Dublin, Mich, June 29th.-To the
many women who suffer with weak
back and pains and tired feelings in
the small of the back, the experience
of Mrs. Fred Chalker of this place
will be interesting and profitable.
Mrs. Chalker had suffered very

although she had tried many things,
she could find nothing That would re-

of all she could do.
At last she CHANGED to read the

had been cured by a remedy called

thought she would try the same thing.
After the first two boxes had been
taken according to directions, she be-
gan TO feel some better, and she kept
on till at last she was cured.
Her pains are all gone, and she is
very grateful. She says: 'Dodd' 8

Nowadays, people who wake UP on
the morning Of the Fourth Of July,
amid the booming Of cannon, the noise
of trumpets, craclkle of guns and snap
pandemonium of free and generous
noise, seldom think of the years of

through which the Colonial Americans
passed before reaching the great day
when they could shout for freedom.

Harry Lee had proclaimed independ-

liberty or DEATH" but the time was
not quite ripe for that day Of all days
in American history, the Fourth of
July, 1916.
On that day, ffty-slx determined
patriots assembled in the state house
at Philadelphia. They had a purpose
in assembling, and that purpose was Of
grave import to the whole world. Thir-
teen colonies, with their three mil
lions of people knew what the purpose
was; they had sanctioned it, approved
1t, and what the fifty-six men were
about to do they were to do on be-
half of those three millions of people
who had fought, suffered, bled and
starved that it might be done. Every
body knew what was going to happen,
even the small boy who now makes as
much noise as he can, was there with
the crowds assembled to hear the
tocsin Of liberty.
A member of this great Congress of
the people arose, and stopping q mo-

"Huzza. We are free!" Then they

SAVED BY BRIGHT REPLY.
How Smart Midshipman Got Himself
Out of Scrspe.

On board a man-of-war bound to
San Francisco from China was
young midshipman named Walters.
He was a favorite with the officers,
and had in him the talent for making
fine officer The midshipmen on
board stood their watch forward, and
every hour IL was their duty to come
aft and write up the weather columns
of the ships log, showing the readings
OF the barometer and thermometer
and to heave the ships log to ascer-
tain her speed.
The captain, in company with the
officer of the deck, was walking the
weather side of the deck conversing
when Midshipman Walters came aft
to write up the log. The barometer, a
mercurial one, was hung In the cap
tain's cabin, and Walters, after having
read il, helped himself literally to the
captains sherry on the cabin side
board. In walking the deck the cap
tain happened to glance down the
cabin skylight and saw the midship-
mans proceedings. When Walters
came up on deck TO heave the log the
captain addressed him as follows:
How is the barometer, sir?"
Walters saluted and said: Stead
! lily rising. sir; steadily rising"
The captain then asked: And how
is the decanter, sir?"
Walters was taken abeck, but with
a steady voice replied Steadily
falling, sir; steadily falling"
This reply was too much for the
captain. and, bursting out laughing, he
said: Young man, your bright reply
has saved you from punishment; but

ter | beg of you not to consult the de-
canter as often as you do the barom-

death of Warren Thorpe. the Black
man township farmer, who was shot n
his own house Sunday, June II,
brought ought some things which look
queer. At the time, it was reported
that he shot himself, and the report
was generally believed, but certain
things pointed TO the death bein;
caused by some interested party who
must have fired the fatal shot There
were no powder marks on the face If
The dead man. and other circumstances
supported the theory that he was
murdered. The verdict the jury rem
dered is that the person who held the
pistol which killed Thorpe is unknoU II
10 them. The theory of the verdict IS
that there is much mystery in connec
ton with the death, but the officers dc
not believe Mrs. Thorpe is an object
of suspicion. If Thorpe did not kill
himself it is generally admitted that il
was some one else than Mrs. Thorpe.
