A disagreement about advertising arose
with a weekly" Journal.
Following it, an attack on us appeared In
their editorial columns sneering at the claims
we made particularly regarding Appendicitis
We replied through the regular papers and
the weekly" thought hit back rather too
hard and thereupon sued for libel.
The advertisement the weekly" attacked
us about claimed that in many cases of appen-
dicitis an operation could be avoided by dis
continuing indigestible food, washing out the
bowels and taking a predigested food Grape

Wouldn't that knowledge be comfort to
those who fear surgeons knife as they fear
death?

We replied that he was ignorant of the facts.
He was put on the stand and compelled to
admit he was not a DR.. and had no medical
knowledge of appendicitis and never invest-

The surgeon testified bacteria lgerms1 help

We claimed and proved by other famous

Pretty Good Definition.

We hear some funny things in Fleet
street sometimes, and the following
definition of the height of aggravation,
by a gentleman in rather shaky boots,
whom we encountered in well-known
hostelry the other day, struck us as
being particularly choice.
THE eight of haggravation, gentle
men," said this pothouse humorist, set
ting his pewter on the counter and

one about to let off good thing, the

Not Much Danger of Typhoid.

State Analyst Robson OF the dairy
and food department visited the fruit
store to ascertain II there was danger
Of typhoid contagion through the
sale of fruit, from the two cases in the
family Of Ralph Tore, living up stairs.
Mr.. Robson stated that IN his opin-
ion the typhoid cases were isolated
sufficiently so that the danger of
spreading the disease by the fruit was
very remote. Nevertheless, Sanitary
Inspector Carpenter and Mr. Robson
left directions for renovating the place
and will keep tab on the proprietor to
see that he observes the directions.
Conditions in the family of Ralph
Tore remain unchanged The children
are being cared for by the parents and
the physician in charge is endeavoring
to secure the best attention possible
under the circumstances.

Few people who know mistletoe
only as desirable feature OF Christ
mas decorations understand that the
plant is parasite dangerous to the
life of trees in the regions in which
II grows. II is only question OF

grow upon tree before the tree it

Accepted 2so Miles Of Road.

The state highway department has
completed its work of road inspection
for 1910. About 20 miles of roads,
ready for the official o. X. of one of
the highway officials, will not be in
spected until spring on account of the
snow This season the department
has accepted $50 miles of state award
road.
"The work was continued until con-
ditions made II impossible for us to
proceed any farther" said Commits
sioner Ely. The last road inspection
was a mile in Ionia county which l ac-
cepted the other day. had made sew
eral previous trips over the highway"
One Of the first important acts of
the department next spring will be a
trip to the Cape Cod district OF Mas
sachusetts by Commissioners Ely and
Rogers to inspect the famous sand
roads, the discussion of which caused
so much comment at the recent con-
vention of the National Road Build
ers' association at Indianapolis The
state officials are certain that the dis
covery will be a great boon for Michi-
gan, II II is all that reputable experts
claim It to be. If 1t is possible to make
durable sand roads by a mixture OF
asphaltic oil the department will spend
considerable time next season In the
sandy districts of western Michigan
making experiments and booming the
latest discovery.
