LAKE MINNETONKA

The lake front at Excelsior will
present an altered and much i'm
proved appearance this summer. New
docks have been built for the accom-
mediation of launches and sailing
craft, and the old ones have been re-
paired. It is proposed to build two
long docks for the exclusive use of
visiting launches. It is desirable to
have such docks, so that owners of
launches may feel free to tie up at the
Excelsior shore without the fear of
having their craft run into by steam
boats.
The old Blue Line pavilion has
been removed from it's former loca-
ton, and has been rebuilt and re-
modelled. It has been set UP on the
lake front just below the White
House. Workmen are employed in re-
painting the old building and fitting it
up in modern style. When completed
it will add greatly to the attractive
ness of the shore. 1t is the determina-
ton of the village council to allow no
small structures to be built along the
lake front which will detract from its
appearance The steamboats, Of Com
2mOdore Johnson's fleet will land at a
large dock, to be built between the
Excelsior casino and this rebuilt pa
vilion, and the navigation company
will construct broad walk from the
end of Water street past the pavilion
and connecting with the new dock.
F. E. Haywood, proprietor of the
Excelsior casino, has been making ex-
tensive alterations and improvements
in his building this spring also. He
will build a broad veranda and en-.
trance at the east of the casino, SINH
lar to the entrance now at the west
end. The building will be attractively
painted, and various improvements
are being made in the interior.

WHAT no YOU
THINK OF THIS?


The Milks' Emulsion Company Of
Terre Haute, Indiana, are out with an
offer to cure the worst case of stom-
ach trouble or Constipation in exist
ence, or money refunded, and to start
you off they agree to buy the first bot
tie for you, from your druggist, and
present it to you free Of charge. All
you have to do is to write and ask
them for an order on your druggist
for a free bottle, giving your name,
address and particulars of your case.
This looks to us like pretty good
proposition. The fact that all drug
gists handling Milks' Emulsion are re-
quested to guarantee every bottle they
sell, is a sure indication of merit.
Otherwise the Milks' Emulsion Co.
would soon go out Of business, and we
notice they have come to the front
very fast since placing Milks' Emul-
sion on the market one year ago.
