Useful
New Invention
Enables Anyone to Play
Piano or Organ With
out Lessons

A Detroit musician has invented
wonderful new system which enables
any person or little child to learn to
play the piano or organ in one even
ing. Even though you know abso-
lutely nothing about music or have
never touched a piano or organ, you
can now learn to play in an hour or
two. People who do not know one
note from another are able to play
their favorite music, with this method
without any assistance whatever from
anyone.
This new system is called the
Numeral Method We have secured
the sole agency from the inventor
and, as we are desirous of at once
making it known in every locality,
we are making the following special
free trial and half-price offer to
everyone.
You are not asked to send any
money until you have tried and are
satisfied with the new method. We
are willing to send it to you on free
trial, and you will not have to pay
one cent unless you desire to keep it.
There are no express charges to be
paid, as everything will be sent by
mail. Simply write us letter or
postcard saying: please send me the
Numeral Method on free trial" If
you are satisfied after trying it, the
Method and fifty different pieces of
sheet music will cost you only SIS,
although the regular price of these
is $40. You should not delay writing,
as we shall not continue this
special half-price offer indefinitely.
Later on, the Method and fifty pieces
of music will be sold at the regular
price. Address Numeral Method

Fish and Snake Story

Several set nets, each containing a
few fish were taken by Special Fish
and Game Division Officers Charles
e. Hanes, of Lima and Harry Lein-
niger, of Celina, from the Miami and
Erie canal feeder Three of the nets
were dragged from the channel at
the bend a short distance east of the
Western Ohio bridge; the other four
were found in the water at various
points between the L. e. and w. Min
ster branch and the bulkhead. The
fact that but small number of fish
were found in any one is considered
evidence that they had but recently
been raised. The nets were destroy
ed. No arrests have thus far occur
red. Three good-sized water snakes
were captured during the search. A
fourth snake made it's escape.-St.
Marys Argus.

year could hardly be brighter. A few
weeks ago there was much concern over

reports indicate that the outbreak has
practically been suppressed and within
another month the movement of live
stock will be restored to its normal con
dition. On the principle of Safety
First the National Western Stock
Show was abandoned, but the business
interests of Denver have taken up all
the features of the show which can he
handled without danger and are adding
new features and Stock Show week in
Denver promises to be practically as
large as ever. StOckmen are going to
gather there from all parts of the west
for the purpose of talking over the sit
uation and making plans for the coming
of this annual gathering in Denver Is
the opportunity to get together nd com
pare notes and acquire an accurate un-
derstanding of the situation before
commencing their year work. Denver
is going the limit this time to make the
show features of unusual interest. The
railroads are making the usual reduced
rates and there is no question but that
the attendance will be large.
