Blotohes and scabs from Head to Feet.

Ny boy, aged nine years, has been troub-
led all his life with a very bad humoiTi,
which appeared all over his body in small
red blotches, with dry white scab on them.
Last year he was worse than ever, being
covered with scabs from the top of his head
to his feet, and continually growing worse,
although he had been treated by two ply
sicians. As last resort | determined to
try the CuTIcURA REMEDIES, and am happy
to say they did all that could wish. Using
them according to directions, the humor
rapidly disappeared leaving the skin fair
and smooth, and performing a thorough
cure The CUTcURA REMEDIES are all you
claim for them. They are worth their
weight in gold to any one troubled as my
boy was. GEORGE +. LEAVITT,

Irish Melodies.

MT Ludwig's abilities as a ballad sing CT, as well as a finished artist in the higher line of operatic work, are too well known to need more than passing comment. Suffice it to say that he has seldom been heard in better voice than last evening. His singing of ssThe Wearin' O the Green" 1.-The Boys of Wexford" and ''The Death of Owen Roe O'Neilf' aroused an immense amount of enthusiasm in the hearts and hands of his we'll disposed hearers and he was re- called again and again.-N. Y. Herald. At the opera house Tuesday evening.
 Nobody's Claim.
 The piece derives its name from a mining claim of untold edith, tn heir to which which cannot be found until the hero, after much trial and tribulation dicovers it. Miss Sadie Has, son is a rough, uncouth mountain girl of sterling virtue, and created much ap- plause by her witty sayings. Joseph J. Bowling, as the hero, gave very fin ished performance, never over-acting his part, and the play, with the incidental appearance of horse, dog and bear, with the mechanical effects of the railroad train and con1agration was received with vociferous applause.-Boston Her aid.

Treatment of Burns.

A physician writes: Quite often see formulas for the treatment of burns. As have been burned all over my body, ex- cepting the soles of my feet, upon which stood while being burnt, so severely that twelve physicians said could not live, you will see why am so interested in such formulas. Please say from me that the free use of soft soap upon fresh burn will remove the fire from the flesh in less time than it takes to write these words. If the burn be severe, after re- lief from the pain use linseed oil, and then sift upon it wheat four. When this is dried hard, repeat the oil and flour until complete covering is ob- tained. Let this dry until it falls off, and new skin will be formed without scar. This treatment leaves nothing moro to be desired. Herald of Health.

PerGuisites at the Austrian Court.

Nothing except the linen, plate, china and glass is ever served twice at the tables of the Austrian court Some of the servants have as their perquisites the bottles which have come up to the dining room but have not been uncorked; others the uncorked bottles, and others again the wine that remains in the glasses Therefore it is the interest of one set of servants to keep the glasses full; of another set to draw as many corks as possible while parting with as little wine as they can, and of third set to draw corks sparingly. As regards the food, too, there are different orders of claim ants for perquisites, one man having a vested interest in the joints, another in the poultry. third in the sweet dishes, and so on Then there are the men to whom the wax candles belong, and these naturally make a rush to blow out the candles the moment the last guest has walked out of the room. And, incredi- ble as it may sound, there is a basement corridor in the palace which is like a bazaar full of shops. Here not only the keepers of small hotels and restaurants but the cooks of many ladies belonging to the second class official world, come to buy cold meats, pastry, sweetmeats wines and candles. There is one sort ol Tokay which can only be bought from the court servants as none is made ex cept for the emperor, and it is to be pre- sumed that the uncorked bottles oi champagne and other fine wines arc generally sold by the dozen. and they must form very substantial perquisite Boston Transcript.

the case of the complaint Of George Rice,
petitioner, VS.. the Louisville aud Nashville
Railroad Company, defeo liant, the inter-
state commerce commission has fOuud that
in addition to the question OF rea ona bleuess

also raised, namely; TnRt Ur the proper
classification of cotton seed oil and turpen-
tine as compared w th petroleum and It's
products; of discrimination in favor of
petroleum and its products when carried
in tank cars, resulting in giving
Il low rate on cotton seed oil
or turpentine, or either, when carried as
back-oading in such tank cars, aud that of
the duty Of the railroad companies to fur
Dish shippers with tank cars in cases wGere
the traffic Of their lines can proftAhlY or
properly be Carried in such tauk cars, and
is large euorgh TO justify the expenditure.
A CHANCE FOR ALL.
1t also appears to the commission that
these questions are such as may affect the
business, di ectly or indirectly, OF nearly
all the railroads Of the country over which
these articles are shipped, and assumes that
said carriers generally are interested in
these questions. In order, therefore, TO
avoid a multiplicity of complaints nnd TO
secure as far as possible a settlement of all
these questions that NAV be general and
just, aud in order to give
all of the railway companies OF the
country an opportunity to b. heard. II they
desire to do so, upon tHese questions i'll this
proceeding it has been ordered b. e com
mission that the tendency of said proc ed
ing be made known to said carriers by
notice from the commission.

ating in the southern states, Informing them
