Enough" IL Fatal.

Out Of the beginnings OF phi
losophy there came this bit OF
truth: eff you say you have
enough, you perish. Always
add, always walk, always pro-
ceed.'
No author of the present day
is writing anything that digs
deeper into the "why of thing
than does that thought.
The people who have ceased
TO "add. walk and proceed" have
ceased to be useful in society.
The merchant who is satisfied
is doomed. The one who believes
that his business is big enough,
useful enough, important enough
is out of the race.
In all lines of business there
must be, of necessity, the cease
less adding, walking, proceeding
the reaching, pushing, SHOW
ing, pulling, pressing for great
or usefulness to the community.
These things presage growth
they are growth.
Under modern conditions this
striving and struggling would
no of little avail if it were not
for advertising which makes
thriving and struggling worth
while, and effective.
The advertiser who says

TOnsiIine The throat is one Of Of
cures of the body. Ii is also
Geo 1L.oo4 one of the most inn
OoiC ihiOaI portant, and should
be given the best possible care.
The throat is the gateway to the body.
The air we breathe, the food we eat, the
liquids we drink, all pass through it. 1t is
very easily affected by cold, strain, ex-
posture, ETC., and Sore Throat is therefore
one of our most common ailments.
Strangely enough, it is also one OF the
most neglected.
Sore Throat is a very serious matter,
for the whole system is in danger in
consequence of it.
Every Sore Throat patient is a candidate
for Tonsilitis, Quinsy, Diphtherla and
other serious or fatal diseases, all of which
can be prevented by the timely cure of the
Sore Throat by the use of TONSlLINE.
II taken in time dose or two will do It,
TONSILINE is made to cure throat dis
eases and nothing else. 1t Is the one
remedy for this purpose sold largely In the
United States. Every user endorses It;
every physician, knowing its virtues,
commends 1t.
The one most important thing to ~
remember about TONSiLINE is the S'M
fact that it really does cure Sore IA

Elderly People
Helped Free

The last years of life are the sweet
est, and yet the most difficult TO pro-
long. 1t is then that the greatest care
is exercised in maintaining bodily
health. But the chief care should all
ways be with regard to the food you
eat and whether you are digesting it
properly. You should not allow your
self 10 become constipated.
No doubt you have tried salts and
cathartic pills purgative tablets, etc. and
I have come 10 the conclusion that they are
violent in action and do but temporary
good. Listen, then, TO the voice OF ex-
perience with regard TO a wonderful and
mild laxative, Or. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin. IL IS not new, only we are trying
to find new friends for it.

fered from stomach trouble for six years
and found his cure in DIR. Caldwell s

success. We could name hundreds OF
others. Some heard of it first through
neighbors or friends; others through the
doctors offer to send any sufferer from a
stomach, liver or bowel complaint a free
sample bottle for trial, without charge.
III you will send your name and address
your home. If ii proves itself as he
claims then continue the treatment by
buying a 50-cent or 81 bottle of your
druggist, as all of them sell 1t. Old people,
like children, should look for purity, and
II is we'll TO mention that the purity OF
this remedy is vouched for with the u. S.
government. Also, though free bottle
is sent TO prove its merits, results are
always guaranteed from the regular
bottles bought of druggists. who will re-
you. Send at least for the free test bottle

What then has become of Van
Buren, open saloons? Where
are her blind tigers; her holes
in the wall that were attempted
to be maintained for a time after
the adoption of the local option
law?
More intoxicating liquors are
sold in local option territory
than where they have saloons.
Then why such determined eff.
fort on the part of the brewers
and distillers to overthrow the
law and why are they spending
money without stint to prevent
its adoption in other counties?
The law cannot be enforced.
Then what mean the numerous
convictions secured, the fines
collected and sentences Of im-
prisonment imposed in Van Blu
rem county upon those who have
violated its provisions? A Grim
inal statute is enforced when
criminals are brought to justice.
The law makes men liars. Not
if they were honest and truthful
men before the law was enacted.
Men will drink and you can
not stop them. Very well, there
is no law against it.
There is more drunkenness in
local option counties than in sa-
loon counties. A barefaced lie,
which may tend to prove that
the law makes men liars.
Local option ruins business.
Does that mean that Van Buren's
business men are fools? They
say the law has a contrary effect
and that it helps all legitimate
business. However, it does ruin
one business-that of the open
saloon.

thriving sufficiently, has really

is a delusion.
Local Option Column.

Twenty-Five Michigan coun'
ties are engaged in a fierce battle
against the open saloon. The
Detroit Journal sizes them up as
follows:
Counties that will go wet, Al
Logan, Berrien. Calhoun, Charlie
voix, Dickinson, Eaton, Genesee,
Jackson and Washtenaw %.
Counties that will go dry, Al
coma, Benzie, Branch. Glare,
Emmett, Hillsdale, Huron, Ionia,
Iosco,, Isabella, Kalkaska, La
peer, Livingston, Mecosta, Mon
roe, Montcalm, Newaygo, Otta-
wa, Sanilac and Tuscola 20.
The present dry counties are
Barry, Clinton, Gratiot, Mid
land, Missaukee, Oakland, Gee
ana, Oscola, St. Joseph, Van
Buren, and Wexford IL.
If the Journal is right in its
representations, there will be
81 dry counties in the state after
the first day of May next, well
towards half its area.
We of Van Buren, county have
strong hopes that insofar as the
foregoing prediction relates to
to Allegan and Berrien counties,
the Journal may prove false
prophet. For 10 years, with
the exception of brief period -
1894 to lS96-when Allegan
county was dry, Van Buren, has
been dry county with wet ter
ritory on every side, situation
that has increased to a marked
degree the difficulties encount-
cred in enforcing the law. And
so, while Van Buren, will rejoice
with any of her sister counties
that may unite with her in her
war against the liquor traffic,
she will be especially pleased if
Allegan on the north and Der
rien on the west should Join
hands with her in a righteous eff
fort to Danish booze.
