4 A SUCCESS
Substantial Business Men Are Behind
West Michigan's Big Show.
EVERY DOLLAR OF PROFIT, HOW.
EVER is IMMEDIATELY PUT
INTO IMPROVEMENTS ON
FAIR GROUNDS.

If you have not already made up
your mind to attend the West Michi'
gan State Fair, you should do SO now.
Make your preparations to be able to
have the time to spend at least part
Of the week of Sept 12-16th In Grand
Rapids on those dates.
There is not only "a reason" why
you should do this, but there are sew
eral reasons.
Did you ever stop to think that this
great exposition, the West Michigan
State Fair, is YOUR fair?
The West Michigan State Fair Is
public, not a private, institution. The
men who compose the business com
mittee Of the West Michigan State
Fair and who have the actual man.
agement of 1t are: William H. Ander-
son, president of the Fourth National
bank; Lester ]. Rindge of the Rindge-
Kalmbach-Lodie Co.. Sidney f. Stew
ems Of Foster, Stevens and Co.; Robert
d. Graham, president Of the CONNER
cial Savings bank, and Eugene ID. Con-
ger secretary, cashier of the Peoples
Saving bank. These men are all we'll
known and prominent business men OF
Grand Rapids and give their time and
services to the West Michigan State
Fair without any compensation what
ever, except the secretary, who has
charge of the Office during the entire
year. Every dollar of profit made by

improvement of the grounds and
buildings. A public, itemized report is
issued every year by the officers Of
the Fair and every member Is fur
nished a copy of It. Any citizen OF the
state may ask for and receive a COM
plete detailed account of Just what
was done with the money received by
the Fair.
During the past eight years. with
the exception of one year, the West
Michigan State Fair has been q f1nan-
cial success The men who have been
responsible for this success are bust
ness men, successful in their own af-
fairs, and who take pride in making a
success of everything they undertake.
Without your assistance and patron
age, and that means the people of
western Michigan, they could not have
been successful.
The 1910 Fair will be bigger and
better than any fair ever held on the
West Michigan State Fair grounds.
There are larger premiums offered and
more entries and finer exhibits In
every department. There will be larger
purses in the speed department and
better races, and the free attractions
presented during each day of the Fair
will be OF the highest class. Above all,
following their former policy. the man
agement of the West Michigan State
Fair refused to allow any gambling or
liquor selling on the grounds and
thereby guarantee a clean, up-to-date
exhibition to which you can come and
bring your family. feeling sure that
you will be well repaid for doing So
Do not miss the West Michigan State
Fair this year. There are reasons.

Modest " omen

DO YOU realize that the medicine
you are taking may be doing you
harm instead of good? Have you
noticed that the more you take the
more you require to get relie1!
STOP AND THINK!
Are you using the same caution
in the selection of the medicines
you are taking for the protection
of your health that you would ex-
ercise in selecting a trustee tor the
protection of your cash?
A woman's ailments are delicate
subjects to discuss, and she VIII
ofttimes bear the most torturing
pains without confiding her trouble
to her closest friend, or even her
family doctor.
This natural feminine modesty
makes many a suffering woman the
innocent victim of merciless and
avaricious manufacturers OF adver-
tised. but worthless, "cure all
nostrums.

should see your family physician at
once, but when this Is impossible
