WHAT IS THE GRIP?
It is Certainly Most Mysterious Dis
ease, But It's Real Cause Is
Clearly Explained.

Investigation has shown that nearly
every familyin the city has had at least
one of its members attacked by the grip
but it seems to be coming in a different
form this year than ever heretofore
Men and women complain more of
nausea, pains in the arms, limbs and
about the back and a general lack of
appetite and ambition.
Now,aH this proves clearly just where
the cause of the grip is located. Have
you ever seen a sewer or drain cIogged
up after a heavy rain? 1t is precisely
TINS way with the grip. The kidneys get
cIogged up and the poisonous acids
which should pass from the system are
thrown back until finally they get into
the blood and so poison the whole body.
Read what the eminent DR.. Hamilton
mas TO say upon this subject: 1T is
clear, says he, that in order to drive
grip and similar pOisons from the sys-
tenn it is only necessary to open the
sewers; in other words, to put the kid
neys IN perfect working order so that
they will carry the poisons away in
stead of allowing them to clog up and
ruin the blood, and, unfortunately this
as not altogether an easy thing to do.
There is, so far as the medical pro-
fessIon and science know, but one dis
covery that Will quickly and effectually
open up the kidneys and at the same
time soothe them. That discovery.
Which has cured so many thousands
OF men and women; which is keeping so
many in perfect health today, and which
is used so universally the world over is
Warmers Safe Cure. 1t is recommended
and used by the highest medical au-
thorities both abroad and in America.
1t can be taken by the most aged per-
son and the tiniest child with beneficial
erect, for it is perfectly pure and harm
less. Prof Boyer of Germany, Dr. Will
lam Edward Robson of England and
DR.. Gum of New York are all promi-
nent men who speak in the highest
T
any SYMPTOMS of the grip, let me advise
you to act promptly, for you will find
that Safe Cure will relieve you quickly
and put you on the road to health

ANN ARBOR STUDENTS
Rebel Against a Decree Hostile to
Sweaters in the Latin Glass.


Ann Arbor, Mich, March 19.-Stu-
dents in the Latin department of the
University of Michigan are in open re-
volt.
The cause is that their instructor,
Professor Kelsey, has issued a decree
against the wearing Of sweaters by his
class.
Probably twO-thirds of the male stu
dents wear sweaters, and in cOnse-
quence of the opposition they have
manifested, it is probable the decree
will not be enforced.
This order is only an evidence of the
reform" wave now prevalent at Ann
Arbor. 1t is viewed by some. as a nat
ural sequence of the anti-drinking ag-
itation and the efforts of "coeds" tc
prohibit the use of tobacco on the cam
pus.
A petition for this latter regulation
WILL it is believed be laid before the
regents at their next meeting.
The anti-liquor fight is rapidly reach
ing a focus. 1t is said that in the next
issue of Frozen Truth, the official organ
of the Anti-SaloOn league, there Will
appear the names of all students fre-
quenting saloons. This drastic meas
ure is warmly opposed by the majority
of students, and it is asserted that the
Wrinkle, the representative college mag
azine, will follow such publication by
making public the names of the spot
ters' for the league, thus bringing them
into ridicule before the whole student
body.

NOT AFRAID OF SNAKES.
EGRattlesnake Pete" and Jim Bancroft
to Engage in a Novel Contest.

Gruber of this city, better known as
"Rattlesnake Pete" has been chal-
lenged to a rattIesnake contest for the
championship of the world by Jim
Bancroft, an enthusiastic snake man
just in from the wilds of the wooIly
Texas, who calls himself the greatest
Texan snake charmer.
Pete has accepted the challenge and
has posted $50 forfeit with the sporting
editor of a local paper. Pete has a
wide reputation for fearless handling of
the most dangerous rattlers.
Not long ago he participated in a
snake meat banquet at Denver, Colo,
where reptiles were served up in var
iOus styles and eaten with great appar-
ent relish by a select coterie of snake
fanatics while the pieces of flesh Wrig-
gled on their plates.

its members by means of dances, which

shortly after the formation of the asso-
