LIGHT PLANT SOLD
The H. H. Williams Company Electric
Light and Power Plant SOld-Plant
to Pass to Parties Outside of Town.
7 & |. Officials Interested.

Files & Paxson, attorneys, have con-
sumated the sale of the H. H. Williams
Company Electric Light Plant to par
ties connected with the Toledo & In
diana Railway as stock and bond
holders. While the negotiations for
the purchase of the plant have been
conducted under the name of D. D.
Schenck, President of the T. & |. Rail-
way, it is question as to whether or
not the Toledo & Indiana should be
considered as the actual purchasers.
In all probability there will be formed
another and distinct corporation who
will hold the Wauseon plant. The
deed will be formally executed this
week and the new owners will take
possession. Approximately $4,000
was the amount involved in the pur-
chase price which of course includes
all franchises and contracts for SER
vice now in force as well as poles.
cables, wires, transformers, etc.
The first ordinance granting right
to use the streets and alleys of Wau-
seon for the purpose of setting poles,
putting up wires, etc. was GRANTED
Nov. 9th, 1889, to H. H. Williams;
this ordinance carried section which
amounted to contract between H. H..
Williams and the village for lighting
the streets and public buildings. There
seems to be no limitation as to rights
to use the streets for conducting cleo
tricity for light and power though the
contract for lighting was limited to
ten years. In 1900 an ordinance was
passed which granted to the H. H.
Williams Company the privilege of u.s.
ing streets and alleys for a period of
fifteen years; this franchise expires
February, 1915. The present contract
for lighting with the H. H. Williams
Company expires in June, 1915. Meth
er of the franchises mentioned above
is exclusive; the village has the right
to grant the same privileges to other
parties for the use of the streets for
this purpose providing such use does
not interfere with the privileges al
ready ia use. This leaves the way
open to competing company or for
municipal plant.
The present plant has an extension
to Ottokee that carries current for
light and power to the infirmary and
also to the streets of Ottokee. The
general impression is that the Arch
bold and Delta light and power plants
will be taken over by the same cor
poration which is purchasing the Wau-
seon plant. There is also a rumor
that the Wauseon plant will, in time,
be dismantled and the electric cur
rent will be supplied from a central
plant at Stryker; there is however no
authentic information on this SUBJ
iect,

A Letter of Loving Gratitude From
One Who Grows Old Gracefully and
Sweetly.' Fond Memories, Peaceful
Present and Bright Prospects For
the Future.

The following letter we are very
glad to publish for many reasons. We
are sure that it will be filled with sig.
nificance and pleasant suggestions te
those who are acquainted with the
writer and to the younger generation
it gives concrete example of hap.
py and contented old age, something
worth living to attain. We are re-
minded by this letter Of Browning's
lines:
"Come, grow old along with me-
the best is yet to be-" and of Julia
Ward Howe who at 90 found life very
beautiful and happy.
My Dear Friends:
I am here at the old home. I had
birthday; this place his been my home
for fifty-six years-is dear by many
sacred associations.
Here in the midst of fruits from the
tropics-out of door flowers bright
and fragrant, fresh picked from the
Pacific slopes of Washington and
many beautiful things wrought by
skilled hands that have made dainty
things for their great grandchildren;
they tell of enduring friendship. On
my table is a great platter heaped
with booklets, filled with choicest
gems from best authors, lovely cards
of greeting and messages of loving in
terest in my comfort and happiness.
inwoven with memories Of the long
ago-all these make me feel that it
is very sweet to grow old.
I have often felt during the past
year, realizing that eighty years was
beyond the common lot of mortals
that the gates Of the Eternal City
were ajar and the many loved ones
before were beckoning me ito enter
but with all these evidences of loving
friends still making life's pathway
brighter in age I think of Oliver Wen.
dell Holmes poem, Home Sick in
Heaven, that even in the celestial
real one might long to clasp the HAND
of dear ones left behind.
I would like to thank each one per.
sonally for the joy and blessing they
have brought into the past week fol
me but as this is impossible ! will
ask the Tribune editors to give you
through its columns my sincerest
thanks and assurances that their re.
membranes will be treasurer by my
family: no mother ever enjoyed warm.
er filial devotion than has been giver
me, always, and these will be precious
to them and kept as mementos Of the
honored friendships their mother en-
joyed.
Ever yours sincerely,
JULIA C. ALDRICH.

HOPE FOR RAIN-SOAKED HAT
Generally May Be Trimmed Fresniy
and Worn for Second Best, at
the Least.

Because you are disguised with the
wretched appearance of your unfor-
tunate rain-drenched hat, don't throw
it away. Having allowed it to dry
gradually by placing it on a fiat sur
face out of reach of the suns rays
study it carefully and see what can be
done to make it wearable-n not LOT
best-at least for general running
about. If the trimmings are OF mowers
and ribbons, they won't be worth the
saving and the chances are that the
crown will be denied and discolored'
But as the brim of hat rarely gets
badly injured by a drenching rain you
can face it freshly and then cover the
crown with a length of broad sash RID
bon. Beginning at what is destined TO
be the low side of the hat, tack one
edge of the ribbon close to the JOIN
ing of the rim and tie crown, then
draw it in soft ripping folds all about
the top and toward the high slde'
where the two ends Of the ribbon may
be shaped and wired to form pair OF
rabbit ears Join these under DO"
of narrow velvet ribbon.

straight sleeves are set into drop

The front edges above the belt are
cut in square ends which fall in fold
at either side. The right side is gath
cred into the short belt section, which
buttons across the left side, and the
material below the belt is laid in a

the hem.
Some scant fullness in the back is
caught under another high belt sec
ton, buttoned to the coat at either
end.
Shepherd checks and plaids are
quite as much to be considered as
ever, for they, like navy serge, never
actually go out of style; but this year
they are entirely dependent on cut
and graceful hanging from the Shout
ders for success. All coats, whether
for separate wear or accompanying
skirts, are hung from the shoulder

PIMPLES ALL OVER FACE

1413 e. Genessee Ave-, Saginaw,
Mich.-"Cuticura Soap and Ointment
cured me of a very bad disease of the
face without leaving a scar. Pimples
broke out all over my face, red and
large. They festered and came to a
head. They itched and burned and
caused me to scratch them and make
sores. They said they were seed
warts. At night 1 was restless from
itching. When the barber would
shave me my face would bleed terri
bly,. Then scabs would form after
wards, then they would drop off and
the sO-called seed warts would come
back again. They were on my face
for about nine months and the trou-
BILE caused Disagreement while it
lasted.
"One day read in the paper of the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. l re-
ceived a free sample of Cuticura Soap
and Ointment and it was so much
value to me that l bought a cake of
Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura
Ointment at the drug store. 1 used
both according to directions. In about
ten days my face began to heal up.
My face is now clear of the warts and
not a scar is left" (Signed) Leroy

Crane Seed Oil.

Oil from grape seeds has become a
byproduct of the wine industry in por-
tions of France, Italy and Wuertem-
berg. The Bulletin of the American
Association of Commerce and Trade,
published in Berlin. says that the first
pressing, obtained cold, is OF edible
oil; that extracted by pressing and
heating is dark and bitter, and is used
for lighting purposes and in the max
ing of soap. 1t is described as good
substitute for the expensive oils used
in the textile industry. About 20
pounds of oil may be expressed from
the seeds of grapes yielding 26.42 gal
Ions of wine.

Good Cheer Aids

q L010tipe- Tonic.

The temper of the family and the
good cheer around the table depend so
much on the good digestion Of each
individual present that the experiences
of some former dyspeptics who over
came their trouble should be Of inter
est to those now suffering in this
way.
The best advice one can give-but 1t
is advice that is seldom heeded-is to
eat slowly and masticate each mouth
full carefully. However, If slow eating
and careful mastication fail the next
aid is one close to nature, DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. This remedy is
an excellent digestant, and in addition

has helped him to a longer and hap

years as he has since taking this ex-

NOT HlGH-PLAcED AMBITION
Magazine Poet Surely Could Not Be
Accused of Having Too Strong
Desire FOR Wealth.

Apropos of Marshall R. Kermochan,
VINO makes $50 a year by writing
music, magazine poet said:
To make $50 year out of music
is pretty good. It's as much as l, a
successful poet, make out of verse.
When they see my poetry in all the
magazines people think that l live
at the Ritz-Carlton. Alas, they don't
know the magazine poetry rates:
A young lady said to me the other
day:
I like your poetry so much. 1 have
often heard the xpression-beautifu

poets dreams like?
Well, my dear young lady, l re-

Some of the newest hat models are
large and fiat and very deliberately
garnished with flowers, lace and rib
bon. Maine is a very important fac
tor in the construction of these
models, black and the most delicate
tones of pink and amber having the
preference. Ostrich plumes of con-
trasting color are favored by this de-
signer, who also achieves remarkably
beautiful results by Frightening up her
black models by giving them exquisite
ly tinted tapestry or chiffon crowns.
