“BISMAROK ‘DAILY TRIBUNE. TUESDAY, JANUARY 2, 1017, NOT GOING AFTER REAL - ESTATE MEN'S SCALPS, AWS WOOD OF EXCHANGE Believes Immigration Work of League Will Assist Legiti- mate Business “The League exchange has no fight with the legitimate real estate man,” declared today President F. B. Wood of the League exchange, the million- dollar corporation recently organized by the Non-Partisan league, The first activity of the League ex- change has been along immigration lines, It has advertised for the listing of farm lands held for sale with its immigration department, and there has been a somewhat general impres- sion that the exchange was going af- ter the scalps of individual real estate men, “Our idea is that there will be a tre- mendous immigration movement to North Dakota during the coming year,” said President Wood. ‘The ex- perience of all states with such move- ments has been that there have ar- rived with it a flood of fly-by-night real estate sharpers, who have bled both seller and buyer and who have in a very short time given the state a bad reputation which has remained long after the departure of the ‘get-rich- quick’ real estate men. “To protect the immigrants who are coming in, and the owners of North Dakota land which is offered for sale, ; OUCH! LUMBAGO? Try Musterole. See How Quickly - It Relieves You just rub Musterole in_ briskly, and usually the pain is gone—a delicious, soothing comfort comes to take its place. Musterole is a clean, white ointment, made with oil of mustard. Use it instead of. mustard plaster. Will not blister. Many doctors and nurses use Muster- ole and recommend it to their patients. They will gladly tell you what relief it gives from sore throat, bronchitis, croup, stiff neck, asthma, neuralgia, congestion, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago, pains and aches of the back or joints, sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chilblains, frosted feet, colds of the chest (it often prevents piieumonia).

We are asking for ourselves a fair profit on the business, and we fee] that fair real estate men will not be damaged by fair competition. And we do not ex- pect, by any means, to monopolize all of the business. The results of our work will throw an unlimited amount of business into the hands of good, in- dependent real estate men throughout the state.” Much Land Listed. Thousands of acres of lands have been listed with the League exchange, states Mr. Wood. And a very satis- factory number of queries for lands is being received from outside the state. Every mail is bringing into the ex- change headquarters new requests for information regarding North Dakota farms. ROWANA WAN GALLS BET--WINS $100 AND A NURSE FOR BRIDE Cupid Played Great Game for Harry Bronson Who Had ' the Winning Suit (Special to the Tribune.) Ramona, N. D., Jan. 2.—Harry Bronson received a photograph of his lady friend as a Christmas gift. To his friends he opened the folder and let them see her likeness. “Harry, | will bet you $100 that you cannot marry that girl before 6 o’clock tomorrow night,” stated Tony Revsch, after the subject of matri- mony had absorbed the beauty of the photograph. Harry, inclined to be a little sporty, immediately covered the amount. ‘Soon Central had Harry communi- cating over the long distance with Miss Blanche C. Ripley, a trained nurse at Sioux Falls and practicing her profession there. She said “Yes,” and Harry replied, “good.” That night Bronson caught an auto to Madison and while in the act of purchasing the ring, stumbled into Clerk of ‘Court Burnett, who wrote out the license. Catching the mid- night train, he met his lady friend at Egan and as the incoming train was late they did not reach Madison un- til 3 o’clock the following morning, and thence to ‘Ramona. ‘A pastor was hustled out of ‘bed to tie the knot. Five minutes later, Harry Bronson hed a bride and a wa- ger won. CURRENT TURNED ON AT « TOWNER FOR FIRST TIME Janu ‘Towner, 'N.
