NUMBER 21
THE HAWSES
Hew Zealanders Gave Interesting And
Instructive Entertainment.
The Rawies, who appeared at the
opera house Thursday evening as the
third number of the lecture course,
were a decidedly interesting and versatile family. They gave an excellent
idea o! their country, scenes of marked beauty and variety, native habits,
customs and dress, interspersed with
songs in their native tongue and later
in English. It is hard to realize that
these people were at one time of the
most primitive type. That their talents were simply dormant awaiting
the touch of the Master mind is evidenced by the. remarkable progress
made in their country since the advent of missionaries some sixty years
ago. At the present time New Zealand, from whence they came, is the
most progressive of the countries of
the earch, embodying in their form of
government nearly all the ultra radical advantages as, espoused by the socialists and "progressives" of this
country. There are no extremely rich
in their country, and ^ a pauper is
practically unknown. Not-a- bad state
of affairs for any nation to work toward.
WHY NOT HAVE GAS
'THE IRISH PIPER'
Time is Ripe,To Make A, Move To
Secure It For Saline.
A movement in the right direction
is being taken by a few of our citizens,
looking toward the early acquiring of
gas for household and business uses.
The gas" company of Ann Arbor is
about to increase its capital stock with
a view to extending its suburban business, and Valine proposes to be in
line for tbe convenience if promises of
liberal use of the same will have the
desired effect.
•In view of the increasing cost of
coal, _wood and gasoline, the time is
surely coming when gas will be an
absolute necessity, and inasmuch as
our streets are to be torn up during
the coming months it is an opportune
time to have gas pipes laid, even if
the gas has to come later on.
' The idea to pipe it from Ann Arbor
Is practicable, as but very little is lost
in forcing it so far. At some points
'in Indiana it is piped

As the Ann Arbor company is
equipped to furnish a great deal more
gas than that city can use it seems
reasonable to suppose they will entertain a proposition from Saline, and to
that end some of our business men
will take the matter up with them.
This is the season of tbe year when
mothers feel very much concerned over
the frequent colds contracted by their
children, and have abundant reason for
it as ever3' cold weakens the lungs, lowers the vitality and paves the way for
the more serious diseases that so often
follow. Qhamberlain's Congli Remedy
is famous for its cures, and is pleasant
and safe to take. For' sale by E. H.

Your grandfather tended his corn with a hoe. Your father
thought the old double-shovel was about the best thing ever
invented. YOU ride along on a two-row cultivator and tend
more corn than any ten men equipped like your father or
your grandfather. This is only one instance showing that
modern methods mean less work and more money.
Again; your grandfather tradedicoon skins for sugar. He
had little real money. Your father no doubt secreted his
money somewhere about the house, ran the risk of fire and
burglary, and sometimes loaned it and never got it back. In
those .days security debts were common and caused much
trouble. And YOU? Have you adopted modern money
methods of banking as you did with cultivating corn? Do
you have a bank account, pay by check and enjoy the convenience and profit of modern banking methods? Or are you
still using the old hoe financial methods of your forefathers?
Something hore to'think about. We can prove our claims if
you will grant us the opportunity.

Guaranteed Attraction At The Opera
House Tomorrow Night.
"The Irish Piper" will be seen in
this city, for one night only, on Friday, February 21, at the opera house,
and it is a pleasure to announce the
coming of an attraction of merit; and
it may not be amiss to say that the
story abounds in the richest vein qf
Irish wit and humor, so well known
to belong to the Irish character, and
deals with the aspirations of two Irish
ward politicians in their ambitions to
be leaders and dictators of politics in
their wards, wherein is hinged the ex-
hilerating and hilarious fun that runs
through "The Irish Piper" from the
rise of the curtain until the fall; and
if there is any humor in your makeup you will laugh until you cry, as it
is one continuous laugh.
The author having constructed the
same for laughing purposes, taking
the Irish character and the well-known
political game, as played by ward politicians in our metropolitan cities, as
his theme, and the management has
neither spared expense or labor in selecting a cast of characters for the production, headed by the well known
young Irish character comedian, Mr.
Russell Craner, who has made millions laugh at his quaint Irish wit
and humor, supported by a select company of high class male and female
artists, in a program of refined, hilarious fun from start to finish.
So if you enjoy a good laugh don't
forget the date, Friday, February 21,
and secure your seats at Nissly's.
Popular prices of admission will
prevail; General admission 85c, children 25c, reserved seats 50c; and the
Green Uniformed Band will announce
the arrival of the-company.

Evening.
In Madam Sherry," a musical production that has scored a success of
greater popular magnitude than any
musical piece offered in the metropolis in a score of years, the master
touch and manner are said to be vitally contributing elements accounting for the production's furore.
