 It is interesting te note the attempts that are being made in some of the States to make practical politics little cleaner In the New York legislature there are three or four bills which aim to make it harder to bribe voters and easier to vote without the assistance and supervision of the heelers. And in other States there are similar efforts
 The most interesting and most radical move in this direction is that made in Iowa. A bill is before the legislature of that State which provides that any person who votes fraudulently, or aids another to do 50, eith- CT by threats or bribery or any other means, or who receives money or any other valuable thing, or the promise of it, for his vote, or even offers to vote in return for money or reward of any kind, the premise of it, shall be guilty of misdemeanor and liable to fine of not less than $20e and imprison- ment of not less than thirty days; also, that any person who tries, either by the use of money or the promise of it, or by any kind of entertainment, to get support for himself for office, either in primary or convention, shall be liable to the same punishment: all assessments for any except the legitimate expenses of election are forbidden, and any person soliciting from a candidate money, property, drinks, cigars, or any valuable thing" for the purpose of obtaining the votes of others for such candidate, shall not only be liable to the same punishment, but shall be disqualified to vote in the election. Incorporated employers are forbidden to in- faence in any manner, either personally or through anyone acting for them, the votes of their employees, either in primaries, oonven- tions, or elections, under penalty of Q fine not less than $1 ,000 nor more than $5,000. This seems to cover the ground pretty well. Of course no law can prevent all the evils that attend parties in this country, but undoubtedly much can be done to better matters.

was induced, after all other remedies had failed, to use the CUTICuRA REMEDIES on my boy four thighs to the ends of his toes. The nails fell off. His arms and face were also covered and he was a horrible sight. The CUTICURA and CUTICURA SOAP were all that used. Two days after their use we could change for the better, and in six weeks the child was perfectly well.

She used but one bottle of the REsoLvENT, two boxes of the CUTICURA and two cakes of CUTI- oURA SOAP, and in one week from the time she be- gan their use could change for the better. It is now nearly one year since she stopped using the CUTICURA RKMEDIEs and there is no return. who have the disease and those who are constantly about diseased patients, realize the torture in which they are placed.
 Ihave recommended the CUTIcURA REMEDIES to all whom have met that were in any way in need of a skin cure. One man to whom recommended them had suffered for twelve years, and in cured but nothing helped, and now after the use oi five bottles of the CUTICURA REsoLvENT, and sev SOAP, rejoices in having found cure have others at present under treatment, and with good pros poets.
