"A Permanent Cure For
Chronic Constipation

Although those may dispute IT VINO
have not tried it, yet thousands Of
ence, assert that there is permanent
cure for chronic constipation. Some
testify they were cured for as little as
fifty cents, years ago, and that the
trouble never came back on them, While
others admit they took several bottles
before a steady cure was brought about.
The remedy referred to is DR. Caid
wells Syrup Pepsin 1t has been on
the market for over a quarter of
century and has been popularzed on it's
merits, by one person telling another.
The fact that its strongest supporters
are women and elderly people-the ones
most persistently constipated-makes it
certain that the claims regarding 1t as
q permanent cure for constipation have
not been exaggerated.
II is not violent like cathartic pills,
salts or waters, but operates gently.

DEAFNESS CANNOT Be CURED

There is only one way to cure deafness,

HOW TO UTI1Ize 0VERRIPE tRUlT

Arkansas will have a big
crop of fruit to dispose of this
year. Naturally some of this
fruit will be unsuitable for ship.
ment. There will also be sur
plus of garden vegetables pro-
duced on many farms, but IN
most instances, this surplus will
not be large enough for profit
able shipping business.
How can these fruits and ve-
getables thus barred from the
distant markets, be, saved and
turned into money? Already the
writer is beginning to receive
requests for information of this
kind. Now here is our suggest
ion: Buy a home canning outfit
at once and get to work. Begin
with strawberries and later turn
your attentiol \ to blackberries and
various garden vegetables, such
as deans, peas. tomatoes and
green corn. During the summer
and fall you will find plenty of
work on peaches, pears, sweet
potatoes and pumpkins.
Anyone of average intelligence
ought to make from $40 to $25
every day that he puts in at this
during the Spring, Summer and
fall. In fact the writer h
known small farmers to make as
high as $500 to $1,000 in a single
season with their home amer.
A good outfit will not cost you
much. A machine with capaci-
ty Of 200 to 1000 cans per day
should not cost more than So to
S16, and machinery large enough
to take care of large crops of
fruits and vegetables can be pur-
chased for from $25 to SIS.
Do not fear that you will be
unable to sell the output from
your Gamer if your work is pro
perly done. While the home can
ner is intended mainly to utilize
a class of stuff that, because OF
over ripeness or defects, would
not bring remunerativclprlces In
it's crude state, the home sack,
when properly put up, always
sells for a higher price than the
output Of canning factories.
Thousands of farmers are every
year selling everything they put
at good prices.
Do not stand back on the
ground of experience, With the
aid of the fall printed instruct
ions for its use. (which will be
sent with yolr outfit, you will
soon learn how to pat apia first
class pack.

Turtle Lake Wave

John L. Brekken finished threshing
his wheat last week and got an average
of 20 bushels per acre.
VIM. Lierboe this week shipped a
carload of 60 bacon hogs to the city
meat markets. These he estimates
will average about 25O pounds each. He
has 80 more on his farm northeast of
town and will have another carload
ready for the market later.
1t has been customary this fall not to
thresh on Sundays. Last Sunday this
rule was broken and almost every ma
chine in the country was going. The
snow has melted away all but the drifts
and this week shock threshing as well
as stack threshing is receiving atten-
tion and the grain is in pretty good
condition. The weather has been ideal
the past three weeks and continues so.
All who are not threshing this week are
blowing and as a result not so much
grain is coming to the elevators.

Organize For Burke

Fargo, N. D., Nov. Is. "A non-par-
tisan organization has been started in
North Dakota and Northwestern states
to request President-elect Wilson to
name Governor Burke secretary Of the
interior.
The organizers Of this movement
point out that Governor Burke, dem
ocrat, has been three times elected gov
ernor Of North Dakota hitherto one Of
the strongest republican states in the
union in proportion to population.
North Dakota was also placed in the
democratic column for Wilson.
The strength Of the movement in
favor Of Governor Burke lies in the
popularity of his administrations which
have met with approval at home and
given North Dakota prominence in the
Union as q progressive state.
The clsims Of the supporters Of Gov
sernor Burke for the cabinet position
are that he has given North Dakota

Much Grain Unthreshed

7 DIR. j. w. Robinson of Garrison, is in
the city to attend meeting of the Live
Stock Sanitary board of which he is a
member. Questioned as to whether
threshing was about completed in the
vicinity of Garrison, Mr.. Robinson re-
piled that no flax had been threshed
and that at least so per cent of the
wheat and other small grains remained
unthreshed.
Mr.. Robinson expressed himself as
being well satisfied with the decision of
the supreme court regarding the divi-
sion of Mclean county. He admitted
that, in the event Of the county of
Stevenson being organized and Garri-
son being made the county seat, busi-
ness men Of his town would be better
satisfied and a larger volume of busi-
ness would be transacted there, but
said that in his judgment the majority
of the taxpayers throughout the coun-
ty were against division for the reason
that two counties meant another set of
Offices and other additional expenses
to the taxpayers that he did not care to
assume. Bismarck Tribune.
