Coral-A dam is being constructed
on the little Muskegon river at Morley
for the purpose of generating cleo
tricity to be distributed to that viii
lage and nearby towns.
The dam will have a 14-foot head
and be capable of developing 800 to
400 horse power. This is said by the
promoters will develop enough electri-
city to supply lights and power for all
towns they propose to reach and have
some reserve. Arrangements have
been made to take~over the lighting
plants at Howard City, Lakeview and
Edmore. Franchise privileges are be-
ing asked for to enter Sand Lake,
Pierson and Coral The prices asked
by the company are said to be the
usual prices asked in towns now hav-
ing lighting plants. The matter will
probably be voted on at the spring
election in Maple Valley.
1t is said the promoters expect to
be setting the poles for their power
lines by May 1st and be ready to de-
liver electricity by July /.

MESSAGE OF JOY TO
cATARRH SUFFERS


The popularity and Increase in
sales of Hycmei here in Bedding are
unique in the ANIMALS Of medicine.
Such astonishing successes have been
made by this remarkable remedy
that the proprietors have authorized
Wortley & French to sell every pack
age of Hyomei under an absolute
guarantee that it will knock out ca
tarrh for good. II it does not, the
purchaser can have his money refund
ed by Wortley & French.
Hyomei is no ordinary remedy. 1t
is pronounced the only method of
treatment that sends by direct in
halation to the most remote part Of
the air passages, balsamic air that
destroys all catarrhal germs in the
breathing organs, enriches and puri-
fies the blood with additional ozone,
and gives permanent and complete
relief from cstarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit is mex
pensive and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
medicine dropper and bottle of
Hyomei. The inhaler lasts lifetime
and if one bottle does not cure, an
extra bottle can be obtained for a
trifling sum. 1t is more economical
than any remedy advertised fer the
cure of catarrh, and is the only treat
ment known to us that follows nature
in her methods of treating diseases
of the respiratory organs.-adv.

Seeks Judgment


Sabina Burns has instituted an ac.
tion against William M. Rooms and
others, seeking to recover the sum
of $1,619.91 from the estate of which
defendant was executor.
: Plaintiff states that William NJ.
Rooms was on August 6, 1890, made
executor of the estate of Mary Mon
ahan with the stipulation that he
should render an account eighteen
months later. She claims that execu-
tor violated his bond in that he did
not file an accurate account in the
specified time.
She charges that executor on Dec.
9, 1909, sold real estate of the estate
for S2,100 and that he took this money
and converted it to his own use ex-
cept $617.54. She says that on June
8, 1915, common pleas found executor
indebted to estate in sum of S1,4S2. ~
and that a Judgment was entered
against executor in this sum which
he was ordered to distribute She says
that on Jan. 10, 1916, written notice
was served on William M. Koons as
executor of estate of Mary Monahan
and that he failed to make distribu-
tion.
Plaintiff asks for judgment in the
sum of s1,619.91 for the benefit of
plaintiff and the defendants as their
interests may appear. Robert L. Carr
and Belcher & Connor are her at
torneys.
