dental creams, pastes, powders, etc.
In every case the relentless search of the
microscope found that an average of over
thirty kinds Of more or less harmful mi
erobes had utterly de6ed these dentifrices.
Yet every one of these people-deceived
by the temporary fragrance left by tooth
pastes and powders-thought their mouths
and teeth were scrupulously clean.
And probably ninety-nine people out of
every hundred who are still depending on
pastes, powders and the namby PANTY
kinds of liquid dentifrices are being de-
ceived in the same way.

How had thrown bombshell.'
In the end, however, an ar
rangement was come to. How's
resignation was accepted. Hal.
Woodward, "of Chicago and the
brakebeams" was elected presi-
dent of the association for one
year.
The hoboes then passed on to a
consideration of measures now
before the government. They
unanimously declared in favor of
government ownrship of rail-
roads.
AS one delegate put it:
eff the government owned the
railroads, the brakemen would be
government officials, wouldn't
they? They would. And who
ever saw a government official
who wasn't too hog-lazy to take
the trouble to '-r-forciblv eject
a gentleman wayfarer? Answer
me that?"
Nobody answered him, and,
as has been said, the resolution
favoring government ownership
passed unanimously.
Then the Aldrich Central Bank
plan was taken up. At the mere

The speech had its effect, how
ever. The Aldrich bank plan
was condemned in unmeasured
terms.
Shortly after this solmen-
faced delegate, whose whiskers
were only of about four days
growth, arose and asked for rec
ognition. 1t was given him.
"Now in the mattre of work"
began the delegate. Then he had
to stop. A number of the dele
gates were getting under the
seats, and otherwise causing con-
fusion.
The chair finally restored or
der. The solemn faced delegate
buttoned up his coat as If he
meant business.
"I know" he said, that to
certain number of our brothers,
work is regarded as the primary
curse of man.
"To go back to the days of the
Garden of Eden"
Miss Clara Harvey, of St. Louis,
the only woman delegate to the
convention, here interrupted to
remark that the convention would
NOT go back to the days of the
Garden of Eden.
'In a manner of speaking, was
all I meant" said the solemn fac
ed delegate. "What l was going
to say, was that in those days
there was no work, and" here

Republican County Convention

The republican County Convention
was held at Charlevoix, Tuesday, and
was quite well attended
Delegates elected to the State Con-
vention are: Hon. w. j. Pearson,
Boyne Falls: w. J. Gallagher St.
James; l. o. White, Bovne City;
Hon. j. NJ. Harris, Boyne City, Will

dan; Arthur l., Fitch, Lisle Shanahan
Charleyoix.
The committee on resolution made
the following report, which was adpptv
ed 10y the convention.
Resolved, that Chairman Pearson
must have been afflicted with tenn
porary brainstOrm when he seplected
his committee, however we feel that
the county committee should be CON
graduated on securing his services
for another term as chairman.
Resolved further, that the man who
Is To be his successor at Lansing
is as wise a choice as the county ever
made aud that II. !. Mcmillan will
be found TO be the right man in the
right place. He may permit auto
mobiles to run over him in Charlevoix
county but we think he can dodge the
cars in Lansing and undepbtly find
time to give this county all the yer
vice she has coming.
Resolved further, that the balance
OF the tickets is worthy the support
Of all Republicans as it was the choice
Of the people.

THE MENACE OF WEALTH
With Its Powers To Corrupt Our Lawmakers
Discussed in "Ths Lion and the Mouse"

If you are fond Of q good love story
the kind In which trpe-hearted, clean
spirited young peuple play the prin-
cipal roles-if you enjoy a battle roy
al between two mighty forces-the in
domnitable will OF man and the
clever wits Of bright woman 20 TO
see THE Lion and the Mouse" which
the United Play Co., will present at
the Temple Theatre, Saturday, Sept.
2l.
If you wish a few suggestions con-
cerninP the terrible part wealth plays
Ia the political, economical and So
cial life OF our country will find them
easily obtaInable. And, il you care
for only a good play so admirably
played that it will give you an eYen-
ing OF thorough enjoyment, you will
not be disappointed.
In 1.-THE Lion and the Mouse"
| Charles Klein, the author. has con-
structed play OF exceptional strength
and UNUSUAL interests. He has taken
subject which keenly appeals to
every American citizen-the acQuir-
ing Of wealth and its concentration in
the hands of few men, This Mr..
Klein uses as background for a
love story which wins and holds the
onlooker's sympathy. At the same
time he mas driven home without
preaching ur moralizing the fact Of
the menace which lies in the abuse Of
capital and Oftimes fearful results
upon those WHO misuse it, and those
who oppose its misuse.
Ia the plot for a story Mr.. Klein
has taken judge who after long and
| faithful service on the bench has been
impoverished. his honesty questioned
and his position placed in jeopardy,
from having handed down decision
unfavorahle tn the great amalgamated
, interests of John Burkett Ryder and
| his followers. His uprightness, a
thorn in the side Of the capitalists,
induces them TO resort to a scheme to
dishonor and depose him. The
daughter Of the judge returns from
Europe just as the blow falls and,
finding her father in disgrace and in
proverty, takes the matter in her
own hands.

OBJECT LESSON WAS ENOUGH
After the Illustration Mrs. Jones Was
Able to Understand Just How
II Happened.

Mr. Jones believed that no one need
ever fall down. 1t was pure careless
ness, he said. Anyone who walked

He said so to Mrs. Jones many times,
but she only smiled in provoking
way
One bitter cold January morning he
changed his mind. Everything out.
doors had coating of ice. The path
leading from the barn to the house
was smooth as glass and slanted
treacherously on either hand. On one
side Of It was an old cellar, where the
house had once stood. Jones was COM
ing from the barn, after doing the
morning chores, with pail of milk
In each hand. He was just opposite
the cellar when-zzzt!-out few his
feet and down he went on his back.
The next instant he had slid In a
shower Of milk over the edge Of the
cellar hole, and landed on the bottom
with a thump that fairly took away

Once more Jones's feet flew up, and

Finally Excused.

A Juror summoned to serve in the
court Of Judge Gates asked to be ex-
cused because of pressing business
that he must attend to. The judge re-
fused to excuse him and went on
with tho examination OF other jurors.
Every once in while this juror would
interrupt and ask to be excused be-
cause Of the pressing needs OF his
business and the judge would com.
mand him to sit down. At last Judge
Gates, losing patience, demanded:
"And what Is your business, sir,
that Is 80 pressing?"

Women Who Know Silver.

Rich women who are ever on the
watch for antique bits of silver or pew
ter, says the New York Tribune, have
taken TO carrying small silver-mount-
ed microscopes. SO that the hallmarks
can be examined with ease and the
accuracy of the date be determined.
Dealers in antiques are very apt to
talk gbbly of George II. silver or Of
George Ill. and even Of William and
Mary, pieces OF those of good Queen
Anne, and this prattle is bound to
make an impression with those who
do not know, and can also fool the
near-sishted customer. Hence the

In the line Of exhibits, the poultry

best from al exhibition standpoint,
There were birds here from Bay City

The exhibit OF horses, sheep and
swine was excellent, and the new

stock To advantage.
In the Floral Hall, the exhibit of
fancy work, canned fruits, and school
work was better than the average

was in fresh fruits aud vegetables; a
