Joseph H CoUiaa Will Be Fesrltts is theDischarge of His Duties.

I t is a foresoae conclusion that Jo-seph H. Collins—now. ssistant prose-CUIJDK attorney—will become the lawhead of Shiawassee county \.a January1st next, Tne only possible thingwhich will prevent is tbe possibilitythat Republicans will be too busy No-vember stii to attend to the first dutyof every American citizen, viz., tovote. That possibility is so remote Itis safe to say that with New Year'sday Mr. Coiiins will eater upon thedischarge of his duties for which behas had a very thorough preparationthrough the efficient positions he basheld—circuit court commissioner,deputy county clerk, assistant prose-cutor aad in ever? one of which hehas shown that confidence imposed inhim was not misplaced. So will it bein the higher position; tbe people canbe assured that Joseph H. Collins willexert himself to command .their ap-proval through bis every official act.His ability is not questioned, nor ishis honesty or sincerity. His generalknowledge of the law and his fouryears practice in criminal matterswill make him both a safe counsellorand a fearless prosecutor, a man inwbose hands the interest* of the tax-payers will be guarded while all lawswill be impartially enforced. Prose-cuting Attorney Collins will honor tbeoffice which the voters will give himNovember 8th by a large majority.

WHS NOVEL AFFAIRFRIDAY AFTERNOON AND

IT AND I CLUBS UNITED

In Celebrating: Hallowe'en 'fflfith Mrs.E. L. Mason Monday Evening.—

Held Contest.

Much amusement was tbe resultof & joint meeting1 of the Frid>vAfternoon Ciub and the U and IClub, held Moaday evening at tbehome of Mrs. E. L. Mason, whenthe members celebrated Hallowe'enon quite an extensive scale. Aboutforty members of the two clubsturned out, and the ladies reportthe time of their life.

Nearly all of those present weredisg-uised and presented very strangeappearances. In most instances noeffort was made to represent anyparticular character, the aim beingto present as ridiculous and hideousan appearance as possible, and it issaid they succeeded wonderfully indoing so. A number of the ladiesrepresented characters of men, butwe understand there is a heavypenalty hanging, over the editor'shead to keep him from divulgingany names.

The house was kept in darknessexcept for what light was furnishedby numerous jack o' lanterns. Asvoices are generally good means ofidentification* "mum was the word"for a considerable time, and allefforts to draw out even a few wordswere without avail.

A large red lantern carrying adanger sign hung at the gateway tothe Mason yard, while a large skriland cross bones emblem adorned thefront porch.

After some time had elapsed, dur-ing which the ladies had ample op-portunity to guess who so-and-sowas, tbe grand nuwfa took place,when all removed their masks. Itgoeajrithout saying that many sur-prisft were on hand, and it wasfound that very few had made anyguesses that were any where nearcorrect.

Several contests were indulged in,including <?andle blowing, pie eat*ing, and eating apples suspended bystrings in the archway. Some tenmembers took part in each contest.

In the candle blowing contest thecontestants were blindfolded: Acandle was placed on a small table,and the trick consisted of walkingup to the table, taking three stepsbackward, turning around threetimes, then advancing to the tableand extinguishing the candle bvblowing once. Like many suchstunts, it looked easy, but wheutackled the trick was found to bequite a hard proposition after all.No one succeeded in blowing outthe candle, so the prize of a candlestick was awarded to Mrs, MaudDerr, who came nearest to succeed-ing.

The pumpkin pies to be used inthe pie eating couurat looked prettygood, so there was uo trouble inselecting ten willing contestant*.Mrs. (vlen Youn<j clearly outdist-anced all competitors at this gameand was awarded the prize of a largepumpkin pie. It is said that theaverage time consumed in eatingthe quarters of pies "like motherused to make'' was about 25 seconds.

Mrs. t'harles Hathaway was suc-<-essful in the apple eating contest,eating more in the allotted time orfive minutes than all other contest-ants together. The prize was abasket of apples.

After the contests were over light

tfreshments were served by theisses Parry and Campbell.All those-present report an even-

ing of novel entertainment, and theeditor knows of at least one clubmember who didn't get home untilquite late.

Get Out EveryRepublican Vote

Chairman Bigelow Urges Importance of Voting toInsure Success for tbe Ticket

To the Republican Electors of Shiawassee County:—The election of our splendid ticket depends soley on

whether each individual Republican in the county fulfillshis obligation as a citizen by going to the polls on Tuesdaynext and casting his vote for the nominees selected by thepeople at the primary. It is of the utmost importance thatevery Republican vote is polled, and i appeal to you to seethat this is done. Sickness alone ought to be the onlyreason for failure to vote. Wrth a full vote out, Shiasasseewill do its part toward rolling up an overwhelming majorityfor Hon. Chase S. Osbom and the other state candidates;for the return of Hon. J. W. Fordney as representative forthe 8th district; it will ensure the election of our legislativenominees, thus doing our part toward the election of Hon.Charles E. Townsend as United States Senator by the nextlegislature; and it will mean success for the entire ccutityticket. As food party men, we ought to be witling to de-vote the liitte time required to brine about this result, Iurge each Republican art to neglect this most importantdut. Vote and see that your Republican neighbor votes,and then success will come to our party on Tuesday next.

Let the slogan be: Get out every Repubfkan vote.

Yours for an old-time victory,

It is believed that she will re-turn to James Neal the major por-tion of the money be left In her careand that the case will be settled.

Withthe present scarcity of farm laborersat tbe unusually high wages offered,the si* nation is becoming a seriousproposition to handle, and it looks asthough the fanners will have to dotheir own corn-husking in the winterif they "pinch" out enough time toget their potato crop under cover be-fore the ground freezes.

Wise Man Wmmm

HE WISE MAN discovers exactly what be need* to beand endeavors pezgisteiitiv to acquire the essential*.

It is easy to blunder badly abort these essentials. Lotaof men are fnriooelj anxioas to many. They axe persuadedthat life is inposeibie without oae particular woman, often todiscover that life is impossible with her. SunHarfy, moneypojralarlv is regarded as neeessnry to happmoa, although weall number men among oar acquaintance far more miserablem't costly residence than Uwj wrre fhen Wmg in a kumfaj*

Indeed it i» fairly evid«it that to the majority of haman beings"what one is** is of infinitely greater importance than ''what one has.'*There are, of coarse, exception*, but they tie «MnpantiTely few. The p*s-aion for mere possession is rare. The miser is abnormal. Men love moneybecause money means power, or, maybe, good wine.

Women lore money because it means costly do&es and many jewels.The desire to wear beautiful clothes is entirely admirable. A womanoften expresses bcr personality with splendid oetnpJeteness in her dress.We are apt, perhaps—particularly if our incomes are small—to denounce-the lore or diamond* as vulgtr; but, after all, children and all lovable,simple tool* adore thjngs that glitter.

In attempting to discover tbe secret of happiness—which in the aimof all philosophy—the initial difficulty is the variation of individuality,tbe fact that one man's food ia another man's poison. But this difficultyis superficial. We arc all more gtfike than we are inclined to admit: Be-side*, I am not concerned with the extraordinary man, with the possessorof the grot soal or with him *bo has no soul at all.

The industrious and the lazy, the eilent and the loquacious, thedomesticated and the gypsies, the married and the unmarried, the bondend the free, believers and unbelievers, socialists and anti-socialists, areail divided, some happy and some unhappy. The greatest thing in theworld cannot be obtained by opinion, conviction, circumstance, or virtue.

The unhappy man is the dull man, and the dull man is the man with-out a soul. That is the truth, and the whole truth. The dull man eataand drinks and works ard sleepe and grumbles and sniggers and is just arate payer. Most of us have to do all these things. We have to be ratepayers. The horror comes when we we just rate payers—and nothingmore.

Think of the nappy people one knows, and inquire! I know a clerkwho ia happy on $15 & week because his wife thinks he is a hero and hethinks she is beautiful. He is not a hero to you and me, but in her dreamworld Launcelot is nothing by comparison, while in bis dream world sheis another Helen:

I know a nun who is happy dreaming of the glories of a wonderfulgray wonder-world. 1 know a Salvationist who ishappy because he is a eon of God. . I know a cheer*ful, roystering, often penniless, writer who is happybecause to him all men are good fellows and allwomen adorable. The happy socialist dreams of the *brotherhood of men; the cantankerous socialist vearnato interfere with his fellows.

It often happens that the men who stimulateimagination and encourage our dreams themselves failto attain happiness. They stand on the niountair*and point out the way, but they themselves neverreach the land of delight. They are, however, thethe great men, and you and I are the common way-,farers. Their way is not our way, and it may be thatthat their sorrow is more precious than our jov.

And now comes the very strangestpart of this rather strange or at leastunusual attempt to make a match andwin a fcrtane for a, friend at one andthe same time oa the port of Bearcatand myself. By Jove, tt certainlydid cfve DM a start wkea I discovered

this was the way It happenedto vet ahead of my story.

We had made a pretty quick ranto Mofthbary «s4 hs4

It'sths only thing la the world we aren'tequally enthusiastic about. She won'tadmit it, bttt sometimes I'm afraid It'*because abe prefers the Americangame of baseball! Fancy! But ofcourse if she does it's all the faultof that American stepfather of hersfor bringing tier up In tb» States. Potthen, naturally, he couldn't helpbeta; an American—I try to remem-ber that!

As 1 was saying, however, we hadseen the match played to the end inspite of the languid interest dis-played by the feminine members ofour party, and had lunched at thsNorthbury inn, a Jolly little den ofa place, and at about half after twowere speeding towards home again.

The roads were fairly decent,though there had been a good dealof rain lately, and the machine hadbeen running along so smoothly thatft did ray heart good to see her. Wehad left tat. main roud when we hadpassed Wye village, for one that Jedmore directly to the castle, and hadslowed clown as the road turned out jto be rougher th.au I thought—when !the worst happened. I was driving Jmyself, and in steering to clear a !jutting tree I ran the big car straight jInto the dickens of a rut and our hind j•wheel *'<mt in to stay. I killed the jengine at once and jumr>ed out to Isee what was to be done, disgusted jenough. I can tell you, though of !course I couldn't possibly have known !

the thing was so deep, for it was halffilled with water. This short cut isa favorite one of mine, though mychauffeurs have often warned meagainst taking a big car through thewoods that cover Wyckoff rise at thispoint. Tbe trees a r* so thick andthe road so narrow.

Tbe worst of the business now, asr I soon found out, was that there was

no Jack to be found In the car's kitof tools with which to raise her, andI remembered with chagrin that Ihad taken it out myself in huntingfor something else and had left It inthe garage. Even the satisfaction ofblaming some one else was denied meand I looked at Pedcrson. the chauf-feur, in dismay.

PART TWO.CHAPTER VI.

ft v u n t until later that same aft'eraoon of our Northbury trip, whenLady Vincent and i had ascended toour rooms to drees for dinner, thatI found a chance to tell her thenc^s.I can always be sure of an uninter-rupted chat with her then.

"And so you saw uer sitting in tli»automobile alone in the middle of thewoods?" asked Dearest, vhen I hadfinished my breathless recital. /

"Yes, that is as tar a« I could see,she was alone," I replied. "But youforget th« man's laugh and thechecked coat. There was a man withher right enough, and though I didn'tthink «o at the time, 1 think now thatmakes th« thing much more mysteri-ous"

"Of course there wa* a man withher," remarked Dearest "H was alover's tryst, » plain as plain canbe!" Dearest Is so romantic. Butthen at the same time I'll bave toadmit she's nearly always right.

"But who under high heavencould U have been?" I cried, nevermore puxiled in my life.

"We know it wasn't Freer; he rvaswith us ail the time, and Terhune hasbeen In London all day!"

"He said be was going to be inLondon," remArked my wife with theslightest possible emphasis on the"satd." I gaped at her a moment,theft setoed her shoulder.

"Do yoa mean to say it was Archi-bald?" 1 cried, "who was the ownerof the cheeked coatr*

"1 didn't say." she replied, "onlyIt does look a Bttta like it, doesat it?Toa see ha eoaMat go to the cricketwith as beraaee he had to go op toLoudon, aad she. became she had ahaa«Vh«. VoOa tout!"

"But we saw the wire," I objected.-Oh, aa to that!" she said, " a ttto-

"So It Is!" I cried, "and you'reright It moat have been old Ter-hune! What a dunderhead' I've beennot to fee It before! But I say," 1added, less exuberantly as a thought•truck me, "if that's the case, whatdoes be mean by it, Dearest?

"Sounds rather promising." saidDearest "Do go and see if theycan't help us out. I don't wantAgatha .Lawrence to walk all thatway home in this mud!"

"Very well," I said, "but It soundsas if they were in need of assistancethemselves! Why else should theywant to stop in the middle of thewoods? However, 111 make the at'tempt. Freer, you stay by the la-dies, and III go and see what I cando!"

THE FIRST TASTELearned to Drink Coffee Whtn a Baby.

It parentu realized the fact t ia t cof-fee contains a drug—caffeine—which isespecially o&nnlul to children, theywould doubtless hesitate before eiringthe babies coffee to drink.

"When I was a child In ray moth-er's arms and first began to nibble

I things at the table, mother used togive me sips of coffee. As my parentsused coffee exclusively at meals Inever knew there was anything todrink but coffee and water.

"And so I contracted the coffeehabit early. I remember when quite-young the continual use of coffee eoaffected my parents that they triedroasting wheat and barley, then,ground it In the coffee-mill, as a sub-stitute for coffee.

"But it did Dot taste right and theywent b&ck to coffee again. Thai waslong before Postum was ever heardof. I continued to DM coffee until Iwas 27, and when I got Into offlc*work, I began to have nervous spells.Especially after breakfast I was ROnervous I could scarcely attend to mycorrespondence.

"At night, after having coffee forsupyer, I could hardly sleep, and oarising ia the morning would totl weakand nervous.

"A friend persuaded me to tryPostum. My %ife rnd I did not likett at ftrct» but later when boiled goodand strong it was fine. Now we Yronltinot give up Postum fcr the best coffeewe ever tasted.

HAS DIFFICULT WORK

Yet CoiuitfMioner Boutwell SatisfiesPublic By Square Methods,

There are offices and offices» andthe hardest one in the lot to fill tothe satisfaction of the public gener-ally t« that of county drain commis-sioner. The comtnissumer has tomeet difficult problems at every turnand it in indeed a tactful man whocan handle them in such a way asnot to make at least several enemiesfor every drain laid. There is theproblem of locating the drain wherethe parties interested think it shouldgo, the amount of land to bo taken,the assessments for benefits and athousand other minor questions onwhich pi >erty owners are individu-ally insistent that their particularvie»r shall be accepted as final. Itrequires a keen man with a greatamount of tact and patience to solvethese perplexing propositions sothat a ''square deal" may be givenall. The man who undertook thework with the view of satisfying in-dividuals would soon be in hot waterand wonld never dare face the elec-torate for a second time.

Fortunately for Shiawassee coun-ty its drain commissioner is notafraid to meet squarely and withoutfear or favor every question and hisdecisions have universally met withfavor. This does not mean that Mr.Bontwell uaa nevei made a mistakein his work—he will tell yon he has—but he has always done what hebelieved to be right. It i* a rarething that any roan can fill tbe officecf county drain commissioner in thein«n2er John Bontwell hft» for fiveyears and then be renommated foranother term without opposition.

That's the Policy oi Candidate Eaih, 'for County Treasurer

Asked how his candidacy for theofflc© o£ county treasurer was being jreceived by the people whom be hadmet about the couuty, Frank fl.Bash surprised tie by his reply: "Ihave been so busy since the primarywith work for the BhiAw*jisee Mu-tual Fire Insurance Co. that I havehad scarcely a moment to do anycampaign work ox to think of my!chances. However, in common withthe other candidates on the excellent Jticket named at the primary by the jRepublicans of t:>e county, I expect jto be elected and shall do my fullshare between this and election dayto briag about a victory for theticket." And that is characteristicof Frank Rush—business first everytime, and that well cared for, he isready to do his part in life toy thebenefit at otheis, whether in a localor general way. True, we compelledMr. Rush to admit that he had takentime to care for the fall work on bisfarm, as any sensible farmer woulddo uudftr the circumstances — andagain, Mr. Rush proved his motto—business first. We believe this isthe correct principle, and that it willwin for Mr. Bush many votes out-side the ranks of MB own party, andwe have yet to hear of a single Re-publican who is dissatisfied with hisnomination for county treasurer.

That be will bo easily ejected isnot doubted by any one; that he willirivo dilizent attention to the dutiesof the office and look well after tb-sInterests of the taxpayers is notdoubted; that he will be an honor toboth hiu party and county is notdoubted. The only qoestion indonbt is as to tbe number of voteshe will ran ahead of his party ticket.

You will never have occasion toregret voting tor "Business First'Frank H. Rush for county treasurer.

A GOOD CLEEK

Hoiking Is Left Undone inITichoIs' Office.

A. L.

We venture the assertion that notone voter in ten in the connty cantell .rho is running for county clerkiu opposition to Albert JL Nichols,the present efficient and popularclerk, and it makes but little differ*ence anyway as tbe people will re-elect Mr. Nichols by a good big ma-jority. To do otherwise wonld IMJto reverse atl roles of the past whenRepublicans who have served satis-factorily have always been returnedfor another term. If any personsdoing business in the clerk's officein tbe past two years has ever hadany reason to find even a little fanltwith the way he has been waitedupon he has kept the matter to him-self. On the contrary if all whohave come from the office pleasedand with a good word for Mr. Nich-ols and his deputy, Mr. Burnett,vote as they feel the majority willfar exceed anj-thiug Mr. Nicholsmight hope for. As we huve saidpreviously, the office is in No. 1shape in every way, the records areall neat, accurate aud right up todate, and they will be kept so justas !<>n£ as the present clerk occupiesthe office.

The real history of these UnionPacific coal land frauds has beenburled in the archives or tbe taterfordepartment, and has only row cometo light. It appears from the recordswhy the facts have long been sap-pressed, for these records show thatMr. Garfield, before being appointedsecretary of the Interior to relieve E.A.

Baker said that were he to fix thelate? of that road, he would Increasethe rates even as high as 20 per cent,for in his opinion the D. £ M. rall-•*ad was entitled to higher rates thanother roads in the state, for with thepasMug of the lumber industry alongthe road the passenger traffic woulduot place the road on a. paying basta.

The bearing was for the purpose ofobtaining further testimony to presentto the Wayne county court !n chan-cery, where the D. ft M. officials aretrying to have the recent rates or-dered by the state railroad commis-sion annulled. The road claims thatit the sew schedule on lumber andlogs is put into force, the road willlose considerable in a financial way,which it is not in a position to do.

Wenley Discusses Kant in Lecture.Dr. Robert St. Wenley, of the Uni-

The subject of DoctorWenley's first lecture was "Kant as aMediator Between Two Epochs," butthe speaker announced that && SUB"jects of the various lectures as an-nouneed would have but little signifi-cance, as the lectures would be con-tinuous and the subjects are Intendedonly as slight guides to tbe matter tobe considered in the various talks.

lector Wenley spent the greaterpai't of his time preparing his hear-ers for the discussions to follow, byreviewing the great events, from anintellectual viewpoint, preceding: thebirth of Kant early in the eighteenthcentury.

Have tHe Ta«s> A" the Frame BentDown Until You Have the Drop

You Want, 8ays Expert.

Compare the rifle and the shotgunaad you will almost Invariably findtb* rifle has much less drop of stockthan has the gun. This is, of course,due to the rifle makers not wantingto carry a large assortment of ridesfitted with stocks of different shapes,perhaps following the idea tfcM mostpeople have that a shotgun must fit,but any old rifie Is good enough. Andthat is what moat of them get. Also,if you'll watch the owner handle thegun aad the ride you 11 find th&re isa big difference. With the gun builtfor htm he keep* bit head up andbis eye on the target. With the riflehe puts hi* bead down and hunts forthe sights—and even then complainsof over-shooting. It doesn't occur tohim that this Is due to the too highmodern front sight and the toostraight stock.

There is only one way to remedythis latter difficulty without giving upyour last cent to have a special stockbuilt for you. Simply have the tangson tbe rifle frame bent down untilyou have the drop you want—inaiis, tk№ one that brings the sights iattne so taat yon wooMst be both-ered where you couMnt see the sightsw*t could see the o**B&e* of tb#game.

The largest of tnestations—fhat of Reswitz—controls anetwork of lines 117 miles in length.Another controls 83 miles, and thereare numerous other stations alreadyestablished or being built. Whole vil-lages and small towns have been con-nected. Associations of landed pro-prietors are the chief owners, but aidhas been given by the provincial repre-sentative chamber.
