A NEWLY FOUND ART.
Magnetic Healing as APP
piled to the Curing
Of Diseases.

The advent of Madame De Boushaw
into our midst several weeks since has
been the subject of much discussion for
some time past by persons of all classes,
and as people learn daily of the seem
ingly miraculous cures performed by
this gifted lady, a few words at this
time may not be out of place.
Madame De Boushaw is no clariavoiant
or faith healer and should not be classed
with the so-called Wonderful travelling
doctors" Her cures are not made in
day, but when you are cured by this
lady your ailment never returns. As
proof of this take Mrs. o. w. Sexton,
of Chilston, who is now spending a few
days in Owosso and stopping at The
Merell. A year ago last May Mrs. Sex;
ton came to Madame De Boushaw
broken in health to-day well, sound
woman and says she cannot say too
much in the Madame's behalf. Also one
of our own esteemed citizens, Mrs. H.
Harvey, East Mason St., says Madame
De Boushaw has done for me what all
physicians have failed to do and am
now on the high road to health, what !
never expected" These statements
come from people we cannot doubt and
are not to be made light of. Others who
have applied to Madam De Boushaw for
help have gone to their homes with
praises for her wonderful cures and
have written to her of their complete
return to health.
Reader, are you sufferer? Go and
see the Madame in the parlors at The
Merell and trust your case in her hands.
Ii there is hope at all she will tell you.
Don't let the advice of those who know
nothing of her ability keep you away.

A dispatch from Durand to the Detroit
papers says: A. j. Kellogg, lawyer and ed
itor, and K. A. Cross, pastor of the M. K.
church, had war of words yesterday after
noon in the Shiawassee county bank. 1t is
alleged that the former called the latter a
liar, and that the minister retorted by call
ing Kellogg gentleman. The editor says
he had disagreement with Cross over a
year ago. Since then, his wife withdrew
from active service in the church. She
commented on the minister's self glorifca-
ton over the outcome of the recent encount-
er with Editor Dukesmith and said that she
thought it uubecoming. She asked him for
letter last Sunday and alleges that it was
refused. Mr.. Cross says he was attending
to his own business In the bank when Kel-
logg entered and began his onslaught. He
says he denied the accusations and was
called liar. He says he could not give
Mrs. Kellogg letter, as application must
be made i'm writing. He says he simply
thanked Mrs. Kellogg last Sunday for talk.

The Wool Industry.

When Michigan farmers are told by the
advocates of the free coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to 1 that the so-called present
gold standard of currency is the cause of all
their troubles they should bear in mind that
the destruction of the wool growing indus.
try was not the result of our monetary sys.
tenn but directly attributable to the placing
of wool on the free list. Since the enact.
ment of the democratic tariff of 1894, the
promotion of sheep husbandry has been a
difficult problem. The woods of Australia,
Africa and South America are produced at
small cost and under the provisions of the
tariff act of 1894, are admitted free of duty.
The wide difference in the market price of
Michigan wool before the protective duties
were removed and after, will show the ben
eft OF protection to the wool growers of this
state. In July. 1892, the market price of
Michigan Xxx wool was 90 and 30 cents; in
December, 1894, after wool was made free
it was II AID lS cents and now is as low as
10 and Is cents.
When wool brough. all the way from 20
to 30 cents pound, we had the same stand
ard of currency that prevailed in 1894 and
1895 and prevails today. Therefore the
drop In the price of Michigan wool cannot
have any relation to the so-caled gold stand
ard. Restore protection to wool and within
a year prices will 20 up and Michigan farm
ers will receive 25 cents instead of ~ cents
for their wool. Kalamazoo Telegraph.

The dispatches from st. Louis are to the
effect that the money plank OF the Indiana
republicans seems to be generally regarded
as about the proper one to be incorporated
in the national platform. 1t is: 1--WE are
firm and emphatic in our demand for honest
money. We believe that our money should
not be inferior to the money of the most en-
lightened nations on earth. We are UNI
alterably opposed to every scheme that
threatens to debase or depreciate our cur
rency. We favor the use of silver as cur
rency, but to the extent only and under
such regulations that its parity with gold
can be maintained, and in consequence are
opposed to the free, unlimited independent
coinage of silver at ratio of 16 to l."

Saginaw Herald: The administration of
the Office of auditor general by Hon. Stan
ley w. Turner has been such as to COM
mend itself to every person IN the state
familiar with the onerous duties of the
position. Mr.. Turner, however, is not a
candidate for reelection. o. G. Tompkins,
of Lansing, is in the race for the nomina-
ton. Mr.. Tompkins is well known through
out the state and has hosts of friends every
where. He is admirably qualified for the
Office to which he aspires, and his nomina.
ton seems reasonably assured. So gener-
ally is Mr.. Tompkins' fitness for this Office
recognized throughout the state that up
wards of sixty republican newspapers, rep
reseDting between forty and fifty counties,
have thus early endorsed his candidacy for
the nomination for auditor general. Meth
