If your Stomach, Heart or Kidneys are weak, try at least, a few doses only of Dr. Shoop's Restorative. In five or ten days only the result will sur. prise you. A few cents will cover the
 cost. And here is why help comes so quickly. Dr. Shoop doesn' t drug the Stomach, nor stimulate the Heart or Kidneys. Dr. Shoop's Restorative goes directly to the weak and failing nerves. Each organ has its own controlling nerve. When this nerve fails the de- pending organs must of necessity fal- ter. This plain, yet vital truth, clearly tells why Dr. Shoop's Restorative is so universally successful. It's success is leading druggists everywhere to give it universal preference.

THE PLUMBERS TORCH FOR THE
 FARMER


 Years ago in Brown county, South Dakota, man named Campbell, bank rupted himself trying to make crops grow with less rain than had always been found necessary for them. Others lost their all, too, and moved away, cursing the country.
 Brown county and all it's neighboring counties went down into the slough of despond and foreclosures, and great areas, from Devil 8 lake on the north to Fl Paso on the south, lasped into the hands of mortgages, were wholesaled out in big tracts to spectators, and have now gone into prosperous farms again.
 Campbell has been the cause of this recovery more than any other human factor. The other factor has been some ten years of plentiful rainfall for the semi arid and arid west.
 Instead of giving up, Campbell de- viesd system of trapping and saving in the earth the rainfall that did come, and found that by proper culture one inch of water will grow as much grain as two inches will grow under wet coun- try methods.
 But there are people who say, with much reason, that even under "dry farming methods there is danger of great calamity to settlers all over this arid west when the weather swings back to the dry stage again, as it will. Even "dry farming requires SOME water. And when the arid plains go dry, they go dry. Otherwise they would not be inhabited by prairie dogs and grow up cactus.
 BUT THEY WILL ALWAYS PRO DUCE CACTUS. Every year is good cactus year. And now comes the grave and reverend young men of the agri- cultural department and tell us that cactus is probably the best crop to which any farm can be planted!
 Not the spineless cactus of Burbank, but the old spiny prickly pear on which cattle are afraid to step and which live stock must have Earveyizcd lips to eat.
 You are Llano Estacado or Colo rado valley farmer, We will say, on land too high for irrigation. You plant cac- tus-plant it carefully and till it. It won't be hurt by weeds, for weeds can't grow there; but it will grow like the green bay tree of scripture. The rabbits will shun its thorns. The very goats will go around it. But when you want to feed it you take plumber s blow torch and harvest it.
 No, this ism t joke. You simply take blow torch and burn of the spiresi They are dry as matches and sing. of like the pin feathers on a dressed chick en.
 When the cacti have been singtld, the cattle, swine and sheep will rush in and eat and eat-for it is good forage for
  them alli
 More than TWENTY TONS TO THE ACRE of this crop per year is fair yield. If you let 1t grow two years you get MORE THAN FORTY TONS. You let it grow until you want 1t, and take your blow torch and so forth to singe. Winter or summer is the same to the prickly pear. And when the stock has eaten it to the ground it comes up again without replanting.
 The department of agriculture says so. With "dry farming for the ordi- nary crops, and cactus for every year, let us hope that settlers on the plains will be able to laugh in the face of the hot winds of the droughts which we hope will never come, and live in desic.

THE INVENTORY

In the first few weeks of the new year. every business house in the land is engaged in taking measure of its goods and accounts.
 Thus they will definitely determine what progres has been made during the cid year, what lines have been most profitable and what have brought losses.
 It is a custom that is as necessary in modern business methods as is book keeping.
 And, if we knew it. it is a custom that is just as beneficial in our individu- al lives as it is in business.
 Isn't it worth while to pause at least snce year and find out what purposes have carried us forward in the world, what endesvors have profited us, and what lines of conduct have slackened our hold upon the better things9
 After few annual inventories the merchant finds out from the inexorable figures of his balance sheet that selling shoddy as good goods doesn't pay in the long run. The profits may be large for while but they don't last.
 And if it is worth annual inventory of stocks and accounts to learn this rule regarding few hundreds or thou sands of dollars, isn't it worth annual inventory of character and achievement to learn the equally fixed rule regarding the an-important things of private life7
 Shoddy in character and conduct goes no further, fools people no longer, and brings no more lasting profit than it does in business.
 The man, whatever his work, who is not getting on as he should, may find an inventory to his advantage. He may discover that he is failing to keep re- plenished his stock of enthusiasm and energy, and has little left on the shelves of his mind and heart but shod- dy. which the world doesn't want.
 No man succeeds or fails, goes for ward or slips backward, grows in hap piness or swamps in misery, but for good reason.
 He who is dissatisfied with his condi- tion and hopes to better it must put out of his mind all notions about "luck," and settle down to a careful inventory of his qualifications and efforts.
 If he is painstaking enough he will find something wrong, not. with the world, Sut with himself.
 While We are measuring the material things and es,lightening the mind in it's relation to th.m, We would be foolish not to measure also the more precious treasures of the Heart and soul.
 For the real life is within, and the rules that obtain there are as immutabl as those that obtain without
 To get something for nothing is as impossible in tte inner life is in the outer one
 To get value we must give value.
 To forecast the blessings that are to be ours, We riust inventory our own stock of honesty, industry, love, sym pathy, charity and kindly helpfulness
 Without thes,, our hope for success and happiness is as vain as is the hope for profits by the merchant whose shelves are bare

EIGHT LEGAL HOLIDAYS NOW.
Columbus Day, Oct. IL, is LEGAL Hoi-
iday in Michigan.

The Michigan state legislature now
recognizes eight legal HOLIDAYS, Col
umbus day, Oct. IL. being the latest
created by this august body. Columbus
day is made holiday with the proviso
by the legislature that it shall not in
terfere with the business of courts or
banks, 80 its recognition by the business
interests ofthe state is not compulsory,
The day will, this year at least, likely
be quite widely observed throughout
the state. In the copper country it will
be especially observed as there are
many Italian societies there who will
conduct special Columbus day demon
strations. OF course the big demon
stration of the day by the Italians will
be at Iron Mountain.
The other seven legal holidays are
New Years, Lincoln's birthday, Feb.
II; Washington's birthday. Feb. 22;
Memorial day, May 80; Independence
day. July 4; Thanksgiving, last Thurs
day in November, Nov. % this year,
and Christmas, Dec. 25.
1t is not likely that the school will be
dismissed on Columbus day, as they are
not dismissed on Lincoln day, but some
note of the day will be taken in the
schools.

Switch Yards
To Be Enlarged.
Plans are Made for Building Trestle
Work Out Into the Lake at L'Anse.

F. E. Simar and assistant, C. Decom-
ier, of Pequaming, were in L'Anse
Wednesday, surveying the right of-way
for new switch, which will be made
for the convenience of The Chas. He
bard and Sons lumber firm, of Pequam-
ing.
The road, as laid out, will connect
with the main switch line above the
Thomas Hotel, branching out to the left
and running near the edge of the lake,
through the Worcester Pole Yard, out
to the old lumber docks, one hundred
or more feet into the lake.
Here dock will be made, in such a
manner that scow may be let in SO
that the cars may run out onto the same.
In this way, the cars can be towed on
the scow to Pequaming, where they
will be run onto the Hebard railroad,
then unloaded.
This little road, as planned will add
to the appearance of our switch yard,
as well as be means of saving a tidy
sum for the Hebard's who intend to ship
five hundred or more carloads of their
material over the road every year in
instead of by boat. Here to fore most
of their material has been sent by
water.

HAS IT ON TOM HAZEL.
ROLAND Ames OF Dickinson County ID
the Crack Wolf Slayer.

ROLAND Ames, who is now making his
headquarters at the Dykes ranch in the
Fence river district. Dickinson county,
is said to be the most successful trapper
of wolves in the upper peninsula. Since
the first of January he has caught is
wolves in his traps. Last week he was
unusually successful, capturing four and
large bear. Ames employed no bait
or scent-such as recommended by the
so-called government experts-in trap
ping. He says that wolves have large
runways, the same as deer and other
animals, and he simply plants his traps
to approach the runway from side
direction and selects spot near log,
taking care not to step into the runway.
Anes made study OF the habits of the
wolf family and he says that nearly all
the stories in circulation relative to
their acuteness have no foundation in
fact. That Ames is highly successful
in capturing wolves once he has famil-
iarized himself with their runway is
certain.
Ames had rather an unusual experience
while trapping in the Fence river>dis-
trict recently. A large black bear was
caught by the hind foot in one of his wolf
traps and Immediately sought more
congenial nei ghborhooi. Amss followed
the WELL defined trail of the bear and
the dragging trap for distance esti-
mated at ten miles. He finally founb
the bear dead at the foot of tree and
the trap hanging from a limb. Ames
is of the opinion that his bearship be-
coming tired sought safety in the tree,
became entangled with the trap chains
and fell to the ground, landing on the
rocks in such manner as to break his
back. The weight of the bear broke
the trap chain. leaving the trap in the
the tree some distance from the
ground. Anyway, the bear was dead
with broken back and the trap was
''up a tree" The bear in his travels
had returned to within a few rods of
the place where he had been caught in
the trap.
Ames record is better than that o.
Tom Hazel, the copper country wolf re-
cord holder. At that he. was not sue
cessful in the Silver Mountain district
when he hunted up there couple of
years ago.

FOURTEEN THOUSAND MILES.
StarI Cronley of Toledo is Walk.
ing Around the United states.

Starl Cronley of Toledo, O., who is
walking around the borders of the
United States for the purpose of collect
ing data of book which he will publish,
passed through L'Anse Friday. He
started on a wager of So, 900 from the
Office of the Toledo Blade in October
1907, agreeing to complete the circuit
by June 1910, earning his own living en-
route, starting without cent and do
ing no begging, borrowing or stealing.
When he reached this place he had
walked to Maine, down the Atlantic
coast, around the gulf coast, across the
southern border to California, up the
Pacific coast and eastward along the
northern border till he reached Hough-
ton. and from there to this town. He
had made II, ,972 miles and still has the
great lakes coast line to walk as well
as the Atlantic coast. In his trip thus
far he has been in 1,137 postoffice towns.
Cronley carries with him a book in
which he keeps diary, which was no
ticed on him here. He has filled four
such books, which are ordinary counter
day books, and is on his fifth. In each
town which he strikes he visits the post
Office and has the cancelling stamp i'm
pressed on his book, showing the hour
and the date of his arrival. This makes
of the book an undisputable record of
his trip. The walker carries with him
pedometer which records the distance
travelled and he takes its record off daily.
Cronley tells some interesting things
regarding his trip. He says that when
he first started out he lost weight but
that he is now gaining. He does not
get tired any more but about every three
weeks his feet become sore.
Since starting on his trip Cronley
has lost ten days in jail and about 40
days through snowstorms. The Jail
sentence he served in Florida because
he carried rifle. The sheriff arrested
him and the judge gave the rifle to the
sheriff and gave Cronley ten days.
Cronley makes his living as he goes
by selling souvenirs of his trip and by
exchanging space in his book for hotel
accommodations. He says that he has
the same fountain pen with which he
started and that it only cost him dol

He win Take a Rest.

A deal was made the fore part of the
whereby John Luty OF Central City has
taken over the bucher and meat market
business formerly conducted by Louis
Meisel of that place. Mr.. Luty will
consolidate the two shops and conduct
the business himself hereafter. For
the past thirty-two years Mr.. Meisel
has been in the meat market business
in Central City, and during that time
has worked hard to build up trade.
He has been more than successful, and
during the years that have passed has
seen Central City one of the largest
camps in the Hills and the best that has
ever been in the west, and has seen
again, its population dwindled down to
almost nothing, but he has stayed with
the camp through bright and stormy
weather. He believes that he is entitled
to rest, and proposes to take one.
His plans for the future have not been
made, but he will probably take trip
to the Pacific coast. = Black Hills Daily
Register.
1t will be remembered by many of
the old residents of L'Anse and vicinity
that Mr.. Meisel was formerly located
in L'Anse and was in the butcher bus
mess here with the late C. p. Blanken-
horn, leaving here for Central City S. d.
in 1878.

nection with the erection of the steel
bridge which is to span the Linden
Greek on the lake street.

will be put at work Monday tearing
down the wooden bridge and preparing
for the new structure.
We feel it our duty at this point to
call attention to the poor condition of
the bridge on Main street. The walk
of this bridge is in such poor shape
that one not acquainted with this con-
dition will invariably stumble and fall
when crossing. Ye scribe has noticed
numerous parties stumble and hurt
themselves on account of this bad walk.
Are we going to wait until some one
presents little bill for damages,
through the courts?
