FAIR WILL PLEASE EVERYONE.

The modern state fair, such as that
which will open in Detroit on Sept.
2. and continue until Sept TO- is not
a commercial enterprise nor a money
making scheme, but place where
views can be exchanged and informa-
ton "swapped." Farmers and others
will meet and discuss their common
troubles and tell of their success and
failures Men show what they have
done and others learn what can be
done. A modern fair also promotes
industry by giving TO all who attend
a larger view of the possibilities of
life This is an industrial era and
II the farmer, merchant, mechanic
and professional man wish TO keer
pace with the times they must know
what is being done in all the avenues
of trade, commerce and manufacture
One way TO do this is TO take part IN
the annual Michigan State Fair This
institution is planned to educate and
incite the producer TO higher ideals
OF perfection. That this is true as
evident from what the fair has ac.
complished all through the state dur.
ing the many years 1t has been in ex-
istence.
There is also the amusement fea-
ture. which cannot be overlooked.
There is an immense value Of the
most practical kind in wholesome
recreation and amusements such, as
those afforded at the Michigan State
Fair. Men. women and children must
be entertained in some way. The ele.
waiting character OF fine music is
nv. I, -,
and feats of skill of all kinds are al.
ways enjoyed.
The Michigan State Fair has some.
thing for everyone. IL is for the
young and old. the serious and the
gay rich and the poor-at once an
education and an opportunity.

Alaskan Moonshine,

Up here in Alaska the moon rises
In the south and sets In the north. It's
beams are liquid and they enamel the
landscape with a porcelain loneliness.
1t casts spell more potent than eer
did the magicians of the east. Under
its wizardry the rocks turn to silver
and the brown old mountains are con
jured into giant pearls True wealth
exists in the mind, and whoever be-
holds an Alaskan moonlight is thrice
hundred times a millionaire .-Ketchi-

An indigestion
Remedy Free

Many people who are otherwise
healthy suffer from indigestion, or
dyspepsia. When you consider that
the stomach and allied digestive or
gans are the most important organs
OF the body, II would seem that dis
order there is TO be taken very SER
iously.
Dyspeptics cannot eat the things they
IKE; food soCrs in the stomach; then
chronic constipation begins. or, as IS often
the case, you have been constipated all
along, and the stools are forced and
irregular.
But there is no use letting indigestion
go until IL becomes chronic and UNDER
mines your health. 1t is good advice 20
suggest TO you that you go 10 your drug
gist and get a bottle OF DIR. Caldweli's
Syrup Pepsin, the wonderful cure for
stomach, liver and bowel troubles That
is what c. Fowler, of Carson CITY, Micb.'
did and he Is well today. Others who did
the same and are cured are Ida A For
tune, OF Grand Junction, Tenn, 3. F.
Thompson, OF Shenandoah, Ia, who ac-
tually considers that ii saved his life
You can obtain 50-cent or 81 bottle OF
the druggist, and, taken according to d.
rections, II Will probably be all you need.
II is liquid acts gently. never gripes,
and besides the laxative effect, contains
exceptional tonic properties which tone
the stomach. and that is what is es-
pecially needed in indigestion.
All sufferers from indigestion who have
never used DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
can obtain a free test bottle by writing
the doctor. II will be sent direct TO your
home without any charge. In this way
thousands have proven to their own sat
isfaction DR. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin Is
the very remedy they needed TO cure in
remedy you will throw violent cathartics,
Ia bets. salts, etc, away.

RESULTS THAT REMAIN
Are Appreciated by Paw Paw
People.

E6Oplt.
Thousands who suffer from backache
and kidney complaint have tried one
remedy after another, finding only tenn
porary benefit. This is discouraging, but
there is one special kidney medicine
that cures permanently and there is
plenty of proof right here 10 Paw Paw.
Here is the testimony of one who
used Doan's Kidney Pills years ago and
now states that the cure was lasting.
Wm. VI. Kirkwood, So Cedar street
Paw Paw, Mich, says: II am glad to
confirm the statement | gave in 1901
endorsing Doau's Kidney Pills. At the
tiue | got this remedy at Lougwell
Bros. Drug store, was suffering from
a constant backache and had been so
bad at times that | could hardly get
about. The passages Of the kidney Sc
cretions were scant too frequent and
were attended with burning sensation.
Doan's Kidney Pills helped me 10 a short
time and. finally rid me entirely of the
complaint. During the past four years
| have had no occasion to use Doan's
Kidney Pills or any other kidney medi-
cine, and considering this fact, recon-
mend them as strongly as did before"
