The Comraittee in charge of the Farmers' Picnic, to be held at Whitmore lake on the 25th, announce that "The American people are overworked," and appeal to them on behalf of their good health to pause and reflect, and take a day off (Aug, 25) before it is too late. Looks like a capital suggestion. The Argus advises everybody who can, to go and take the benefit of the recreating influences of the occasion and see the boys and girls stroll arm in arm, through the leafy groves and bowers, eating popcorn and ginger bread. Go where the babbling waters bab, and the waves bob and the tide ebbs and flows every three or five minutes. Go, where oratory is thick, and bands play and the, merry goes 'round; where the banks are bonnie and the lobster comes forth and the caterpillar drops from the overhanging bough down the back of your neck. Go to the Farmers picnic and listen to the oratorical orations of the several gentlemen who wiĆ¼ this fall be elected governor of Michigan. You will never miss the diy out of your life, or if you do, will be amply rewarded by the delights of the hour and the thrill of pleasure you will receive in the -"feast of r-eason" and the flow of soul" and the pleasing sensations one experiences eating bis chicken ieg dinner at the roots of a tree with the ants dancing up his pantaloons legs. Re member the date - Saturday, August 25th, A. D., 1894.
