continue until “mediation” achieved

Mr, Bryan, when the word reached
him, could hardly credit his long,

chautaugqua detalls, It was under
stood that there had been here some
notion of following Mr. Bryan's act
with a soft shoe buck instead of the
Swiss bell ringers, and Mr. Bryan
preferred the bell ringers as more re.
fined. He got back to his desk, how
ever, in time to be told that those
shiplecads of German arms had been

Every thought of buck dancers and
bell ringers vanished from Mr. Bry

Then ensued a profound Bryan sl

profound, not to say resentful, when
he was told by ones learned in df

having bound the country to a truce
pending the hot-air developments at
Niagara, the German had a right to
land the arms. We could only look
peacefully and helplesgly on. Onr

It is understood that Huerta—even
as the local diplomats—is refreshing
his saddle-colored features with a
wide Montezuman grin. Also Mr
Wilson and Mr. Bryan and, per inci

at and sneered at all along the lega

HE L PREAGH
THE SERMON AT
OWN FUNERAL
Aged Fife Player Wants ‘“No
Foolishness” in Discourse
Over His Bier.
MUSKEGON, MICH., June B.—Al
though Francis M. Fowler, Justice of
the Peace at North Muskegon for ten
vears past and 76 years old, expects
to become a centenarian, he is taking
no chances as to his funeral sermon,
just having completed it himeself and
repeated it into a phonographic re
cording instrument, so that at his
funeral service, instead of a pastor,
the graphophone will be used.
Fowler is determined he will thus
preach his own funeral sermon. He
wants none of the usual meaningless
phrases sounded over his coffin, he
says, preferring a brief history of his
life be related, together with some
thing of his hopes of the hereafter.
Noted Fife Player,
Fowler is notad all over Muskegorn
County for his fife playing. Although
76 years-old, he marched in the Labor
Day parade last year, playving his fife
with all the enthusiasm of a youth,
He was born in a log cabin on a
small farm in Muskingum County,
Ohto, on April 1, 1838. Until the Civil
War he spent his time in farming. He
was married to Miss Sarah A, Shafer
in 1859, and sayvs he is well pleased
that he has lived to see their seven
children, five girls and two boys, all
married.
Served in War.
In 1861 he took an active part as
fife player for recruiting officers, and
telonged to the Ohio militia at that
time. Later he was called into serv
ice when Morgan made his raid in
Ohio. He then went into regular serv
fce in the One Hundred and Fifty
rinth Ohio Volunteers, and served
with them until the end of the war.
Mr. Fowler came to Muskegon in
1885 and remained three years, during
which time he conducted a shop here.
Since then he has made North Mus
kegon his home, and has been en
gaged In gardening.

Auto-Intoxication a I
Intoxication is
“poisoning, or
the state of being poisoned, from toxic, substances produced within the
body.” This is a condition due to the stomach, bowels, kidneys, liver, or
pores of the body failing to throw off the poisons. More than 50 % of adults
are suffering from this trouble. This is probably why you are suffering from
nervousness, headaches, loss of appetite, lack of ambition, and many other
symptoms produced by Auto-Intoxication. Your whole system needs stirring up.

you need for the test. Light the
match and apply itfto the fabric. If
it holds its shape, tRe silk is adulter
ated with some offfthe various min
