in the Case addition.
Besides the DIR. j +. Suydam residence
which is about completed, w. e. VAN
kirk will build new house for himself
and has several more for others in con-
temptation
Jas. Morrison has the frame work all
completed for new house for Chas.
Spencer in the northeast part Of town
and has several more under considera-
ton.
l.. II Hayt has moved the frame work
OF the brick veneered residence he pur-
chased Of Francis King on to his lots
north Of the previous location and has
men busy at present putting the brick
work back on. He will remodel the
building somewhat and build large
porch in addition.
The moving was under the supervision
of A. Hodgskinson, who did most re-
markable job as the conditions of the
land were very bad for the moving of so
large a abuilding but it was accomplished
without breaking a pane of glass or
damaging the plaster to any great degree
Mr.. Hayt is very much pleased with the
manner in which the building was
moved.
L. A. Ely expects to build large new
porch onto his house on Superior-st
while w. w. Ferris has the remodeling
of his place across the river nearly com.
pleted.
Among the individual people who are
Building or expect to bnild this summer
are the following: Mrs. d II. Sullivan,
Duncan Cameron, three houses; w. J..
McVicker, Alma Manufacturing Co.,
two houses; Hall & Sharrar, two houses

The Alma Building q Loan Associa-
ton has two houses on Pine-st. that
were completed this week and are now
ready to occupy. These were built as
an investment and are offered for sale.

To the average person who merely
comes and goes from his business OF
occupation, very limited knowledge OF
the number of new buildings in course
of construction, or nearly completed, in
Alma, is a natural consequence. In
order to fully comprehend the extent of
the real building boom that is in full
sway here at the present time, one must
spent the greater portion of the day
strolling along the different streets in
every part of the village.
On one corner will be seen hand
some new residence nearly ready for
occupancy; farther on the carpenters
are TO be found busy putting up the
frame for another new house; still
farther down the street teams and men
will be found hard at work excavating
for what will in few months be the
home of one Of our citizens. This same
appearance of activity is to be seen on
nearly every street in Alma today.
Available or suitable locations for resi-
dence property cannot be longer obtained
in the central part OF the village and
new homes are being built at present
where only a short few years ago was
considered too far out to be desirable.
Now all has been changed. AS fast as
the town increases in population the
people must have homes and few
blocks farther out makes but little differ
ence.

her betrothed, Fred Best, of Detroit,
who has clerked in q drygoods store at

Zinn's popularity was evidenced by the
flowers for funeral offerings sent by
almost the entire community, while
threats OF violence were rife in case Best
should appear upon the streets.

AT present there are only two large
buildings in course Of construction or
contemplated this season. One OF these
is the American Asphalt-Mast Co.
plant near the sugar factory and the
other is the l. o. o. +. temple. The
American Asphalt-M Co.'s plant is
now ready to install the engines and
heavy machinery, the walls about com.
pleted and ready for the roof. Part Of
this building is only one story high W hile
the remainded is two stories, with solid
brick walls. The 1. o. o. +. temple
will be a very handsome building Of two
stories when completed. The excava-
ton and cellar walls were made some
time ago, but the work has now been
taken up again and will be rushed
through to completion at an early date
as possible. The upper story Of this
building will be used solely for lodge
purposes while the ground floor will be
rented for business enterprises. Geo. s.
Young is the contractor for both build
ings.
Perhaps the finest and most costliest
residence to be built in Alma this year
will be the one now in course OF con-
struction for Francis King, just north
of where the Cohoon house, which Mr..
King sold to l.. II. Hayt, was located on
State-st. This will be q large and
modern residence which will cost, in
connection with the stables and fitting
up Of the grounds. in the neighborhood
OF $20,0 The house will be brick
veneer, the main portion three stories
high, with IA rooms in all. 1t will be
heated throughout and electric lighted
while the interior finish will be the best
that money can purchase. The cellar
walls are of brick from the foundation
up and are now completed. Besides the
residence Mr.. King will build some very
handsome and commodious stables and
in every way make the place as desira-
BILE residence as possible. Henry
Green, of Grand Rapids, has the con-
tract for the building.
DIR. ]. +. Suyoam's new house on
Pine-st. is another fine modern residence
which will cost about $4,000. and will
be ready to occupy in very few days
s. r. Anderson designed this house and
put up the frame work while w f. Van
kirk and William Lusk have had
charge of the finishing of the interior.
This viii. be one Of the finest residences
in Alma when completed.
Among the contractors who have
under way Of agreements made for
building this season, G. II. Decker has
one house for Joseph Ray, one for him
self In the Ward & Hall addition, while
in connection with A. K. Mulholland
three more will be built in the Wood
ward addition. Mr.. Decker will also
put up q new house for s. d. Evans in
the Case addition.
II. III. Soule has the K. A. Hodgskin-

The Village Kicker Wants to Know What
Became of IL.

EDITOR RECoRD-Some six months
ago, IL my memory serves me right, the
citizens Of Alma presented the village,
through the common council, with a
handsome American flag, with the ex-
press understanding that new flag
staff be erected on the public building
that il might wave to the breeze 3l3 days
a year, or often enough to allow the
school children to get familiar with the
nations emblem.

Nothing is more certain within the
whole range of medical science than
that a course OF Peruna in early spring
time will perfectly and effectually pre-
vent or cure this almost universal al"
lection.
Everybody feels it in some degree.
A great majority are disturbed con-
siderably, while a large per cent OF the
human family are made very misera-

Peruna will prevent it If taken in
time.
Peruna will cure it if taken as di-
rected.
Peruna is the ideal spring medicine
of the medical profession.

every spring the blood is loaded with

the bowels and the proper circulation
of the blood.
