1t is an itching and burning of the

1t is thousands of pin-headed YES

upon the raw excoriated skin.
No part Of the human skin is
exempt.
1t tortures, diSfgures and humil-
iates more than all other skin diseases
combined.
Tender babies are among its most

Sleep ard rest are out of the

A single application is often suffi-

He ,cheerfully imparts all his future plans ito whomsoever is polite enough to lis ten. It matters not to the hopeful IriShman with his little capital and his theories of agriculture that the German family listening admiringly to all he has to say understand not word of his brogue. The delight of being Oh land sets every tongue awag. And they are singularly trustful souls these immigrants. Were it not for the constant vigilance of the Ellis island staff, many hoard, designed to set its pcssessor up in the New World, would be filched by the schemers who reap harvests even from the steerage.

 An elderly Welshman turned up in one cargo with a ponderous problem on his mind. He was looking for a brother of his who had come to Ameri- ca some years before and now had a farm somewhere. The Welshman did not know just where it was, but he had an abiding faith in his ability to get track of his brother if he only asked questions enough. He had man. aged to make the acquaintance of a German family in some inexplica- ble manner, as he did not understand a word of their tongue. But one of the Germans knew little English, and he undertook to act as interpreter Itwas almost the hour of parting, and the

The Bereaved Wife Had an Eye to the
 Main Chance.
 Eli Perkins tells San Francisco re- porter that this is one of Depew's new stories: Chauncey Depew's last story was about poor Peekskill fisherman who was drowned in the Hudson river. - He fell into the river and sank. The boys searched for him all day and finally fished him out. Then Deacon Sanders went to break the sad news to his bereaved wife.
 With tears in his eyes he knocked at the widows door and said:
 ''I'm afraid l bring yorl bad news. John"
 "What! Nothing has happened to John, has there? O., my dear John!" broke in the widow.
 ''Yes, madam" said the deacon tear fully, "John is drowned, and"
 "Oh, my John! My dear John drowned!' sobbed the widow.
 'Yes, madam-he is gone."
 70, dear! have you found the body9" "Yes, we found it.''
 "What state was it in?" asked the widow, between her tears.
 Bad state-very bad. Eels got after him. He was all covered with eels." 70, my dear John covered with eels! How many were there?"
 "Over two hundre d cells hung to him."
 1.-Two hundred cells on John?" gasped the bere aved woman.
 "Yes, two hundred"
 1.-Two hundred! O, dear-well, set him again!"

Cattle and Rattlesnakes.

"CattIe seem to have an instinctive dread of rattlesnalxe," said Texas ranchman the other day, ''and will take every precaution to avoid local ity where they have reason to think one of these reptiles is concealed. I was once driving herd of beeves over lonely trail, when suddenly the leader of the herd, huge steer, started back in terror, gave vent to a snort of warning, and moving to the right, passed on. Those immediately in his rear turned to the right or left, and their example was followed by the whole herd. On arriving at the dreaded spot I dismounted, expecting to find that rattlesnakc had been the cause of alarm. Instead of finding a serpent, there in little tuft of grass sat harm less plover, covering her nest, while her wings'were kept in constant and violent motion.
