SAVE TWINS LIVES
IN A FTRELESS COOKER

Willows, GAIA fireless cooker
has come to the rescue of Mr.. and
Mrs. E. Pieper of this place in sus-
tanning life in their twin children,
born day or two ago.
Curled in separate compartments of
this kitchen appliance, the boy, who
weighed but two pounds at his birth,
and the girl, who weighed three, are
sleeping their way to health when
not receiving food by aid of a medi-
cine dropper.
When the twins were born the doc
tors declared that an incubator was
the only thing that could save their
lives. Nothing of the kind was to be
found in the vicinity but the freless
cooker proved equal to the emer-
gency.

ANENT LOWER FARES.

II two-cent fares are declared legal
by courts at the next session OF the
legislature Of Michigan some fellow
will present a bill for a fare Of one
cent per mile He will see an oppor-
tunity to get favorably talked about
by the common people, and he will ex-
pect due recognition by being elected
to some soft job in return for his in
terest with the wage earners, declares
the Ishpeming Iron ore. If state leg
islatures can make low rates Of fare
they may also confiscate the business
Of the men who have contributed the
capital and the brains for big enter
prises. Already capital is steering
around Michigan being afraid Of it's
laws, and the attitude OF the voters.
The game Of politics is being played in
a very high-handed manner. and capt.
tai will seek other places where it may
be invested with greater security. It
IL quite natural that this results. Any
prudent man would hesitate to invest
his money where ne knew It would be
subject to unfair attack. for political
or other purposes.
The lowering Of fare from three TO
two cents would reduce the receipts for
passenger fares 80 1-S per cent, and
II would decrease the profits OF the
business by a much greater percent
age, as the profits are a small portion
OF the fares. So in this instance the
South Shore railway would be most
savagely attacked To the average
man II would make little difference i'm
his expense account at the end Of the
year. There are a few il might affect.

commission and other houses that have
representatives. in the field. but there
Is well-founded suspicion that the
main house can well afford the fares.
The profits TO the big merchandising
establishments have been good Their
annual statements prove this, so we do
not consider that much time Is wasted
IN feeling badly for the travellers rep
resenting these organizations. There
would be no reduction in the cost to us
or teas and sugars. clothing or food
stuhs because a reduction OF one cent n
mile would be made in car fare for the
gentlemanly agents Of these houses.
That does not appeal to us. And the
travelling the average family resident
OF the upper peninsula does in the year
would not be greatly affected by the
'iference Of one cent mile in fare.
