Our eldest child, now six years of age, when an

malignant skin disease. All ordinary remedies
faing,we called our family physician, who attempt
ed to cure it; but it spread with almost Incredible
rapidly, until the lo"er portion of the little fe
lows person, from the middle of the back down to
his knees, was one solid Tas-ugy, painful, bOtch-
ed, and malicious. We had no rest at night no
peace by day. Finally. We we're advised to tfy the
Cuticura Remedies. The effect was simply mary-
eiOtS. In three or four weeks complete cure was
wrought leaving the little fellows person as white

THE Woodsfield Spirit Of Democracy
says Robert Carpenter, farmer in that
vicinity, lost twenty-five valuable sheep
in the following manner: They were
standing in a barn, and becoming
alarmed, rushed outside and following
the leader, circled around the barn. The
number was sufficient to form a COM
plete circle, and as is natural with them
when frightened, each followed the 9th
er. Their flight from the imaginary
danger was kept up until they all drop
ped to the ground utterly exhausted.
Death followed soon after.

WARNING TO THE COUNTRY

WARNING TO TIE COUNTRY.
NY Tribune
Representative Hatch, of Missouri, is
one of those frank, outspoken enemies
of the tariff whom it is a privilege to
have as an opponent In his speech on
Monday in TIE House he warned the
ProtectiOHists of the consequences Of
the defeat Of the Tariff bill ssIf the
gentlemen on the other side" ," he remark
ed with a menacing gesture, "would
learn lesson from the past legislative
history of The country, they would not
only accept the bill ROW presented to
them, but they would be glad TO get to
il: for if tire measure were rejected.
in less than twelve months the PrOtec-
tionists would give millions Of dollars to
get as moderate reduction of the tar
if" The meaning OF this threat is plain.
The defeat of the present bill. the enact
nlent of which no Democrat in his sober
senses can reasonably expect with the
consent Of the Senate, even if It can be
forced through the House, viii be fol-
lowed next year hv q radical measure of
free trade. ~ thin twelve months, =
B.r. Hatch is explicit in saying. This is
q definite and unequiyocal declaration of
Democratic policy which the country
will DO well to remember when it elects
rev President and new Congress
next November.
The Mills bill is only the entering
wedge. Next year, if the Democratic
party has the power, another and a
broader wedge will be driven in. The
Mills bill shows what may be done with
the green tree. Let President Cleveland
be reelected and new Democratic free
trade measure will show what can be
done with the dry tree. NoadYocate Of
pending tariff legislation has spoken Of
it as anything more than a tentative
measure beginning of radical tariff
revision in the interest Of free trade.
Neither Mr. Hatch nor his colleagues
are willing to stipulate that the Mills
bill, if it be allowed to become a law,
shall not be followed up at the next ses-
sion by additional tariff legislation. The
industrial interests have no guarantee
that the assault upon them viii not be
lElllouidttiH ISheHcu, cNS4- II tIiSH WIT
disposed, as they are not. to accept this
measure as a compromise. What then
will be the natural course for representa-
tives Of every industry and the working
classes employed by them to adopt when
they are threatened with radical free
trade within twelve months? They must
close their ranks and array themselves
in solid column against the enemies of
American industry.

THE bill providing for the immediate
emancipation of the slaves has passed
the Brazilian Senate and is now a law.
Its enactment marks one of the great
epochs in Brazilian progress and is a

lied the reign of Dom Pedro, which now
seems so near its close.

Commerce, a first-class authority, the
market price of fine wool is now lower
than it has been at any time since 1924.
Back of that year there are no quota
tions obtainable. The present duty on
such grades is from 10 to II cents a
pound, or about 30 to 40 per cent. With
this protection removed by the Mills bill,
the value of an American farmers clip
