He Owned That Fly.

1t was on the west bound express over
the Michigan Central the other afternoon.
A fat man who had been complaining OF
the heat, dust, rate Of PROCESS and many
other things finally decided to take nap.
Before getting settled down and closing his
eyes he was seen by those nearest him to
take an artificial fly from his vest pocket
and place it on his nose, but it was quar-
ter Of an hour before it attracted attention.
Then a woman looked back and noticed ii

"Samuel, do you see thatP You had
better go and brush that fly off that poor
man s nose. It's a wonder he can sleep
with it, but s'pose he's tired out"
eyes, I guess I'll do that much for
him, replied the man, and he rose up and
went back. The fly was quiet, and he adj
vanced his thumb and finger and carefully
picked 1t off and dropped it on the floor.
Wha-what is it?'' asked the baldheaded
man as he reused up.
"a fly on you nose, sir"
ga fly, eh Where is itp All, see"
He picked it up and replaced it on his
nose and said
"Sir, would thank you to mind your
own business. This is my fly. I bought
him for 10 cents. Attend to your own fly,
and 1 will to mine.
He leaned back for another nap and aft

half minute the farmer returned to his
wife.
"What Is 1t, SamueI?" she asked.

Condition of crops.

NORTHERN SECTION. The weather
has been very warm during the week,
and abundant rains have fallen in all
or nearly all of the counties. Corn
is generally in fine condition, is ear
ing well and is maturing rapidly, be-
ing nearly ready to cut in several
counties. Late potatoes are general
ly in good condition, except that
blight is reported as doing some dam
age, and one or two reports of dam
age by grubs. Millet and fodder corn
have made much improvement.
Root crops and gardens are looking
better. Cider making has begun.
Fall plowing is well advanced and in
many counties nearly completed;
ground is generally in good condition.
Pastures are much improved, but in
many the grass is still short. Buck,
wheat is filling we'll. Some fields of
seed clover are filling well, while 9th
ers are reported as in poor condition.
Sweet corn and tomatoes, raised foI
canning, are in good condition.

The Big Fair On!
OVER THREE THOUSAND
ENTRIES,
Which Guarantees the Fair Sue
cess if the Weather Remains
Clear.

As,we go topress Wednesday after
noon the Napoleon Fair is in full
blast, with prospects of being the
most prosperous exhibition in the
history of the association.
The weather is not what could be
desired, but if it proves to be pro
pitious the balance OF the week,
thousands of people within a radius
of twenty miles will flock to Napo-
leon to see the big fair.
TIL entries number over three
thousand; and many of the depart
ments are crowded for space. No
tably so is the live stock department
and the space allotted to poultry.
Never before has a Napoleon fair had
such display of poultry. 1t is not
only large, but in variety and beauty
is hard to be excelled.
Floral Hall is well filed with the
handiwork of woman, more beauti-
full and varied than ever before. The
art department is up to the standard,
as are also the displays made by
some of our prominent business men
in this building.
Fruit and vegetable hall shows
what the soil of Henry county will
produce, the display ranking the
county among the best agricul
tural localities in the state.
The machinery, implement and We,
hicle display is above that seen al
county fairs, and is being visited by
thousands of interested farmers, fol
the convenience of whom most of il
has been constructed.
The w. r. G. are getting up good
meals on the ground, and the women
are being we'll patronized, as are
all the eating and lunch stands on the
grounds.
The races and daring balloon feats
of Prof. Little are receiving con
siderable attention. These will bt
on the program every day.
The water works are supplying the
grounds with water for both MAI
and beast, and the supply is suffici
ent for all, which is convenience ap
preciated by everybody.
