borhood are not sufficient for the
safety of vessels. Alpena should
he supplied with a fog whistle at
the mouth of the river, to assist
sailors in making this port in time
of heavy fog or storm when q
light cannot be seen at any distance
The absence of q whistle has been
seriously felt during the past two
months. And North Point is one
of the most desirable locations on
the lakes for light and whistle,
as has been clearly shown by the
number of vessels damaged OF lost,
and amount of property destroyed
during the past few years. This
season many vessels have grounded
on or near this point in fog or
storm, in absence of light or sig
nal to warn them Of the approach
ing danger. This is n matter that
demands attention, and should be
looked after at once and if these
safeguards could be supplied at
these points, we are confident that
the number of disasters in this To-
cality would be lessoned more than
tenfold.

Needless Suffering.

Why is it that when attacked with
headache, toothache, neuralgia, rheuma.
tism or any of the countless pains and
aches that flesh is heir to, many persons
suffer for days and perhaps weeks, en-
deavorlng all the while to bear up stoi-
cally under their weight of Affections ?
Why is it they run frantically from one
remedy to another, seeking relief aud
finding noneY And why is IL that If
finally their pains are removed, 1t is at
such a flightful cost of time and money
The answer to all these questions is very
simple; it Is because they have never
tried that sovereign remedy, the Seven
Seals or Golden Wonder, for if they had
they would have been instantly
egectually cured The most excruci-
ating acute pains, and the most agon-
izing chronic aches are alike driven out
by its magic influence. 1t is the most
speedy and certain remedy for pains that
has ever been discovered. Nov.

Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneumonia, and

Detroit, NJ, Nov LIST, 1871
Manager, Alpena:
DEAR SIR:-Hereafter the ar
rival or departure of a steamer
mnst not he reported by offices OH
the Detroit and Alpena line, unless
such reports are pail for at mes
sage rates. The w. u. Tel. Co.
does not erect and maintain tele-
graph lines, at great cost, to do
business of this or any other kind
free of charge. If any one desires
to know when steamer arrives at,
or departs from q certain port, they
must obtain such information in n
business way, and pay for it at the
usual message rates.
Respectfully yours.
C. CoRBETT,
Asst Supt.
Now this order may he on a
strictly business principle, but
there are very few people on the
shore who can look at it in that
light. To be sure the telegraph
company keeps the line in repair
and operation, and pays for the
same. But at the same time if
there was not a sufficient amount of
business done over the line to make
it a paying investment, the COM
pany would abandon it at once.
The real truth is that the Alpena
Office, counting going and coming,
amounts to over $1,000 worth Of
business to the company each year,
but judging from the above order,
we are led to believe that this
amount does not meet the sum that
the Assist Supt. would desire it
should, and he attempts to make
our business men contribute more
freely to the profits of the COM
pany. We believe that such little
information as keeping our bust
ness men posted as to the arrival
and departure of boats, both on
the Detroit and shore routes, has
been source Of considerable bus
mess to the company that they
wonld not otherwise have obtain
ed. There is always two sides to a
story, and we feel confident that
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany will yet discover that the
Asst Supt. made grave mistake
when he issued the order given
above.
