THERE is some consolation in the fact
that most of the scandals which have re-
Gently created commotion and suggested
the fear that our boosted progress was in
wrong direction, had their origin from
% to 30 years ago. More schemes and
tricks and steals through which the few
were slyly robbing the many have been
revealed and put an end to during the
past year or two than during any former
decade. Surely that day is better one
on which such things are disclosed and
ended than the day on which they began,
or any of the days through which they
were continued

Don't be Imposed Upon.

Foley Il Co, Chicago, originated honey
and tar as throat and lung remedy,
and on account of the great merit and
popularity of Foleys honey and tar many
limitations are offered for the genuine.
These worthless limitations have similar
sounding names. Beware of them. The
genuine Foleys honey and tar is in
yellow package. Ask for it and refuse
any substitute. 1t is the best remedy
for coughs and colds. Martin & Show

The fear which has found expression,
that the voters of Michigan will not be
made familiar with the details of the
primary election law in time to permit
them to make use of its provisions, has
little reason for existence. The first
action under the law, party registration,
does not take place until next April, and
long before the selected date all the de-
tails connected with that procedure will
be told and retold in every newspaper in
the state. If the voters will be as mind
ful of their duties in this respect as the
newspapers are sure to be, Michigan s
new primary election law will be given q
full and fair trial

THE Western express company was
fined $500 in the U. S. federal court
for trafiicking in liquor. The evidence
showed that the express company would'
on request of consumers, send orders to
breweries for beer in quantities. Ihe
court in its opinion said The
company, in allowing its agents to for
ward these orders, was not acting as
common carrier, but violated the internal
policy Of the state North Dakota where
the action was performed"

SERMON SERVED GOOD PURPOSE.
Sudden Delivery of Theology Made
Horse Stop and Think,

What was possibly the most con-
vincing sermon in the world was new
er preached; it was devoted to an
other use. Archbishop TAFT was driv-
ing along a country road porting over
the manuscript of his sermon as he
rode. His attention was attracted by
roar and clatter behind and turn
Ing round he saw a horse attached to
a huge lorrie careering down a hill
at a gallop. The animal was beyond
the control of its driver and was
making straight for the back of the
dogcart in which the archbishop was
riding. The runaway drew rapidly
nearer, but TAFT waited calmly. and,
as it Numbered up to the light trap,
he selected the psychological moment.
Then with all his force he flung the
many-leaved sermon full in its face.
The runaway stopped short to think it
over and as he did so his driver got
him in hand again and the situation
was saved. "The poor beast had never
had such a 'blatter' of theology be-
fore" was the archbishop's comment.
