Pe-ru-na Protects Against
Rheumatism
A remedy that will do these things
does protect the system against rheu-
matism. Even after the rheumatism
has begun 1t Is helpful If not absolutely
necessary that such a remedy be taken.
in order to prevent the further accumu-
lation of the morbid materials in the
blood.
This is the way I should treat rheu-
matism. l do not regard Pe-ru-na as a
specific for rheumatism. Not by any
means j would not call 1t a rheumatic
remedy But IL is a remedy for diges-
ton assimilat ton and eXcretion. When
these functions are properly stimulated
and regulated the cause of rheumatism
is removed. and in this way much bene-
fit is derived.

II is easy for me to see. however, how
Pe-ru-na could be used as a remedy for
rheumatism with very excellent results.
Acid stomach Makes Rheumatism
The trouble is, first with digestion.
The digestive organs have not done
their work properly. Or IL they have
the appropriative organs are sluggish.
Or the excretory organs. Now. what l
should do is to give Pe-ru-na in these
cases.
First, because Pe-ru-na will certain
1y stimulate digestion. sharpen the ap-
petite, increase the relish of food.
Second, Pe-ru-na will quicken the
circulation of blood. thereby making
appropriation better. The food after
1t is digested must be taken up by the
glands and carried to the tissues where
1t is needed.
Third, Pe-ru-na will stimulate the
excretory functiors, the kidneys. the

influences are only used for the
purpose of enabling someone to
benefit thereby. Corrupt influ-
ences are used to defeat the in
terests Of the common people and
give to some other interests, cor

their courage, They knew that,
when they made this exposure,
they would be attacked by the or

knew that they must stand much

COMMERCIAL cLuRs
IMPORTANT FAoToRa

The idea that there is no work
for Commercial club in a small
community is often advanced by
those who have not thought Of
the possible activities of such an
organization. At the recent meet
ing of the federation in Grand
Forks this subject was discussed
by a competent speaker who has
made a study of Commercial club
work. In its measurements, its
educational and spiritual life, in
it's sanitary problems, in fact in
every phase of small town life,
the Commercial club can be made
an important factor.
Another community in North
Dakota has appreciated the i'm
pOrtance of trees and is using it's
Commercial club to provide them.
The Neville Commercial club at
a recent meeting, says the Nc
Vile Journal, decided to continue
the good work of last year and
plant more trees on the streets
in Neville.
|. Teams were arranged for and
. committe Of twelve mon sslec-
ted to go to the river and dig out
the trees while another big COM
mite was asked to take care OF
the planting when the teams came
back with the trees.
Last Monday was selected, and
on that morning the digging com
mite went to Peter Christiansen's
place on the bank of the old
Sheyenne river, where sixty-two
good trees were dug out in &
short time.
After dinner stakes were set
and hole digging began, followed
by the planting crew which plac-
ed the, trees. AT six O'Clock the
planting was done and after sup
per the watering crew got busy.

AS will be seen by an article
elsewhere in this issue in regard
to q statement of the result in
the Ness case, the time has come
in the State of North Dakota when
the people propose to see that
legislation is secured without the
aid of bribery and corruption. For
the first time in the history of
the state, man has been exposed
in his attempt to corrupe mem-
bers of the legislature in the en-
actment of laws, when he has
been prosecuted and convicted
for an attempt to bribe men,
bers of the legislature. Without
regard to the merits of the snuff
bill, whether it is good or bad,
it has been demonstrated, by a
verdict of jury, that two ..:en,-
bers of the legislature, to-wit,
A. G. Divet and l.. L. Twitchell,
were sought to be bribed to Sc
cure their support to defeat this
measure. These two men have
shown extreme courage in their
efforts to put an end to this nc
farious practice and to secure
legislation without the aid Of
bribery. 1t is no small matter
for a member of the legislature
to rise in his seat and expose one
who seeks to influence or corrupt
his vote on legislation. It has
