the purpose of hunting any kind of
game.
The fact is that dogs can be used
for hunting all game except deer, and
that during the open season for deer,
from Nov. 18th to Both, no dogs can
be used for hunting any kind of
game. In other words. keep out of
the woods with dogs during the open
season for deer and at other times
use dogs if you want to hunt small
game.

WINS TWO CLOSE GAMES
Grand Rapids Team Plays
Twenty One Innings.

All eyes were on Webster, the Ind
Ian flrst oaseman, as he stepped to the
plate 10 the last half of the twelfth
inning in the game with Berlin last
week Wednesday. Almost the first ball
he banged out for single. Then Capt.
Anderson walked up to the plate, and
scarcely had the crowd settled down
to watch him when he drove the ball
out for two Dagger, advancing Web
ster to third. Then came Ernst.
Would he fan or would he do his usual
turn at tie stick, and score Webster?
Scarcely had the fans settled their
hopes on the speedy left gardner, when
he sent out line drive that ended
the game, with the Indian counted.
This was the sensational end of one
of the best games ever witnessed
on the local diamond. Twelve innings
had been played and neither team
had been able to score. Not that the
runs had been prevented by brilliant
or spectacular plays by either team,
but simply because both aggregations
played errorless base ball. The boys
were getting tired. Byers alone re-
fused to weaken. His pitching was
phenom eneal, and only three small hits
were recorded against him. He seemed
stronger in fact when he took the
l.
some of the other innings s, and the
first three men up were BANKED. This
game was league ball. The support
given each twirler was excellent, and
Grand Rapids won in the sensational
finish, only through its superior stick
work

ITS YOUR KIDNE VS..
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your Troubles
Grand Rapids Citizen Shows How to
Cure Them,


Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that
it is only muscular weakness: when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kidney
disorders. That is just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Bright's disease. The best remedy
to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. 1t cures
all ills which are caused by weak or
diseased kidneys. Grand Rapids

WHEN YOU CAN
USE DOGS IN WOODS

From the number of inquiries re-
ceived by County Clerk George Davis
there seems to be a general misun-
derstanding of the revised game laws
so far as they relate to the use of
dogs for hunting. The section relat-
ing to this matter is rather awkwardly
worded and has led many to conclude
that in those counties where there
was an open season for deer it was
unlawful to use dogs at any time for

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh which is nothing. but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
