Grand Rapids, Mich.
By GEORGE FITCH,
Author Of sat Good Old SiWash.7

X RAND RAPIDS, Mich, is a city of
7 10000 people, situated on the
- Grand river, at q point where it
falls Is feet In one mile, making more
noise in so doing than a fat man fall
ing down 10 flights Of stairs.
Grand Rapids was founded about So
years ago as a trading post and mission
airy station, but after wandering aim
lessly along through the census returns
for a few years, it found a real object
in life. This object is apparent to any
one who visits the city, or who talks
with a Grand Rapider for two minutes.
Grand Rapids makes furniture for the
United States.
Grand Rapids has been making more
and more furniture until the Grand river
is now lined with furniture factories,
and the middle of the town is full Of
furniture exposition buildings. Twice a
year the furniture buyers of America
come to Grand Rapids to pick out the
latest styles in dining room tables and
fine old mahogany beds. No American
couple can marry successfully without
the aid of Grand Rapids.
Grand Rapids Is situated in a valley
two miles wide, and also runs up the
hills on either side After its people
have grown rich in the factories along
the river, they move over to the east
side Of the slope, and buy automobiles

from Detroit. This enables Detroit
people to buy more furniture from
Grand Rapids. AIichiganders always
stick together.
Grand Rapids also makes most of the
carpet sweepers and sticky fly paper for
the United States. 1t is surrounded BY
fruit orchards in such profusion that the
Grand Rapids boy who has not hooked
peaches Is considered too good to live.
However, Grand Rapids boys are above
the average, thanks to the Grand Rapids
Press, which conducts a combination
newspaper and good boy factory, all
under one immense roof. Grand Rapids
boys have two ambitions-to become
carriers for the Press, and to own a
furniture factory.
Grand Rapids makes good use of its
river. 1t runs factories and carries
traffic to Lake Michigan. Originally
the river made a tour of the lower
wards Of the city in the spring, but it is
now confined in a concrete straight
jacket, and is under severe restraint. The
river divides Grand Rapids in two parts,
which are recOnnected with seven bridges,
and disconnected by town rows from
early history.
Grand Rapids has $1,000 Dutch, and
the best political asset in the city is the
ability to make a speech in Hollandish-

Editor FL PasO Herald;
Your correspondent r. in The

ence to the change of name Of a por-
ton of Mundy avenue to that OF Noun

The change in name only applies to
that portion of Mundy avenue lying

apply to Mundy avenue proper running
from the west line OF Putnam street
to the west line Of West Boulevard.
The writer is one Of the siguers TO
that petition and would under no
circumstances sign a petition asking
for the change Of name Of the whole
Of Mundy avenue as he has the utmost
respect for the memory Of the late H.

The last block on Mundy avenue
is the only section of the street the

HUSBAND MUST BE AMERICAN
Best in the World, and Perhaps She Is Right

A young American singer who re- turns to this country after a success ful career abroad, expecting to reap here high hoonrs and much money, an nounces that she is a candidate for matrimony. but only American men need apply. Her verdict is that the Russian husband is cruel, the German Italian broke" the Spaniard jealous and lazy and the Englishman domineer- ing These generalizations are un- doubtedly too strong. There are as good husbands in each of the coun- tries as anywhere, but the foreigner who deliberately hunts an American girl is apt to be an adventurer, and we hear of all the bad cases. We do not hear of the thousands of American women happily married and living in every country in Europe.
 It is to be hoped that the singer will find a husband with none of the bad qualities mentioned and with all of the virtues We feel at liberty, how ever to point out that there are some mighty bad husbands in this country and that American birth alone is no guarantee of perfection. It is true, however,, that the ordinary American husband is the best trained animal in captivity. He eats out of his wife's hand and signs checks and is thankful for the opportunity. There are millions of such husbands now and millions of candidates for the yoke.-Philadel- phia Inquirer.

Building Ships on Mountains.

Boat building on a mountain top sounds peculiar, to say the least, but such is being done in Switzerland, says the American Machinist. Sulzer Bros have under construction at Win terhur a 200-foot passenger boat for Lake Geneva. It will be fitted with Diesel engines of 1,400 horsepower. Fischer Wyss & Co. at Zurich, are building 200-foot tugboat for the RiY- CT Rhone in southern France.
 In both cases the vessels after erec- tion at the works must be disassem- bled and shipped in knocked-down condition to the place of launching, there to be reassembled.
 The turbine-building firm of Fischer Wyss & Co.,, Zurich, Switzerland, has under way the largest Pelton water wheel ever built. It is for Rio de Ja- neiro, in Brazil, and will develop 19,000 horsepower The head is 280 m ego feet) and the speed 375 revolutions per minute. This firm has installed Pel- ton wheels in Italy to operate under a head of 1000 m. (3,280 feet.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
 TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
 Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get large bottle of this famous old recipe for about 50 cents.
 Don't stay gray! Try it! No one can possibly tell. that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair taking one small strand at time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap- plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark. thick and glossy.
