Unquestionable Proof that Eff
feet of LaGrippe is Cured by
Dr.WHEELER'S NERVE VITALIZER

The number of physical wrecks resulting
from the La Grippe is truly alarming. The
peculiarly of the disease asserts itself after
the attack, by becoming seated in some of
the nerve centers, usually the brain. The
many remedies and methods of treatment by
physicians have little if any benefit. DIR.
Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer has proven to be a
specific, it cures every case A recent in
stance coming to our notice, IS that of Joseph
Lee, Entrican, Mich, who writes the fol-
lowing under date of Oct. 3Ist.
"I was Frustrated from the effects Of La
Grippe; during the first six months / was
treated constantly by two physicians without
benefit. then changed and was treated by
another during the six months following with
same result. continued to grow worse un-
Ill could not sleep day or night; my mind
was harassed by evil thoughts was frantic.
In this condition / commenced using DIR.
Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer; after taking one
bottle felt much better; took two more
and was restored to health. heartily en-
dorse DIR. Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer; for all
forms of nervous disease" Signed Joseph
Lee. Nerves are alike In all, you can be
sured as Mr.. Lee was.
II yon have not fully recovered from Ia
Grippe use this valuable medicine at once.
Your case u the same Is thousands Of otheu

The Governors Proclamation.
Commonwealth of Michigan,
Executive Office,
Lansing, March 10, 1897.

Commonwealth of Michigan
Executive Office,
Lansing, March 10, 1897.
To the Voters of Michigan
The legislature of this state, by a
practical unanimous vote, and without
party division has voted to amend the
constitution of this state, so that here
after the Attorney General shall re-
side at the capitol during his official
term and give all of his time and
strength to the duties of his office.
In return for this work they have
and five hundred dollars (S3, 500) a year
instead of eight hundred, which was
put IN the constitution nearly so years
ago, with the understanding as there
was then little for the Attorney Gener-
al to do, he could give nearly all his
time to his own business.
/ approve of this amendment, and
now that it has been submitted to you
for the purpose of determining wheth-
er you will ratify and approve that
which your representatives have al
ready done, desire to address you in
advocacy of this amendment, by using
the strongest language that / can COM
mand.
AS your Governor, chosen by you to
execute the laws, i am anxious to do So
to the best of my ability. But on a
moments reflection, you will see that
it is absolutely necessary, If any work
is to be done which has for its object
the defense of your rights and the
protection of your interests, that the
time of the Attorney General must be
taken up. His place is here at the
capitol. But it is wrong to ask that
this service be performed, unless some
provision is made for his pay. Unless
you, as voters of this state, are willing
to ratify this amendment, then one of
three things must follow: Either that
no attempt shall be made to protect
your interests, or that the Attorney
General must work practically for
nothing, or the custom be continued of
hiring outside attorneys and paying
them literally for doing the work
which you elect the Attorney General
to perform.
The simple fact is, as shown by the
official records, you have paid out for
this service, on an average, much more
per year than the amount named in
this amendment. What the state Of
Michigan has lost by reason of its re-
fuSaI to pay decent salary to q good
attorney, no man can tell; IN my
judgment IL aCould run into the mil
lions The proposed amendment
would cost the average taxpayer so
much less than cent a year that it
would be difficult to compute.
In the interest then, of good govern
ment, in the interest of economy, and
as one determined, so far as 1 can, to
protect and defend your rights, L ask
you to vote "Yes" on the proposition
to amend the constitution as submitted
to you. Very respectfully,
III. $. Pingree, Governor.

and the third gambling. The world
to-day needs just such words of warn

L. b. Sprague, the oldest resident of

ed a Miss Baker of the same place.

1853 he married Mary A. Bryce of Lynn

: Mr.. Sprague has made home with his
steps son for the past twenty years. He
leaves no kin but many friends who
mourn his departure. He was very pa
triotic and always expressed great
sympathy for the 'boys in blue" owing
perhaps largely TO the fact that his two
sons were soldiers in the civil war and
sacrificed their lives for the cause.
He was a strong Prohibitionist and q
consistent member of the Methodist
church. The funeral services took
place ut the Lynn school house on
Thursday, March 18th, aud the remains
inferred in the Lynn cemetery. Rev.

The friends of the late Il. Is. Sprague
wish TO thank the neighbors for their
kind assistance during the sickness and
burial of Mr.. SpragHe, and especially
to the choir who rendered such beauti-
full and appropriate music.

Outline of the Jud ciary C~oinmittee's
Measure to be Presented.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-A national
bankruptcy bill, similar in it's substan.
tial features to the Henderson.Culbert
son bill passed by the house last session,
will be reported to the house this week
by the judiciary committee. The bill
provides for both voluntary bankruptcy
and involuntary bankruptcy. by its
provisions any u may file a petition
and go into voluntary bankruptcy, ex-
cept corporations. The latter may be
forced into it, but not otherwise. Wage
earners, laborers and farmers cannot
be forced into it. All others are
subject to involuntary bankruptcy
for certain designated causes In
general these involuntary causes relate
to fraudulent conduct on the part OF
the bankrupt. The clause in past
measures providing that q man who
permits his commercial paper to go I'M
paid for 30 days shall be an involuntary
bankrupt is eliminated. The general
effect OF the bill is to discharge the
bankrupt of all debts after the estate
has been administered and it has been
found that there has been 10 fraudulent
conduct. 4.s4

NEW CODE OF RULES.

Speaker Reed VIII spring 1t on the
House After the Holidays.
WASHINGTON, Dec. IA new code
Of rules for the house of representatives
will be presented by Speaker Reed and
his associates on the committee on rules
after the holiday recess. At present
the house is proceeding under the rules
Of two years ago, these having been
adopted pending the framing Of new
rules. The present purpose is to re-
adopt the old rules without important
changes. Representative Barrett Of
Massachusetts is to be given a hearing
at an early day on amendments which
he proposes. One of these seeks to give
the minority larger rights than it en-
joys at present in presenting amend.
ments and substitutes, and in
securing time during debate. At
present the rules are very
strict and individual members have
little latitude in securing additions to
the appropriation bills. Mr.. Barrett's
extended service as speaker Of the Mas.
sachusetts house OF representatives
gives added weight to the changes he is
urging, although it is not expected that
they will be favorably considered by
the committee. In view of the pub
lished report that Mr.. Reed was fran.
ing a bill designed to cut of riders
to appropriation bills originating in the
senate. it is stated by one familiar with
the speakers views that he has not
contemplated any such action, and that
the house could not do SO If it would.
When such amendments come over
from the senate, the house is obliged to
act on them, by concurring or non.
concurring, and it is said that this
action could not be changed SO as tC
abridge the rights of the senate.
