LLIOnA,RE' POOR STOMACH

The worn-out stomach of the overfe
millionaire is often paraded in the public
prints as horrible example of the evils
attendant on the possession of great
wealth. But millionaires are not the
only ones who are afflicted with bad
stomachs. The proportion is far greater
among the toilers. Dyspepsia and indi-
gestion are rampant among these people
and they suffer far worse fortunes than
the millionaire unless they avail them
selves of a standard medicine like Green's
August Flower. which has been favor
tie household remedy for all stomach
troubles for over thirty-fve years Aug
ust Flower rouses the torpid liver, thus
creating appetite and insuring perfect
digestion. 1t tones and vitalizes the en-
tire system and makes life worth living,
no matter what your station. Trial
bottles 25c; regular size 75c. At all

STANTON ELECTRI NEWS.

The Stanton Clipper of last week had
the following; A rousing meeting was
held at Palo last Friday afternoon to
take the initiative in a movement to
secure an electric railroad from Ionia to
that place. There were over two hun
dred present, all business men and farm
ers from the surrounding country. A
delegation was present from Ionia. The
from Grand Haven to Detroit is COM
pleted to construct branch northeast
of Ionia to Palo, Crystal Lake, Sumner,
Alma and on to Saginaw. The through
line east and west is now completed
from Detroit to Pontiac and Grand
Haven to Grand Rapids, The COM
pletion of the gap from Grand Rapids
to Pontiac is being agitated, in fact a
little work is now being done near
Saranac. aud some venture the opinion
that the gap will be closed by the end
of the present year.
At all events it is safe to presume that
no branches will be built until the main
line is completed. There are numerous
airline branches, or "hot-air" branches.
being agitated, but no one appears to
know what they are talking about. The
Ionia- Palo- Crystal line appears to us to
be the most feasible. 1t would open up
a rich agricultural district that is not
touched by any railroad.
At the Palo meeting it was intimated
that every foot of the right of way be-
tween Ionia and Palo would be donated,
with exception of across one or two
farms, and fund was startled for the
purpose of making the survey. We
understand the surveyors are now work
ing on the route. Ionia is waking up
ard it is evident that if branch" is
built north it will be built from that
point

Some information about the workings
OF the new law affecting minors in the
pool rooms, etc.
1.-The new law, prohibits all minors
under the age of II in the pool rooms
and bowling alleys, and all minors, of
whatsoever age, who are attendants at
school. There has been some trouble
with some pool rooms, but the law will
be rigidly enforced. The general saloon
law, also prohibiting the presence of all
minors in saloons will be enforced and
we will keep all persons under 81 years
OF age out of such places"

FIFTY thousand more children i'll the
public schools of Michigan as the result
of recent state legislation, is of far more
importance than many matters more
persistently paraded. The value to the
state to such a gain, especially when the
source of its greater part is considered,
cannot be computed in dollars and cents,
but it will be noted by the people of
Michigan as whole, with a degree of
satisfaction that could attend very few
incidents i'll state affairs.

EDUCATIONAL SCORING TEST

The following letter explains itself;
"The February Educational Scoring
Test, held under the auspices of the
State Dairy aud Food Department, will
be held in the county building, Grand
Rapids, Michigan, on Wednesday, Feb
ruary 28th. Butter and cheese should
be shipped to arrive not later than
February eth. No samples will be ac-
copied that arrive later than this. This
rule must he strictly adhered to, as it is
necessary to have the butter and cheese
in place to begin the scoring early
Wednesday morning. There is only one
test besides the February test to complete
the first year when awards of medals
and diplomas will be made. This test is
doing very much to advertise Michigan
butter and cheese and no manufacturer
of these products can afford to neglect
this means of trying to better the quail
ity and increase the uniformity of cur
dairy products.

THE STUPENDOUS FORTUNE
WE SPEND FOR LIQUOR

According to the figures furnished
by the government Bureau of Stats.
tics, there are consumed in. the Uni
ted States in one year about forty
million barrels of beer, ninety EIGHT
million gallons Of proof spirits, and
thirty million, five hundred thousand
gallons Of wine. These drinkableS,
sold at retail, take out Of the pockets
of consumers in single twelve month
the sum of 81, 455, 119, 1858. It's a good
deal of money, and one Is tempted to
consider what it could accomplish if it
were put to really useful purposes in
stead of being practically thrown away.
1t would provide 5000 families,
$500, 600 peOple-more than the en-
tire population of the states of New
Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont,
Maine. North Dakota and Montana
with comfortable homes, clothing and
provisions for twelve whole months.
TO each family it would give $3.50 for
provisions, $50 for clothing, $50 for
shoes, $40 for newspapers, magazines
and books, $50 for church and chari-
table purposes, and would build for
each family house costing $500,
with $3.50 to furnish it-thuS beStOw-

ing upon each one of the half million
families $2380, and leaving balance
OF 1884, 10000 to erect 52,8l8 chur-
ches, each costing $4,000.
It Is practically impossible for the
human mind to grasp so enormous a
sum OF money, but recognition Of its
magnitude may be rendered more easy
by comparing with it certain other ex-
penditureS which are made for the
everyday necessarieS of life. For in
stance, the people of the United States
in year spend $500, 600, 900 for meats
and 5000, 900, 600 for breadstuffs. They
pay out $500, 900, 900 for cotton and
worSted goods, for wearing apparel
and household use. Boots and shoes
cost them S261, 900, 900 in the same
length of time. For iron and steel
they spend $3.50, 200, 900; for sugar
and molasSes 1925, 200, 900; and for
tea, coffee and chocolate, $169, 900, 900.
1t will be noticed that no two of these
items, which represent the chief ex-
penseS of the nation, equal in sum the
total expenditure for liquors, the
meats and breadseuffs together
amounting to only 81, ,26O, 900, ,OOO.-l

Gov. Vardaman and Unlimited HOLDINGS.

Some of the newspapers of the state
are criticiSing Gov. Vardaman for ex.
pressing his disapproyal of that sec.
tion of the code chapter on corpora
tionS that gave to corporations and
SyndicateS almost unlimited holdings
in the pine lands of Mississippi. They
also criticiSe the legislature for up
holding the governor position.
1t is easy to find fault with public
official when in the discharge of his
duty, especially if one is in a fault
finding mood and this also applies in
a double sense to the legislature.
little reflection will convince any
thoughtful mind that unlimited hold
ings of the lands of any part of the
state is not best for the public good
and would be in the interest of the few
rather than the many. Over a quarter
or century ago the United States
government laid down the mandate
that no corporation or individual could
enjoy the right of unlimited holdings
as applied to the public domain, but
that it should be held for actual set
tiers and in bodies not to exceed I6O
acres and Mississippi is only following
the lead OF the United States in pol
icy that all now concede to be right.
We want the virgin forests of the
state to be preserved as much as pos
'ible for native MissiSsippians. 1t GER

Losses In the Earthquake Belt.

1t is gratifying TO be Informed that
the greater number Of insurance COM
panies will promptly pay their losses
in California. In this portion of the
South, The Mississippi Home Insur-
ance company has paid it's losses for
twenty.one years, and it had losses in
the Yazoo City fire, where three
fourCI1s of the town was destroyed. 1t
has never had any earthquake losses,
and its friends hope it never will. 1t
is careful in taking risks, and is Stron-
ger than ever. Thomas & Hoffa are
the Grenada agents.
