the ribbons and use either arm hugging our girlies with no thought of harm. Give us a horse and a carriage, I say, such as was used in our grandfather’s day. We are too fond of this bustle and rush; we are too prone to get caught in a crush. Let’s travel slower, we can’t live but once; what is the sense of these fool auto stunts? Too many joy riders try to raise hob; anxious to give the grave digger a job. Backward, turn backward, let’s travel more slow, for why in Sam Hill are we hurrying so?—Norwalk (Cal.) Call.

Ball Game Rained Out.

Still Doing Good Work.

What promised to be an intensely interesting game was brought to a close Sunday afternoon on Alexander’s Field in the last half of the third inning by rain. At the time the shower came on the score stood 4 to 2 in favor of Veedersburg, with New Richmond at the bat, a man on first base and no outs. Quite a goodly crowd was in attendance and ns a return for their disappointment in not seeing the game finished they are promised a double header ou the home grounds later iu the season at which only the customary price of 15 cents will be charged. Manager Campbell announces the schedule for the future as follows:— June 22—New Richmond at Darlington.

The Andrew S. Clements Agency was very busy adjusting losses recently as the cards of thanks below show. This Agency which has been doing insurance business for more than 25 years and has paid many thousands of dollars for losses by fire and lightning, and windstorm. This year it has paid over 160 losses by windstorm, covering all parts of the county. His promptness and satisfactory adjustments of losses has won for him the largest fire insurance business in the county.

John Jenkins, the real estate man, made a deal Saturday on a farm near Reed City which was one of the very best sales he has ever had. The farm in itself is located a short distance west of Reed City and is considered, by the best of authority on the subject, to be one of the best and finest improved farms in central Michigan.

It was formerly owned by Charles Randall, and is now the property of B. F. Ulrey of Shadeland, Indiana. In buying the farm Mr. Ulrey h.is done no more than to follow in the footsteps of many other persons from outside of the state. In the last few years many families have moved to Michigan, and are drawn as if by some magnet to the excellent farms, and also to the opportunities of making an investment that is sure in time to cause them to realize a good sized interest ou their money and to insure them a regular income.

Verdict for Cloyd.

After deliberating for almost twenty-four hours, the jury in the Cloyd-Tucker damage suit, tried in the Tippecanoe circuit court, last Thursday morning returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, placing his damages at $250. Winfield Cloyd, the plaintiff, is a rural mail carrier of Romney, and William Tucker, the defendant, is a farmer living at Chalmers, White county. Mr. Tucker, driving an automobile, and Mr. Cloyd, riding a motorcycle, had a collision at Ninth and Columbia streets, LaFayette, and Mr. Cloyd was badly hurt. He brought suit for $5,000 damages. The case was filed in White county, went to Carroll county on a change of venue and then to Tippecanoe county on venue. The trial was a hard legal fight.

The woman who would be tastefnlly and well dressed at moderate cost, yet not follow the ceaseless vagaries of fashion should buy from this splendid showing of fine Silks at special prices.

The variations from the season’s modes will be accepted at once as lending a new note of individuality and distinction to the wearer. The last word from authoritative designers rings out true and clear in this interesting display at these special prices.

Backward, turn backward, oh Time, in your flight; let’s travel slower awhile for tonight! We are so weary of automobiles, tooting and zipping and grazing our heels. Give us a horse and a buggy once more, such as they used in those calm days of yore. Let’s amble onward with never a fear that there is something to get out of gear. No punctured tires or spark plug to watch; never a throttle to let out a notch; not any danger of our patient breaking tbe limit of law as to speed. We needn’t listen for fear of a smash; we needn’t worry there may come a crash, but with our sweetheart right there by our side, over tbe, smooth country highway well glide. Hang up
