Our little son will be four years OF age on
the 25th inst. In May. 1885, he was attacked
with very painful breaking out of the skin
We called In q physician. who treated him for
about four weeks. The child received little or
no good from the treatment. as the breaking
out, supposed by the ply stefan to be hives in
an aggravated form, became larger In blotches
and more and more distressing. We were fire.
qnently obliged TO get up in the night and rub
him with soda in water, strong liniments, etc.
Finally, we called other physicians, until no
less than six had attempted to cure him, all
alike failing, and the child steadily getting
worse and worse, until about the Goth of last
July, when we began TO give him Cuticura Re-
solvent internally. and the Cuticura, and Gu
ticura Soap externally, and by the last of
August he was so nearly well that we gave
him only one dose of the Resolvent about
every second day for about ten days longer,
ana he has never been troubled since with the
horrible malady. In all we used less than one
half Of bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a little
less than one box of Cuticura and only one
cake of Cuticura soap.

SENATORS SABIN and Davis emphatical-
ly deny the Geographic statement print
ed yesterday that they had called upon
President-elect Harrison to protest
against the selection of ex-senator Win
dom to be secretary of the treasury.
We thought the rumor had a "fishy"
scent about it.

THE Minnesota senators and Congrel

THE Minnesota senators and Congress-
men are not at all pleased with the
move to consolidate the land Offices in
this state. A Washington Dispatch SAYS:
Hon. John Lind says: "You may
quote me as saying that Villas scheme
for consolidating land offices in Mime
sofa will fail through. ! say this with
the positive knowledge that it will
amount to nothing, and / want the peo-
pie of Minnesota, all of whom are inter
ested more or less, to know that the
consolidation will not take place. shall
not now characterize Villas action as /
regard it, but shall content myself with
this statement of the failure of his
scheme" The Sabin resolution con-
corning those land offices was called up
to-day and passed by the senate. Min
nesotians will be pleased to know that
Senator Sabin and John Lind have work
ed together with great determination in
this matter, and there is no doubt that
Villas will suspend his order, at the sug.
gestion of President Cleveland. tits be-
heved to be good policy to let the Re.
publicans wrangle over those spoils.
Villas did not consider party policy, but
public interest, as he viewed 1t. Cleve-
land thinks the Republicans should have
all the quarrels they can possibly obtain
over the offices.

THE caustIc remarks of Senator Sabin
in regard TO the desirability of Mr.. Win
dom's appointment to Il cabinet position
are not calculated to aid in restoring har-
mony amongst the various factions In
this State lately in excitement. But, if this
disturbance proves unfortunate it is also
likely to be interesting, and there will
be plenty of time after the fun is all over
in which to smooth down the perturbed
surface of the political pool.

If the British government will now
abandon its attempt to thwart the rights
of the Irish people by bolstering up a
miserable libel of their chosen leader,
and turn about to make some amends
for its criminal stupidity it may to a
small degree escape the ignomlny which
opens for it In the exposure ofthe Lon
don Times iasco. But that is probab-
ly too much to expect and the blunder-
ing Tories will 90 on until the people OF
Engla2d Use up and taking things In
cir own hands accord TO Ireland the

ST. PAUL has another sensational muir
der on hand, with particularly disgrace
full accompaniments, and the readers of
its newspapers have all the disgusting
phases of the matter staring them in
the face. When will good papers begin
to realize that there is merit in passing
over such things with as little parade as
possible? The details of such crimes are
unfit for the pages of any newspaper
which expects admittance to homes
where purity and innocence abide, while
their effect upon the minds of children
is dreadful to concentrate.

The correspondents at Washington
and the other cabinet makers are not as
certain as they were about the selections
made by Gen. Harrison for his advisers.
In fact, they give evidence of having
been badly fustered by the advent of
the Presi0ent-to-be into Washington
and in their uncertainty are again going
over the list of probabilities and posi-
bilities, while at the last moment they
make up their minds that not more than
one or two of the ministers have really
been settled upon. 1t is curious why
they shouldn't be willing to wait till
next week when the new president will
make the announcements which he has
doubtless had in mind for many weeks.
