The Line Of Lakes.

The above name has been applied
to the Wisconsin Central lines on &C.
count of the large number Of lakes
and summer resorts tributary to its
lines. Among some of the we'll
known summer resorts are Fox Lake,
Ill. Lake Villa, I'll. Waukesha, Muk-
wonago, Cedar Lake, Neenah, Wau.
paca, Fifeld, Butternut and Ashland,
Wis. These lakes abound in numer.
GUS species of fish, such as black bass,
rock bass, pickerel, pike, perch, musk
allonge, while sportsmen will find an
abundance of game, such as ducks,
geese, quail, snipe, etc. In the grand
u of her scenery, the charming
beauty of her rustic landscapes, and
the rare perfection of her summer
climate, the state of Wisconsin is ac-
knowledged to be without a peer in
the union. Her fame as a refreshing
retreat for the overheated, careworn
inhabitants of the great cities during
the midsummer months, has extended
southwark as far as the Gulf Of Mexico
and eastward to the Atlantic.

NV dear Sirs-I take great pleasure
in acknowledging the great benefit my
wife has derived from your great and
wonderful medicine, B. B. r. For two
years she was a sufferer from scrof-
ula or some blood disease which had
lain dormant in her system all her life,
we had attention from some of the
most skilful physicians iu the country,
NGR0EH A but all to no effect, until
OUnUT ULA we all despaired of her re-
covering. Her mouth was a solid ul-
Ger, and for two months or more her
body was broken out with sores until
she lost a beautiful head of hair. and
also her eyebrows and eyelashes. In
fact, she seemed to be a complete
wreck. Now comes the great secret
which ! want all the world to know,
and that is that three bottles of Blood
Balm medicine did the work, which
would sound incredible to any one who
did not know it to be SO. Today my
wife is perfectly healthy n clear from
any scrofulous faint, and she now has
a three-months.old babe, also perfectly
healthy. Very respectfully,
H. i. CASSIDAY.

Unprecedented Hail.

The report comes that the Morley

Mountain, witnessed the greatest hail
storm on record. 1t fell in such great
quantity that the ground was covered
from twelve to eighteen inches with
cobbles of solid ice.
The crops were a total wreck, and
the great hail stones stripped the trees
bare. 1t is said that the bark was peal
ed from the saplings, so heavy was the
fall of hail. Saturday evening there

A PROMISING SITUATION.
CNew York Daily INVESTIGATOR

A
Good judges say that one Of the next
localities to achieve distinction by
jumping from substantial town to a
thriving metropolis in few years will
be the city of Superior, Wisconsin, and
this, too, without the effort and strug-
gle through which interior towns have
passed while effecting the same result.
Until year or two ago the average
man did not stop to think that Supe-
rior as monopolist of the water and
rail termini at one end of the lakes is
in the same position as Buffalo is at
the other end. Figures are uninter-
estlng unless given briefly, but COM
PARSONS are always important This
little Superior, credited by its last CEN
sus with only $4,000 people, handled
more coal last year than did Chicago;
of grain, it shipped nineteen million
bushels, of flour, sixteen hundred
thousand barrels of wool, four million
pounds, of merchandise, to the value of
thirteen million dollars. OF all lake
cities this business was second only to
Chicago in magnitude. There is an
economical reason for this condition Of
things. 1t is that the rail rate on
freight sent west of Lake Michigan il
one cent per ton per mile, while the
water rate is one-tenth of one cent
per ton per mile. This position ut the
extreme western end of Lake Superior
is what gives the city Of Superior its
prestige, and is making it grow faster
than Chicago ever did. Besides one
hundred and one smaller industrial
concerns, Superior has located twenty
eight large manufacturing enterprises
in the past eighteen months, including
the American Steel Barge Company,
the builders of the famous "Whale-
back vessel, which is revolutionizing
the lake and ocean freight-carrying
trade. The twenty-eight institutions
above mentioned include iron and
steel plants, -four mills, stove factories,
wagon factories, pump makers, ship
builders and saw and shingle mills.
The most conservative business men in
the Northwest believe that Superior
will grow faster in the next ten years
than any other city in that prosperous
section of the country, and many of
them claim that Chicago, st. Paul,
and Milwaukee have never
seen the rapid growth that will come
to the head of the great chain of lakes
and the city of Superior.

A Comfortable Nest

at last .ft is only natural and right
that when the young birds have be-
come old enough to fly they should
leave their paternal nest and go off
with their chosen mates to build nests
OF their own; and yet it hurts. Oliver;
it hurts when think of one of my
fledgelings getting ready to fly away"
