Pittsburgh Perfect"
Fences The Best Because
1. Stays" are Electrically Welded to the strands forming a perftct union
and aJi amalgamation with the strands not found in any other fence.
2. All stay wires are made as heavy as intermediate line wires. A
fence, hlio a Chain, is only as Strong as the lightest material in it. Think
this over carefully.
8.   No wraps; to got loose., to hold moisture and cause rust.
1.    No projections to iujurt. stock or tear wool from sheep.
5. Stronger at the joints than any other fence. Welded together with
electricity.
6. Guaranteed that the wire is not injured at the joints.
Gutu-antBod adjustable to uneven ground.
(juarantee-1 that stays will not separate from joints.
Guaranteed all right iu every particular.
Made by the most modern process and on the latest improyed machinery.    ■
11. Most of the weak points iu other fences aro on account of the 'vay
he stays are fastened,
Our stays are atnalgauiatdd with the strands by means of electricity and
the strength of the fence increased a hundredfold over the strength cf a
fence where the stays are wrapped or clamped on the strands.
You may pay more money for other fences but you cannot get as good a
fence as "Pittsburgh Perfect."

Student Injured.
Last evening at about S o'clock considerable excitement prevailed_ for a
short time as the result of a student
falling from an interurban car onto
the pavement. The young mau fell on
his face and sustaiueS numerous cuts
and bruises. He got a bad cut over
his left eye^ and Dr. Jas. F, Breakey,
who was immediately called, reports,
that be is having trouble with the
vision of one eye. The fellow's nose,
his cheek" and hands were also cut,-
tliough these injuries were not serious. The injured man is a student
and has heen rooming at 215 East
Liberty street. Owing to the fact that'
the young man did not wish out of-
town relatives to hear of the accident,
neither his physician, nor the people
where he rooms would make Ms name
public.—-\nn Arbor News.

Monument to Poe.
What has the world to do now with
the "weaknesses of a man who is dead?
Why should ft heap scorn on liis memory hecause of his personal peculiarities? Poe the living man was ■unfortunate, buffeted in turn by cruel circumstances outside himself and by the
perversities of a nature he could not
control and other people could not understand. But he was and is to-day
the finest poetic genius the country
has produced. As a writer of tjhe short
stor-y he founded a school wliich the
best of the French, the German and'
the Slav short-story writers have been
proud to follow. It is hecause of his
matchless, haunting melodies of verse
and the rich world of his imagination
revealed to us in his short stories that
Poe's memory should he honored. His
frailties as a man perished with him;
there is no need to keep them iu memory. But that imperishable part of
him which we call genius deserves its
fame. Mbnuments are not raised to
the flawless alone. If they were there
might be fewer, even hi proud Richmond, to lift the names of favored
sons upward to the sky.—Washington

Chickens Saved from Snake.
An old hen with a large family of
small chickens was recently given an.
empty barrel turned down on its side,
for a coop, says a correspondent fdr
the Lewiston (Me.) Journal. One day
reeently the hen. gave the signal of
distress used by all good grangers and
fhe barrel "was quickly surrounded by
the fighting members of the household.
A large snake was found in the barrel and quickly lynched. Several
bunches were noticed on the reptilejs
body, and he was ripped up the belly
wifih a pair of shears and seven chickens were found gasping ior breath.
They are all alive.
Saved His Hoy's Liis.
"My three year old boy was badly
constipated, had a high fever and was
in an awful condition. I gave him
two doses of Foley's Orino Laxative
and the next morning the fever was
gone and he was entirely well. Foley's Orino Laxative saved his life."—
