Happenings of Interest Gathered fon, the
"Benefit of Oar "Readers.
Milan will celebrate the Fourth.
Ann Arbor will hold its first street
carnival July 24-29.
Dr. J. B. Angell, of the U. of M.,
was one of the speakers at the Flint
Jubilee celebration last week.
The strike between the hod carriers
of Ann Arbor and their employers has
been declared off. The strike lasted
four weeks.
Prof. R- M. Weuley, professor, of
ethics at the U. of M., will be given a
year's leave of absence which he will
spend in Scotland.
This is the time to cut the rye out of
the wheat fields. Millers say that the
appearance of rye in the wheat will
make a difference of ten cents a bushel
in price and every farmer- that raises
wheat can well afford to cut out the
rye for that.—Enterprise.
The auto-bus broke a spring in making the run to Chelsea, last Friday
morning, over those muddy roads. It
was claimed that the farmers had
plowed up the roads and piled sod in
the track. The Oldsmobile people at
Detroit sent an artist on the road to
take pictures of the piles of sod, etc.,
in order to prove, should they decide
to bring suit for damages, that it looked like spite work. The car was laid
off until Saturday, when it resumed its
regular trips.—Manchester Enterprise.
Mr. Elmer Allen, general freight
agent of the D., Y., A. A. & J. B. R.,
has returned from Cleveland, where he
completed negotiations which will enable the road to make with the D. & C.
Steam Navigation Co. a joint freight
rate to any point in the east or south.
The road is also able to reach northwestern points through the Anchor
line, and negotiations are pending
which will assure patrons through
freight service in all directions. In
the near.future the territory west of
Kalamazoo will probably enjoy this
service, but at present it is confined to
the consolidated interests. The ratts
will be the same as on steamboat lines.
The new service will be especially appreciated by fruit growers.—Times.
Skunks, Snakes and Toads.
Walking thirty rods across a wheat
field, we counted eighty-four * places
where the skunks had "du'g out <grub
worms, and the same conditions could
be seen all over the twenty-ad e field.
On one square rod there were sixteen
holes, each representing a dead grub
worm. Now the skunk does sometimes
break up an old hen that has stolen
her nest, but the good be does as au
insect destroyer repays many times the
damage he does.
The boys killed a small snake in the
barn and an examination showed three
mice in its'stomach. All of our snakes
excepting the rattlesnake and_ the copperhead", are harmless, and do lhe
farmer a great deal of good by destroying mice, moles and insects. A three-
foot snake about the barns or corn-
cribs will do more good to rid them of
rats than will half a dozen cats.
A few days ago we saw some boys
kill a toad, and they said they had
killed four-chat morning. It is said
that a toad eats twice its weight in insects every week, and everyone knows
that it is absolutely harmless in every
way. The skunk, the snake and the
toad are not very pleasant things to
look upon, but they should not be injured or killed.

Saw No Joy in the Kiss.
Kissing seems to have attractions
even these many centuries after it
originated, and not a few have been
the toasts upon this art of osculation,
of which a good New England divine
once said: "I never can understand
Tvhy people kiss; it seems to me not
only a purposeless, but a disgusting
habit." Evidently this sentiment was
that of Dean Swift, who wrote: "Lord,
I wonder what fool it was that first
Invented kissing!"

And you know why, too. It's
those gray hairs! Don't you
know that Ayer's Hair Vigor
restores color to gray hair?
Well, it does. Arid it never
fails, either. It stops falling
hair also, and keeps the scalp
clean and healthy. Do not
grow old too fast!
