MORE SILVER NEEDEDI*
EBIEHDS OF THE SE_TTI_TEI<r
We have an obligation soon coming
due, that, owing to the present financial depression, we are not prepared
for and can not get an extension of
time. Itis an imperative necessity
that we have money.
Do you owe us?
If it is on subscription, please hand
us even part of it as even halves and
quarters are mighty precious just now.
If not owing us, here is a great
chance for both of us, (but good for 10
days only:) We will send the S_£_m-.
_n_L, ($1.50), and J-Tew York Tribune,
($1.00), to any address for $1 for one
year! Can you miss it? It is an actual loss to us* but not so great as it
would be not to meet our obligation.
Bear in mind that this offer is for 10
days only! Yours,
--" Paemeb & Jssimioss.

the soup, wait'till it cools.

Grant township with a large harvest
of hay and wheat just garnered, was

large one and falls very heavily on Mr.
Presley, as there was no insurance.
Do not miss the "ready print" pages
of the SE_mira__. Although folded
inside they are none the less interesting. Among the interesting things

of the special session, beside all the
leading state news. A special feature
is our nearly full page cut of all the
members of the national executive and
legislative bodies.
The following from one of the Reed
City papers of this week will be of
pleasant interest to the many friends of

It was soon learned that he had taken
unto himself a life partner, and she was
none other than Miss Yera, daughter
of George H. Gilbert of this city, and
well and favorably known in the young
people's social circle.    It was something of a surprise to the public. They
were married Sunday at the home of
the bride..  Mr. Ash came to this city
from Clare one year ago since when he
has been the popular clerk in Mrs. A.
Jacobson's store and is now engaged
with her successor, Mr.Hyman Joseph.
Mr. and Mrs. Ash will leave in a few
days on a visit to the world's fair.
They have the best wishes of  many
Mends." - • r
