How Mothers Fail.

at is TO the American mother that
we turn for a solution Of all moral
questions. Who is better fitted than a
good mother for discussing these vita
but delicate issues with her children
VINO can so well guide the little feet
into paths of purity and Righteousness
Who can better teach her sons rev.
erence for womanhood, to be chivalrons
to all women for the dear sake Of the
mother who bore themf Who can bet
ter mold her daughters into chaste wom-
anhood7 Yet many mothers shrink from
discussing with their children any mat
tiers pertaining to sex. They shroud the
topic in an air of mystery. They blush
and change the subject If any questions
are asked them. They appear as though
the renewal Of life were something TO be
ashamed of, and thar any reference 10
the matter were coarse and vulgar.
They excite morbid curiosity in the
child by evasion and decided avoidance
Of the subject. They put the childish
questioner off with pleasing little fietions
which include storks, the family doctor,
Santa Claus. These evasions work ad-
mirably for time, but the sequel is
disastrous, when the child awakens 10
the fact that deliberate lie has been
told him. Suburban Life-The Coun-

NORTH DAKOTA TAX COMMISSION
IN SESSION THIS AFTERNOON
AT GARDNER HoTEL-sEVERAL
AUDITORS HERE-MET FORMER
GOVERNOR BURKE. VI

The North Dakota tax commission
is in session in the city today at the
Gardner hotel. The meeting was con-
vened this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock,
although the time originally set was
for 10 o'clock this morning. Owing to
the number Of belated trains, it was
decided to defer the hour.
The purpose Of the meeting is to
meet the county auditors from this
section Of the state who were invited
to attend. It is impossible to meet all
the assessors at this time and it vas
felt by the members of the commits
sion that whatever is done in carrying
out the general policy of the commits
sion with reference to the assessment
would have to be done through the
county auditors.
The business of the afternoons
meeting will be the discussion of the
work OF the acts passed by the recent
session Of the legislature which go
into immediate effect.
The members of the commission are
Prof. L. E. Birdsell of Grand Forks,
Frank E. Packard of Bismarck and
George e. Wallace of Wahpeton. Mr..
Packard did not arrive until this aft
ernoon. The other members Of the
commission met former Governor
Burke this morning at the hotel where
an informal hat was held in the lob
by.
County Auditor Leech of Cass coun-
ty was present with a number of 9TH
er auditors from adjacent counties.

CHILDREN HATE
CASTOR OIL, Ugh!
DELICIOUS "sYRUP OF FIGS"
BEST FOR THEIR LITTLE
sToMAcHs, LIVER AND WASTE
cLoGGED BOWELS.

( Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the physic that mother
insisted on-castor oil, calomel,
cathartics. How you hated them, how
you fought against taking them.
With our children it's different. The
day of harsh physic is over. We don't
force the liver and 80 feet OF
bowels now; we coax them. We have
no dreaded after effects. Mothers who
don't realize what they do. The
children's revolt is well-founded. Their
little stomachs and tender bowels are
injured by them.
II your child is fretful, peevish, half
sick, stomach u breath feverish
and it's little system full Of cold; has
diarrhoea, sore throat, stomach-ache;
doesn't eat or rest well-remember-
look at the tongue, If coated, give a
teaspoonful of Syrup Of Figs, then
don't worry, because you surely will
have a well, smiling child in a few
hours.
Syrup of Figs being composed en-
tirely of luscious figs, SIENNA and aro-
matics simply cannot be harmful. IL
sweetens the stomach, makes the liver
active and thoroughly cleanses the
little ones waste clogged bowels. In a
few hours all sour bile, undigested
fermenting food and constipated waste
matter gently moves on and out of
the system without gripping or
nausea.
