TO COLONIZE THE up
Upper Peninsula Land Company
Has Been Formed with Capi-
tai stock Of $75O,OOO.

The Upper Peninsula Land Co.,
with a capital stock Of $750,OOO, has
been organized under the laws OF
Michigan to dispose OF the property
consisting of ], 200, 900 acres acquired
from the Detroit, Mackinaw and
Marquette land grant commission.
The officers Of the company are: W.
G.. Mather, OF Cleveland, chairman;
F. J. Merriam, Detroit, secretary
and general manager; R. E. Mann,
of Cleveland, treasurer, and r. T..
Boughton, OF Detroit, assistant gen.
eral manager.
The lands acquired by the COM
pany lie along the lines OF the Du-
luth, South Shore Il Atlantic and
the 500 roads in the upper penin-
sula.
"It is the intention OF the COM
pany to open up about 200, 900 acres
of this land for settlement" said
Mr.. Merriam, ''and that will be done
at once. The company is now hav.
ing tho land purchased carefully re-
examined for the timber on it. When
this is done, a distribution, or at
least a subdivision of the land will
be made and the land now in shape
to turn over to settlers will be
colonized. The timber will be cut
off the other and such as is good for
agricultural purposes will be utiliz-
ed. 1t is not generally known, but
it is fact that in the upper penin-
sula, from range % to the 500, the
killing of frosts are fewer and later
than right around Detroit. This is
due to the moisture of the lakes.
There is as good land in the tract
purchased as there is in the state of
Michigan, and anything can be
grown on it that can be grown any
where in O moderate climate. No
better fruit than is raised in the
upper peninsula can be grown any
where. / have spent fifteen years
in that country and know every
foot of it, so am in a position to
know whereof l speak. Had / not
been thoroughly equipped with this
information / never would have at.
tempted to raise the $1,000 600
necessary to make this deal a go.
1t is going to be hard work TO get
the matter into shape, but the ad-
vantages of soil and conditions are
so manifest to anyone who will in
yestigate them that l do not an
ticipate much difficulty in getting
the right class of people in there.
The land OF the company is in many
places splendidly adapted for graz
ing purposes and the pastures in
that country never dry up. There
will be 81 900, 900 Of bonds issued by
the company.
II have not heard anything be-
yound what / saw in the newspapers
regarding the formation Of a 81 900,
600 company to acquire the re-
mainder OF the land grant property,
but / would not be sorry to see such
thing go through. 1t would stir
things up and aid in making the
upper peninsula one OF the most
prosperous portions OF Michigan
aud would add materially to the
greatness OF the state. / believe
that Michigan in the next ten years
will make strides that will astonish
the world.
When asked regarding the mining
features of the property acquired,
Mr.. Merriam said that was o matter
that still has to be carefully investi.
gated, but intimated that the
Peninsula Land Co. will get all
there is out of the property ac'
quired.

A SOOTHING FAD.

L find 1t is very soothing to keep a

banite at a New York luncheon, ac-'

THE NEW FIGURE.
The Obliging Servant of Fashion to
Undergo Another Change.


It seems that woman's form, which
has always lent itself obligingly, joy
fully, to the whims of fashion, is again
to undergo a change, says the Inter-
Ocean. The fashionable figure of the
present season is quite different from
Its immediate predecessor.
1t is bit doubtful if the new figure
will inspire sculptors, poets, painters;
but of course that is minor consid-
Grafton. Fashion and art cannot al
ways be expected to go hand in hand.
OF more importance is the fact that
dressmakers' models-young women
whose business it is to show off beau
tjful costumes on a fashionably cor
rect figure-are now in training to ac-
duire the new curves, or rather lack
of curves, needful to their role and
the education of customers, and that
corset makers on both sides of the At
lantic are working overtime in order to
be ready to meet the demand always
created by any change of figure.
Some experts shrug their shoulders
skeptically and pronounce the new
figure stiff. Other who to
some extent share this opinion, hasten
to add that. stiff or not, every woman
who would be thought fashionable will
be cultivating it in less than three
months, basing their prediction, of
course, on what woman has always
done in the past. Said one:
Whether fashion sends the waist
line up to the armpits or down half
way over the abdomen. OF insists that
there shall be no waistline at all, she is
servilely obeyed. The hour-glass fig
| ure has had It's turn as well as the
slab-like variety, whose curves are he
roically converted into straight lines
and woman has never rebelled, no mat
ter how much she may have suffered. "
| Coming, as it does, at the time when
woman has only just mastered the
| problem of how to bring her waist line
far down in front, the change of figure
| is all the more interesting, for the rea-
son that, apparently, it leaves the
waist line to take care of itself. APP
parently, at least, there is no attempt
at tight lacing.
| Fashions incentive to model and re-
model the feminine figure into many
and Numerically opposed shapes is the
keen desire for something new, some
thing different, implanted in every
| breast, and her chief aid in the work,
as everybody knows, is and always has
been the corset.
At first this aid. called a girdle, was
| little more than a straight or curved
band of varying width, worn usually
] outside the clothing and giving a slight
support to the figure without compress
