Kaiser Bids Multitude
Pray on Eve Of War

Now To the human factors OF the
war. put Wilhelm ii first: he has
sent to the front six stalwart sons (;
he goes himself; his nephews, cous.

go not as shirkers, as ornaments. as
inspiration, but as soldiers and SAIL
ors. I saw the kaiser on the day OF
his arrival from Potsdam. That was
on Friday, July 81. A tremendous
bass voice bawled from window OF
the kaiser chambers overlooking the
Lustgarten: Quiet, the kaiser VIII

the kaiserin, by Princes Adalbert and
Oscar. walked on to the raised ter
race. He looked pale, yellow, old, sol
dierly, resolute. I saw his lips NOV
ing: but knew his words only next
day. The speech contained defense
of Germans efforts for peace, which
were In vain. The enemy forced on
war! Note the sentence: Man
druckt mir das schwert In die hand!"

A Strong Trio

Michigan is fortunate in the char
acter of its three gubernatorial can
didates this year. All are strong, In
tellectual forces. Prof. Ferris, who
has served one term as governor, has
been a safe and sane governor and
his administration has been charac-
terized by breadth OF vision and de-
ing his level best for the interests OF
the state. Prof II. R. Pattingill, OF
Lansing, the Progressive candidate
for governor, has long been an educa.
tional leader, an editor, an orator who
has sought to inspire the young peo-
pie OF the state with higher idealg
and advance thinking. Hon. Chase s.
Osborn, the Republican candidate,
stands on his record of the policies
put into execution during HIS term
two years ago and II was a brilliant
record, one that placed Michigan In
the vanguard of the states along
many lines. Mr.. Osborn probably has
no peer In the state among its many
cultured men. A world traveller,
distinguished author, for many years
o Michigan editor, his work in what
ever way he has turned his hand has
been high grade, elevating and with
out selfish motives.
We submit that the candidates. OF
all these scholars speaks well for the
Judgment and the high class of Michi-
gaD's electorate.-Howard City Rec

Why So Many Are Wounded

The remarkable increase OF the per-
centage of wounded over killed. in the
battle Of Liege, merits more than q
passing notice. Il Is believed that
the new small arm for infantry Is just
what military experts have been striv-
ing to attain for years. Though not
prompted by philanthropic motives. II
has been their aim TO develop a wea-
pom that would reduce the number of
killed and increase the wounded. The
reason for this IS obvious. When q
man r. killed, his body lies where II
fell until the battle IL over. II wound

TO the rear. Death thus takes out OF
action only one man, while wound
removes two or more.

gagement mentioned above were made

PINKLET S
The Laxative That Really Does Cor
rect Constipation.

Constipation means that poisonous
materials which should have been eX-
PEELED from the body are being re-
tanned. At first there may be only
feeling of fullness and discomfort but
soon the appetite fails, the digestion
becomes disordered, the tongue coated,
the breath offensive and there is bad
taste in the mouth.
The first step in correcting const1pa-
ton is to stop the use of strong purga-
tiyes. Substitute for them the mild,
non gripping but effective laxative
pills, Pinklets. Strong, harsh purga-
tives are of little value in the treat
ment of constipation because they
wear out the muscular activity of the
bowels and finally lessen their sens1-
bility TO even the strongest stimula-
ton. The continued use of purgatives
always brings on chronic constipation
instead of correcting it. With Pink
lets you need have no such fear. They
assist the bowels and liver just enough
to get them in proper working order.
ANY druggist can supply you with
Pinklets at Is cents per bottle. Write
today to the DIR. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, n, Y, for a copy of the
Pinklet book which tells all about the
treatment of constipation.-AdV.

Ground was broken Monday morn
ing for the cellar of the new house
which will be erected by Percy '. Hill
on the lot on State street formerly oc-
cupied by his old home and for which
Tracy & Metcalf have the contract.
The house will be of Colonial style
with an ell. of frame construction,
three stories in height and will be set
on a granite foundation laid up in ce-
ment. An idea of the size of the house
can be gained from the statement that
the ground plan is 40x106 feet. There
will be nine rooms on the ground floor,
eight on the second floor, while on the
third floor will be ball room, also
three other rooms for the servants. The
huse, which will be finished in the lat
est style and filled with all the mod
ern convenienees, will when finished,
cost between $4,000 and $4,000 and will
be one of the finest residences in the
city. 1t will be read for occupancy by
the middle of June, 1915.

HANGED by features valued at over
$1,000 in novelties.
Now that, from a reluctant, linger-
ing approach, summer-grand glad
some sumner-has rushed upon us,
bringing foremost among its delight
full chain of open air events, the an
nual opening of, Island Park-why, to
those who have awaited impatiently
for this; to those TO whom each sue
cessive appearance of sunny June re-
calls through memory the last-the
simple mention that Island Park will
be Island Park on the 2Srd evening
of this month is enough. Yet, for all
the joyous throng eagerly awaiting
this announcement, even for those ia
miliar with Island Park in the past,
there is this season a surprise for all
as pleasantly in keeping with each
bonny evening as the cool fragrance
of the pine itself.
To you, usic-loving maiden: TO
you, dance-enchanted youth. just peep
at the significance of this, then judge
for yourself. Beginning with the open
ing, Tuesday evening, June %, and
continuing throughout the remainder
of the summer. Tinker's Famous
Singing Orchestra, comprising five &C
complished extraordinarily from
Boston. but now heralding from a
two-years celebrated tour upon the
road, will furnish-just think of it
music interspersed with high class en-
tertainment for dancing at Island
Park of evenings from s P. M. until
II o'clockl
With the appearance of himself and
orchestra, Frank Tinker will not only
put dancing, but the quiet, refreshing
musical enjoyment of evenings passed
at Island Park upon a basis never be-
fore approached. What with Xylo-
phone quartet; vocal and brass quar-
tet; electric saucer bells; organ chime
trio; ETC., do you think that Island
Park ever saw the like before
Yet in addition, Mr.. and Mrs. Tink-
er, professional stage and ball room
dancers, will give exhibition dances
featuring the American One-step,
Tango, Hesitation Waltz and Boston
Waltz. Although bringing the latest in
dancing from New York, Mr. and Mrs
Tinker are, above everything else, tall
ented artists, possessive of inventive
originality and inherent love of music
Thus, many steps quite their own
should be introduced at Island Park
as the season advances.
Remember, Thinkers Famous Orches-
ira will be at Island Park, Remem-
Der, the opening is the 23rd of this
month! Remember, that on the Fourth
of July dance suitable to the occa-
sion, afternoon and evening. will be
especially arranged by Mr.. Tinker and
company! Apd above all remember the
earnest desire to please that has fos-
tered this coming store of amusement
for those who love the freedom of a
summers evening, music, and the
park. Admission % cents-Advt.
