0ye.Bwdened Women.

Many a man sees his wife bend and
tug at burdens that strain the back and
the heart alike, without any idea of the
outrage. Children follow in too quick
succession to allow the n%ther time to
recuperate. The womanly organs become
displaced, there are debilitating, disagree
able drains, with the added pain of in
famed or liberated parts. In this condi-
tlon the woman bravely tries to carry hor
household load, afraid to take the rest
she needs lest q meal will be late. No
wonder she Is pale, weak, wretehed, surly
Of temper and snappish of tongue. She
would be false to nature II she were any
thing else. No persons need help so much
as the class Of whom this woman is the
type. And for such women no help is so
sure, so wonderful, as that given by DR..
Plerce's Favorite Prescription. 1t re-
stores all the womanly organs to perfect
health. Itestablishes regularity in their

All Americans, young or old, ought
to know that February 22nd was
Washington birthday. And every
school boy knows the story of George
Washington, his hatchet and the
cherry tree. He is one man at least
who has the enviable reputationof hav-
ing never told a falsehood. The per-
sonal life and great deeds of this
famous man are well known to the
greater majority OF American citizens.
But, however, it may be news to some
to learn that the father of bis contry
wore artificial teeth. Yes, such was
the case, and they were among the
great commanders most priced earthly
possessions. He realized the import
ance of having satisfactory mastica-
ters no doubt from the standpoint of
health, one of the most important
things pertaining to our residence on
this earth. You may wish to emulate
this great man in this respect, and
have an artificial set of teeth that you
will also prize highly, after they
are once in your possession. Or you
may wish to conform more to the
now prevailing and up to date ideas
of having decayed or otherwise affect
ed natural teeth filled, crowned, or
otherwise operated on SO they can be
permanently retained, thereby being
needed benefit and source of salts

While in the throes of the worst
storm in years, and the mercury
clustering in lump about the zero

proprietor of the summer resort
known as Hidaway Springs, has de-

an old fashioned barbacue. Thus do

The Iowa Legislature has been ac-
cused of paying too much attention to
politics and too little to legislation.
Perhaps the accusation is in a meas

tional politics has initiated against
