* "Pittsburgh Perfect"
Fences The Best Because
1. Stays are Electrically Welded to the strands forming a perfect union
and an amalgamation with the strands not found in any other fence.,
2. All stay wires are made as heavy as intermediate line wires. A
fence, like a chain, is only as strong as the lightest material in it. Think
this over carefully,
S.   No wraps to get loose, to hold moisture .and cause rust.
4. No projections to injui'b stock or tear wool from sheep.
5. Stronger at the joints than any other fence. Welded together with
electricity.
6. Guaranteed that tho wire is not injured at the joints.
-^Guaranteed adjustable to uneven ground.
Gwirinteod that stays will not separate from joints.
Guaranteed all right in every particular.
Made by the most modern process and on the latest improyed machinery. •*.
11.   Most of the weak points in other fences aro on account of the way
he itays are fastened.
Our ttays are amalgamatdd with the strands by means of electricity and
the strength of the fence increased a hundredfold over the strength of a
fence where the stays are wrapped or damped on the strands.
You may pay more money for other fences but you cannot get as good a
fence as "Pittsburgh Perfect."

Tecumseh Team Sold.
The Tecumseh baseball team and'
franchise was sold last Saturday, to
Charles Wagner, the Iudian's second
baseman and last season's manager.
Mr. Wagner ha3 been in the field to
purchase the team for some time.
The price paid was $800. Wagner has
already sola two of the players Pitcher
Lagoe and Outfielder Streeter to the
Kalamazoo club of the Southern Michigan League. With the sanction of
the league management Wagner will
moye the franchise from Teeumseh to
some other city. Adrian is itching to
go into league ball, but does not want
to pay much for a fraccbise, so it is
doubtful if the franchise will go there.

Lost in the Forest fires,
' Joseph Hartwick qf JaGkson, with a
party of hunters shooting ducks at
Houghton lake, was a victim of the
forest fires. While out on the lake
Mr. Hartwick noticed some people
on shore battling with the fire and
trying to save Iheir property. He
obligingly abandoned his sport and
paddled his duck boat to the shore,
leaving inside a quantity of marfch
grass used as a screen, and a quantity
of other belongings and enrolled with
the Are fighters. He did not notice
when a spark set fire to the grass in
his boat, and most of his belongings
were burned.—Ex.
Oldest Daily Paper.
One of the Oldest and most reliable
daily papers of this state is the Adrian
Times which celebrated its seventy-
fourth anniversary last week. The
Times was edited and managed by
such men as R- W. Ingall, Tom Apple-
gate, Capt. J Ii. Lee, all spier did
newspaper men. It ig n w .conducted
by Thos, Daily and Dewitt We^sell
who for many years were with O'Donnell on the Jacli.-on Citizen. These
men are careful and conservative aud
the people of Lenawee county are giving them a liberal support.—Manchester Enterprise. , -
Iron Ore Found.
Iron ore has recently baen found
cropping out on the farm of Louis
Gram near Oakville in London township, by excavation. The "patch" ia
said to be about sixi-ei-u rods in extent
and is thought to be of considerable
value, A quantity of the ore has been
sent away for official testing, and
nuch interest centers about the prob
able outcome of ihe find.—Dundee Re
porter.
Rather an unusual si.%ht on the
streets of Dexter Saturday morning
was the appearance of Prof. Hobb,
teacher of geology at the University
of"Michig«n,"and about 200 of his class
coming up the middle of the street.
They came! to visit the hills surrounding the old Dexter homestead and to
do a little studying from nature.—Ex.
Forty new patients were received
at the U. of" M. hospital one day this
week. The number who have entered
during the past year is 3,500. These
figures would hardly indicate that it
was difficult to secure material or that
it would be necessary to remove to Detroit in order to get patients. Both of
the hospitals are generally filled about
to thelimit.—Aon Arbor News. *"
Seven I ears of Proof.
"I have had seven years of proof
that Dr. King's New Discovery is the
best medicine to take for coughs and
colds and for every diseased condition
of throat, chest or lungs," says W. V.
Henry of Panama, Mo. The world
has had thirty-eight years of proof
that Dr. King's New*Discovery is the
best remedy for coughs and colds, lagrippe, asthma, hay fever, bronchitis,
hemorrhage or the lungs, and the
early stages of consumption. Its timely use always prevents the development of pneumonia. Sold under guarantee at O. C. Wheeler's Pharmaey.
50c and $100.   Trial bottle free.
Winter blasts, causing pneumonia,
pleurisy and consumption will soon be

strengthen your lungs with Foley's
Honey and Tar. Do not risk starting
the winter with weak lungs, when Foley's Honey and Tar will cure the
most obstinate coughs and colds, and
prevent serious results. O. C. Wheeler's Pharmacy.

Wm. Bi Hatch of Ypsilanti, has
bought the Ypsilantian and a controlling interest in the Ypsilanii Press,
and the two papers will be merged
into one paper.
Mrs. &. Engel of Unadilla, 70 years
old, is in a critical condiiion as the r -
salt of mistaking carbolic acid for lina-
ment a few days ago. Physicians are
doubtful of her recovery owing to her
advanced age.—Ex.
Kinnear, the pumping station at the
M. C. R. R. about one mile from Dexter which was totally destroyed by fire
and two valuable engines badly damaged, is rebuilt aud is larger and mure
commodious than ever.—Standard.
The auditor-general has received
from the warden of the state prison at
Jackson $49,93479, which represents
the amount received by tlie prison for
the sale'of binder twine manufactured
at the new plant, over and above the
cost of the raw material used —Chelsea Standard.
Irish Street Children.
The Irish street children niust surely be to visitors the. most , surprising of all their institutions. In ready
humor and in bright good humor, in
an unquenchable spirit of playfulness,
with the most diligent and painstaking
attention to business, reinforced by
lhe most surprising art of coaxing,
these barefooted citizens give a daylong comedy. Sometimes they seem
to embody and symbolize all Ireland,
its gay poverty and its good humor in
depressing circumstances.
Bugs In Melons.
The bugs that infest melons and
squashes are a merciless horde. It
is tedious to kill themo by hand and
poisoning them is very unsatisfactory. Get a lot of empty strawberry
boxes, tack gauze over them and in-,
vert one- over each fair-sized melon;
the bugs will have to stay away then.
Sow More Radishes.'
You can keep on sowing radishes
until late in the season. As fast as
one bed is emptied fix it up and plant
more there; or, better yet, exchange
the' next hatch of radishes with some
other similar crop and there'll be
more plant food for them in the new
soil.
If you suffer irom constipation and
liver trouble Foley's Orino Laxative
will cure you permanently by stimulating the digestive organs so they
will act naturally. Foley's Orino Laxative does not gripe, is pleasant to
take and you do not have to take laxatives continually after taking Orino.
Why continue to be the slave of pills
and tablets. O. C. Wheeler's Pharmacy.
