STILL FAITHFUL TO STUARTS7
Pretender of that Line to Britaln's
Throne Is Now Prince Rupert
of Bavaria.

There was once to be found in Brit
ain little group Of romantic senti-
mentalists who remained faithful to
the Stuart line, and celebrated on jan
uary 80 kind of Jacobite feast day.
A writer in Living Age remembers
seeing postage stamps bearing the like
ness of the ''pretender," who happened
TO be a princess of Bavaria. These
were attached to the envelope by the
side Of the official postage stamp, thus
constituting a source of annoyance to
the serious minded Victoria.
Since the death Of his mother, Maria
Theresa of Bavaria, few weeks ago,
ex-Prince Rupert of Bavaria is now
the official Stuart pretender to the
throne of Great Britain. The muse Of

Flint, Mich, June 18th.
The four automobiles that
were in the garage fire Sunday
morning were insured in the
Citizens Mutual Automobile In
surance Company at Howell.
The adjuster for the company
met with the owners of the auto
mobiles and made satisfactory
settlement, making a total cash
settlement of $3,249.00. The
owners of the cars were very
much pleased with the prompt
and satisfactory adjustment.
The adjuster for the company
said they were able to pay in
cash because they had accu-
mulated a surplus during the
five seasons and had on hand
over $4,000. Automobile own
ers who take policy in the Big

good openings for a good machine

ing to poultrymen everywhere. The
1917 show was a big success. The
exhibits ranked high in number and
quality, and many prominent breed
ers were represented.
Being held ten days earlier this
year, the show comes at a time
when both farmers and fanciers have
money to buy birds, and many fine
ones are sold at the Dallas show. The
Dallas dates, Oct. 9th to 18th do not
conflict with other shows, but enable
breeders to advertise their winnings
this fall when birds command the
highest prices. The Victory Fair
Poultry Show will be the biggest
selling event in the country this fall.
The Pigeon Display will also be the
very best yet. The splendid part
played by carrier pigeons in the war
has endeared them to both breeders
and the public generally. A larger
number of pigeon entries than ever
before, and a greater variety of fine
breeds. will be represented at the
