Shadow Of Herself
Stomach Was Too Weak
to Retain Food
A Complete Cure Effected by
Hoods SarsaparilIa
Now Enjoying the Best Of Health,
With Digestion Perfect.

"My mother was subject to sick head
aches and indigestion for over year.
She was unable to stand for any length
of time, and was obliged to stay in a dark
room as she could not bear The light. She
had no appetite whatever and herstomach
was 80 weak she could not retain what
food she did eat. She also had severe
pains in her head. She suffered SO much
that she became but the shadow OF her
self. One day happened to read tes-
timonial about Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t
Sounded SO Truthful
I persuaded her to try this medicine.
Before finishing the first bottle there was
an improvement in her condition. She no
longer threw up her food and her head
ache was not as severe. She took in all
four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparlla and
several boxes of Hoods Pills and rega ned
her weight. She is now enjoying the best
of health. Her digestion is good and she
can eat almost anything she wishes. She
is AZ years old and says she feels as well
as when she was IS. Hoods Sarsaparilla
made complete cure in her case"

Disparaging illusions to Judge
Reads having been drafted into sell
vice have been heard, but the Wind
sor Journal, which has stepped into
line for Read for congress, makes
out very good military record for
its candidatc-in fact, a first, class
one. 1t appears that Judge Read
was Il minor when the war broke
out. He tried to enlist in the sum-
mcr of 1861, but was percmptorlly
forbidden by his father. In the fall
of 1861, not yet nineteen years of
age, he again tried to enlist, and
was again prevented by his father,
who felt himself dependent upon
this son, the oldest of nine children.
After lie had passed his twentieth
birthday, the draft of 1868 occurred,
and refusing the offer of his father
to release him by the payment of the
communication fee of $500, he went
to the front as Il private in the ranks
of the end Vermont Vols. He was
with his regiment at Rappahanock
Station, Mine Run and on other
battlefields, where the old Vermont
brigade gained imperishable reno wn.
He was severely wounded in the
bloody struggle of the Wilderness in
May, 1868. and bears the marks of
that battlefield to this day. Late in
1861, he was transferred to the Vet
eran Reserve Corps by reason OF his
wounds, and was finally mustered
out of the service in August, 1865.

AT THE PARK THURSDAY.

Englishmen Will Hold their Eighth An
nual Picnic-Addresses by the Rev.
John Sweet and E. w. Hunt.
The Englishmen of Shiawassee county
will hold their eighth annual picnic next
Thursday at Caledonia Park. Ample
amusement is to be expected from the Eng
years experience counts for anything neith-
er Tom Horsman, Rev. f. w. Hunt or in
fact the majority of the englishmen present
ever consent to be left out when the game
is on and incidentally when they are at it
there is fun for the by ISLANDERS.
Seriously however there is no reason why
the picnic this year should not boast of an
attendance equal to the total aggregate at
tendance of past years for since the last
picnic both the American and the English
nations have awoke in an almost wonder
full manner to the fact that they more than
any other two nations on earth are in reality
and ought TO be brothers. 1t is to be hoped
that the friendly spirit toward old England
which has received such an impetus during
the last few months may be still further ad'
yanced and that the understanding and con
fidence between these two greatest and Eng
lish speaking races may increase with thu
coming years.
The spirit aroused by Englands actions
during the war should be sufficie mt to en-
sure large crowd next Thursday. Rev
John Sweet and Rev. e. w. Hunt will ad
dress the people on subjects peculiarly ap
propriate to the occasion.

Odd Fellows at the Park Tuesday.

The second annual picnic Of the Maple River
Odd Fellows Picnic Association was held at
Caledonia Park Tueday with fair attendance.
This picnic association includes the l. o. O. F
lodges OF Clinton, Gratiot Saginaw and Shia-
wassee counties. In this territory are forty.five
subordinate and twenty-five Rebekah L.
o. o. F. lodges The association is young
however and all of these lodges have not
Ms yet taken an interest in the idea Those who
have attended the two picnics already given
believe in the success of the movement. Owing
to the lack of full understanding of the plans
and perhaps a failure to talk 1t up enough
the number in attendance was much smaller
than had been expected though there were prob
ably between four and five hundred persons in
attendance.
The meeting ives called to order by the presi.
dentMr Elmer G. Smith, OF Elsie, and the pro.
gram of exercises was carried out. The first
numbers were a selection by the band and then
an ode sung by the Rebekahs, after which
prayer was offered by T. E. Heddle An ad
dress Of welcome was then given by O. L.
Sprague instead Of by the mayor as had been
advertised. Mr.. Sprague in opening his address

come he gave by reminding them OF what a
large proportion Of the population is enrolled
among the membership of some of the various
benevolent organizations Of the city The regu
lar program was then continued by recitations
by little Misses zada Rose and Frances Able
and by Mi ss Ethel Nudge though in between
these recltations the band played one number
and two numbers were assigned to the quartette
composed Of A j. Stevens, q. T. Reynolds, ROY
Knapp and M. d. Roth. The latter took the
audience by storm and were heartily encored
both times. A song by Miss Helen McCrea
piano solo by. Prof. Henry Carter, OF Detroit
another selection by the band were given before
the two speeches, the one by Rev 1. N. Shilline
OF Chaplin and the other by T. E. Heddle of Per
ry, were given. Past Grand Master Slater had
been expected and neither Of these gentlemen
had prepared speeches but their extemporane.
Gus Efforts we're highly appreciated. Among
other idras brought out, Mr.. Shilling compared
the work OF the lodge with that Of foreign mis-
