The highest point of woman, S hap
piness is reached only through moth
erhood, in the c1asping of her child
within her arms. Yet the mother-to-
be is often fearful of natures ordeal
and shrinks from the suffering incl
dent to its contamination. But for
natures ills and discomforts nature
provides remedies, and in Mothers
Friend is to be found medicine of
great value to every expectant mother.
1t is an oily emulsion for external
application, composed of ingredients
which act with beneficial and sooth-
ing effect on those portions of the
system involved. It is intended to
prepare the system for the crisis, and
thus relieve, in great part, the suffer
ing through which the mother usually
passes. The regular use of Mothers
Friend will repay any mother in the
comfort it affords before, and the help
Jul restoration to health and strength
1t brings about after baby comes.

land and make homes there.
Just over the boundary line OF
Harvey county, Oregon, in what Is
known as Catlow valley, the Helm
development company, backed by
California capitalists and under the
general management of William A.
Marsh, is establishing another gil
gantic irrigation project.
Mr. Marsh, who arrived from Cat
low valley recently, stated that the
Helm company has had $4,000
acres of land Withdrawn under the
Carey act and is asking for Ia, 900
more in the same valley. This
company has already two extensive
projects well under way with plen-
ty of water to irrigate this vast
acreage of land This is one OF
the largest irrigation projects in
Harvey county, Oregon.
The road from Winnemucca is
the nearest and most direct route
from the railroad to this great agri-
cultural section and this place is
the principal distributing point for
the people there.
In speaking of the great projects
and of that section in general, Mr.
Marsh says that the Catlow valley
is sixty miles in length and con.
tains about 100000 acres of as
fine land as can be found in the
state Of Oregon, with plenty of wa
ter, void of alkali and other i'm
pCrities, making it a very healthfu
place to live in.
There is an Industrious popula
ton there at the present time who
are greatly hampered by the lacl
of railroad facilities, it being nee
essary for all their supplies to b,
hauled in by teams. A railroad
built through that section would
make it one of the most prosper
Gus communities in the west.

valley to the Quinn River crossing
thence on to Winnemucca, strict

The great Rothschild family, al
though founded only about a hun
dred years ago, is worth two billion
dollars. This is four times the
probable wealth of all the Rookie
fellers, and more than six times
greater than the united Astor pos
sessions. At per cent, the yearly
income of the present Rothschild
fortune would be eighty million
dollars, or more than the whole
capital of the original Vanderbilt
None of the other great financial
houses of Europe approaches the
Rothschllds in prestige or possess

one-fourth that of the Rothschild
fortune.
The great South African money
kings put together can not muster
half as much cash as the Roth
schilds. The present head of the
family is Lord Rothschild, of Lon
don, member of the house of
lords. For a long time no Jew
could enter parliament. In 1S47,
Rothschild was elected, but the
prescribed oath contained these
words: "On the true faith of a
