HOW TO QUICKLY
STOP RHEUMATISM
Former Sufferers Tell of Astonishing
Results Following Use of New
Juice Treatment.

There is no longer need for people
to suffer for years from chronic, stub
born, rheumatism, lumbago, lame
back, stiff and swollen joints and mus
cIes. The pain can be stopped very
quickly, the soreness relieved, and the
swelling reduced by short treatment
with the new Root Juice compound.
Mr.. C. Horstman, 1914 w. Jefferson
ST., Fort Wayne, Ind, who made a
test of the new treatment, says: The
ligaments in my hands we're so badly
crippled l could not open them. In
fact was crippled so that I could
scarcely walk. The benefit I derived
from the juice treatment seems almost
like a miracle" Mr.. Jas. Fletcher,
Gainesville, Ga, suffered II years. Al
times he could not get out OF tne
house, and spent several hundred dol"
lars seeking a cure. He says, "Roof
Juice worked like magic. Two bottles
put me on my feet. The swelling has
almost gone. 1 eat well and sleep
fine"
The juice seems to exert its strange
curative influence in severe, stubborn
and long standing cases as quickly
and surely as in the mildest ones for
many who report complete cures have
suffered for years and tried every
thing else without results.
Root Juice can now be obtained at
anv drug store. Those who decide to
trv it, however, are warned against
tricky and dishonest druggists VINO
aro offering worthless limitations.

Presidents Report.


cially and socially.
Presidents Report.
Following is the annual report OF
President Jno. B. Mayes:
To the Members of the Chamber OF
Commerce, Newberry, South Carolina
Gentlemen: 1 beg to submit my an
nual report as president of the cham
Der of commerce. The present cham
Der of commerce was organized about
seven years ago. have been actively
identified with it from its inception,
and for four years was a member OF
the board of governors. During the
year that I have served as president,
it has been forcibly impressed upon
me that the business men Of NeWberry
do not appreciate the value of such an
organization to the business and COM
mercial as we'll as social life of the
community as they should, and for that
reason do not give that hearty CO.
operation and united effort to the or
ganization which IS essential to the
accomplishment of the best results. I
am fully persuaded that we need in
this community a sentiment that will
result in more hearty and general CO.
operation of all the interests for the
general welfare of the town and coun-
ty. We have a good town and one OF
the best counties in South Carolina,
and there should be the most genial
and hearty cooperation between the
people of the county and the town, and
particularly among the business men
of the town. Active interest and hear
ty participation in an organization
such as the chamber Of commerce will
do much to bring about such a feeling.
The membership at present is prac-
tically the same as it was one year
ago. 1t is unfortunately true that some
of the largest mercantile establish
ments in the city are not represented
in the membership of the chamber of
commerce at all. If the members of
these firms would actively identify
themselves with the organization in
stead of at times criticising it for do
ing nothing, they could accomplish
great good for themselves and the
community.
AS to the finances, the Indebtedness
is about S225, and arrangements have
been made, through the Kindness and
cooperation of certain members as
surning the Indebtedness as their per
sonal liability until sufficient funds are
collected by the chamber of commerce,
to take care of it.
Through the assistance of Mr.. F. P.
DeVore. who was secretary OF the
chamber of commerce, some $500 was
subscribed by the owners of automo-
biles to be turned over to the county
supervisor, and to be used by him in
the Improvement of the roads. One
hundred and sixty dollars of this
amount has been collected and the
balance is in collectible subscriptions.
There are several things which
should have the attention Of the cham
ber OF commerce during the coming
year, and if taken hold of in the proper
spirit would result in great advan-
tage to the commercial and social well

Reclamation Work To
Be Done Near Arnheim.
Company Organized to Drain Ten Thousand
Acres Of Land in Baraga and
Houghton Counties.

A reclamation scheme which involves
the building of many miles Of drainage
canals and which will open to cultiva-
tion 10000 acres lying in Houghton and
Baraga counties of what is regarded as
the most fertile land in the upper
peninsula, has been announced by a
company of eastern capitalists, whose
attention has been attracted by the
agricultural possibilities of this Sec
ton.
The plan consists of the dredging of
a main canal ten miles in length. thirty
feet wide and six to seven deep, with
laterals at intervals of half mile, a
mile to mile and half in length and
six feet in depth where they empty in
to the main, which will flow into the
Snake river, draining swamp ten
miles in length and from two to three
miles in width, lying about midway be-
tween Chassell and Keweenaw Bay, in
the delta of the Sturgeon.
Of the tract procured by the devel-
opment company, 5000 acres were
purchased from the South Shore and
1900 acres from Houghton county.
About half the swamp is open. and
The L'Anse sentinel., 1912-02-03

half of 1t is covered with a heavy
growth of tamarack. large enough for
ties, which will be cleared off. An an
alysis of soil shows it to be exception
ally rich. consisting Of six to eight feet
of black muck, with sub-soil of clay.
The swamp dips toward the center, and
there is fall of about three feet to
the mile, excellently adapting it to the
form of drainage proposed.
Two large dredging machines will ar
rive the first of April and work will be
started Immediately under direction Of,
the Clements Dredge Co. of Cleve-
land. The larger dredge, to be used on
the main canal, will be of the floating
type, while the one which is to dig the
laterals will run on rails. The engineer
is now clearing the way through the
brush for the machines, which will
work without cessing once operations
are begun.
The corporation has organized as the
Houghton Land & Drainage company,
with capital of 100000. An effort
will be made to colonize the tract
chiefly with local people.

Some Leap Year Hints.

Girls, be sure you look before you
leap.
Pick out fat man. They wear bet
ter in the long run and, then, too, they
are easier to land. A fat man is ten
derhearted and simply cannot refuse
an offer of morriage.
Never mind the looks. Don't wait
until you find Greek god. Grab off a
homely one while the grabbing is good.
The homely ones are the ones who
bring home the pork chops.
If you cannot support the young mar
in the manner to which he has been &C.
customed, be honest and straightfor.
ward about it and tell him so. Dom,
lead him to expect champaign wher
you have only beer income. Never
lie to the young man about your sal
ary, for when he learns the truth there
is apt to be trouble.
Be sure that your approach is al
that it should be. Everything depends
upon that. When you> ask younf
man to marry you, don't go about it al
though you were ordering ham sand
wich in a one-armed restaurant. B,
pleasant and polite about it. Approach
him with tact and let him find out you
true nature after it is too late for hin
to back out.

The Sacred Heart Catholic church Of
L'Anse, building valued at from
twenty-five to thirty thousand dollars,
was destroyed by fire Tuesday after
noon.
The origination of the fire is un-
known, but it is presumed to have been
started in the rear of the church. The
edifice had been heated that morning
for the funeral of the late Robert Nc
Kindles and the fire must have been
burning for several hours before it was
discovered. The alarm was turned in
at p. m. and the fremen were soon
on the scene, but too late to save the
building, as the fire had gained toe
much headway before discovery. The
volunteers labored hard and had many
narrow escapes from falling stone and
the roof, but no casualties occurred.
