lhere is a great Ql1e-ence in the
purposes to which a laxative should
be put. Tablets and pills, salts, etc,
are usually violent purgatives OK
cathartics, and altogether too power
full for the average person.
A woman at all times needs only
mild laxative-in fact, none other is
needed by anyone, weak or strong though
they may be, for the object is simply to
move the bowels, and if a gentle laxative
will do 1t, what is the use of a violent
one?

well-deServed vogue among women and
children and old folks-people who must
necessarily be careful of what they take

action make it an ideal remedy for women
in constipation, torpid liver, sour ston,-

snort time will remove the trouble en-
tirely so that future medication will be
unnecessary. Its tonic properties build up
the stomach and intestinal muscles So
that they act naturally again. That this
is so is the experience of many heads or
families, like Mrs. Brannan, of Alvarado.

would be to urge q counsel of perfec-

Sausages are, of course, made Of many

gar is naturally replaced by saccharine
to which gelatin is added to fmpart

IN DAYS OF FLINT AND STEEL.

Extraordinary Efforts Required to Get
a~Fire Burning. r.~
Sixty years ago the use of flint and
steel to produce fire was not wholly
unknown. The late William E. Stone
of Peoria lived, at Beaver, Pa. His
father one warm August night was
stricken with apoplexy. The fire was
out In the kitchen hearth and his
mother, in her distress, unable to find
the finder box, was obliged to send
his brother, Marsh, two miles and Z
half to a neighbor. She gave him
q handful Of tow, which he put In his
pocket, says the Peoria Star. ARGUS
ing q neikhbor with some difficulty,
she gave him, a live coal, which he
wrapped in the tow, and, putting It
back in his pocket, ran home. When
he arrived there he swung the tow
around his head, thus famed the coal
and produced q fame which lighted
the candle. In the meantime relief
had been 20 long coming that tho
father was past all surgery.

Opinion by Morgan, c. j., All con-

}. p. Lamb 4 Co., 4 corporation, re.
spondent, v. Merchants National
Mutual Fire Insurance Co., a cor
poration, appellant.
The powers of the officers Of a domes.
tic mutual fire insurance company are
more limited than those possessed by
like officers of stock companies.
A mutual fire insurance company.
organized under the laws of this state
is an association of individuals to
provide mutual relief in case of loss
by fire. All policy holders are mem
bers and each one has the same pro-
portionate interest that every other
member possesses, and is liable to the
same proportionate extent.
The members of a mutual fire insur-
ance company organized under the
laws of North Dakota, are all entitled
to the same treatment and the OFF,
GERS of such a corporation cannot
favor one member at the expense OF
his fellow members as this would
contravene the principle Of mutuali-
ty which is at the foundation Of mu
tual insurance.
Bylaws of corporation are laws
for the regulation of it's officers and
the management Of its property. They
have the same force and effect as be-
tween the members and officers in
the conduct of the affairs of the cor
poration that a public statute has,
unless in conflict Herewith, and can
only be repealed or amended in the
manner provided by law.
The statutes under which a domes-
tic mutual fire insurance company is !
organized, it's articles of incorpora-
ton or charter, and bylaws all enter
into the contract OF insurance and |
are binding not only on the organiza- !,
ton but on each member thereof.
While the officers of a domestic
mutual fire insurance company, the
bylaws Of which are required by law
to be adopted by vote of the men, !
bers, may waive many Irregularities,
they have no power to waive any
matter of substance contained in such
bylaws, and It is accordingly held I
that the secretary of such corpora
ton has no power to waive definite
terms of it's bylaws which provide
under what circumstances and for
what time credit may be given mem
bers for premiums or assessments, or
to give such credit in any other man
ner than that provided by such BY
laws. .-~.
A section of the bylaws of a do
mestbc fire insurance company, which
was printed upon the policy In suit,
provided that If the premium should
unpaid for thirty days after
the taking effect of the policy, such
policy should be and remain suspend
ed until the payment by the policy
holder and the receipt and acceptance
by the company Of such premium, and
that during such period the policy
should be uncomfortable and the com
pany not liable thereon, and that II
It remained suspended for sixty days
1t should be cancelled without notice.
In this case no premium was ever
paid and the policy was cancelled a.
by such bylaws. Held:
That the holder Of such policy cannot
recover for loss occurring after the
expiration of such period and the
