BELIEVE PROMPT ARRIVAL or
MILITIA PREVENTED TROUBLE

\ great many people now believe
that much rioting and bloodshed was
avoided by the troops coming in as
rapidly as they did. and many bust
ness men are declaring that the sol
diers ought to remain as long as the
strike lasts. The sentiments of these
were voiced in a telegram sent 10
Gov Ferris by Houghton man. as
follows:
In company with two others, |
made trip of thorough inspec-
ton through the strike scene, COM
mencing at Painesdale ana
through to Calumet, "A distance of
% miles, visiting every location,
shaft house and militia camp for
the express purpose of ascertain
ing the sentiment regarding your
noble act in dispatching troops
into Houghton county. We inter-
viewed all classes, including citi-
zcns, miners, members of the mill
tia and business men, and with
out dissent or adverse criticism
from single person they all APP
prove your action. 1t Is the unan-
imous opinion of all lawabiding
citizens that the arrival of the
troops prevented a reign of riot
and bloodshed which would have
disgiaced the state of Michigan
forever.
Regret Business Loss.
Merchants are fearful of seeing
their business reduced to almost moth
ing If the strike continues very long.
This used to be Gods country" said
= man who conducts a big retail store
but they are making "A hell out of II
with this strike. 1t isn't only that we
are fearful of rioting through the
streets. The soldiers will be able tn
stop that fast enough. The effect on
business will he such that 1t will take
months for Calumet to recover. the
working people will run into debt II
the strike keeps up. and the more they
owe the longer IL will take them TO

Mystic Love Spells With Apples In
Fore an Lands.

Mystic Love SPELLS WIN Apples In
Fore en Lands.
Apples enter into many Christmas
spells In Austria on Christmas eve
the apple must be cut in halves in the
dark and without being tou> he'd by the
hand The left hand half is then placed
In the bosom Of the diviner and the
right hand half behind the door Of the
bedcllamber. Then at midnight, should
the spell have been fully carried out,
the spirit or astral Of the beloved
one appears, standing beside the half
which was laid behind the door.
Another charm is to cut an apple in
two and count the seeds in each half.
If the numbers are even marriage will
be soon. If a seed is cut in two there
will be trouble in the course of love.
and should two seeds be cut there will
be early widowhood.
S1cilian maiden throws the fruit
from her window into the street and
watches. Should it lie long without
being picked up she will be widowed
soon after marriage. Should it be pick
ed up by woman marriage will not
be within the coming year, but should
it be picked up by Il man then she will
be welded before the next year is
ended.

Importance Of Healthy
Kidneys.
Barton Readers Should Learn to Keep
the Kidneys Well.


The kidneys have big work to do.
All the blood in the body is coursing
through the kidneys constantly to b.
freed of poisonous matter. Tt is a
heavy enough task when the kidneys
are we'll, but cold, chill, fever or
some thoughtless exposure is likely
to irritate, inflame and longest the
kidneys and interrupt the purifying
work.
Then the aching frequently begins
and is often accompanied by some ir-
regularity of the urine-too frequent
passages, sediment Or retention.
Thousands testify to the wonderful
merit of Doan's Kidney Pills, a rem
edy for the kidneys only, that has
been used in kidney troubles 30
years. You will make no mistake in
in following this Barton citizan's ad-
vice.
Van 3. Hitchcock, Main St., Carton,
W., says: II consider Doan's Kidney
Pills a valuable packache and kidne y
remedy. [, as we'll as others of my
family, have used this medicine for
kidney complaint and lame and ach-
ing back and it has done world OF
good. J never took another remedy
that brought such relief as Doan's
