Rensselaer Republican, Volume 13, Number 25, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 10 March 1881 — Ypsilanti, Mich., Commercial. [ARTICLE]
Ypsilanti, Mich., Commercial.
Our representative lately learned the following from Mr. Carl Siegmund, corner * Congress and Washington streets: My daughter suffered from Rheumatism to such an extent that it crippled her, rendering her unable to walk at all. We consulted many physicians and used all kinds of medicines, hut in vain. At last Bt. Jacobs Oil effected the happiest results. It cured my daughter. In Oregon every man who drinks is required to take out a license costing five dollars. Unless armed with this document, he cannot get his bitters any hotel bar or saloon, since it is a penal offense for the proprietors of such establishments to sell to any person not so armed, as it were. Fancy a stylish young man, dry and thirsty, going into a saloon, and after calling for his lager, being met with the question, “Vere ish dot license vot you trinks by, eh?”
