UNITED EFFORT ON DEFINITE PLAN Urtirflta of Chf-enne Meetlnst Will lie Aniinrriit In Washington fen crnl Xevtm of JVe tirnaka. (from n Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN; June !. (Special.) Congress- man rJurkett, who has been authorized to call a conference of his colleagues at Wash ington In November or December for the purpo?f of considering proposed Irrigation legislation, declnres that the object of tho recent meeting in Cheyenne was not espe dally to arouse enthusiasm, but rather to harmonize tho views of western men so that a united effort may bo made In tho Interest of .some definite plan. ''Everybody In the arid or seral-arld states Is already In sympathy with the Ir rlgntlon proposition, but an to tho best plan or method of Irrigating there is a wide difference of opinion." laid Mr. nurkett "Wc hrivo realized this In every attempt to secure federal aid. The difficulty, how ever, has been more through lack of bar mony than direct opposition from those In tcre&tedi The west Is determined now to present a solid front and make a united effort. Unity of action may he said to have been the. object of the meeting. "Several bills were submitted and re vlewfd, but no opportunity was given for any expression, other than as Individuals, An agreement will be reached In my Jtidg mcnt before the next session of congress and a bill will be formulated that senators and congressmen can unite upon, and If this Is done I believe we can hope for good re sults. "Tho conditions differ In tho various states. In some states the problem of dis tribution of water Is a serious one. while In others It Is more simple. The place of conservation of water In some states may be very far removed from the place where It li intended to be used. In others the plnco of conservation and use may be close togbthrr. Then the question of distribution is looked upon differently In different states In some states the expense Is much larger than In others. For example. It was said by one person that It would be useless to undertake any plan In his state expecting It to cost less than )S00,000, while In other states the estimated cost of Irrigating works was only one-sixth as great Dlfferencm of Opinion, "A great difference of opinion relative to tho different methods and plans was dis closed In tho debate In congress lait, winter. Borne contended that the money should not bo appropriated by tho general government, but that the government should assume control and managoment of the work of building and of operating tho system after It was built. Homo persons contended that the water should be carried to the In dividual who.utcd It and told to him di rect by the government. There were others who believed that the government should go no tartner than conserving the water and making It available and that the distribu tion thereof should bo provided for by state laws and be under state regulation and control. Tho diversity of opinion as to tho degree of control that the federal gov ernment should atisumo Is the great stum bling block to united action. Dut those dif ferences must be harmonized somewhere along the line and this we hope to accom pllsh by conference and Investigation. Re sults are what we want and some legitimate I method will probably bo' udopted that will at lrast give ub a starter. The land Is then;, and the climate and the water Is nlso abundant If' properly cared for. The Important thing Is to get all the elements togthcr at the proper season of the ear," Mn- t'ninp In Ilonsrh Place.

Mastlo was con- Good Advice Offered by Good Women. Womanly Counsel Which Brings Womanly Comfort. Suffering women sympathize with each other. Even though thslr condition seems hopeless, there Is a common bond of suf fering which draws them together. But no woman can sympathize with a woman who Is sick, as car. one who has herself had a simitar sickness, and has been cured, and Is once more a healthy, happy woman. Into such sympathy goes hope and help, good cheer and encouragement. Suppose a woman suffering from some form ofwomanly dlsease.lnflammatlon, ul ceration, prolapsus or several diseases In complication. She Is weak, worn out, mis erable. Part of the time she keeps her bed part of the time she drags around In constant pain. There comes to her a neighbor who has heard of her condition, and this neighbor says: 'I was like you are and I can tell you what cured me of every ache ana pain." Suppose not one neighbor but a score or a hundred come and say in similar words: "I was afflicted with a disease like yours, but I wastold of a means of cure and by the use of this rem edy was restored to perfect and permanent health." Would not such re-Iterated state monta from sympathetic and reliable wo men bring the desire to try this means of cure which had brought health and strength to so many In a like condition? Your neighbors recommend Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription for the cure of womanly diseases. They have tried It, been cured by It and are anxious that ery suffering woman should be restored to health as they have been. "My health Is the best now that tt has been for four years," writes Mrs. Phcbe Morris, of Ira, Cayuga Co., N. Y., Box 52. "I havo taken but two bottles of you medi cine, 'Favorite Prescription and 'Gold'n Medical Discovery.' These medicines havo dono me more good than all that I havo ever taken before. I couldn't do my work only about half the time, and now I can work all the time for a family of four. Be fore I took your medicines I was sick in bed nearly halt the time. My advice to all who are troubled with female weakness Is to take Dr. Plerce'a Favorite Prescription and 'Goldon Medical Discovery' the most wonderful medicines In the world." WHO IS MY NEIOHBOR? But the reader of this may say, "I do not know Mrs. Morris, I never beard of her. How can she be my neighbor?" There Is an ancient parable based upon this very question of netghborllness. It relates to a certain man who fell among thieves. His own countrymen passed by on tho other side. It was left to a stranger, an outcast tlnued and that of State against William 8mtth was dismissed on account of tho In ability of the prosecuting witness to ap pear.

"Glad I have not needed It for a few years past, but If I should have any return of the old trouble would surely try 'Favorite Prescription. I have recommended It to a number of my lady friends. I always tell them to try a bottle and If they are not benefited by tt I will pay for the medicine. In every case they have spoken In praise of It." CAN I BE CURED? At the last this question of cure comes down to a personal matter. After trying many medicines and local physicians In vain It Is no wonder that some women think their ease Is exceptional. But a ma jority of women cured by "Favorite Pre scription" thought the same thing. Yet they were cured by the use of this remedy. It Is a possibility that In some cases no complete cure can bo made. But It Is on record that "Favorite Prescription" has cured ninety. eight women out of every hun dred who have given It a fair and faithful trial.
