Body Entirely Broken Out in One
Mass of Sores. Could Not Sleep.
Would Walk the Floor All Night
Crying and Suffering.
BEGAN TO USE CUTICURa.
Immediate Relief, Rest and Sleep,
Complete and Permanent Cure
in Two Months.

The first Of October my daughter was taker
with Typhoid and Malaria. While sick there cafnt
little blsters in the bends of the arms which
seemed to I'LL with water and itch. The doctor
said when she got well these would leave, but
they grew worse all the time, until from her
neck down to her feet, her body was entirely
broken out in one mass of sores. She could not
sleep, but would walk the floor all night crying
and said she would rather die than live, suffering
like this. Reading your advertisement in I'M
LQdies Home journal Of the cures performed by
CUTICURA REMEDIES in similar cases, we sent
for and began 10 use them, and in one week she
began TO get better, would sleep and rest easily
and in two months, after using five boxes OF
CUTICURA, one cake Of CUTICURA SOAP, and tive
bottles of CUTIcURA REsoLYENT, she was ENTIRELY
well, and now after nearly two years there has
been no trace of the disease. The doctor called
1t Psoriasis. cannot give your remedies too
much praise, for ] believe my daughter would
have died If II had it not been for the CrrfoURA

W York Policemen Raise q Dig Corrup-
tion Fund for Legislators
NLw YORK, Sept. 2. 1t became
known Saturday that within the past
few days secret organization has
been formed in the police department
of this city for the purpose of raising
a mammoth corruption fund Every
person connected with the new organi-
zation has been pledged to secrecy.
The new secret organization differs
materially from any of its predecessors,
inasmuch as its membership SO far is
confined exclusively to sergeants,
roundsmen and patrolmen.
The object OF the big corruption
fund is to pay some dishonest legisla-
tors who last year worked for the de.
feat of the police reorganization bill
and also some of them who voted
against the power of removal bill. But
there is also another object to the
fund, and that is to buy members Of
the next legislature to defeat any po
lice reorganization bill that may bt
drafted. The amount to be raised il
$50, 600. 1t will be subscribed by q
graduated list. Sergeants are to pay
$50 each, roundsmen SIS and patrolmer
$50 each. At the meeting held to or
ganize the new secret society delegates
were present from every precinct il
| the city.

AN EARTHQUAKE SHOCK

Stnrtles Residents OF Towns In New York,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
EYGLEwooD, N. j., Sept. Am earth
quake shock was experienced in this
place Sunday morning at $40 o'clock.
Mirrors were swayed on the walls of
dwellings, clocks were made to strike
out of time, and people in bed were
awakened by the vibration of the
earth. The shock was accompanied by
noise as if big roller was being run
over the streets.
CHESTER, Pa, Sept. Am earth
quake shock shook this city about 8
o'clock Sunday morning and startled
many people. The vibration did not
continue longer than several seconds,
but it caused windows and buildings
to tremble and wall ornaments to be-
come dislodged.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. "A distinctly
perceptible earthquake shock was felt
here Sunday morning about o'clock.
The vibration did not last longer than
q second or so, but it was severe enough
to awaken people from sleep and to
shake ornaments hanging on walls.
The direction of the shock was from
southeast to northwest.
HIGH BRIDGE, N. j., Sept. Am
earthquake shock was felt here about
o'clock Sunday morning and from re-
ports received here it appears to have
been felt all through this county.
Buildings rocked, beds were shaken,
rudely arousing people who had not
risen, and in number of houses arti-
cles fell from shelves, much to the
alarm of nervous people. The shock
was greater in the upper part Of the
county.
BROOKLYN, n. Y, Sept. 2.-Three dis
tinct earthquake shocks were felt by
the residents of Brooklyn about
o'clock Sunday morning. The shocl
was pretty severe in Coney Island and
many persons were awakened from
their sleep. Pictures, crockery anc
even furniture in many hoases were
dislodged from their positions and the
owners who were not awakened by the
shock wondered how it came to pass.

United States for 1895. The wool prod
uct is put at 294, 296, ,72G pounds, washed

placed at 125, 10, 800 pounds. The num-
ber of sheep April 1st is estimated at
SO, 949, 1888, and the average weight of
fleece was G.S05 pounds, the slight vari-
alton arising chiefly from the reduction
in weight in Pennsylvania, Colorado
and Utah. In most cases where the
weight of neeces has been reduced
there will also be found a reduction in
the shrinkage between the condition
of the wool as sheared and it's secured
state. This is caused in most instances
by the crossing of merinos with other
breeds, the result being fleece of less

The MOTHER OF HOUSTON.-The
Houston (Texas) Post gives an interest
ing sketch of Mrs. Charlotte NJ. Allen,
of that city, in connection with the
ninetieth anniversary of her birth,
which was quietly celebrated Saturday
last. This lady was Miss Charlotte NJ.
Baldwin, Baldwinsville, N. Y, and was
married to Mr.. Augustus G. Allen, of
that place, in 1881. They settled in
Texas in 1888, and in 1886 Mr.. Allen Sc
tied on the land at the head of the Buff.
falo bayou, and laid out the town. AT
dinner given to Gen. Houston, Mrs.
Allen said the name of the future city
should be Houston, in honor of their
guest. When the name was announced
General Houston, in the most gracious
manner, responded: May our hostess,
Mrs. Allen, live to see the city of Hous-
ton the city of Texas and the pride OF
the Lone Star Republic" General
Houston's aspirations have been real
lied. Houston is now the leading city
in Texas in population, and is growing
with astonishing rapidity. IA very
different scene, says the Houston Post
| sis witnessed on the site of Houston in
| 1895 from what was to be seen in 1886
| Where paved avenues are now lined
with palatial homes and great trade
structures, where temples, dedicated
to religion lift their spires, and splen-
did edifices devoted to educational
purposes are met, where the lightning
has been harnessed to street cars and
at night hung on high for the safety
and comfort of the citizens-was then
solitude" Houston now has popu
lation of over 10000 people, fifteen rail
roads centre there, and it's cotton trade
this year aggregates over 1 $780, 900 bales.
What wonderful development Mrs. AL
len has witnessed.

Shop Hints for Working Boys.


Good manners and neatness will
hide the patches.
The boy who watches the clock may
become walking delegate but he will
never be member of the firm.
Idleness makes the hours drag.
Killing time is harder work than
saving wood.
Blackened shoes make the feet look
smaller.
1t is better to own pair of patched
trousers than to owe for a new suit.
AS man. the boy who talks back"
never gets heard.
When an employer sees clean floor,
he soon finds out who swept it.
The first boy to quit work is usually
the last to be promoted.
"I'll do better next time" is good
motto only when you have done your
best this time.
The way to get opportunities is to
make them.
The most incompetent workman in
the shop can teach the brightest ap-
prentice something.
If the apprentice knew it all the fore.
man would be discharged.
Bad habits and poor work go togeth-
er. Poor work means poor pay.
A boy that steals time cannot be
trusted with money.
The boy who is always complaining
that his employer is imposing upon
him is generally imposing upon his
employer.
Even a dishonest employer appreci
ates honest work.
The boy who obeys promptly and
willingly has his trade half learned.
1t is the tardy boy that has the
strongest objection to working a little
overtime.
The boy who can spend mis- money
for cigarettes and tobacco does not
need an increase in wages.
Impudence is not indicative OF
brightness
The best workmen do the least talk

A Contrast.

The poor Western farmers deserve to
be pitied. Last season their crops were
destroyed by hot winds. This year
they have struggled against back
ward Spring and late frosts and sand
storms, and those that were not over
come by these and have succeeded in
getting a crop started are about to see
it all devoured by grasshoppers. Near
the Colorado and Nebraska line, along
the Burlington railroad, the grasshop
pers are so thick that they seriously
impede the passage of trains by cover
ing the rails, and the farmers fear an
other devastation similar to that Of
1876. 1t is no wonder that they are dis
couraged and are leaving for more ia
vored localities, in many cases aban-
doning improved farms. The number
of farms that have been abandoned in
Kansas and Nebraska during the past
twelve months is large, and it is con-
stantly increasing.
What contrast to this is the situa
ton of the Virginia farmers. No sand
storms, no drouths, no grasshoppers or
other insect pests beyond control, but
every promise of beautiful harvest
and good prices. Deeply sympathetic
in the misfortune of our Western broth
ers, we will be in a position at harvest
time to show our sympathy in sub
stantial way, and at the same time give
ocular proof of the fact that there is a
place where the farmers work with ma
lures assistance, instead of being in a
constant battle with her.
In Virginia we have many acres of
fertile land that can be bought at prices
which, taking all things into considera-
ton, are cheaper than the Western
lands for nothing. Our people are anx-
ious to have the State settled with
white farmers and are ready to make
very liberal arrangements to bring it
about. The range of farm products is
far greater than in the West. We have
several ready money crops that cannot
be grown there, and the season that
the soil can be worked is so long that
two. three, and sometimes four crops
can be raised from the same land in a
year. We are much nearer the large
markets than our Western friends and,
having both water and rail shipping
facilities, cheap freight rates are assur-
ed. Our climate is very healthful and
is an ideal one for the farmer, as we
have an abundance of rain and sun
shine, and the extremes of heat and
cold are seldom experienced.
Tosum up briefly, we want the sturdy
Western farmers to come and help de-
velop our grand State, and can offer at
fractions to them that contrast so
strongly with their present environ
nent that they will prove irresistible,
if thoroughly investigated.-Buc

Yours,
JOHN SAYLEs.

THE MAN WHO KNOWS 1T ALL
The Philadelphia Record says: 1.-THE
man who knows it all is a luxury
which no decent community, however
forbearing, can easily afford to toler-
ate. With all his blatant egotism he
boils down to an asinine specimen of
the rarest kind. He is bore, an itch.
a disagreeable nuisance anywhere and
everywhere. He knows everything
about everybody, and insists upon
ventilating his ample knowledge upon
every one in all places. You 20 into
the street, he is there. You sit in
your study and up comes his card.
You go to the theatre or to any place
of amusement, and behind YOU sits
this irrepressible ass. You go to see
your girl, and 10 he is there also !
Neither place nor person is sacred
from his profane presence. He out
breaches the preacher, outlies the law
yer and leaves the doctor far behind
in sending you to your grave.
"Just now he has new hobby. 1t
is politics. He knows exactly why we
are thus and SO and can tell us easily
how to be otherwise. He has all the
leading questions of the day down to
the finest of fine points, Tariff, cur
of his tongue. He knows all about ex-
ports, imports, internal revenues and
the whole calendar of industrial com
plexities. If a fight break out in New
Orleans, the man who gets shot used
to room with him at school or college
1t Brazil and France have a set-to, he
can tell in an instant the cause of the
controversy and the merits of both
sides. He is generally for war-he is
in for riding in blood up to the brides
and he may always be counted on as
lingo of the first water.
Verify, what an indispensable re-
proach to our manhood he is-this fell
low who knows it all! What tedious
travesty upon the common sense of the
community! What an unspeakable
reveler in the arts that disgust all
thoughtful men! But there! In kick
ing there is no reward; for, like the
poor, he shall he with us always-this
man who knows it ALL"
