Chelsea Liquor Bill.
. The city ol Chelsea means to fasten
the lid down tight. A hill was introduced in the State Senate by Senator
Peek- of Jackson, which will place
further restriction on the sale of liquor in that city. The principal
features of the bill are: "'No more
than four saloons are'allowed until the
population is over 3,000 and after that
only one to the thousand inhabitants.
Every man to receive a license of .Jijie
four who are permitted to sell' liquor
must have ten res'pectable. men to recommend him as one of good reputation. If the one recomme'nde'd is not
law abiding in the opinion of the village council they may refuse to grant a
license. The council can in addition
to the state tax of $500 put on a special
tax up to $500 which will go into the
village treasury." The bill is ordered,
to take effect May i, 1907.
passed" Birth' houses of the legislature,
but because of opposition which developed in the county it will not take
effect unless endorsed by the voters at
the next spring election and then will
not go into effect until January, 1909.

regents for tho new dental building to
be put up on the Winchell* site .opposite the present building- The new
dean of the department will be Dr.
Willoughby D. Miller, a Michigan
graduate who is an eminent deutal

Old "Grads" Object.
Drs. C. O. Goodrich and'S. B. Short
of Elkhart, Indiana, were' in Ann Arbor last week to visit their - ''Alma
Mater." They were both graduates of
the TJ. of M. of the Class of 1S79, the
former from tho medical and the latter
from the dental departments. ''They
were conversed with upon tho question
of the medical department to Detroit,
but could not see any earthly reason-
why this should be done. They -compared the campus and city of- todaj ' to
•what it was in 1879 and many were the
changes they - discovered. To Dr.
Goodrich the main interest was in the
hospital and through the courtesy of
the physicians he spent one entire afternoon in inspecting apparatus and
witnessing operations.

A Novel Entertainment.
A most interesting and novel entertainment ever put on in Ann Arbor,
was given in Newberry hall Priday

trial before Judge H. E- Bunker, in
which C. W. Wngner, a well respected citizen of lhat city, is lo be tried

On A Strike.
Every section hand along the Ann
Arbor railway is on strike for a io per
cent increase tn wages, the foremen
alone working. This was denied, and
the foremen were ordered to till the.
strikers' places at once. But there is
a dearth* of men who are willing to
work for the pay the railway thinks
sufficient, and so the foremen are
ambling over their sections each day,
having a very-lonely time.—Argus.   _.-
Binder Twine
LOOK afc the tag on your twine aud be sure that the
"Plymouth trade mark is on every tag.
IT means you will get twine made in the oldest and
largest independent mill world; twine that
NEVER fails to give satisfaction, being full length,
full strength; evenly spun and well balled,
DON'T be deceived by parties offering twine claimed
to bo "Just as good as Plymouth"
SOME farmers lose hours in the harvest field when
minutes count,
AAD condemn a binder that would work all right if
thoy used Plymouth Tvvine. "... . _ .
YOU  know by experience, that poor twine, though
purchased at a low price is an expensive article.
BECAUSE such twine is often short leugth, and so
uneven it breaks wheu tying the bundles.
REMEMBER  eyery ball of twine having Plymouth ]
trade mark and name of Lindsay Bros.
ON the tag is exactly as represented. ,,,-Do not wait
nntil harvest time; order now, because\
SOMETIMES the demand for Plymouth Twine is beyond our ability to supply.

of the Mail Order houses and we are oven hoses of competition.

repeated claim—one that has never been disproved—that we can sail a better
article of jewelry than any mail order house for as little or less money. -"That
is why we are so anxious to have those who make a practice of purchasing by
mail give our claims a test. If we could not make good, we would not be* saying a word about it, but the loss is yours, as well as ours, hence our -earnestnes
about the matter.
