Are Looking on Bright Side.

One year ago last Wednesday
was the date of the hard freeze
which caused so much damage in
southern Michigan. Fruit grow
ers have taken advantage this
year Of the lesson learned at that
time. Everyone is hustling to
get the crop to market and no
one is waiting for higher prices.
Of course prices this year are
much higher than last year any
way, owing to scarcity of fruit,
but it is safe to say that hence
forth crops will be harvested and
marketed when ready as far as
possible.
Notwithstanding the fact that
many thousands of acres of fruit
trees were killed last year, far
mers are making preparation to
set a larger acreage than ever
next year. Instead of being dis
heartened they are looking upon
the bright side and will event
ually win.

Legislature In session.

The special session of the leg
islature convened last Monday.
Practically the only contest will
be on the primary law. Cover
nor Warner has evolved plan
that may meet 1.-THE Boxers
approval. 1t provides for two
primaries: If no candidate for
governor receives 40 per cent OF
the votes cast at the April pri-
mary then the two highest for
each Office shall run again at an
other primary to be held in Au-
gust. In view of the feeling eX-
listing between the adminlstra-
ton and "BoXer" element, it is
doubtful if they get together on
a compromise. The governor
will ask the Legislature to pass a
new juvenile court law, The
special message may include
several other matters. The leg

Michigan Proud OF Tigers.

One Of the greatest struggles
in the history of base ball is end
ed. Unity of action, clean,
sportsmanlike methods, hard,
consistent work, aggressiveness
and grim determination in the
face of defeat are some of the
factors which have brought the
Detroit Tigers from sixth place
in 1906 to the top of the percent
age column in 1907. Loyal
Michiganders, regardless of their
opinions of base ball as a nation
al sport, are proud of the fact
that Michigan team has won
the pennant in the American
league, and the whole state, al
most to a man, is shouting prais-
es for the game fighters from the
city of the straits, and wishing
them success in the worlds SER
les now in progress. The up hill
fight made by the winners in the
struggle just finished is worthy
of emulation in any walk of life.
1t contains lessons Of merit for
the student or the business man,
the laborer or the politician. 1t
is that aggressive fighting spirit
in the face of defeat that enables
men to climb to the topmost
round of the ladder of fame and
success

Good Music.

The Jerry from Kerry Company
came to town last Friday and played
themselves into the good opinion of
our people early in the afternoon
with first rate concert band, one
| of the best we have heard in some
time. They opened with march,
then trombone solo, aud then
some concert numbers which we're
very fine indeed. At night the bill
was in the nature of a vaudeville
show, and the first sketch was "Joe,
the Newsboy," from a standpoint
of acting an artistic success. 1t
was by far the best part of the pro-
gram. 1t was something like an
old time curtain raiser. There were
only two in the cast, yet these two
people kept the audience intensely
absorbed in the play. The double
part of Mrs. Belknap and the news
boy was assumed by Mrs. Fletcher
and she did it like an actress. James
Campbell essayed four different
characters-Belknap the broker,
Johnson, the banker, Leomsky, the
the ped dler, and Bad Pete, bur-
glar. His work was good too. The
play was done with spirit and tall
emit. The rest of the entertain
ment abounded with Irish and rus
tic comedy, good acrobatic turn,
and ending with a mix-up of the
side-splitting type. The music
throughout was good Union City
would like to see more Of Jerry and

Asks Us To Print It.

To relieve the worst forms OF
Rheumatism, take teaspoonful OF
the following mixture after each
meal and at bedtime,
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon. one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla, three ounces.
These harmless ingredients can
be obtained from our home drug
gists and are easily mixed by
shaking well in a bottle. Relief is
generally felt from the FIRST few
doses.
This prescription, states a we'll
known authority in Cleveland
morning paper, forces the clogged-
up, inactive kidneys to filter and
train from the blood the poisonous
waste matter and uric acid, which
causes Rheumatism.
As Rheumatism is not only the
most painful and torturous disease,
but dangerous to life, this simple
recipe will no doubt be greatly val
ued by many sufferers here at home
who should at once prepare the
mixture to get this relief.
It is said that a person who
would take this prescription reg
ularly, dose or two eaily or even
a few times a week, would never
have serious Kidney or Urinary
or Rheumatism.
Cut this out and preserve it.
Good Rheumatism prescriptions
which really relieve are scarce. in
deed, and when you need it you
want It badly. onr druggists here
say they will either supply these
ingredients or make the mixture
ready to take, Il any Of our readers
