Want Assessments Reduced.
Tax Agent Swartz of the Northern

on business concerning the assessment
of tbe company's landB in this county.
He stated tbe company expects to get a
reduced valuation on its lands from

bave been assessed too high. How
much of an assessment on the lands in
tbe coteaux was considered reasonable
Mr. Swarlz did not state.
Be Careful
No woman can be too careful of
her condition during the period be
fore her little ones are born. Neglect
or improper treatment then endan
gers her life and that of the child. It
lies with her whether she shall suffer
unnecessarily, or whether the ordeal
shall be made comparatively easy.
She had better do nothing than do
something wrong.
MOTHER'S
FRIEND.
Is the one and the only preparation
that is safe to use. It is a liniment
that penetrates from the outside.
External applications are eternally
right. Internal medicines are radi
cally wrong. They are more than
humbugs—they endanger life.
Mother's Friend helps the muscles
to relax and expand naturally—re-'
lieves morning sickness—removes
the cause of nervousness and head
ache— prevents hard and rising
breasts—shortens labor and lessens
the pains—and helps the patient to
rapid recovery.
From a letter by a Shreveport, La.,
woman: "I have been using your
wonderful remedy, Mother's Friend,
for the last two months, and find it
just as recommended."
