The ancients believed that rheumatism
was the work Of a demon within a man.
Any one who has an attack OF sciatic or
infammatory rheumatism will agree
that the infection is demoniac enough to
warrant the belief. 1t has never been

would cast out demons, butt it will cure
rheumatism, and hundreds bear testi
mony to the truth OF this statement.
Delayed reports from the extrem south
western portion of this county and the
northern boundry of Ramsey tell story
of the frighttul ravages of prairie fire
that swept over miles of the adjacent
country. ON Friday and Saturday Of last
week. Haystacks without number suf-
fered destruction and in several instances
The stables and grainaries OF new set
tiers made fuel for the flames, together
with the feed and seed grain, which in
many cases they contained. An eve
witness tells the DEMOCRAT that women
and children as we'll as men, fought the
fire with old sacks and everything else
that came tn hand. No correct estimate
Of the damage done can be made and
though no loss of stock or human life
occurred there will be much suffering
among the settlers IN consequence.
