Gu ed in Eight Weeks by the Cuti-
cura Remedies.
A the age of three months a rash (which
IA afterward proved to be eczema or salt
rheum) made its appearance on my face A
physician was called. He said teething was the
cause; he prescribed some cooling medicine,
but the sores spread to my ears and head. An
other NJ ID. was called. He profess d to know
all about the case, called it Kings Evil" and
prescribed gunpOWder, birthstone and lard
mixed into salve; but the disease continued.
They could not do anything with it. Another
prescribed borax, water and -four; another lin
seed poultices. None of them did me any good
at all, but made me worse The diseass con
tnued undated; it spread TO my arms and legs,
till was laid up entirely, and from continually
sitting On the floor on pillow my limbs con
tracted so that lost all control of them and
was utterly helpless. y mother would have to
lift me out and into bed. could get around
the house on my hands and feet, but could not
get my clothes on at all, aud had to wear a sort
Of dressing gown. Ny hair had all mat ed
down or fallen off aud my head, face and ears
were one scaO, and had TO have a towel on my
head all the time in the summer to keep the flies
Oft. My parents consulted a prominent physi-
clan aud surgeon here in Chicago the other
physicians before mentioned were of Dundas
and Hamilton, Canada lie sad he could do
nothing for me. He wanted TO cut the silews
of my legs, so that could walk; but | would
not let him, for if did get better would have
no control of them.
The disease continued in this manner until
was II years old, and one day in January, 1879
] read an account in the Tribune of your CUTI-
CURA REMEDIES. 1t described my case so ex-
actly that thought, as a last resort, TO give
them a trial.

A Broken Arm.

About nightfall of Wednesday David
Spicer, the 11-year-old son of our mer-
chant tailor, was returning home with
the herd of cattle, which he had been
watching on the range. David is a ready
rider, and, instead of having hold of the
bride rein, his hands were in his pock-
cts. On the way the horse came to a
bovine carcass, and jumped quickly to
one side. This let the boy to the ground.
A bone OF his right arm was broken be-
tween the wrist and the elbow. He got
home, and bore his pain msnfully. His
mother and his brother William started
at once with him to Wa-Keeney for medi-
cal aid, arriving here at O'Clock Thurs
day morning. The family live on the
blackberry, in the eastern part of Cove
county. and this was David's first view of
Wa-Keeney.

to allow Dawson any compensation what
ever After the jury heard the evidence,
it was out only few minutes before
finding unanimously in favor of Dawson
being allowed one hundred dollars.

NOTICE THIS.
You May Conclude That You Want
a Few Yourself.

The issue of the 16 instant will COM
plete the tenth year of the Western
Kansas World.
Between now and then we shall look
through the files OF this journal from its
infancy for the purpose of publishing on
that date whatever shall have struck us
as being of especial interest to our read
ers. The historic. the tragic, the roman
tic, the grotesque in the past history of
the county will receive a general airing
That that will be an especially, not to
say overwhelmingly, interesting num-
Der, goes, it is fair to believe, without our
insisting.
Now, it dawns upon US that there is
considerable loose change all through
Trego county awaiting a favorable op-
portunity to fall into our Golfers. We
submit that this is the opportunity. We
suggest the propriety of recognizing it by
all hands throughout the county uniting
IN ordering from dozen to 100 copies
apiece. Each of you has friends abroad
to whom you will want to send them, and
you will want to save at least one copy
for each Of your children.
Talk this up to your neighbors, and let
us have rousing old time over this phe-
nomenal epoch in Trego county's history.
Papers in western Kansas reaching the
full age OF ten years under one manage
ment have been, so far as our information
goes, unknown heretofore.
All orders for extra copies of the issue
of February 16, 1889, must be received by
Saturday evening, February 9. If you
can't come in. send written order.
Twelve copies, SO cents; 25 copies, $100;

WHAT OF IT.

In every community there are people
who look upon their home paper as sort
OF necessary evil. They believe it a
pts;ty good institution so long as it goes
on SAYING nice things about the town,
county, and their business enterprises,
provided all the time that it will never
Bother them about little support or
anything OF that kind Wi"o"a NesseH-
ger.
Well, what of it? A paper that
atirs up the enemies of society, and
keeps on the crest of the human
Tide, is respected by good people and
feared by mean ones. If you want
q nicer layout than this, you would
better emigate to Glory, where all
the inhabitants are reputed to be
good.

IT IS pity, indeed, that every paper
can not get the county printing. We are
moved to this observation by the acute
case Of jaw diarrhea with which the
Russell Springs Republican is afflicted.
That paper intimates that the World
has come very nearly committing bribery
in its method of obtaining the county
printing. This fool break shows that the
Republican knows just as much concerning
tho, meaning Of bribery as of common
sense. and this is deuced little, indeed

The Loco Weed in Cove County.

DR.. Burleigh in Kan Ag Col. Industrialist
While visiting Grainfeld, recently, the
writer enquired of the farmers and others
as to the prevalence of the so-called loco
weed From these inquiries the follow
ing history of the weed, as observed in
that region, was ascertained:
The weed first made its appearance
about the year 1875, and for several years
was very abundant. After time, how
ever, it began to disappear, and now very
little is to be found. By some, the cause
OF the disappearance was attributed to a
''white grub" which could be found in
the roots, causing the plant die. Others,
while agreeing that the plant grew less
abundantly each year, could not give any
cause. Some thought that the plant
is again increasing in amount, but no
special facts were presented to support
this view.
The weed is 'Fthe first green thing to
appear in the spring, and the last to
disappear in the fall" This is supposed
to account for the first requirement OF
the shabit" After the 'taste' for the
plant was once acquired, the victim wan
dered around in search OF il, and would
eat nothing else.
Horses were much more severely af-
fected than cattle. But healthy horses
would seldom, if ever, "learn" the habit
from 'focoed" animal On the con-
trary, If one of herd of cattle became
"locoed," others would learn the habit.
This was supposed to be due to the fact
that cattle show more curiosity as to
what their fellows est than do horses.
Cattle seldom died with the disease,
bat became thin. hide bound, and we're
wholly unit for beef. The hoTsas fingered
slolGf q year or two, totally unfit for
use. q finally died The disease was
more htal 70 sheep than to either horses

B1AINS AND FRUIT.

The Ness County Horticultural
Society holds meetings often. Run
ming through the report of the last
meeting, as furnished BY the Ne'cs,
several subjects of Importance loom
up.
Dams across draws, to improve
the moisture of the atmosphere,
were given favorable attention.
Mr.. Snyder thinks peaches can be
grown out here if the buds can be
kept from blossoming prematurely.
In order to meet this difficulty. he
has scraped the dirt nearly off the
top roots Of his trees, poured water
in the basin thus formed, and Gov
cred the ice with a mulch.
The watering of trees in dry
weather was considered. The sensi-
bic conclusion was reached that a
bucket of water thrown occasionally
at the base of tree was apt to dc
harm, instead of good. In order te
be desirable, water must be used in
sufficient quantity to go to the bot
tom of the roots.
One. member gave the apricot q
boost. He thinks it has indications
of going ahead of the peach.

four young chaps living in the neighbor-

by giving the young couple charivari;
so they loaded up two old muskets, took
some tin pans and marched up near the

but the boys thought he was going to set

panic stricken. They do not like to talk
