CRUSE OF RNEUMATISM AT LAST OISCOVERED New Ot! from Germany Stops Pain Instantly in Many Cases For years the cause of rheuma- tism has been laid to a dozen dif- derent reasons. Learned doctors even disagreed among themselves. Only lately has it been definitely ‘Bemonstrated that the real cause o: “many cases of rheumatism is the absorption by the body of poisons from some internal infection. These poisons are absorbed by the blood and dep in the joints and mus w they quickly fet up intlammation and cause agon- izing pain. And now the same German chem- istry that created those well-known Pain-killers, Aspirin for headaches ‘and Novocain for painless dentistry, as come forward with a newly dis- jovered ofl for rheumatic pain— the pain at once in many ses.

BIOSSUBMITTED) PUBLIC OPINION IMPORTANT 10 PUBLIC UTILITY Corporation Security Found in Favorable Attitude. Publio opinion and its effect on public utilities was discussed in an address Wednesday evening by John W. Greenawa't of the Mountain States Telephone & Telegraph com- pany before the Casper Lions club. In a resume of remarks made on Tuesday before the Casper Chamber of Commerce forum, Mr. Greenawalt called particular attention to the Public's interest in a thriving utility which is made possible only by nat- ural understanding of the other's ; needs and requirements. Public opinion, he pointed out, is the most valuable asset and security }of public utilities by reason of the fact that if favorable it paves the | Way for greater expansion and new | industries, Unfavorable public opinion has an opposite effect. The speaker at the same time took curities as a stumbling b!ock to in- dustrial expansion and the promotion of much needed improvements by publio utility and other concerns, There ts no justification of tax ex- emption for the hoarded wealth of jthe country, he declared. Dr. M. C. Keith, president of the Lfons club, won the attendance prize last night and will donate the prize next week when !ad'es' night will be celebrated at a Hajjowe'en affair.

Secretary Denby told the com- mittee he had initiated the transfer | of the control of all naval reserves from the navy to the interior de- | partment. He read letters showing that it was his opinion that the | custody of the ofl lands properly | belonged to the interior department, among them one to the president in which he stated that Secretary Fall would give his best efforts “to conserve underground as much oll as possible.” The officer in charge of the navy bureau which had supervision of the reserves opposed the transfer, Sec- retary Denby said, and rep'ying to questions by Senator Walsh, Demo- crat, Montana, he said the proposal had not been submitted to the gen- eral board of the navy or the council of the bureau chiefs for recommen., dations, and that he could not give the committee the name of any naval officer who approved it. “When I found that there was | Serious drain'ng from the naval re- serves in California and Wyoming, I thought the department of the jinterlor being fully equipped for handling matters of that kind, was the proper department to handle the situation for the navy,” he said. “I therefore asked Secretary Fall if he would handle the reserves for the navy department. When he agreed to do so we dischssed the proposed transfer with the president and ob tained his approval. An executive order making the transfer was then prepared for his signature.” ‘Could the president, in your opin- lon, by executive order, divest you of the direct'on of naval affairs and PIMPLY?
