A WIDOWS LUCK
quit the Thing That Was Slowly In
juring Her.

A woman tells how coffee kept her
from insuring her life:
Il suffered for many years chiefly
from trouble with my heart, with
severe nervous headaches and neu.
ralgia; but although incapacitated
at times for my Homework, | did not
realize the gravity of my condition till
l was rejected for life insurance, be-
cause, the examining physician said,
my heart was SO bad he could not pass
me.
This distressed me very much, as
I was a widow and had a child de-
pendent upon me. 1t was to protect
her future that l wanted to insure
my life.
Fortunately for me, l happened to
read an advertisement containing a
testimonial from a nan who had been
affected in the same way that | was
with heart trouble, and who was bene-
fitted by leaving off coffee and using
Postum. grasped at the hope this
held out, and made the change at
Nnce.
MY health began to improve imme-
diately. The headaches and neuralgia
disappeared, l gained In flesh. and my
appetite came back to me. Greatest
Of all. my heart was strengthened
from the beginning, and soon all the
distressing symptoms passed away. No
more waking up in the night with my
heart trying to fly out of my mouth!
Then l again made application for
life insurance, and had no trouble in
passing the medical examination.
1T was seven years ago that l be-
gan to use Postum and | am using It
still, and shall continue to do so, as I
find 1t a guarantee Of good health"

The charm OF the quaint. old fash
Toned fichu is not to be denied. and
this summer fichus are to be much
worn with frocks Of thin. summary
material. This fchu Of white tucked
batiste and embroidery is combined
with a broad sailor collar and tho
whole arrangement fastens at the
throat with an old fashioned brooch,
the folds of the fichu being drawn
down and pinned at the belt line. One
reason for the almost universal be-
comingness of the fichu is its v
shaped arrangement at the neck. The
va neck opening Is much more apt to
be fattering to the face above II than
the round Dutch neck.

In the hope of forever barring ad-
ditional saloons from their midst,
residents of the ninth precinct of the
twelfth ward have resorted to what
appears to be a clever coup.
At present there is only one saloon
in the neighborhood, that OF William
ID. Muffat, No. 1882 Grand River-ave.,
against which there Is no complaint,
as the place Is well conducted. Re.
Gently a petition was sent to the
council by the owner OF store build
ing In that vicinity, asking that the
restrictions placed on the district by
tho Watson ordinance be taken on so
rs to permit the establishment OF Ell
other saloon. One of the arguments
used In support of the petition was
that Muffat enjoyed a monopoly and
that, with two saloons in the neigh
borhood, the proprietors would watch
each other with the result that both
would keep straight.
However, this argument failed to
carry weight with the council COM
mittee on liquor regulation, which op-
posed letting down the bars" The
residents, who came down In large
numbers to protest against and fur
ther license being granted, all gave
Mr.. Muffat credit for conducting an
orderly place and insisted that the
question of enforcing the liquor laws
did not enter into the situation at all
The committee, of which Aid. George
II. Ellis, is chairman, promptly denied
the request and so reported to the
council.
While there is little question that
the committees action would have
been sustained last Tuesday night,
had the matter come to q vote, Aid
Watson, father Of the ordinance, ask.
ed that the matter be laid on the
table, and this was done. The alder
mans purpose was not apparent then,
but now 1t develops that the alder
man, cooperating with the Business
Mems association OF the neighbor-
hood, plans to have the proposition
submitted to referendum vote OF
the people in that election district.
The council will, Of course, be bound
by the verdict Of the people, which Is
certain to be overwhelmingly against
raising the restriction.
The date Of the election has been
set for Feb. 6, and the expenses will
be borne by the Business Mems as
sociation. BY means of this referen-
dunn vote, Aid. Watson hopes to dis
pose OF the question involved for all
time, as far as this particular dis
trict Is concerned, and the action can
not fail to stand as a valuable prece-
dent from the standpoint of citizens
opposed to the establishment Of more
saloons In Detroit.

VAN z|LE TO SEEK
PLACE ON BENCH
After Much Urging BY Friends Pros.
ecutor Decides To Become Candi-
date For Judge.

Prosecuting Attorney Philip T. Van
Zile will be q candidate for one OF the
Republican nominations for circuit
Judge. The prosecutor enters the race
In response to the urgent request or
hundreds of citizens, who believe
that his record and his qualifications
and who want to see him there for
the bench's sake. The announcement
will come as welcome news to them.
For several weeks, Prosecutor Van
Zile has had the judgeship under
careful consideration. In spite OF the
persistent and determined requests
that he become a candidate, he hest
tated to do so because OF q feeling
that, inasmuch as the people had re-
elected him prosecutor last fall, he
was In duty bound to serve out his
term. His friends, however, argued
that his presence on the ticket would
add much strength to It and that II
was duty he owed the party to make
the run.
As q matter OF fact, Mr.. Van Zile-
Judge Van Zile, rather, for he has al
ready had experience as a jurist in
Michigan--would be able to put In a
full year of his second term as prose-
cutor before assuming his duties as
Judge, II elected. His stan Is well or
ganized and the work of the Office is
being taken care Of with unusual
promptness. SO that he would be In
excellent shape to turn the office over
to some one else II promoted to the
bench. That he Is entitled to this
promotion Is the belief OF the friends
who have finally induced him to try
for the place.
Judge Van Zile' had fully made up
his mind, Friday, not to run and went
SO far as to write out a statement,
giving his reasons Even as he wrote.
however, news Of his decision was
nojsed around and friends began
pouring I'm from all sides to tell him
TO "cut II out" After sleeping on
the proposition, he decided to let his
friends have their way. Just after he
had made the announcement, Satur-
day, a petition came In signed by
more than so residents of Ecorse and
River Rouge, urging him to run.
Judge Van Zile has practiced law
In Detroit for the past 20 years. For
II lie has been dean OF the faculty OF
the Detroit College of Law, and has
done much to build up the school to
Its present state OF efficiency. He WAS
formerly Judge OF the fifth judicial
circuit, which comprised Eaton, Cal
houn and Barry counties. He resign
cd to become United States district
attorney in Utah at the personal re-
quest OF President Hayes.

injunction restraining the labor lead
ers from continuing their boycott
against the firm, an obviously useless
action, as the parties have settled all
differences. II took no action what
ever in the litigation, however.
Confusion arose out Of the fact that
there are three separate cases involv-

Stove and Range Co., now before the
two questions. One
is an appeal by the officers OF the
Federation OF Labor 10 determines
whether the Injunction granted by the
lowest court restraining the con-

shall stand; the other two are appeals
on both sides from the decision Of
the supreme court of the District OF
Columbia, which sentenced Gomperss
Mitchell and Morrison. to jail for con-
tempt of court, in violating an In
junction.
The boycott matter was settled out
of court some months ago in Cincin-
natl. At that time the parties aligned
a published agreement The Bucks
company since then has been a union
shop. During the course OF the argu-

developed and the chief justice de-

does not AFFECT the main issue-th0

contempt cases will be continued ON

phase OF the three appeals having yet
