THE CIIUTES.
Chjcago's Famous Water Park Fur
nishes New Sensations.

No more wonderful pleasure resort
exists than Chieago,s famous water
park, "The Chutes.'l
Its fame is international. This sea-
son it offers two sensations which have
set the big City agog. One is "Elter, y
the Beautiful Mystery of the Lake, 4"
and the other King Humboldt IS Royal
Italian Band, led by Maestro francesca
Pozzi. The "Banda 1taliana Abruzzii
is an organization of forty skilled mu-
sicians, which created furore in Eu-
rope. 1t is touring the world and will
delight the Chutes patrons this summer.
"Elter,'' who is beautiful young
woman, emerges from the depths of the
lake and disappears beneath its waves
like a fabled nymph. Her marvellous
feat amazes and mystifes.
"ShoQting the Chutes'' over the
biggest artificial cascades in the world
is the favorite pastime of Chicago.
Shouting and laughing throngs descend
the glistening cascades with the speed
of the wind until their gay gondolas
splash in the lake and glide swiftly
forward on foam-crested waves to
placid harbor.
Charlevoix county herald., 1906-08-18

While Pozzi y big band fills the park
with majestic strains, delighted cele-
brants are whirled through mid-air at
marvellous speed; phantom cars fash
across the horizon laden with gaily at
tired children. and young women; mists
of opalescent spray cool the beautiful
park; its blue lake glistens and scin-
tillates under the glorious sun and
against the blue sky flutter and gleam
countless flags and yari-colored lights.
A more entrancing spectacle cannot
be Imagined than The Chutes, citadel
of beautiful pavilions, thronged with
happy people, animated by a thousand
gay activities, illuminated like a fairy
land and ringing with the melodies Of
its world-famed band.
Among it's unique DEVICES are the
Velvet Coaster, Aerostat Flying Ma
chimes, Radium Zoo, moving pictures of
the San Francisco Fire, Electric Thea
ire, troupe Of entertainers, Figure 8,
Toboggan, Giant Automatan, ,Katzenjam-
mer Castle, free Children s Playground,
Thousand Anamorphoses, Laughing Gal
lery, Helter SHELTER, Mammoth Carou-
sel, Mystic Rill, a Subterranean River,
Haunted House, Pendant Swings, and
thousand others. q
This Inatchless resort is Chicago g
favorite playground, Coney Island,
circus and world IS fair, all in one. No
visit to the big city is complete without
"seeing the Chutes.' Access to all of
its bewildering activities may be had
for ten cents. Street cars transfer pas.
sengers to The Chutes from all parts
Of Chicago for five cents.

HOT AND COLD WATER.
How tn Use These Remedies to the
Best Advantage.

How tn Use These Remedies to the
BEST Advantage.
Hot or cold water Is excellent as an
application for inflammation, conges-
tions or abrasions, but how many peo-
pie know which to apply ip particular
cases while awaiting the arrival Of
medical relief? Not many, and the mis-
takes made in some instances are lu-
dicrous,
Take the barber, for example, who
has cut his patrons face. He generally
washes the face with n towel soaked
in warm water. often pressing it right
into the injury, and then wonders why
the blood flows from the cut so freely
In ninety-nine cases out of q hundred
If he had used cold water, and the
colder the better, the blood would
have ceased to flow from the injury al
together, as the cold would have ten
dency to contract the openings in the
torn blood vessels. In all cases of such
cuts or abrasions very cold water will
at least reduce the amount of bleeding
If 1t doesn't stop it altogether, and yet,
singularly enough, boiling water will
have the same effect.
Water below the boiling point In.
creasas the flow, but above that de-
gree decreases 1t. In surface inflamma-
tions or congestions cold water ought
to be used, while If the condition is sit
uated below the surface hot water Is
necessary as an application because it
draws the blood toward the surface
and thus stimulates the circulation
through the part where it is most
needed.
In cases Of abscesses or pimples
with pus forming in them, but which
have not yet come to head, the secre
tion of pus can be rapidly increased
and the duration Of the annoyance
thereby decreased by applying hot wa
ter to them at frequent intervals.
Where the eye is inflamed or smarts,
after period Of eye strain, such as
night work often induces, hot appli-
cations are the things for relief, but
the water used should be gradually
allowed to cool off toward the end.
Tired eyes will invariably be rejuve-
mated by adopting this method of treat
ment, and many headaches resulting
from such condition may thereby be
prevented or cured.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

The Killer.


A thousand miles, from east to west.
] journeyed, on relentless quest.
I met him in the solitude
AS he his shaggy way pursued
lie swung his head In dazed surprise;
My bullet crashed betwixt his eyes.
/ took from him his great domain,
Connecting turquoise sky with plain;
Aye. canyon, crest and pinion shade.
The bowldered pass, the valleyed glade
All this from his possession tore
And set my heel. conqueror!

Before my fireplace laid 1t down.
Within four narrow walls It's spread
That eye may gloat and foot may tread.

Old Fashioned Roses.

They amt no style about 'em.
And they're sort o. pale an faded.
Yir the doorway here without 'em

With good 'eal blacker shadder

And the sunshine would look sadder
For their good old fashioned sakea

When they wuzn't any other
Less she found 'em up above 'em.
And her eyes afore she shut 'em

We must pick bunch and put 'em
In her hand when she wuz dead.
But, as 1 wuz a-sayin',
They amt no style about 'em
Very gaudy or displayin',

The report of Mr.. Garfield on
Standard Oil, its transmission to
Congress with a message from the
President, form distinct event III
our national history. People will
find it easy to believe that Stan
dard Oil secured $500, 900 a year
in rebates and that other methods,
iniquitious in themselves and from
the point of view of modern social
demands, have been in use. The
violations OF law in Missouri have
been confessed by its officers. When
H. II. Rogers ridiCuled a judicious
court of the United States govern
ment he threw down the gauntlet
to the American people. RoOse-
velt grasped the situation. The
courts demanded an answer from
Mr.. Rogers. He not only Obeyed;
he humbly confessed the breaking
of law. Tie President has sug-
gested by implication in his mes
sage, which accompanied Mr.. Gar
dcld's report, that the United
States government is greater than
Standard Oil, and the, people be,
lieve thh Ii IS The'answer of Mr..
-Rs-@fs to the message is lacking il
respect, but possibly he may be
taught to respect law and govern
ment. That the investigation viii
be pushed to completion may be
expected. It is time the Standard
Oil was brought to terms.-Eastor

The movement now being made
to call a special session of the Del
aware Legislature to elect United
States Senator to fill the vacancy,
is commendable and should be en-
tered into by every Republican
regardless of faction. To abide
by majority rule and the caucus
nominee whoever he is, must be
done before we can have harmony
in the party. There may have to
be some sacrifices, some bitter dis
appointments, but the only way to
get together is 10 get together and
bury differences. The people, the
rank and file are already grow
ing weary of the long factional
strife and can see nothing to be
attained by continuing the fight
longer. United the Republicans
can sweep the state; divided they
throw all they have gained to the
Democrats. We had doubts as to
whether this Legislature could
ever elect a Senator, having once
met and failed, but if it can be done
with harmonious results, then let
us fill the vacancy at once and get
together. The critical time has
come when our legislaturemen must
put party above personality and we
trust the movement now being
waged for an extra session will b
forthcoming of good results.

After a third of year of acrid
and, at times, hotly personal de-
bate, the United States Senate Fri
day passed q bill for Government
regulation of railroad traffic rates,
although Senator Foraker went on
record as saying that the bill, as
passed, was unconstitutional The
dnal vote was II TO ;, and this
alone is ample testimony to the
sweeping victory gained by the
President against overwhelming
odds, when he was even antago-
aized on many points by Senators
of his own political faith, and was
forced by stress of circumstances,
to seek aid from Democrats by their
voices and by their votes for and
on the various amendments to the
original bill.
All opposition, however, was
steadily met by the President with
unfinching courage, rare judgment,
keen perception and fine statesman

only a corporal 5 guard of three
Foreaker, Morgan and Pettus-
