MILTON ZIMMERMAN.

WE take great pleasure in presenting
photo plate of our esteemed friend,
Milton Zimmerman, of Bowling Green.
Mr.. Zimmerman is one of Wood coun-
ty's most worthy citizens and has, for
the past three years, been member of
the Board of Infirmary Directors of this
county. He has served his constituents
faithfully and we'll
Wood county's home for the unfortu-
natd is conducted in the most econom-
ical, and humane manner of any similar
institution in the country and much is
due to Mr.. Zimmerman, the senior
member of the Board, for the excellence
of the institution.
Milton Zimmerman has a reputation
of being a patriotic and honorable citi-
zen, loyal Republican and worthy
man in every respect, and the Repub-
licans, in nominating him for second
term, fittingly acknowledged the
worthy services rendered by an able
and competent official.
We would gladly give more extend.
ed sketch, but we are unable to secure
necessary data. 1t will be sufficient to
say that Mr.. Zimmerman is worthy OF
the vote of every good citizen of Wood
county, and his reelection is assured.

GERMAN FoNpNEss FOR CAKE.
Vast Quantities Eaten at Luncheon with
out Apparent Evil Results.

Vast Quantities Eaten ut Luncheon with.
out Apparent Evn Results.
There Is a vast consumption of cof-
fee and cakes at the luncheon hour over
in the German quarter. 1t is, indeed
the land o. cakes, though not of the
Scotch kind. Vienna is famous town
for cakes and pastry, and many of the
residents of the German quarter are
from that city. Hence, doubtless, the
rage for cakes This rage is confined 10
no one age, sex or occupation. 1t seems
to be general; the quarter is of one
mind on this subject. You see the
gravest spectacle, Germans of gray
boards and vest bulk munching cakes
at insignificant little cafes, along with
shop boys, rough young fellows, and
pretty girls. There is somewhere a
theory touching the correlation of
tastes, that teaches that when once a
man has settled down to a genuine
adult fondness for beer, wine and to-
bacco, he loses his joy in sweetmeats;
but the German quarter is a standing
disproof of the etheory, for the cake
eaters smoke pipes and drink both beer
and wine.
The number and variety of cakes dis
played in bakeries and cafes is ap-
palling to one imbued with the modern
belief as to the unwholesomeness of
sweets. You may easily count in such
places thirty or forty different kinds OF
cakes, besides zweiback, plain bread,
crescent rolls, rye bread, and several
kinds of pie, though pie is not spe-
cialty, is consumed in moderate guam
titles, and is always eaten with knife
only, says New York Sun. The chief
thing that saves the whole German
quarter from dyspepsia, in its reckless
consumption of sweets is the fact that
there is no such thing as quick lunch
over there: If man eats only half
dozen slices of cake or as many cres-
cent rolls with his MONDAY coffee, he
fingers over it a proper time reading
the paper or volume of Goethe, or per-
haps playing cards or dominoes with
his table mate. The pale down-towner,
who bolts the sweets of quick lunch
/ in four minutes and hastens back to
work, deservedly pays for his sins with
!
gestion. The German, who fingers
thirty or forty minutes over his light
and seeming unwholesome luncheon, is
fat, rosy and of good conscience. 1t
must be said for the cakes of the Ger
man quarter that they are as harmless
as good cakes can be made. They are
light to dizziness, not over sweet, and
cooked through and through. There is
one other thing that helps to render
the German immune from his terrible
luncheon, and that is that he seldom
drinks with it anything cold. The
quick luncher down town takes cold
milk with his luncheon, doubtless be-
cause it can be gulped down without
delay. The German has hot coffee, tea
or chocolate, or hot milk always with
two or three Jumps of sugar. Hot milk
is cure for almost any disorder of the
stomach. so that the Germans lunch
con contains both bane and antidote.
OF course, the German never insults his
inner man with ice water. and it is sell
dom served. save by request of un-
taught strangers.

D. X. HOLLENBECK.

Above we present the portrait OF d.
K. Hollenheck, the present Mayor and
head of municipal affairs of the village
OF Perrysburg, o.
Mr.. Holenbeck was born in the vii
lage of Mumford, Monroe Co., N. Y,
and came with his fathers family to
Ohio in 1874, settling in Perrysburg in
lS47, where he has ever since continued
to reside. While the county seat was
at Perrysburg he was for a number of
years AN attache of the Probate office
Of this county. Ever since his admis-
sion to the bar in 1857, he has remained
a member of the Wood county bar in
active practice, staining his Office and
residence DIT Perryshurg, thus making
him, with one exception, the Oldest
practitioner in the county, now living.
Although disinclined to force him
self into public notoriety, and although
life long Republican but residing in a
Democratic stronghold, he has for
many years been an important factor in
| an bhC bOllblShl tihCtll > vi MS village anu
township, as we'll as in the county. and
at various times elected and appointed
to various positions of trust and conf =
dence. In the spring of 1894 he was
elected to the Mayoralty of Perrys-
burg by IA much larger majority than
any predecessor had been IN many
years. thus showing beyond all question
that the members of both political
parties repose confidence in him both
as man and public officer. He is also
"A membe' of the Board of Managers of
the Way Library, in which he takes
great Interest, and for years prior to
his election 10 the Office of Mayor was
"a member of the village council.
Since entering upon the active duties
of life and business, Mr.. II. has never
omitted to take advantage of any op-
portunity offered whereby he might
advance the interests of mis- village and
I county, and in all movements looking
to the growth and development of Per-
rysburg. and for the purpose of secur-
Ing the many improvements therein
which tend to its prosperity, he has
has always been found among the first
to come forward with the necessary
devotion of time and means, and to him
probably as much as to any other single
individual is the credit due for its pres
ent prosperity and hattering prospects
for successful future.
Mr.. H. active business career of be-
tween thirty and forty years in Wood
county has been successful and hon
orable one, and has necessarily given
him an extensive acquaintance
throughout the county, and prior to
the influx of people to the county, i'm
mediately following the discovery OF
oil, there were very few men in it with
whom he was not personally acquainted.

e. L. KINGSBURY.

Although the subject of this article
is in no manner a candidate for any
Office, we take pleasure in presenting
brief sketch of his career as promi
nent business man of Perrysburg. an
ardent Republican who is we'll and fay
orbly known throughout the entire
county.
1t was about 80 years ago down in
Connecticut, that he "tirst saw the
light" In '54 he came to Ohio and in
n became resident of Perrysburg,
since which time he has been identi-
fed with the business interests of the
most prominent and highly respected
citizens, always ready to assist in any
laudible enterprise that may be of ben
eft to our village, township or county.
He has been engaged in the grocery
trade ever since his arrival in Perrys-
burg and while never seeking political
favors, his neighbors have frequently
insisted on electing him to positions
OF trust, and thus he has served seven
years as Councilman, two years as
township Treasurer, and is now serv-
ing his second 3.year term as member
of the Board of Education.
Mr.. Kingsbury's reputation for lnteg-
rity and business sagacity marked him
as vhe choice of the appointing board
when it became necessary to fill the
vacancy recently occasioned in the
board of County Commissioners.
He ably filed the Office until his sue
cessor was duly qualified, and during
his brief term las won the reputation
OF being one of the ablest aud hardes,
the people of Wood county.

DIDN'T WANT ANY OF THEM

A Virginia Father Led Ills Sentimentqi
Daughter Out of the House Gallery.
A thrifty old farmer from LoudouI
county, Va, came down to Washing
ton during the session of the last con-
gress accompanied by his daughter, an
extremely attractive young woman. 1t
was to be day of sightseeing and
father and daughter had jolly time
getting around from place to place. 1t
was practically new to both of them,
for they didn't get to the capital often
and very much less often for holiday
entirely to themselves.
The last poiat to be seen was the
capitol and tho couple, after a hurried
visit to the other points of interest
about the great pile of marble, found
themselves in the house gallery. The
old farmer had been reading the papers
pretty closely, and he knew what he

At last she nudged her father.

asked, after the manner of daughters

Presumptuous Falslflers.

The Democratic organs are very pre-
sumptuous in assuming that the people
can be deceived as to the results of the
Wilson tariff. When Democrats We're
making oily promises their plausible
theories as to what would happen as the
result of tariff reform deceived a great
many people. But tariff reform" of
the Democratic brand is an accomplish
ed fact and its results are demonstrated
by statistics and by experience, and
lying can now be easily exposed The
campaign of deception has already begun.
The Democratic organs tell their readers
that the Republican party can never re-
store protection because of the beautiful
results of the Democratic tariff And
they proceed to give what they call re-
suits.
The New York Press has done good
Job in showing up this attempt at de-
ception. The New York Evening Post
and The World have printed lot of
alleged statistics showing an increase of
wages in sundry m anufacturing estab-
ishments, the object being to prove that
the country is just as prosperous as in
the flush Mckinley times, if not more
SO. The Press has investigated these al
legged statistics, and over the signatures
of the manufacturers shows that they
are almost invariably false. The whole
effort to bolster up the Wilson tariff is a
fake supported by falsehood. The man
ufacturers of the country have not been
benefited by che Wilson tariff and work
ingmen are far from being as well off as
they were under Republican protection.
The World has received and printed a
letter from Postmaster General Wilson,
which it calls lone of those timely,
complete and convincing utterances
which leave no more to be said" But
Mir. Wilson is gay deceiver like The
World itself. He writes like dema-
gogue and his conclusions run directly
counter to the truth, as the Urue Stats
tics show. The World, taking its cue
from Mr.. Wilson, says:
Where before our manufacturers
were restricted to home market
which could not consume their product
if they gave full work and wages to
their men, they are now able to con
quer the markets Of the world. Wages
are higher and still increasing because
of the reform. Manufacturers are more
prosperous by reason of it. 1t has given
to the farmer larger market for his
produce. In brief, it has restored u
prosperity destroyed by McKinleyism
and surely promises prosperity greater
than any that the country has even
known"
Every allegation IN this paragraph is
false, and the people know it. The at
tempt at deception is simply laughable
But we presume that it will be kept up
1t is the only resource Of the Democracy
v hich forgets that it can not deceive al
the people all the time.

The Debt and the Extra Suit.

MOBILE, Ala, Nov. S.-The Gulf Coast
Lumbermen, at a meeting, appointed a
committee OF nine to consider the mat
ter of permanent organization and in
structed them to prepare a constitution
and bylaws for the government OF the
