We have all heard Of ghosts. but none
OF us have ever seen one. It's the same
way with coca cola "fiends;" you can
hear about them but you might search
for them until doom's day and you
would never find one. Physicians who
have treated hundreds of thousands Of
drug-habit cases. including opium, NOR
phine, cocaine, alcohol, ETC., say that
they have never seen a case where the
use of Coca-Cola has 80 fastened itself
upon the individual as to constitute a
habit In the true sense OF the word. AL
though millions of glasses of Coca-Cola
are drunk every year, no Coca-Cola
fiends have ever made themselves WIS.,
ible at the doors Of the sanitariums for
the treatment of drug habits.
The Coca-Cola habit is analogous to
the beefsteak habit and to the straw
berry habit and the ice cream habit.
People drink Coca-Cola first because
they see II advertised and thereafter
because II tastes good and refreshes
their minds and bodies. They drink 1t
when they can get 1t and contentedly
do without II when they can't get IL.
If you had ever witnessed the rawlings
of a real drug fiend when deprived Of
his drug, II you had ever observed the
agony he suffers, you would never
again be so unfair as to mention Coca
Cola in the same breath with the
"habit-forming" drugs.-Adv.

NEW CHERRY is IN DEMAND
Northport Black Is Cherry That Is Go
Ing to Make Leedanau County
Famous.

A half case of Northport Black
cherries have been secured by tho
Western Michigan Development bu
bureaus glass jar exhibit.
These cherries are in such demand
that II is very difficult to secure even
quart of them. Tho summer re-
sorters in the vicinity of Northport
are paying fancy prices for every one
of the cherries that can be had. c..
A. Nelson, who is the owner Of the
few trees now in bearing, was selling
the cherries at 50 a case when new
customer appeared and agreed to take
ten cases every second day at S2Ge
a case If he could have the fruit.
The Northport Black is the cherry
that is going TO make Leelanau coun-
~ famous as a cherry section. The
trees. which were secured by mistake
fifteen years ago, are now in their
prime. They are the only known treso
of this variety. During the last few
years thousands OF buds have been
taken from the trees and new stock
has been budded and this stock is
now growing on many Of the orchards
In this section.
To Exploit Western Michigan.
A fourth edition of the illustrated
magazine, Western Michigan, Fruit
with Flavor" is being outlined. The
first magazine appeared in the fall of
1909 and was given circulation Of
100000. The second magazine, with
new illustrations and new reading
matter, was distributed In 1910 and
10000 copies were sent out. The
third edition OF 100000 copies was
published early In 1912 and now the
fourth edition, which will consist OF
$4,000 copies. is to be issued. Pho
tographers are securing the Western
Michigan country for farm and orchard
scenes to be used in illustrating the
new magazine and the old story OF
conditions as they actually exist in
the Western Michigan country will be
told in q new way.

USE THE "MOVIES" TO BOOST
Western Michigan Is to Be Shown
in Moving Pictures as Part of
Advertising Campaign.

The story of Western Michigan Is
to be told In the early future by means
of moving pictures. For four years
OF beauty spots and the hundreds of
attractive farm and orchard scenes
have been used in the lectures describ-
ing the region. The plans now being
worked out call for a series OF moving
pictures. Among these will be one
which will picture Western Michigan
as the greatest playground in the
world. II will show boat races. bath
ing scenes, beach parties, fishing trips,
picnics, etc.
A second reel will tell the story OF
general farming IL will show the
farmer blowing his ground, preparing
the seed bed, sowing the seed, caring
for the crop and eventually harvest
ing the same. This series OF pictures
will also show the kind of house the
farmer lives in, how ne takes his
produce to the market, how he enjoys
himself after the days work has been
done.
The story of fruit growing will be
studied by series of pictures that
will show the planting of the fruit
tree, the trimming of the same; II
will show how the fruit grower cult.
Yates and sprays, how the different
fruits are picked and packed and pre-.
pared for shipment. This story will
be worked out so as to show the diff.
ferent fruit industries, such as straw.
berry, raspberry. cherry, peach and
apple. The reels as soon as perfected
will be shown in such sections OF the
United States as are likely to con.
tribute settlers to the Western Mich.
igan country, also In Western Mich.

But the sailor wasn't rescued. He
