FEGERS' SWISS TRIP f;K' (Continued from first page.) surroundings, We spent moot of oar time wandering around the lake, never tiring of the scenery, and admiring the beantifal flowers and plants that grow in the greatest profusion ' re. The roses and crimson climbers are especial­ ly attractive. The doctor grew quite enthusiastic and delivered a lecture on botany that deserved a better audience. But then he could not expect a man oufr on his summer vacation to remember all those hard names, which he had probably dug up out of some old musty volume, anyway. The next day we took a steamer for the city of Geneva, a ride of three and one-half hours. Lake Geneva is a quiet peaceful body of water, especially on a warm summer's day. There is but lit­ tle traffic and the few boats with their peculiar sails only enhance the air uf calm placidity that prevails. Occasion- ly a steamer disturbs slightly the seren­ ity of the scene, but on the whole it is about as restful a region as one would care to see. The doctor and I sat in the stern of the boat, basking .in the sun and carrying on a desultory conversa- . tion. After awhile even this became too strenuous and we relapsed into that bliasfiii state of semi-consciousness that innocent and the just. Suddenly the doctor broke the spell by drawling out something about its being the Fourth of July. So it was. After discussing the duties of the American abroad on his country's natal day, we concluded we ought to buy a bunch of firecrackers and paint the lake red. The thought of walking all that distance down the deck and away down the stairs to ask the steward it he could sell us twenty-five centimes' worth of firecrackers was too much, and there was no celebration, the lake retaining its natural hne, like­ wise the aforementioned placidity. As we rode along we were more or less on the lookout for Mount Blanc, the highest mountain in Enrope. A little break in the hills suddenly dis­ closed it. It is certainly well named, for the entire upper portion, all that can be seen from Lake Geneva, is com­ pletely covered with pure white snow. I would not care to see it at a closer range as I fear the effect would be weakened. Of such a moment it can truly be said that "distance lends en­ chantment." As it is, I shall always recall it as I saw it that day from the lake, a white specter on the blue hori­ zon. Genera, also, had oar fall approval It is a splendid modern city, unusually handsome architecturally. The air is wonderfully clear and the sun shines very brightly on the white buildings and pavement, so that we found it ad­ visable to remain in the shade in the middle of the day. We were surprised to see that from many buildings floated the Stars and Stripes. All of the hotels and some of the business house;, were well decorated, and I took a snap shot of our hotel and the one adjoining, which together displayed at least a doz­ en large flags. The hotel dinner that day was a banquet to -the Americans, and at night there were fireworks in all parts of the city., It may have been only a touching tribute to the power of the American dollar, but it made us feel happy and we were duly thankful. We left Geneva for Basel via Lau­ sanne and Neuchatel, part of the way thru the Jura mountains. When the doctor and I parted at Cologne we agreed that the tour we had just con­ cluded was the most pleasurable one either of us had ever experienced. Switzerland is surely a grand country. Some day we hope to go back again, and when we do we will confine our attention to the region around Lucerne and Interlaken. These to us are the bright spots of the country, and until we see them again, as the Germans say, "auf wiedersehen." 1 > 'ffe 4 . , t ," . --PF, Being separated from the writer by the broad Atlantic and about a thou­ sand miles of terra firma, I feel safe in adding a few footnotes to the descrip­ tion of our trip. Modesty, so seldom met with in the young American, prevented him from mentioning the fact that on my arrival at the hotel after the Interlaken inci­ dent I found him surrounded by the young ladies of the party, offering words of consolation. He continued . . 1 • • : time we remained in their company, while the entertaining of the older mem­ bers of the party, to prevent any inop­ portune interruption, was relegated to me. I hope he will be duly thankful. After leaving the party the writer com­ plains of the weather, the lack of en­ thusiasm, etc., and I kindly attributed the whole matter to cold feet On my arrival in Hamburg on my way home I went to the depot one even­ ing in company with Mr. Schmitz to meet one of the young ladies whose company we had the pleasure of having aboard ship. He requested me to wait at the staircase, for fear we might miss her. But why wait way up fropt, out of sight? But, seriously, the visit to Germany and other countries has been a source of satisfaction, of recreation and of ed­ ucation. The courtesies shown me at the different universities, the opportun­ ities for seeing special cases of interest to me, and the kind treatment accorded me on all occasions were far beyond my expectations. Bonn, Heidolbernc, Ber­ lin, Basel and other centers of learning opened wide the doors of their univer­ sities, gave access to all clinics, both medical and surgical, and any informa­ tion wished was freely given to visiting physicians. It would be nnkiud, after the kind treatment received, to make comparisons, and as the details would be of minor interest, I will say with my friend, Mr. Sehmits, "auf wiedersehen." CVH. FEGEKS. Good Time Again. The "Bunch" had one more good time at the usual meeting place on Lily Lake point, and we are sorry to see the summer wane, but the memories of the splendid times at Riley's will ever re­ main. Last Sunday the party consisted of W. F. Riley, eon, Ralph; Mr. end Mrs. J. C. Riley and daughter, Winnie; Mrs. Oarr, Mf. and Mrs. J. Clifford, Misses Riley and Carr, Messrs. J. Pane- si, L. Larson, Fred Niemeyer and son, Fred, of Chicago, W. F. Gallaher, Ms . and Mrs. P. G. Engeln and daughter, Dorothy, Mr. and Mrs. W. F, Holtz 01 McHenry. The latest addition to the club, Master Willie Riley, was moat cordially welcomed and made a favor­ able impression on all present. A lib­ eral supply of shooting material was at hand and the inevitable target contest was in full swing when the sight of a flock of ducks changed all plans, and, en masse, they Btarted after them. The birds proved very wary until they were tempted with a few bottles of beer and the boys eventually bagged some twen­ ty eight in all. Later in the evening a "dill dove" hunt was organized, but the enthusiastic and persistent hunter only succeeded in catching a bagful of mos­ quito bites, but as his friends were sur­ rounding the "mad dog" at the time, it was impossible for them to chase many dill doves in his direction.

Not a remedy that will straighten th« distorted limbs of chronic cripples, nor turn bony frowth* back to flesh again. That it imvosttibl*. But I can now surely kill the paint and pang* of this deplorable disease. In Germany--with a Chemist In the City of Darmstadt --I found the last ingredient w3iis which Dr. Shoop's Rheumatic Remedy w»i mads a perfected, dependable prescription. Without that last Ingredient. I successfully treated many, many cases of Rheumatism; but now, at last, it uuU formly cures all curable cases of this heretofore SAuch dreaded disease. Those sand-like granulaf wastes, found in Rheumatic Blood, seem to dissolve and pass away under the action of this remedy as freely as does sugar when added to pun w»t«r; And then, when dissolved, these poisonous wast«a freely pass from the system, and the cause of Rheumatism is gone forever. There is now net real need--no actual excuse to suffer longer with­ out help. We sell, and in confidence recommend Dr. Shoop's Rheumatic Remedy i. H. PETESCH. "Toyland" will be a special treat for the children and a surprise for the older folks. At the Central next Snnday evening. Can you use a 10-gallon stone jar for 49c?--just the thing for pickles or meat. At Gilbert Bros.' this week.

"Toyland," the musical operetta that comes to the Central Snnday for a one night engagement, contains more ab­ solute hits and novelties than any two shows ever seen in McHenry.

Managers Gilbert announce that they have secured a new musical operetta, "Toyland," for one pight, Sunday, Sep­ tember 8, with its charming female chorus, whose voices are the beet that have ever been presented by any company of similfur character.
