VACCINATION BY .. y.
COMPULSION~ MAY
BE ABANDONED

Bismarck. N. D., Jan. , 23.-The
doom Of compulsory vaccination was
sounded in North Dakota yesterday
when Senator. Wenstrom introduced
with the approval Of the league eau
u Senate Bill 81, which repeats the
present statutes making vaccination
compulsory and provides:
No form OF vaccination or i%nocula-
ton shall hereafter be made q condi-
ton precedent, in this state, for the
admission to any public or private
school or'college Of any person. or for
the exercise of any right, the per-
Torrance or any duty, or the enjoy
ment Of any privilege, by any per-
son.
The bill carries an emergency
clause. It is believed certain to pass,
with at. least all the votes of the
league majority in both houses and
it will Immediately become a law.
North Dakota's vaccination statutes
have not been rigidly enforced gen.
orally, Ramsey county is one excep-
ton. There a boy was denied admis-
sion to the public schools because he
could not produce an affidavit show
ing successful vaccination. as requir-
ed by q ruling Of the state board Of
The boys father brought action
against the school board in district
court, and the cas- was brought on
appeal to the supreme court, whose
opinion is still pending.
one OF the principal Arguments adj
vanced In league caucus in favor Of
repeating the statute was that even
medical men are not g. unit as to the
adVtsabtlty of vaccination.

A Single Remedy Often
Cures Many Diseases
BY VALENTINE MOTT. M. y.

BY VALENTINE MOTT, M. d.
1t is almost impossible to give a list
OF the endless diseases that follow in
digestion. Perhaps a whole column
In this newspaper would be required
to print them all. You eat to keen
aive-to supply blood and flesh and
bone and muscle and brain. It lis
easy to see that if-your food is not. di-
gested and taken up by the delicate
organs and distributed where it is
needed. a disease of some sort is sure
to come. Dyspepsia is a common
symptom. and so are liver complaint,
loss of flesh, nervousness, bad mem.
ory, dizziness, sleeplessness, no appe-
tite. Many times, when neglected,
indigestion results in coughs, throat
diseases, catarrh, bronchitis and even
more dangerous things. And all these
disorders arise because the food is not
properly digested in the stomach. It
is plain even to a child hat relief and
cure are to be had only by setting up
q healthy condition in the stomach.
DR.. Pierce. of Buffalo, N. T., many
years ago combined a number of
vegetable groWths into a Temperance
remedy for indigestion, and called it
Golden Medical Discovery. It is
probably the most efficacious dis
covery ever made In medicine, for the
list of people all i've the world who
have had their countless ills overcome
by D.. Rierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery makes an amazing total of
thousands.
I know Of no advice better than
this: Begin a home treatment today
with this good vegetable medicine. It
will show you better than. 1 can tell
you what it will do. When taking
Golden Medical Discovery, you can
rest assured OF one very important
thing-it contains neither alcohol nor
opiates. There is nothing in 1t but
standard roots and herbs that possess
curative properties of a high order.
A safe medicine is the only kind you
car afford to take.

State Shows Big Increase in

Minneapolis. MINI, Jan. 23.-sav-
ings banks deposits in the state
wholly or partly in the Ninth Fed
eral Reserve district increased an
average amount Of 1905 per cent
during the general war period of
August, 1914 to November 1918, A.
r. Rogers. chairman Of the district
war loan organization pointed out in
showing that appeals for thrift and
saving aimed directly at increasing
the sale of War Savings Stamps and
Liberty Bonds are having their effect
also in increasing banked savings.
North Dakota Leads,
Among the district states North
Dakota leads by far. her saving
bank deposits having grown .279.1o
per cent during the four years. The
North Dakota per capita total OF
$131.55 is lower, however, than any
other Ninth district state except Wis
consin. Only one other state in the
union, Arizona. having a higher per-
centage OF increase.
The increase figures are all per
capita. They were compiled by the
American Institute Of Banking and
furnished to Mr.. Rogers.
Minnesota per capita savings IN
creased in the four years from $92.61
in.1914 to $147.14" at the time the
armistice was signed. The actual in
crease in dollars was $54.63 per
capita. War Savings Stamp figures
taken at the corresponding time for
1913 show that from the time the
stamps were issued up to the armis-
tee Minnesota had bought 1886 OF
the stamps. The figure is expected to
reach $12, when the report for the
full year is out. Meanwhile savings
bank deposits also will have in.
