»7oan2 man who practised medic?»*
in a rural district became famous and
was called in consultation in many
towns and cities becaitee of his suc
cess in the treatment of disease. This
was Dr. Pierca who afterward moved
to Buffalo, N. Y. He made up his
mind to place some of his medicines
before the public, and he put up
what he called his "Favorite Pre
scription," and placed it with the
draggista in every state in the Union.
For fifty years Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription has sold more largely
throughout the United States than
any ether medicine of like character.
It's the testimony of thousands ui
women that it has benefited or er - -
tirely eradicated such distressing ail
ments as women are prone to. It is
now sold by druggists in tablet form
as well as liquid.
A storia, O reqox .—"I saw Doctor
Pierce's advertisement and as I had
tried so many things for woman's
trouble without getting any help, I
decided to try Dr. Pierce's Favorise
Prescription, and I did so with good
results. I think it is just great."-»

Much of Time of Regional Meeting League of Wo
men Voters Devoted to This Vital Question;
Constitution and By Laws of State and County
Organizations Are Determined—Deny Affilia
tion With Party Organizations.
Developing the ideas promoted by the
League of Women Voters and empha
sizing the objects for which it proposes
to work, Monday's program of the Fifth
region convention of that organization
made the major subject of its considera
tion children and their welfare, while
the afternoon third of the day's activi
ties was almost wholly devoted to dis
cussions of work for the betterment of
children. With the development of the
league ideas there had also been a
steady growth of interest, and the at
tendance of Monday was three or four
times the size of the opening sessions
and exceeded the 150 mark easily. There
were more women in the City from out
side points, and the local women, ap
parently having come to a fuller appre
ciation ' of the opportunity for hearing
such excellent, discussions, were out in
much larger numbers. The culminating
feature of Monday's program was the
banquet in Hotel Rainbow in the eve
ning. , ...
The program of Monday opened with
the invocation by the Rev. Fr. M. T.
O'Brien, chancellor o S the Catholic
diocese of Great Falls, after which the
convention took up the formation of
a constitution and by-laws tor the state
organizations and one that could be
adapted to the county units, and for
that work, Mrs. Kdwin L. Norris, chair
man of the convention, called Mrs. W. C.
Perkins, of Lewistown, to the chair.
Montana State Organization.
It was decided that the organization
for the state of Montana shall be called
the Montana »..eague of Women Voters
and that its chief aim und purpose will
be to promote loyalty and true Amer
ican citizenship and those things which
will especially be helpful for bringing
better conditions for the women and the
children of the state. It was decreed that
there should be no favors shown to anj
political party but that the members
should he free individually to select what
ever partv with which she preferred to
cast her ballot, that being viewed as a
personal prerogative of the members and
not the concern of the league.
Officers of the League.
On the question of officers of the
league it was determined that the state
organization shail have a chairman, a
vice-chairman at large, and six vice
chairmen who shall be selected accoi 'ling
to districts or groups in the state; a
secretary und a treasurer and these, with
three others elected by the elleetivo offic
ers. shall constitute the executive com
mittee. .
The county organizations will t>e pat
terned after the state body with the ex
ception that there will be no vice chair
man at large and the number of vice
chairmen shall not be less than two and
may be as many more as the exigency of
the county may suggest wise.
In addition to completing the organi
zation of the staff league and providing
the plan for the county organization,
the morning session heard an address by
K. H. Cooney, editor of the Great 1' ails
Leader, and "was also favored by music
by Mrs. Leo M. Ford.
The afternoon program brought out
three strong addresses, one by a repre
sentative of the children's bureau of
the department of labor, one of the
Montana child welfare bureau and one
of the University of Wyoming. All
were given the closest attention and all
proved to have messages filled with in
formaton in their respective lines.
There have been some changes made
in the program of the longue of women
voters convention program for today,
Sirs. F. L. Norris announced Monday
evening at the banquet.
The constitution and by-laws will be
taken up again at. this morning.
Judge Sidney Sanner will speak at
10:30.
This afternoon at 2:40 Miss May
Trumper will give her address on "The
Perils of Illiteracy."
Fifteen Toasts
Evening Banquet
What women have achieved, what wo
men are achieving and what women will
achieve was eloquently and wittily ox
pressed in 15 toasts responded to by
Montana women and by the visitors from
other states at the banquet given Mon
day evening in the palm room at Hotel
Rainbow for the women who are guests
at the convention of the fifth region of
the League of AVomei, Voters now tak
ing place in Great K.ils
About one huwli< I women attended
the banquet. Mrs. Larry B. Mitchell was
toast mistress, and the idea <»f a flower
garden was carried out in the responses
that were given. Mrs. K. \V. .laniiesou,
dean of women -'t. Missoula, gave the
first response, 'Th- Fluvering Gate
way". Mrs. Jamieson s|K»ke enthusiastic
ally of what be 1 cfits the voting of wo
men educated through the league would
bring to the nation. She also was sure
that the women would investigate educa
tional measures and vote for those that
would make education possible for a
greater number of girls.
Mis. Stevenson of Bozeman told wit
tily of her experience in casting her
first vote in Montana 8.1 years ago,
when it was learned that any taxpayer
could vote. Her topic was "The Steady
Perennials," whom she termed the wage
earning women. She expressed the hope
that there would be a deeper sympathy
between th P women who were wage
earners and those who were not.
Mrs. James Paige of Minneapolis,
chairman of the Fifth region of the
National League of Women Voters,
spoke on "Sidelights From the Nation
al Republican t'onvention at Chicago,"
which she attended with other members
of the board of the league in an effort
to get. the platform of the League of
Women Voters in the Republican plat
form. < >ne of tlip most notable changes
in this convention from conventions of
previous years was the absence of the
fumes of alcohol among the delegates.
I >r. Valeria Parker, chairman of the
social hygiene committee and director of
the Connecticut state farm for women,
who arrived in the city Monday evening
from the biennial conventions of wom
en's federated ciubs. which is taking
place in Pes Moines, Iowa, spoke ou
"Sidelights From tile Biennial Conven
tion."
I>r. Grace Raymond Hebard of Wy
oming told in an amusing manner her
experience in go»ng with representatives
from states to persuade the governor
of Connecticut to sign the suffrage hill
for his state and thus make possible the
10th amendment to the constitution.
Miss Jeanette Bankin. who is a guest
in the city, appeared for the later part
of the program. Wheu asked to speak,
she said:
"I am glad to see the women of Mon
tana taking such :in interest in the
problem that women must solve."
Other speakers on the program were
Mrs. Stutzman from Moore; Mrs. A. M.
Crawford of Billings: Miss Mary Innes
of Billings; Miss Kdythe O'Leary of
Butte: Mrs. Stevenson of Bozeman;
Miss Aikins of Lewistown; Miss «ier
trude Watkins of Arkansas; Mrs. F. L.
(Joss of North Dakota, and the He v. Miss
Rhoda Jane Dickenson, of Glasgow.
Women Should Make
Use of the Ballot
That the women ha\e a fertile field
■ if opportunity to show their interest in
; the ballot by using it and they can give
the men an example that will be refresh
ing and invigorating to the state was the
lesson which E. II. Cooney. editor of the
(Jreat Falls Leader brought to the Lea
gue of Women Voters convention Mon
day, as a speaker on the morning pro
gram. Mr. Cooney pointed out several
facts which he urged the ladies to hold
j w r ell in mind. One was that political
! parties, the duty to vote rests upon
j ernment now in use n the Fnited States
i and that as long as there are political
parties, the duty to the vote rests upon
tiie members of the parties.
Registration, Mr. Cooney told the
women, was the first step in getting to
be an active elector and participating in
the elections to name officials and he
cautioned them to make their organiza
tion effective by getting the members to
register for voting. The second step he
told them was to vote ar the primaries.
His subject was. "How to Exercise the
Elective Franchise." He pointed out the
serious mistake of a voter failing to vote
and then complaining about the nomin
ees. He declared that the duty of select
ing candidates, which is preformed
through the function of the primary
election, is an individual one with every
one entitled to vote.
Dr. Hebard Talks on
"Americanization"
While the people won the war against
Germany, only the actual fighting has
been completed and the big problems
that come out of the war are practically
of the future, in the opinion of Dr.
Grace Baymond Hebard, professor of
political science at the Fniversity of
Wyoming, who was a speaker on Mon

Discovers magic ether com
pound which loosens a
corn so it lifts right out
Good news spreads rapidly and drug
gists here are kept busy dispensing
freezone, the ether discovery of a Cin
cinnati genius, which is said to loosen
any corn so it lifts out with the fingers.
Ask at any pharmacy for a quarter
ounce of freezone. which will cost very
little, but it is said to be sufficient to
rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn
or callus.
You apply just a few drops on the
tender, aching corn and instantly the
soreness is relieved and soon the corn
is so shriveled that it lifts out without
a particle of pain. It is a sticky sub
stance which dries when applied and
never inflames or even irritates the ad
joining tissue.
This discovery will prevent thousands
of deaths annually from lockjaw and
infection heretofore resulting from the
suicidal habit of cutting corns.
day at the convention of the League of
Women Voters in the Elks' temple. Dr.
Hebard was addressing the convention
on "Americanization."
It was the view of the speaker that
th e solution of the problems of eco
nomics and other subjects vital to the
welfare of the people will prove tasks
of giganjic proportions,- ami she ex
pressed the view that the war had em
phasized the need of women's help in
their solution. She cited the statement
of a military man during the war who,
in addressing the women on a certain
occasion, had told the women that the
men were willing enough to fight, tut
they could not win the fight unless they
had the help and support of the women
at home, and Dr. Hebard declared that
was just as true now as it was during
the period of actual fighting.
Dr. Hebard holds a unique honor. In
her state she gives free instruction to
persons wanting to become naturalized
citizens and the courts admit the ap
plicant on her certificate of fitness.
Laurie Jean Reid
on "Child Welfare"
Cultivate health rather than fight
disease and inculcate in the mind of the
child that health and the habits that
beget good health are achievements
worth while, was the message which
Mrs. Laurie Jean Reid of the Montana
Children's bureau brought to the conven
tion of the League of Women Voters
Monday when she spoke on "Child Wel
fare in Montana".
Mrs. Reid declared that in all study
and club work which women have done
there has ever been foremost the thought
of health of the individual and that the
welfare of children and women always :
received first attention from women's]
organizations. She dwelt upon the loss
of infant life in the nation and also of j
mothers in rearing children and of the :
wonderful opportunity that exists to j
help to lessen the dangers of motherhood
and to increase the possibilities of the
infant to grow to maturity.
The speaker took occasion to call at
tention of Monta S women to the fact ,
that at the November election there \
will be a bond issue before the voters i
for •?•"),000,(XKI for the use of the insti- |
tutions of higher education and the wei- j
fare institutions and she urged the sup-1
port of the bill, pointing out what it
would mean to the state in improved
service.

Contains No Alum—Leaves No Bitter Taste
Dr. Anne E.* Rude, of the chldren's
welfare department of the U. S. depart
ment of labor asked consideration of
the foregoing questions at the league of
Women Voters convention Monday af
ternoon in Elks hall when she addressed
that body on "Child Welfare." Dr.
Rude said she was glad that the Fnited
States had taken the human view and
was now giving much attention to the
welfire of her children who are to
be the citizens of the future.
Dr. Rude talked of the possibilities
of service to the people which would
conic if the Sheppard-Tower bill is
made a law—the maternity bill, us it is
sometimes termed. She said it proposed
aid on the 50-50 basis for the states
that elected to take advantage of it
and in addition it would give each state
the sum of $10.000 for the use of its
research board in child welfare work.
Dr. Rude said that if the Sheppard
Towner bill becomes a law it will all
depend on the progressiveness of the
state as to what it will mean. She said
for Montana it might mean a maternity
hospital in various communities where
the mothers could go when that need
arose or it might mean nothing but the
proposed $10,000 for the research work.
Citizenship School
at the University
Mrs. Katherine Jamieson, dean of
women at the University of Montana,
was introduced to the delegates at the
League of Women Voters convention on
Monday, and spoke briefly about the
school of citizenship which will be con
ducted at the university .Tune 28 to
July 2. next. She especially urged all
the women who can arrange to do so to
attend all the sessions and promised
them the program will be one of inter
est and instruction for all.

REVELATIONS
OF A WIFE
The Reason Madge Feared Even to
Speak.
"Daughter, dear."
My father's voice was faint, as if he
were speaking to me from a long dis
tance away. But it was steady, con
trolled. and I knew that he had again
recovered his poise after the emotional
stress of reading my dead mother's let
ters so long buried in the little "keep
sake trunk"I had cherished.
I released the light embrace in which
I had held him and stepped back from
his chair before I answered.
"Yes, father," I said quietly. I did not
dare to release more than the monosyl
ables with the remembrance of the
way my voice had affected him but a
few minutes before.
"What are you going to do with this
little trunk when we go south?"
"I had planned to put it back in the
larger one and leave both in charge of
Alice Ilolcombe, who has promised to
care for them until I return."
The emotion-ravaged face which he
turned to me brightened perceptibly at
the words.
"Then you will not object. I am sure,
to permit me to hav e it instead. I can
easily carry it with me south inside my
own trunk. I—I should not like to feel
that—that—its contents were anywhere
else than with me."
For a startled moment an unworthy
resentment which was almost jealousy
swept me. For years I had carefully
guarded these mementoes of my mother
while the man who now claimed them
had not known had existed, had perhaps
forgotten that they had ever been writ
) ten.
With One Reservation.
Forgotten? At the mental picture the
word gave me my resentment fled. I
; knew without doubt that my father had
I never forgotten one facial line, one ges
I ture, one glance of the woman he had
j deserted so cruelly, and I wondered
1 afresh at the complex personality which
t could be at once so faithful and so faith -
I 'ess.
But there was one thing in that little
I trunk which I could not relinquish even
j to my father. With a swift movement
1 I thrust my hand to the bottom of the
! receptacle, brought up the inlaid lock
I box which had been my grandmother's
i and held it tightly to me.
"Everything but this, father dear," I
j said softly, "you may have to keep al
; .ways if you wish. But this mother gave
j to me especially, and it contains many
j little mementoes of our life together. I
i shall be glad to let you look over its
j contents, but I have always carried it in
my own trunk whenever I have gone
j away, and—
"Of course, child," my father inter
| posed. "Won't you please understand
I that I am not claiming these things—
that I only wish to take care of them,
have them with me? And if you will
permit me, I should indeed lik» to look
over the contents of that little box."
1 put it in his hands at once.
An Elusive Look.
"There is only one thing in it, father
dear, that I think mother would not like
you to see," I said, with a mighty bol
stering of my courage. "Years ago she
wrote out tiie story of-of-your troubles
and hers, ami marked it for me to read
if I were ever at the point of my life
where I was desperately unhappy and
felt that I could profit by her mistakes.
She-she said—that she had been much
to blame—and that I was so like her—
that—that—"
My voice ran down like a spent hum
ming top. Across my father's face had
crept a look that puzzled and daunted
me—the same elusive Took which had
come there before when ne had remark
ed that I was very like my mother. And
in that look there was distinct pity as
well as the self-abasement which his
face always held when He was speaking
or thinking of the woman into whose
life he had brought such bitter unhap
piness.
"Show me this paper," he said, a note
of quiet command in his voice.
I opened the box, took it out. with
its inscription, "For my daughter." and
laid it in my father's hands. He looked

"When I began taking Tanlac I had
been confined to my house for four

well-known employe of the city street

"My dear child." he said, and there

which I had seen iu his face. "You will

things— that it probably contains. Your
