MAD DOG

With a dog bite? l did git bit

Was made-as mad as it could be
When its two jaws grabbed hold Of

For we were giving it some snuff

Then that dog turned around and hit
The sBuffbOx and knocked all of it
Right in my face; An then / sneezed!

That mad dog didn't make me mad
Now Sophonisba says it's crool

Or to give SNUFF to dogs that snaps,
Or drop toads into mothers laps,

Helen trembled when Bobby Ellis
detached himself from the wall-fiow-
ers at the schoolhouse dance and
slouched across the floor toward her.
He crooked his elbow and jerked his
head in a stiff bow. In Salt Petre
Creek this pantomime was the custo-
mary invitation to dance.
The girl glanced across the room
and breathed a sigh Of relief when she
saw that her fathers broad back was
turned toward them. Bobby Ellis not

ly. Helen's hand slipped into his arm
and in another moment they were
waltzing to the strains of violin and
cornet. Bobby's arms clasped her
closely and she could feel the heavy
humping of his brave heart.
Il expect your pa will be kind of
wrathy about this dance, but there
was something had to say to you,"
said Bobby presently.
Il don't care If he is-just once"
said Helen recklessly.
That's a proper spirit, my GIRL" ap-

your promise to marry Rawlins?"

Helen looked hard at the fascinating
widow who was talking earnestly to
Mr.. Main. Mrs. Watkins was evident
ly vain of the wealth OF red hair that
was generously streaked with white
for she made no attempt to conceal
its piebald effect. She had a round
pink and white face, sweet and good
humored, and her smile was good to
see.
"She looks sweet" said Helen in
spite Of the wave of jealousy that
rushed over her.
."She is a sweet, good little woman
and she's seen heap Of trouble" said
Bobby emphatically. "The best day
she planted old Watkins!"
"Was he old?" asked Helen family
about Rawlins' age" returned Bob

SPECIAL PREMIUMS OFFERED
FCS AGRICULTURAL PRO-
EU1TS GROWN IN THE
NORTH

With al the new features which go
to make up the modern Fair, the West
Michigan State Fair at Grand Rapids
Sept. 8 10 IS, has not forgotten that
FIRST OF all Il is an agricultural fair.
Every effort is made to attract to
Grand Rapids the exhibition Ct farm
products Of al kinds and the stock
OF the farms.
But this year, more especially, an
effort has been made to offer some
thing attractive to the newer counties
of MICHIGAN, those counties which
have not had the opportunities for
farm development yet which are now
coming 10 the front very rapidly.
Accordingly, special and most liberal
prizes have been offered for the best
exhibitions of farm products coming
from these counties.
For instance, five premiums, the
highest SIS, have been offered for
the county in the upper peninsula
making the best exhibition of grains
seeds, fruits and vegetables.
Similar premiums have been of
fered for exhibits from Cheboygan,
Pressure Isle, Alpena, Montmorency,
Otsego, Crawford, Oscoda, Altoona,
Iosco, Ogemaw, Roscommon, Gladwin.
Arenac, Bay, Midland or Isabella
county showing the best collection of
farm products.
Another set of prizes for the same
sort of exhibition has been offered for
the best display from Emmett, Charlie
voiX, Antrim, Leelanau, BenZie, Grand
Traverse, Kalkaska, Missaukee, Wex-
ford, Manistee, Mason, Lake, Osceola,
Mecosta, Newaygo or Oceana.
Still another set of premiums is Of
fered for similar exhibitions from any
county located south of the south Zine
of Oceana county.
The counties are thus grouped with
an idea to giving all an equal chance.
1t is intended that healthy rivalry
between counties shall be created and
in this manner it is expected to at
tract to the West Michigan State Fair
some of the finest crops of Michigan,
raised in the counties which have
but recently become known at all as
