The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1908-10-02

In many respects the Toledo Blade is
the most remarkable weekly newspaper
published in the United States. 1t is
the only newspaper especially edited for
National circulation. 1t has had the
largest circulation for more years than
any newspaper printed in America.
Furthermore, it is the cheapest news
paper In the world, as will be explained
to any person who will write us for
terms. The News of the world so ar
ranged that busy people can more easily
comprehend, than by reading .cumber-
some columns of dailies. All current
topics made plain in each issue by
special editorial matter written from
inception down to date. The only
paper published especially for people
who do or do not read daily newspapers,
and yet thirst for plain facts. That
this kind of a newspaper is popular, is
proven by the fact that the Weekly
Blade now has over 100000 yearly SUBJ
scribers, and is circulated in all parts of
the United States. In addition to the
news the Blade publishes short and
serial stories, and many departments of
matters suited to every member of the
family. Only one dollar year.

At the Herkimer grange store bust

four years the profits have beer IS

Oklahoma Trial InconcIusive.

The fact that the first bank failure
In Oklahoma after the law went into
effect, was followed by immediate re-
endorsement of the depositors, proves
nothing as to the practicability of the
system In the long run. The fact that
the State banks of Oklahoma have
gained deposits since the system went
into operation, while national banks
within the State have lost, If true,
proves nothing as to the merits of the
system. The law itself requires that
all public deposits must be kept In
banks that belong to the system, and
this provision alone would cause con-
siderable transfer Of deposits and in
fuence some banks to join the system.
The real test Of the policy will come
In its influence upon the banking bust
ness in the long run. Will 1t tend to
secure more careful and prudent in
vestment Of the vast sums which the
people Of the country keep in banks, or
will II tend to weaken the personal re-
sponsibility for these funds and divert
them into incapable and wasteful
hands. 1t Isl superficial view which
lays all emphasis upon the immediate
results Of the Law and gives no con-
sideratfon u its violation OF funda-
mental principles aad the consequences
which must fellow.

will be begun. The plan of the pro-
motors is to have stations, several in

This, of course, sounds like a strong
statement, nevertheless it is true.
Like most novels of this class, the
scenes are laid in England. The dra-
matte version is said to follow the or
iginal manuscript very closely, max
sistent as well as amusing. There is
about the play a quaint rare charm
that fascinates.
The story opens at the country
home of Lord Rochester, Thornfield
Hall, where Jane Eyre and Rochester
first meet. Jane is the governess of
Rochester's child and her devotion to
her charge, her quiet self-reliance and
strong independence all appeal to him
and he quickly falls in love with her
in spite of the fact that it is reported
that he is to wed Lady Blanche Ing
