HAS ANYONE SEEN THIS DOG?
Bcotch Collie, Pet of Aged Pair, Hae
Disappeared.
There is much distress in the home
of George A. Wood, No. 72 Slbley-st.,
over the disappearance of a fine Scotch
collie dog that is registered under the
name of “Detroit Laddie,” but an
swers to the name of "Laddie.” Both
Mr. and Mrs. Wood are ill and have
been confined to their home for two
or three years.
Some three years ago, Miss Florence
Wood, their daughter, brought ‘Twad
dle" from the east and ever since ho
has been the companion o! the couple
when they were unable to leave the
house. They both became very much
attached to the pet. and were never
lonely when he was about. Tues
day, howover, the animal disappeared
and although Miss Wood has exhaust
ed every known means of recovering
the pet, she has been unable to do
so. To make matters worse, Mrs.
Wood attempted to leave her room to
look ;for the dog and suffered a re
lapse. so much so that her life is de
spaired of. Whenever she recovers
consciousness, she calls for “Laddie,”
missing him almost as much as if he
were human.
The animal is sable, white and
black, the breast and feet being white.
There Is a white patch on the fore
head and white tassel on the tail. Any
information concerning the animal will
be gladly received by Miss Wood.

fI.U.R. MAY CLAIM
RIGHTS IN STREETS
Option Clause in Old Detroit Rail
way Franchise Is "Joker" If Lines
Are Re-Routed.
A question which may enable th**
D. U- R. to contest legally with the
city for the possession of almost all
the street* on which franchises expire
within the uext few years, will be
raised in case the common council
adopts the new car routing plan ar
| ranged by the mayor s Committee of
JO as a basis for anew settlement.
It was stated by Mayor Thompson
during the last campaign that Presi
dent Hutchlna, of the D. U. R-. had
offered to take over anew franchise
with the old Detroit railway terms.
Presumably the disposition of the
D. U. R- Is still the same.
In the D?troit railway franchise Is
i a clause which gives the three-cenc
fare company an option on any ’'new”
routes. The legality of this option is
In doubt, of course. Corporation Coun
sel Hally is of the opinion that It is
not valid, basing his view on a court
(decision which ruled that the ordi
nance of 1862, giving the Citizens'
j Street Railway Cos. the exclusive right
to run street cars in Detroit, was mu
binding. The two cases differ, how
ever. in many points, and there seems
no doubt but that tht adoption of a
I lot of new routes would give the D.
U. R. a ohauce to take the matter into
court for a delay of several years and
with a fair chance of winning.
In the Carstens plan of rearranging
the lines, practically every line In
the city except the Woodward and
Jefferson lines, i* re-routed, so that
they might be considered new routes
under the terms of the Detroit rail
way option clause
FOREST FIRE SWEEPS
OVER SASKATCHEWAN
Million Dollars’ Worth of Property Has
Already Been Destroyed—Saw
mills Wiped Out.
DAUPHIN. Manitoba, June 4.—A
forest Are covering hundreds of miles
of timber is sweeping over the North
Saskatchewan country. The Are ex
tends from 100 miles between Crooked
River and Bowsman and from Hudson
Bay Junction almost to the Pass.
No loss of life Is reported as yet but
It Is feared that farmers living In com
paratively sparsely settled districts an l
away from the railroads have suffered.
It Is estimated that a million dollars'
worth of property has already been
destroyed.
The entire plant of the Ruby
Lumber Company and sawmills on the
Hudson Bay branch were wiped out
last night. Passengers arriving on
trains from the north reported that the
heat was so intense that they could
feel it in the coaches. The windows
were ao hot they could not touch them.
The district is largely settled by
United States emigrants.
FRESH AIR.
Local Society Ask* Aid in Giving
Children Outing in Country.
The Michigan Fresh Air society Is
arranging to commence the season’s
work. During the past 12 years up
wards of 4,000 children have been
made happy by a pleasant, healthful
outing in the country. Several have
found permanent homes, and many
have remained throughout the sum
mer. The recipients of this charity,
children of the worthy poor, have no
other chance of getting away from
their crowded, unsanitary surround
ings. and the short vacation in the
country has a wonderful effect upon
theii health.
During the past year the families of
the unemployed have suffered much
hardship, and the children show ur
gent need of fresh air and wholesome
food. For the sake of these little ones,
a special appeal is made this year to
tho generous people In the country
districts to co-operate with the society
In this worthy cause.
The work of the society is conduct
ed in much the same manner as in
other large cities; that is. the society
provides transportation to and from
the homes, while homes are provided
by charitably Inclined residents of the
small towns, by farmers who are in
terested in doing something for poor
children. There is no expense or obli
gation upon those taking children ex
cepting their board and keeping for
the time being. Great care is exercis
ed In the sendtng of children, and ev
ery effort is made to secure only the
most deserving and needy. Further
particulars may be obtained by ad
dressing the secretary. Dr. James A.
Post, No. 69 Lafayette boulevard, De
troit.

Boy Convicted ot Burglary.
John Lang, a 17-year-old youth, was
convicted In Judge Connolly's court,
Thursday, of burglarizing Rosenberg's
store at No. 1440 Mlchlgan-ave., and
stealing 42 cents. Fifteen years is the
maximum penalty for the ofTonse. The
boy's defense wus that he had been
out of the reform school only three
months, and had been turned out of
his home by his father. Relatives re
fused to shelter him, he said, so he
crawled Into the store and the money
tempted him.

A Human Match Factory.
The body of the average man contains
phosphorus sufficient to maks 111,19
matches, enough to fill About A.OQ9 boxes,
allowing eighty matches to the box.
Phosphorus U one of fourteen elements
entering into the composition el the body.
It Is divided among the bonee, flesh, nerv
ous system, and other organs. Without
phosphorus the brain would be weak, the
body foeblo. And the bonee would disin
tegrate leaving man A squldy Inverte
brate squirming in the dust. The perfect
health of the human body requites a per*
feet balance of the constituent elements
of which It Is composed. The carbon.
Iron, lime, sulphur, sodium, etc., must all
be replaced as they are used up In human
energy. Take all the Iron from the blood
and the circulation stops. That's death.
Change the proper proportion of these
substance* to each other, destroy their
natural balance In the body, and JOtt do
tiroy tho balance of health.
THE FOOD WE EAT.
Where do these essential elements of
vital force come from? From the food
we eat. How are they extracted and dis
tributed to the several organs they sus
tain? The are extracted and distributed
by the stomach and other organs of di
gestion and nutrition. happens
when the stomach Is "weak"? The Ibod
is only partly digested and assimilated.
And then whats Then the balance of
health Is destroyed and there's blood
"trouble," nerve "trouble," lung •trouble,*
heart "trouble," or some other • trouble*
with the vital organs of the body. Pain
Is the hunger cry of the starved organs.
What then Is (he logical first step to
health? . _
Put the Btomach and organ* of dtoeetmm
and nutrition 4nfo a amdklon of found
health. That Is lust what Is done by Dr
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and
that Is Just the secret of the many mar
velous cures effected by this ren»e<^.
No modlclne can make flat or flesh.
Food alone can mah#.them. Only the
stomach and Its allied organs oan en
tract from tne food the elements that
make flesh and fat and sustain Ins.
"Nerve foods, ■" blood-mas Ins" medlcUme,
are mere fqds and fallacies. The stomach
and organs of digestion and nutrition pre
pare and distribute the food.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
Is not a cure-all. It does one thug. It
euros diseases of the stomach and organs
of digestion and nutrition. The reel xia*
ture does. Nature feeds the nervea. en
riches the blood, heels $e lunge mid re*
stores the failing vital powers. "Golden
Medical Discovery" only removes the
obstructions disease has put In Nature’s
'/here Is no alcohol In "Golden Medical
Discovery • and It contains nefther oplum,
cocalno nor any other narcotic. Doctor
Pierce holds no secrete from you—he tells
you that the "Discovery" contains the
following Ingredients: Golden Seal root.
Queen’s root. Stone root. Black Cherry
bark, Blood root. Mandrake root and
Chemically Pure Glycerine.
From "Organic Medicines," by Grover
Coe, M. D., of New York, we extraot the
following: "Hydrastis (Golden Seal) ex
ercises an especial Influence over mueous
surfaces, ipon the liver It acts with
equal certainty and efficacy. Asa ohola
gogue (liver tnvlgoratori, It has few
equals. In affections of the spleen, and
abdominal viscera generally. It is an
efficient and reliable remedy. Also In
scrofula, glandular diseases generally,
cutaneous eruptions. Indigestion, debility,
diarrhoea ana dysentery, constipation,
pilee and all morbid ami critical dis
chargee."
F. Elllngwood. M. D., says of Stone root
(Col I insoma), "stimulates the stomach,
acts as a tonic to enfeebled mu scalar
structure of the heart and has a direct
Influence upon atonic (weak) and dilated
or otherwise impaired conditions of the
veins. It Is a specific remedy In piles.
In catarrhal gastritis, where the circula
tion is defective. It, either alone or com
bined with nydrastls. Is of first Import
ance. They Increase the appetite and
' greatly Improve the digestion and assimi
lation of food. Good for rectal pains and
plies of the pregnant woman. Is a heart
tonic of direct and permanent Influence.
Excellent in the bicycle heart, In rheu
matic Inflammation and clergyman's sore
throat."
American Dlspen*atory says of Blood
root, "stimulates digestive organs, In
creases action of heart and arteries—
stimulant and tonic. Very valuable as a
cough remedy—arte as a oedatlv*—fur
ther valuable as an alterative."
