More Grand Forks PEOPLE
CAS.kA Has Helped

If you will investigate you will find
you can go into very few stores, banks
or business houses in Grand Forks
but what you will find someone that is
trying CAS-KA. And when we claim
CAS-KA will relieve your stomach or
kidney trouble and rheumatism it
would not take you one hour to find
500 people that would tell you as to
whether CAS-KA is good or not. as we
have been here two months giving this
medicine to from 300 to 500 people
every day. and If you will come to
either drug store, Breidenbach Bros,
west side, or l. Kingman on the east
side tomorrow you will see hundreds
of bottles of CAS-KA sold to people
that have tested It.
Judge P. Mclaughlin Justice Of the
peace): l have only taken this CAS-
KA week, but can say 1t has helped
me for stomach trouble. am going
to get three more bottles of 1t.
Dan Supernant. Grand Forks town
ship: My wife has for years been
bothered with cancer sores in her
mouth. also having terrible headaches
at time. She started to take this CAS-
KA six weeks ago. The sores are all
gone and she has no more headaches.
1t is certainly great medicine for
dyspepsia.
The stomach ia the first thing CAS-
KA gets into condition. II It was not
good for the stomach 1t would be good
for nothing and to show CAS-KA'S
correct action on the kidneys, which
cures rheumatism, people that have
to get up nights and bed wetting
children are relieved in two or three
days. Get one of the hand bills and
see our list of Grand Forks people
that recommended CAS-KA for catarrh
and rheumatism. CAS-KA does things
by making the blood pure. Next week,
Saturday June 8, is your last day to
buy the large 81 bottles for 35c, or
three for 81.
Mail orders will receive prompt at
tention. F. ]. Mcmillan, manager for
CAS-KA Drug company.

towering around the head of the lakes.
MIR. Mcdonnell was with the paving
committee which went to northern
Michigan the first of the week, and he
vouches for the statements that in
places the snow is six feet deep
around Calumet and Red Jacket.
Contractor Mcdonnell when Queried
about the labor question, was loud in
denunciation of the present day la
borer. 'Why we could get more work
out Of the $1.75 common laborer few
years ago than we can get out of ten
of the 1925 and $3.50 man of today.
This labor shortage is "a serious matter
and the contractors don't know where
they are until they get job COM
pleted. don't doubt but what many
railroad extensions, etc., which had
been contemplated for the coming
summer, will have to be called of on
account of the inability to get hon.
bres' to do the work."
