Our little son will be four years of age on
the 25th inst, In May, 1885, he was attacked
with a very painful breaking out of the skin.
We called in a physician, who treated him
for about four weeks, The child received lit
tie or no good from the treatment, as the
breaking out, supposed by the physician to
be hives in an aggravated form, became
larger in blotches, and more and more dis
tressing, We were frequently 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 fail
ing. and the child steadily getting worse and
worse, until about the Goth Of last July. when
we began to give him CUTIcuRA REsoLyEyT
internally. and the CUTICURA and CUTICuRA
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, and he has
never been troubled since with the horrible
malady. In all we used less than one half of
a bottle of CUTIcURA REsoLvENT, little less
than one box of CUTICuRA, and only one cake
of CUTTCURA. SOAP.

Pianos Difficult to Tune,

In tuning panos find most Of them easy
to put i'll good shape, but there are some very
difficult to tune. The reason of this is the
Improper ratio in the length of the strings,
which, to give perfect harmony, must have a
regularity Of length and thickness. This is
especially required in the sharps. | remember
peculiarly striking instance, which wil
show why some pianos always sound like tin
pans. The firm was with had brought into
the house an old piano. One afternoon. not
having anything to do, tuned it. After
had put every note into the proper pitch l
found that the harmony had gone to pot, and
! could not get decent tune out of the keys
Then had to tune it all over for harmony
and let individual notes take care of them
selves The next afternoon the other tuner
for the house, without thinking about the
harmony, struck a few notes on the piano
and found the strings out of tune, just as
had done. He started in to put the instru-
nlent into shape. He then found the harmony
LACKING, and had to tune the old thing over
again. The ratio Of length of the strings
bad not been preserved in the manufacture.
Many of the cheap pianos of the present day
are defective in this respect, and will ne:er
remain long in tune.-H. A. Nichaus in Globe

ten years is to be in solitary confinement at

convict has conducted himself we'll, he can
thereafter work among his associate con-
victs, but is still condemned to remain silent.

Male Versus Female Journalists,

When male writer begins to rust out he
takes to drink. What does woman do? Can
any one tell me2 So far as memory aids me,
it seems to me that women who work hard at
literature die while working, unless they
marry young and give up their work. They
get tired to death and then lie down and die,
but they never become the wrecks men do.
By the way, it has just occurred to me that
sampling liquids is not confined TO broken
down journalists, for it is the failing of
many brilliant, hard working writer. Per-
haps the sampling superinduces rest. But
brilliant women do not indulge in such ex-
cesses. Perhaps that is the reason they die
in harness. Marie Flaacke in The Journalist
