested by Professor Carpenter
would limit these excessive filings besides furnishing the
fund very needed in the prosecution of
the irrigation work.
The suggestion is made the theory that all un.

THE COMING MEETING of the stockgrowers of the
country will undoubtedly of great interest and of
much benefit to all concerned especially those who
attend from the Western slope 1t is the intention of the
associations of this section to be well represented the
gathering in order that every member may be able to
get points of value that will aid him in his calling
Judging from present indications the Western slope will
have upwards of 100 members present at the convention
and if every portion of the country takes the interest
there will be of the biggest conventions in the history

The first lesson that the young girl has
of womanhood is usually painful one.
She learns to know what headache means,
and backache, and sometimes is sadly
borne down by this new experience of life.
All the pain and misery which young
girls commonly experience at such time
may, in almost every instance, be entirely
prevented or cured by the use of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t estab-
fishes regularity 1t tones UP the general
health, and cures headache, backache,
nervousness and other consequences of
womanly weakness or disease.
The anxious mother of the family often
times carries the whole burden of RESPONSE
bility so far the home medication of
common ailments of the girls or boys are
concer'ed. The cost of the doctors visits
is very often much too great. At such
times the mother is invited to write to DR..
r. v. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, for medical
advice, which is given free. Correspond
ence is held strictly confidential.
Backed up by over a third of century
of .markable and uniform cures, record
such as no other remedy for the diseases
and weaknesses peculiar to women ever
attained, the proprietors and makers of DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel
fully warranted in offering to pay $500 in
legal money of the United States for any
case of I,eucorrhea, Female Weakness, Pro-
lapsus, or Failing of Womb, which they
cannot cure. All the Worlds Dispensary
Medical Association, Proprietors, of Buff
falo, N. Y, ask is a fair and reasonable
trial of their means of cure.
rYour wonderful medicine, 'Favorite Prescrip-
tion,' has helped me greatly i'll time of suffer
ing,p writes Mrs. Minta Wright, of Edwards,
Ind. uLast winter I was unable to do my work,
was to be confined in February, and lady in
Illinois wrote and told me about your medicine.
l used three bottles of Favorite Prescription
and will say had the easiest and quickest con-
finement l ever had. Had three children be-
fore, and would suffer from twenty four to thirty
six hours before birth, but this time only two
hours. Have fine baby girl and she is the
most healthy one of all. l am still using tha
