The most painful cases of rheuma-

cations of Chamberlain's Pain Balm;
its continued use will cure any case,
no matter of how long standing. 1t
is equally beneficial for lame back,
pain in the side, pain in the chest,
lameness and in all painful affections
requiring an external remedy. A
piece of flannel saturated with Pain
Balm and bound on over the seat of

Hail Insurance Lawsuits.

Hail Insurance Lawsuits.
Editor NORRIS TRIBUNE.
1t may not be known to the farmers
of this county how the lawsuits
brought against us by the Delaware
Farmers Mutual Insurance Company
have gone SO far, and as it must be &
matter of general interest, particular
ly to the farmers, more especially
those of them who have done business
with that company, we would ask you
to publish this statement in your
paper. The actions were commenced
in justice court before j. d. Gillespie
to collect notes given for hail insurance.
The company was defeated in both
suits in justice court, but appealed to
the district court where the cases
were again tried, and that court de
cided that the company had no right
or authority to insure growing crops
against hail, and for that reason could
net enforce payments of notes given
for such insurance. AS every one can
understand the cases are of the great
est Importance and it will endeavor
to carry them farther rather than quit
this kind of business that the law
prohibits it from doing. We think
under the circumstances it would be
no more than right if those farmers
whose notes the company holds for
hail insurance would help to pay part
of the expense we have incurred in
these suits. These are test cases in
which while defending ourselves and
our own rights we have also been
fighting for the interests of others
as we are.
