NICK CARTER
AT Temple Theatre, Saturday,
Sept. 9th.

Nick Carter, The New York Detec-
tive, is not one of those plays that are
written over night and then wished up
on an unsuspecting public. 1t is the
result of months OF patient study and
work upon the part of its author, Mr..
w. c. Herman, who spent weeks and
weeks gathering material from the
business and social life of big cities
Nor did he stop there. He went into
the police courts and talked with the
judges, interviewed criminals, got the
opinions of noted criminologists and
listened to the stories told by unfortu-
mates brought before the bar of justice.
From information gathered in this man.
ner he has moulded play full of ro-
nance, drama and comedy. There are
none of the stereotyped theatrical tricks
used to bring about a situation, but
everything revolves in a manner at
once natural and plausible. The story
is delivered with what is called the
'punch" from the very moment the
curtain rises and you feel that you are
living in the very atmosphere of frefined
pure and wholesome melodrama. Its

novelty of construction, engrossing ac-
ton and admirable character drawings
make il masterpiece in the field OF
drama. Ruth, the heroine, by one
single act of deception in which she
means to wrong no one, heaps upon
her head a mountain of difficulties
which crush and drag her down into
the very depths of despair. She fights
for the love of her, husband and match
es her wits against those of detective
whose strong sense of duty will allow
him to spare no one who commits an
unlawful act. The scenes between
these two characters are SO strong and
intensely dramatic they rise to the
heights of tragedy. Ruth, by her pas
sionate love for her husband and her
innate sense of horror finally rises
above the difficulties that surround her
and finds herself upon higher plane
than before and the road to happiness
straight and narrow. While it is essen
TALLY womap's play, there is direct
appeal to the chivalrous nature of man
and both sexes feel throb of sympathy
and rejoice at the victory OF woman
that has suffered much. This stirring
play will be at the Temple Theatre,
Saturday, September 9th.

EDUCATIONAL
MAIN FEATURE OF OUR
COUNTY FAIR
Good Exhibits and Good Crowds
Make Fair Success
H. L. Olney Elected President
for Ensuing Year.

That county fair must be education
al as well as furnishing amusement is a
foregone fact and this year above all
others the gentlemen who had the well
fare of the Charlevoix County Agricul-
tural Society in hand have done more
toward developing this feature.
The new Educational and Fine Arts
Building stands as monument to the
progressive element in CharlevoiX
County. The new structure was form
ally dedicated Wednesday afternoon
when j. c. Ketcham worshipful master
of Michigan State Grange, delivered an
address. In it were fine exhibits from
public schools in every section of the
county. The Boyne City schools easily
landed the first prize for the city school
having as fine an exhibit as could be
desired. Its manual training and do
mestic science departments showing up
particularly well and bringing home to
the people of this city the necessity of
having like courses in our schools here.
In the East Jordan exhibit was a little
domestic science work from the West
Side school which Miss Winters was in
strumental in securing.
In the District schools, Waloon Lake,
through the effort of Miss Nellie Mad
daugh came in for first prize and they
had very creditable exhibit.
At the Floral Hall was the usual fine
exhibit OF fruit, grains and vegetables,
although the quantity was not up to
what it has been, owing to busy times
on the farms which kept number of
exhibitors from participating. The fancy
work exhibits Div. j. was fine, as
was also the booths. occupied by some
of our local merchants. In one was
several tables manufactured by the
East Jordan Planning Mills Co. and sold
by C. H. Wilmington.
The stock exhibits were all good ex-
cept for cattle which for some reason
fell off considerable from year ago.
In the matter of attendance the
crowds were nearly up to the number
OF year ago when an aeroplane was
featured. On Thursday, "School Day"
over 1000 people were on the grounds.
Four passenger boats ran excursion
into our city as well as the E. j. 6 S.
r. r. There were more automobiles
on the grounds than ever before.
East Jordan Military Band furnished
good music for the entire three days
which was appreciated by the crowds.
The balloon ascension feature was more
or less of fizzle, the aeronaut going
up only once-Wednesday highland
then only after the crowds had left town
for home and it was nearly dark.

HELME EXPOSES MORE
NICE BEAUTY HINTS
State Dairy and Food Commits
sioner Discusses Change.

Some time ago this, department issu-
ed a bulletin dealing with various
beauty remedies which could be pre-
pared at home and which were run
ming in various Michigan newspapers
by Mrs. Mae Martyr. Mrs. Martyr pur-
ported to answer various mythical cor
respondents in regard to their alleged
needs for improving their style of
beauty both physically and mentally.
Since the issuance of that bulletin Mrs.
Mae Martyr seems to have dropped off
the map so far as Michigan newspapers
are concerned and the field is now be-
ing occupied by the 'Home Beauty
Parlors" of Betty Dean. We are not
privileged to have the acquaintance of
Betty but from looking over her effu-
sions of home made beauties, they
sound just like the same ones that Mrs.
Mae Martyr was putting over on us.
There is Spurmax, CanthroX and Get
rox and all the other various lines. Per-
haps Mrs: Martyr after using her super
l1afiSeA Afoiaet articles was able TO marry
sardine and thus change her name. A
any event in the language of the Bible
"While the hands are the hands of
Esau the voice is the voice of Jacob"
A correspondent who signs herself
"Mayme complains to Betty that she is
rapidly getting as big as balloon and
the same shape and she wants some-
thing to bring her down to her normal
weight. Betty has the something and
advises her to put or. of Pornotis in
one and one-half pints of water and
take tablespoonful before meals. She
assures her that this will bring her
avoirdupois down to the exact weight
she wants it without any dieting or un-
due exercises. Parnotis, of course, has
to be obtained at the drug store. It
costs you SOC under that name but if
you will get OF. of Baking Soda and
OF. of Sodium Sulphate and mix and
dissolve, you will have Parnotis at the
cost of about sc which will cost you SOC
if obtained at the drug store.
Another correspondent is troubled
with failing eyesight. She complains
that her eyes are dull and dim and she
wants something to brighten them up.
Betty has something that will make the
eyes bright and shining and relieve all
soreness OF the same. Absolutely "safe
and inexpensive" All you have to do
is to get an ounce OF "Crystos"
and dissolve it in pint of water
and apply two or three drops daily.
The result is supposed to make your
eyes as bright as Henry Waterson's
star-eyed Goddess of Reform. Crystos
is to be obtained at the drug store for
SOC. It is composed Of Boric Acid 60
per cent, Common Salt 20 per cent, and
Borax 20 per cent. For less than 10c
you can get sufficient amount to make
you bright Eyes" for 40 years, provid-
ing the stuff works. We trust Betty
will not change her name again after
this bulletin appears because it keeps
US guessing to recognise her under her
various non de plumes.

STOLE NEW CLOTHES
unknown Woman Got A Good Suit
And Stylish Hat At Local Stores

The authorities are hunting for
the address of a well-dressed woman
who last week entered several stores
of the village and then departed
leaving the storekeepers IN disgust
A woman giving her name as Mrs.
Albert Bayes, entered the Berton
Staple store and looked at various
suits and finally selected one valued
at $3.50, and said she wished to
take it to her home on Pearl Street.
From the Staple store she went to
Mrs. Belknap-Miner's where she
tried in vain to procure a hat. From
there she went to Mrs. E. NJ Harris
where she passed the same bluff, only
giving the name of Mrs. Horace
Jackson. Here she procured a hat
valued at $500.
Early the next morning she and
her husband boarded the train and
have disappeared from view Sher-
iff WOrthen was notified and immed-
lately began a search for the missing
parties.

AUTO HIT FREIGHT CAR
G. A. CalderwOOd's Auto Went Down
Bank Off Railroad Street

Wednesday afternoon while driv-
ing down Cross street to Railroad
street, G. A. Calderwood' automo-
bile went over the bank, hitting a
freight car which happened to be on
the siding. Mr.. Calderwood says
that he stalled his engine. on account
of two teams. He accidently left the
gears in the low when he started his
engine. The car started off and he
jumped to the running board to put
On the emergency brake. Although
he got the brakes on, he was not
in time to arrest the speed of the
car which reached the edge of the
II foot bank, and skidded down,
a coal car which was on
the siding. The Kissel truck was
summoned from Silsby's garage,
tackle was brought and the car
was rescued.
The car was not seriously dam
aged, the radiator was badly STAYED
up, and the headlights were put
out of commission. 1t is extremely
fortunate that there was no one in
the car, as it would have meant
a serious shaking for any passengers.

tion was adopted:

lieve it is for the best Fezigious in

VILLAGE TAX SO CENTS
Rate Reduced at Special Village
Meeting Held Monday Evening
Total Tax $l.7O.

At the special village meeting held
Monday evening at 7.3O the vote of
the regular village meeting assess
ing tax of so cents on a dollar Of
the grand list was rescinded and
a tax of so cents on a dollar was
voted. w. c. Rodliff served as
chairman Of the meeting. There
was no opposition although some
time was spent in trying to find out
what rate of taxation should be fix
ed to provide money for current ex-
penses, A. H. Gleason, Charles A.
Heyer and c. G. Braley taking part
in the discussion. The talk brought
out the fact that the damage to
the village streets during the spring
food was nearly $4,000. 1t is ex-
pected the rate voted will allow the
payment of this extra expense.
AS the tax rate now stands the
total rate for town and village is
$1.7O on the dollar. With the large
ly increased grand list it will pro-
duce many thousand dollars more
revenue but the direct state tax of
10 cents on dollar will take the
larger proportion of it.
