My little son. aged eight years, has been afflicted
 with Eczema of the scalp, and at times great DOT tion of the body ever since he two years old. It began in his ears, and extended to his scalp, which became covered with scabs and sores and from which a sticky fluid poured out causing in tense itching and distress, and leaving his hair matted and lifeless. Unoerneath these scabs the skin was raw, like piece of beefsteak. Gradually the hair came out and was destroyed, until but a small patch was left at the back of the head. My friends in Peabody know how my little boy has sui fered. At night he would scratch his head until his pillow was covered with blood. used ito tie his hands behind him, and in many ways tried to prevent his scratching but it no use, he would
 scratch. took him to the hospital and to the best physicians in Peabody without success. About this time some friends who had been cured by the Cuticura Remedies prevailed upon me to try them
 began to use them the 18th of January last In seven mouths every particle of the disease was re- moved. Not spot or scab remains on his scalp to tell the story of his suffering. His hair has re turned and is thick and strong, and his scalp as sweet and clean any chids in the world. can not say enough to express my gratitude for this wonderful by the Cuticura Remedies, and wish all similarly afflicted to know that my state ment is true and without exaggeration.

Prime butter should break or cut
like wax. Tho knife cuts smooth
ly through the print or lump, leav-
ing but a slight dampness on the
blade. Such is the result of a Judi
cious use ofgrain and early.cut hay.
The substitution of overripe hay
and straw in the ration OF the COW
at once changes the character of
the butter TO a crumbly mass, lack
ing the waxy consistency of choice
butter. Such butter when cut with
a knife rolls down both sides In q
crumbly condition. 1t lacks the
flavor and character SO essential
to the makeup of giit-edgc butter,
and sells at a very ordinary price.
Causes so apparently insignificant
as the change IN feeding late-cut
and oYer-ripe hay, where previous
ly the aromatic, succulent, soft,
early-cut grass formed the primer
pal part of the rations, reduce the
the quality of the product from
gilt-edge to ordinary. The sue
cessful dairyman watches and
guards against such changes IN the
cows rations.

In the efficacy of certain remedies of vio-
lent action, is the besetting foible of the igno-
rant and prejudiced. The indiscriminate
use ofpurgatives is a very common phase OF
the futuity of such people. Aloes, pody
phillin, disguised in sugar coating, castor
oil, mercury, and other old fashioned drugs,
still hold their own among this class, and
although the success of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters sufficiently disproves the necessity
for violence in medication. the adherents OF
an exploded fallacy still persist in giving and
taking inordinate purgative doses. Dyspep-
STA, constipation, liver complaint are as GER
tainly and thoroughly subdued by the Bit
tiers, as they are invariably aggravated by an
indiscriminate use of medicines, oficinal or
proprietary, belonging to the class which we
have condemned. Fever and ague, nervous
ness, rheumatism and inactivity OF the kid
neys, yield 10 the Bitters.

for lubricating purposes, it was su-

TAXES IN THE MILLENNIUM.

y. Y. Sun.
Col. Bob IngersolI proposes that
all homes shall be made free from
taxation.
Henry George, Col. Bob's pres
ent teacher in politics, wants to
have nothing taxed except the
bare land.
The Progressive Democrats, In
soils and Georges party, want all
the land divided up, so that each
man may have home.
Surprising that all these states
men have their way and attain
their purpose, and that no taxes
are put on anything but the land,
and all the land is put into homes,
and the homes are all free from
taxes then there will be only one
thing TO do:
This will be TO fall back on
Horace Greeley's plan and pay all
the taxes out of the public treas
ury.
Ingersoll and George and the
Progressive Labor Democrats
might save time and logic by ad-
vocating this plan at the start.

AN oCUJIsT's ADVICE.

Keep u shade on your lamps or
gas burner.
Avoid all sudden changes be-
tween light and darkness.
Never begin to read, write or
sew for several minutes after COM
ing from darkness to light.
Never read by twilight, moon

Never read or sew directly in

Never sleep so that on awaken
ing the eyes shall open on the
light of a window.
Do not use the eyesIght by a
light so scant that it requires an
effort TO discriminate.
The moment you are instructive
ly prompted to rub your eyes that
moment stop using them.
