Just as Owosso Lodge No. sS, was called
to Order, on Friday evening, Sept. IS, the
members of Star of Hope Rebekah Lodge
No. 76, presented themselves in the ante
room and asked admission to the hall. Per-
mission for their admission having been
granted they entered in body, and being
seated, Sister Horton, on their behalf, rose
in her place and in pleasant speech pre-
scented to Owosso Lodge No. SS, a life like,
half life size portrait of Thomas Wildey, p.
g. S., elegantly framed. The lodge was
taken entirely by surprise but nevertheless
were highly gratifed by the presentation.
BY request of the Noble Grand, p. G.
Wiley returned the thanks of the lodge for
the unexpected donation of this valuable
addition to the decorations of their new and
elegant hall. The portrait was the work of
Geo. Welte, p. G.. and one of the best
artists in the state.

How Tigers Are Sometimes Caught.

The natives of Singapore have novel
method Of catching tigers which is
found to be very effective. When they
come across a tail, they gather together
a large quantity of dry leaves and mix
them up in kind of bird lime made
by boiling holly bark and then mixing
the juice with nut oil.
They scatter these leaves ON the trail
and await their prey. Presently tiger
comes along and leaf sticks to him.
He raises his paw and tries to get it off.
This he does several times, until the paw
is covered with leaves. Then he rolls
over, and his fate is sealed. In mo-
ment he is smothered in twigs and
leaves until he resembles huge, shak-
ing ball, from which issue terrific roars.
He struggles for long while, when
he becomes exhausted. Then the natives
come forward and either dispatch him
or put him in wicker basket and carry
him off.

How to Make an Excellent Polish.

For silver polish that may be kept ON
hand for use mix few drops of am
monia with common whiting used for
the silver and add enough water to
make of the consistency Of cream. Bot
tie this and keep it tightly corked.
Drop little of this mixture on the p1l.
ishing cloth, rub the silver lightly and
rinse in warm water, and the silver will
be instantly frightened and cleaned
without the hard rubbing necessary
when polishing with the dry whiting.
For removing paint and putty marks
from window glass this same mixture
of ammonia and whiting may be used
for stubborn cases or simply little am
monia in warm soapsuds. If whiting is
used, let it become nearly dry ON the
GLASS before polishing.

Ever if it were true that free cv,nae

Even if it were true that free cuinage
at 16 to would raise the price of sill
yer, how would that benefit the great
majority of the American people? Not
one person in thousand owns silver
mine or has silver bullion for which he
wants higher price. But everybody
wants to buy silver in the form of man
ufactured articles of use or ornament,
and therefore wants it to be as cheap as
possible. A scheme for making glass
ware or hardware dearer would not re-
ceive much favor from the consumers of
those goods. Is it at all likely that the
consumers Of silver manufactures are
anxious to pay more for them?

Poor
Blood

When a horse Is poor in flesh,
a new harness won't give him
strength. IF a house is cold
new furniture won't warm 1t.
If your strength is easily ex-
hausted; work a burden;
nerves weak; digestion poor;
muscles soft; if you are pale
and worn out, the trouble is
with the blood. It Is not so
much IMPURE blood as
POOR blood. Pills won't
make this blood rich; nor will
bitters, nor iron tonics, any
more than a new harness will
give strength to the horse, or
new furniture will make a
house warm. For poor blood
