How Yeast Works,

The growth of the yeast plant Is So rapid that its individual cells can be seen under the microscope to spring up as buds upon the parent cell and to grow to full size. These presently give or buds themselves that expand n Ike manner. In the case of the yeast plant the coils remain attached to each other and thus form branches Of elon' gated cells fNeG end to end. In other cases the buds drop od, so that the plant never takes any definite shape but remains as a mass of free cells, If new cell be formed every minute by each of the cells present you may calculate the number that will be pro duccd in an hour. Thus at the end ot the first minute there win bc two, in two minutes four, in three minutes eight. and so on.

There are few diseases that iuflicl uOre torture than rheumatism and there is probably no disease for which such a varied and useless lot of remedies have been suggested. To say that it can be cured IS, therefore, a bold statement to make, but Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which enjoys an extensive sale, has mel with gIeat success iu the treatment oi this disease.

JEFFERSoN'S BIRTHDAY

The celebration O, the birthday of Thomas Jefferson throughout the Unit ed States today by democratic political organizations causes the thought to arise that it is too bad that a political party has been permitted to spprOpri- ate so much of the glory that attaches to the name and memory of this great man. Jefferson was the founder ot the democratic party, it is true, but his fame rests, like that oI Washington and otLjucolu, upon a broader foundation than is afforded by any political organ izatioU.

feature is an element in the indetemin-
ate sentence scheme, and furnishes the
reason for the indeterminate sentence;
and neither the board nor the governor
appears TO be disturbed by any misgiv-

TO one of the two colOred boys who were
sentenced TO ten years Imprisonment by
Judge West of the Ingham circuit three
years ago for placing Instructions in the
way OF passenger train the judge
joining in the recommendation for the
boys release. In the case of Thomas

ment for completely in the Grand Rapids

ton exclusively upon the governor, Nc
Garry's otfense having been in violation
of his duty a. n public ofiicer--an attor-
ney at the bar. Accordingly, the petit
tions for his parole, which Ionia attor-
neys are sending broadcast over the state
with appeals for signatures, are addressed
TO the governor. Not a great number
of them, however, have been received
at the executive office, and a consider
able proportion of those that have ap-
peared are unfavorable TO Mr.. McGarry's
hopes, one from the sheriff Of an
adjoining county expressing the feeling
that McGarry is quite in his proper
place now.

There has been in many of the counties

it be declared invalid by the supreme
court, any boys SO committed would
have TO be returned. Such decision
has now been rendered by Judge Hop

at Battle Creek who had been called
upon TO try the case of a young girl
charged with larceny, as II juvenile

refused 70 act because he believed the
