Women who bear children and re-
main healthy are those who prepare
their systems in advance of baby's
coming. Unless the mother aids
nature in its prenatal work the crisis
finds her system unequal to the de-
nands made upon it, and she is often
left with weakened health or chronic
ailments. No remedy is so truly
help to nature as Mothers Friend,
and no expectant mother should fail
to use it. 1t relieves the pain and
discomfort caused by the strain on
the ligaments, makes plant and elias
tic those fbres and muscles which
nature IS expanding, prevents numb
ness of limbs, and soothes the inda,u-

being thus prepared by Mothers
Friend dispels the fear that the crisis
may not be safely met. Mothers
Friend assures a speedy and conpIete
recovery for the mother, and she is

New Orleans.-Fo1lowing unquali-

by the railroads against the South in
the matter of stopover privileges, the
board of directors of the New Orleans
Progressive Union issued call Sat
urday to Southern commercial and
civic bodies and railroad companies to
participate in a conference. to be held
in New Orleans in August this year
to be known as the Southern States
Transportation Conference. New Or

today enjoys the benefits of stopover

resolutions declare she should take
the initiative and call together the
representatives of Southern States,
cities, commercial and civic bodies
and transportation companies, ''to
the end that travel may be diverted
to the Southern States and the entire
South enjoy similar privileges.

up the Canadian reciprocity bill with

throughout the week After the farm

A handful of faithful members OF
the house witnessed the termination
late Saturday of a memorial Bile debate
on the tariff free list bill, which prob
ably will be voted upon this week
The debate was noteworthy because
of the number of speeches and on ac-
count of the scant membership of the
house that followed them. From the
opening of the general discussion of
the bill there was no restriction of
the speaking on the measure. Few Of
the speeches, however, received much
attention.
Universal woman's suffrage was ad
vocated in congress in joint resolu-
ton by Representative Mondell Of
Wyoming Monday.
Representative Warburton of Wash
ington, newly elected member of
the house of representatives an.
nounced his intention of supporting
the democratic free list bill in
speech in the house Saturday.
While many reports from Mexico
that reach the White House are far
from encouraging, President Taft and
his cabinet are still hoping for peace.
The cabinet discussed the Mexican
situation at length Friday and it was
determined that this government
shall stand pat" for the present. No
more troops are to be ordered to Tex
as, and, for a time at least, no war
vessels are to be sent to Mexican
waters.
Senator Borah sought vainly to
have the house joint resolution pro-
yiding for the election of senators by
popular vote made the unfinished
business of the senate. He finally
yielded to a request of Senator Clark
of Wyoming for time to prepare re-
port on the resolution and permitted
the matter to go over.

good. Practically no rain was. re-
ported in the belt, and temperatures
were but slightly below the normal,
except in a. few localities. Reports
OF foul fields and of ground too wet
to work or plant checked short sell
ing. After the call prices fell to a
level 3@6 points down, but at the end
of the first half hour the list stood
up to 2 down compared with Fri
days close. The weather forecast,
predicting fair weather for the belt
generally, held the market down
around the middle of the morning.
but later it strengthened on general
buying. Orders came from outsiders,
who appeared to be impressed with
reports from the belt that much more
cotton would have to be replanted
than had been expected, and that less
cotton was planted up to the time
rains interferred with farm work than
had been estimated by the majority
OF crop experts. The market had
rising tendency, when the old crops
were 7@14 points over Fridays close
and the new 6@7 over.

to the farmers at less than cost, but
the demand has been so heavy un-

every few months under the present
plan, and this has proved expensive.
Secretary Flower has returned from
North Louisiana, where he found hog
cholera has broken out in several
places. 1t seems to be almost cpl
