L'ANSf BECOMING A
"GOOD TOWN."
Many Citizens Making Excellent
Improvement to their Property
and Municipality Doing
Likewise.

."Is L'Anse good town to live in?"
Don't let it ever creep into your mind
that it isn't. This is the best way we
can express ourselves, in regard to the
high esteem in which the little village
is held in our hearts.
During the past few weeks the
manner in which public and private i'm
provements have been made, no one
who has the spirit of the welfare of a
community in which they live, could
help feeling otherwise.
About two weeks ago contract for
the construction of new cement walk
and approach to the Opera House was
awarded to A. w. Anderson & Son, of
Houghton. Last week this was COM
pleted and following in its wake were
many private walks, until now the list
has been so filled that but few walks
along Main street have not been replaced
by new cement one.
1t is with a great pleasure that we
chronicle the names of those who have
so far fell in line and hope that we may
add to the list each week.
Those whom we note are Fred King,
Town Hall, P. Brennan, McKernan
Estate, c. p. Blankenhorn, Mrs. Geo.
Trudeau, Mrs. E. L. Mason, j. b.
Smith, r. c. Williams, d. Levitan,
George Sanregret.
An agreement is also being entered
into with the village council, that it
shall construct cross walk of cement
at all points in the village where two
cement walks adjoin. In several in
stances this has been done and there are
several more to follow.
In the past similar walks were laid
from the corner of j. B. Smith store to
the corner of Menge lot. Then from the
corner of the Trudeau & Rambaud
saloon to the north corner of the
Menard building. With the installation
of the Sanregret walk, the west side of
Main street in the business section will
be complete pavement.
We are informed that the east side
will soon present equally as fine APP
pearance, negotiations now being un-
derway for the construction of a walk
fronting the Jail and adjoining proper
ties.
The work done so far by the contrac-
ors has been of first class nature and
it is fair to presume that the same kind
will be done for those contemplating
the work in the future.
In great number of instances resi-
dences in all parts of the village have
been either remodeled or rebuilt, many
new ones being added to the list this
year, and when it is considered by a
fair thinking people, none can feel that
we are not justified in saying that
81 'Anse is Good Town.

If one feels dull and spiritless, in the
spring or early summer, they call it
"Spring Fever" But there is no few
er usually. 1t is the after effect of our
winter habits. The nerves are mostly
at fault. Tired, wornout nerves leave
US languid, lifeless and without spirit
or ambition. A few doses of DR..
Shops Restorative will absolutely and
quickly change all of these depressing
symptoms. The Restorative won {
bring you back to full health in q day
or two, but It will do enough in 48 hours
to satisfy you that the remedy isreach-
ing that tired spot. Druggists every
where are advising its use as q prompt
general tonic. 1t gives more vim and
more spirit to the spoonful than any
other known nerve or constitutional
tonic. It sharpens failing appetite,
aids digestion, frees sluggish livers and
kidneys, and brings new. life, strength
and abition. Test 1t few days and be
convinced. Sold by Campbell q Mason,
