TO THE VOTERS or
GRADY COUNTY.

Some two weeks ago l got out a
circular showing that all the county
court business was now being triea IL
the superior court at an extra expense
to the taxpayers OF $24 day. This
circular was gotten out Tor the reason
that It takes about thirty minutes to
explain this proposition to the voters,
as Judge Williams docket did not
come out till July lst; after that I did
not have time to explain the matter
TO each individual voter. and the voter
likely would not have the time to
listen, SO | got this out in the way of
circular After this circular was
out Mr.. Stacey rushes into print, as
he seems TO be fond of doing, and says
in his circular that l appropriated
his dope" " that he had what was in
my circular about the criminal busi-
ness some two months ago, and that
he had already stated in his speeches
about the civil business. As a matter
Of fact, he sent out his circular ler-
ter, that he refers to, In March and
April. Now, If Mr. Stacey could know
In March and April what would be in
Judge Williams July docket that I

of county judge; he could make a
million dollars year telling the pso.

events generally. ! had an idea that
the days of prophets were over but II
he can foretell future events three
months ahead, he ought to be able to

thing in detail that is going to happen.
Now have no desire to get into
print and have only done SO when at
tackled by Mr. Stacey. and though
am a candidate ! believe IN defend
Ing myself whenever attacked. Mr..
Stacey has run for office 50 long and
so persistently and has been hit by
the voters SO hard that they seem to
have added HIS bram, and he has
fought Judge Williams SO long that in
an enfeebied condition Of bis mind he
imagines that anything that is said
against Judge Williams is an idea Of
bis own.

To Revive Flowers.

The fashion for wearing the small,
compact nosegays, with their hold
ers Of lace paper, is pretty one.
Many women despair of the fact that
flowers quickly fade when worn by
them.
An amateur gardener confided the
secret which kept her bunch of vio-
let's fresh during an entire evening.
The simple method was this:
About the stem of the bouquet had
been wrapped piece of waxed sand
witch paper and tied with string.
Over this was placed the tinfoil
used for flowers.
They kept beautifully fresh, and
this fact is we'll worth knowing. Do
this Immediately when taking the
nosegay from the water.

FOR EARLY FALL OUTINGS
White Felt Hat Is One of the Necessi-
ties In Wardrobe Of the
Smart Woman.

Have a white felt hat for early au-
tumn outings If you wish to prove to
the hoi polloi that you know what's
what in the great world of fashion.
One of the smartest shapes Is the high
and square-crowned sailor with fiat
brim of nearly an inch on the upper
side. There is another sailor-so
cailed-although it has a sombrero
crown which must be carelessly dent
ed. This has the familiar rolling
brim that is crushed against the crown
at front, back or one side, and never
is set quite squarely upon the head.
Truth to say, it's bit rowdyish un-
less trimmed, as it should be, with a
broad band of silk or velvet ribbon
ending under double pump bow.
Lastly, there is the hat Of softest felt
with brim very narrow all around.
save along the left side, where it rolls
boldly against high rounding crown
that is banded with an inch-wide
length of corded ribbon going twice
around and ending with true lovers
knot. This ribbon is dull green, red,
gray, mauve-anything save white,
and its hue is repeated in the tie
which fastens the white cotton, or fan
mel outing shirt, and the border on
the handkerchief which peeps from
the breast pocket of this shirt.

Joy and Service.

No man is conquerable until the
Joy of serving his cause has been
driven out of his heart. Nehemiah
expressed a fact that is undoubtedly
often quoted by those who have not
experienced it. and often experienced
by those who never have quoted it,
when he said to the people, THE joy
of the Lord is your strength" AS
long as religion is a joy in the life
it will not be parted with, and it's de-
mands will not be disobeyed Chang
ing 1t about, when one is obedient and
loyal with his whole heart there will
be enthusiasm and Joy in his life.
Joy and service go together in mutual
helpfulness. When one knows he is
with Christ and Christ with him, he
will sing songs in the night, though
his feet be in the stocks and his
lacerated back on the rough dungeon
floor. When one sees the promises of
God with clearer vision than the OBJ
stacles of the world, when he realizes
hat he is following an unconquer-
able leader from whose love no power
known to mans reason or magma
ton is able to separate him; then
there is no night so dark, nor pain
so keen. nor disappointment so bitter
that his soul will not exult In God
through 1t all. and he will march on
with undated zeal and vigor. Like
Christ, for the Joy that Is set before
him he will endure the cross and de
spise the shame.

THOUGHTS OF "A
GREAT PREACHER
Short Analysis of Ideas Taken
From the Writings of the
Late C. H. Sturgeon.

~HAINED in Satan's boat, you are
swiftly gliding down the stream
~ to ruin, and because 1t Is
smooth. you dream that 1t ID
safe! What Is the difference between
the saint and the sinner? Mo- that In
the saint there is no sin. Not that IN
the sinner there is never a thought
about God. The difference Is this
that the saint is overcoming his SIN;
but the sin is overcoming the sinner.
oh, what a terrible thing if sin have
the upper hand! No hidden mama
is yours. The symbols of religion you
may look at, but real religion must be
stranger to you. You know not It's
enjoyment. You do not taste 1t. IL
Is a hidden thing. Heaven, too, VIII
be hidden. You hear of its gates or
pearl-but they will never open to
you. You may catch the distant ac-
cents of its songs.-but in those songs
you will never join. And that white
stone" cannot be yours. You have no
joyful anticipation of heaven-but a
fearful looking-for of fiery indigna-
tion-or else the insensate resolve not
TO think at all And the new name"
no! you cannot read it. You know
God by no such name as makes you
seek his company. The thought or
him renders you unhappy. and there
fore you Danish it from your mind.
You are not now alarmed, but soon
the spell may be broken, and you may
find the chains riveted upon your
soul forever
| fancy | hear you say: II wish that
before 1t is too late l could escape!
But mine is a hopeless case. My heart
is hardened against the gospel, and
evil habit has so got the mastery over
me that have no power to begin this
conflict"
No, you have no power; but one has
visited this world and taken our ma
ture, who can help you. The mighty
Son of God became the suffering Son
of Man that he might be the liberia
tor of our enslaved race. He burst
open the prison doors that captive
souls might escape He stands near
you, ready to break off your letters
and strengthen you to fight the enemy
who has so long oppressed you. Tell
him your simple but sad tale; how
helpless, how miserable, how ruined
you are! Tell him you want to be
saved, but know not how to begin the
work, and ask him both TO begin and
complete 1t for you! Let your prayer
be this. BE merciful to me, sin
ner;" and he who came 10 destroy
the works of the devil" he whose ma
ture and property is ever to have
mercy and to forgive" will receive
your humble petitions; and though
you be tied and bound with the chain
of your sins, he, in the pitifulness OF
his great mercy. will loose YOU

The Way Everlasting.

A compass can direct ones course
in a forest; but a good trail is bet.
ter help and often saves from danger
as we'll as difficulty So absolute truth
is not so helpful in the conduct Of life
as the way Of righteousness, trodden
from generation to generation by the
feet of good men and women, that
path in which Jesus leads the way.
The Light Of the world lived our life
endured our temptations, tasted our
sorrows His goodness was humane as
we'll as divine, and so through the
ages increasing multitudes have fol
lowed Him, and have not walked in
darkness. The most human of books
is the Bible, because it is n record

that has been followed by the noble
living and the noble dead is plain and
practical. 1t guides safely in lifes

Value of Percale.

Not every woman appreciates the
qualities of pure white percale for
Summer gowns. This fabric is much
used by trained nurses for lightweight
uniforms which may be Numbered to
spic and spanness with much less
labor than linen requires. Percale is
also cooler than linen and is much
lighter in weight. II may be trimmed
with stitching and buttons in very
smart style. A young woman who al
ways looks as though she had stepped
out of bandbox always wears white
percale frocks in summer time. A
loose blouse with an open collar is
trinity belted above a short. straight
skirt, and buttoned boots of white
complete the costume.

Simple Trimmings.

Very little trimming is required for
the school frock This little may
be applied in the shape Of a little
handwork, ornamenting the yoke
the collar and the cuffs, or perhaps
the little strap which marks the side
closing. 1t should be sparingly used
however, and the design should be OF
the simplest Next TO the touch OF
handwork comes braid, and very lit
tie, again. of this is used. 1t adds a
trig, tailored finish to many a collar
and loops of it are certainly easier to
make than buttonholes. The large
bound buttonholes are used as deco
ration features in connection with but
tons. A few well-chosen buttons will
often add all the trimming that may
be desired.

TWO NEAT COTTON DRESSES
Costumes Easy to Wash, and May Be
Made Up in Almost Any Kind
of Thin Material.

Either of these simple dresses would
BE found easy to wash, and might be
made in any cotton material.
The one on the left is in pale pink
cotton wolfe with a ring spot of a
iarker shade. The skirt is made with
front panel and band at foot cut in
me, and set on with piping of pink
nercerized lawn; scallops are cut in
sides Of panel, in which buttons are
sewn. The bodice also has a panel
ront, trimmed to match; lace col
ar and black satin bow add a smart
,ess
Materials required: Az yards wolfe
10 inches wide, 1 dozen buttons, "
rard lawn 40 inches wide for piping.
Gray and white striped Bingham is
ised for the other design. 1t is
made with deep band at foot OF
Charlevoix county herald., 1912-10-19
Collars and Cuffs,

Detachable collar and cuffs are al
ways a good idea. These may be
made from linen, plque. or any of the
lingerie materials. Sometimes a plaid
or striped fabric Is corralled for this
purpose. A little of the plaid or
striped silk can be used most effec-
lively to give the desired touch OF
color to an otherwise sombre blue
serge dress. 1t may be added as a
hem, with the yoke and sleeves of the
plaid in true kimono style. or it may
only appear as binding to the dress.
with perhaps a perky little tie of IL to
hold together the collar. 1t will prove
a useful adjunct in either direction

More Black and White.

The black charmeuse or fine cloth
fkirt-with the short cutaway "Dircc-
toire" coat in white charmeuse, is pc
culiarly smart, especially when it has
large black buttons and is worn with
a folded jabot of corresponding period.
This has certainly been the best class
OF model this season, and rumor tells
us that "Directoire" modes are in no
cause moribund.

Ikirt, set on with a piping Of material
cut on the cross. and beaded at sides
and back with material cut SO that
he stripes run horizontally.
The bodice is Magyar, and has a
yoke of lace with a strip of insertion
beneath; material in the cross out
lines the yoke. Lace is used for the
cuffs.
Materials required: 5 yards ging-
ham 80 inches wide. "A yard insertion,
q yard lace, 1 dozen buttons.
