Winamac Editor and Son Take 400-Mile Ride on Motor Cycle.

Carl Riddick and his 15-year-old ■on Merrill, of Winamac, took a fine motor cycle trip last week that covered a period of four days and during which time they covered a distance of 400 miles. They went to Albion, Mich., the editor’s former home, where his parents reside and the trip is fully described by Mr. Riddick in his paper of current issue. Speaking by way of comparison with a trip he made some twenty years ago over the same roads on an old-fashioned bicycle with a high wheel in front and a small wheel behind, he says: And in the twenty years that have since passed, there appears to be but one marked change. At frequent intervals, of old, there were the country saloons. At the borders of every town and at frequent cross roads upon the main highways were the road house saloons, offering frequent temptation to the farmers, the travelers, and the youth, to partake of refreshments that “cooled in summer” and “warmed in winter.” From the frequency of these places it’ would be supposed the liquor business flourished and was profitable, both in Michigan and Indiana. This week, in the whole ride of between 300 and 400 miles the writer does not remember seeing a single saloon except those in South Bend, Mishawaka and Walkerton, all in St. Joseph county, Indiana. “Is White Pigeon dry?” we asked a group of business men, old friends of our first days as a country editor and publisher. “Yes,” was the answer, “not a saloon in town.” And then was recalled the writer’s early trial in that town in his first and only experience holding a public office, when as the fifth member of the town board, which without him stood two wet and two dry, he was given his first taste of the underhanded methods resorted to by the liquor interests in its fight for existence. For months then, the first time in its history, that old town of White Pigeon, which is surrounded by the best farm land on earth worth from $l5O to S2OO and up, per acre, was without saloons, while church elders and class-leaders, some of them, feared the business of the town and country w’ould be ruined. But the sturdy stock in the good people of that fine little village has finally asserted itself, and a saloonless town is now no longer a shocking condition of affairs.

A Chemist’s Opinion on Skin Diseases.

Mr. A. F. Long, the chemist and druggist, says that in all his scientific and business experience he has never found any remedy so successful as ZEMO for the treatment of Eczema, Itching Skin Diseases, Dandruff, Pimples, Blackheads, and till diseases a . of the skin and scalp. He says that jnot only do its curative qualities make it popular but also the fact that it Is a clean, liquid remedy for external use. A wonderful improvement over the old greasy salves and lotions which are not only unpleasant to use but do not destroy the germ life that cause the disease. ZEMO draws the germs to the surface and destroys them, leaving the skin clear and healthy. Can be used freely on infants. Mr. A. F. Long will gladly supply those who call, with a free sample bottle of ZEMO and a booklet which explains in simple language all about Skin Diseases and how to Cure yourself at home with ZEMO. 2 Printing that pleases. “We print

We’ve broken a lot of high-spirited fellows to our clothes; and we expect to keep on doing it. The man we especially like to “tackle” is the fellow who thinks we can’t persuade him that these fine clothes, made for us by Hart Schaffner & Marx are better than any he gets made to measure; better for him; economy for him; better style, better quality. We’re convincing a lot of just such skeptics right along. The clothes do it; all we have to do is to get them tried on. Men are sometimes a I a little stubborn about that, but once they get into the clothes, that settles it. They are the best, the most economical, the most stylish, and about the only clothes that you know are all-wool. We like to get the other fellow, too, who thinks these clothes are too high priced; he’s easy, if he once gets started; the economy is too apparent.
