tablished, the number of banks was
80 and the business aggregated
$4,000, 1850.

other year since the organization of
the department"

satisfaction of his patients is most
pronounced.
Natural Science opens q door to u
perfect cure for all forms of illness
for it is the elimination of years of
study and research along lines of
drugless healing Natural Science IS
designed to eliminate disease rather
than to cure it, and to that can be at
tributed its success.
Approved methods, those that have
stood the test of trial and investiga-
ton, correct knowledge of anatomy,
on understanding of the relation Of
mind and body; up to date apparatus
and skilful diagnosis are a part of the
reason why Natural Science has been
so successfully applied to the perfect
cure of diseased human bodies.
If you suffer with rheumatism,

der or liver troubles; indigestion.

delves deep into the facts relative to
the human body that the ordinary hur-
ried man or woman ovexlooks and ig-
nores, and makes the facts plain to
the person of intelligence. Thus 1t is
that Vital Science has been the basis
of SO many wonderful cures. They are
wonderful because the principle and
the philosophy back OF them is so lit

DR.. Gates holds out a confident hope
to the great majority of sick folks;
this hope is not based on mere asser-
ton but upon accomplished results and
a definite understanding of the ire
mendous power that lies back of his
methods Of cure. 1t is fair assump-
ton that If nature has a way for re-
storing natural conditions to a body In
an unnatural condition of health thai
natures method can be found out and
applied This in brief is what DIR. Gates
has accomplished through Vital Science.
Every sick man and every sick wo-
man who reads this newspaper should
visit and know DIR. Gates. not because
YOU are obliged to accept his theories,
but that. you may have actual know
ledge Of the man and his work; that
vi can use your own judgment and

so vital a question as your health.

PROMINENT SPEAKERS FILLED

Treadway Twichell and Lieut.. Gov
r. S. Lewis left this morning for
Armenia and Arthur where they de-

tor McCumber had been billed to speak
at Armenia and Arthur this afternoon
but owing to illness 1t was impossible
for him to fill his engagements at
these two places.
Senator MeCumber was much better
this afternoon and will fill his engage

Wahpeton man is having the best of
success during the campaign and has
been greeted with large crowds at the
places where he has spoken.
The Cass county republican central
committee sincerely regretted the fact
that he was unable to fill his en-
gagements at Armenia and Arthur, but
two Of the ablest speakers of the state
were sent to fill the places of McCum-
Der. It is hoped that Mr.. McCumber
will be able to- finish the remainder of
his itinerary without any further in
convenience.
Senator McCumber spoke last even

He is the sole support of my six
children and myself" she said. "If you
send him to Jail judge we shall starvs.
would rather take his beatings and
have food for the little ones. Please
judge let him go.
Judge William jefferson Pollard
was in a quandary. He looked at
the brutal face of the prisoner, and
he gazed at the fearful wife. He
picked up his pen and wrote a few
lines on a sheet of paper.
II have written here a pledge by
which you promise to abstain COM
pletely from the use of intoxicating
liquors for one year from date" said
the judge to the prisoner, "and You
will report to me at my home two
evenings each week, that l may judge
whether or not you are keeping the
pledge. If you sign this pledge I will
withhold the sentence upon you, but f
you ever violate this pledge within
The year, I will send policeman after
you and send you to the workhouse

the lesson of temperance.
Judge William JEFF Pollard, as hi
signs himself is a bachelor. He has
ever led an unselfish life. He did moi
marry because he had an aged mother
to care for until a few years ago. II
is the memory of this mother that is
the guiding spirit of his life 1t was
she who instilled in him a, love for al
mankind and womankind.
He has a heart as big as his body

who need aid. He is trying to make
his life worth while by pointing tn,
way to his less worthy brethren tx
