CUTICURA REMEDIES
Now no Trace of Disease.
Hair Thick, Child Fat, Good, and
Hearty.

When four days old my babe broke out over
one side of his head and body with watery
blisters, which turned to a complete scab.
We called the family doctor, and he said that
"he could heal them up but 1.-THE baby
would never have any more hair on his head, %
were told to try CUTICURA REMEDIES and
did so. We used two boxes of CUTICURA, two
cakes of CUTICURA SOAP, and he now IS all
right. The hair is on thick. and you would
never think there was anything the matter
with him, he is SO fat, good, and hearty, and
1 do not know how to praise CUTICURA REM

ooEoNRn SAID IT WAS SUICIDE.
But Foul Play Is Suggested in COnnec-
tion With Lawrence's Death.

But Foul Play Is Suggested in Connec-
tton With Lawrence's Death.
The coroner's jury in the case of j. W.
Lawrence, brought IN a verdict of sui
eide. Lawrence is the man who was
found beside trail about eight miles
from Union. The two young men who
first discovered him at 8 O'Clock Monday
morning, did not get off their horses,
believing the man to be dead, but went
directly into town and informed the
sheriff The sheriff obtained coffin
and with two conveyances, started for
the scene of the tragedy, arriving there
about l O'Clock. When about fifteen
feet from the body one Of the sheriff's
party made the remark that the man
was not dead, and stated he conld hear
him breathing, and such was the case.
The injured man was removed to town
and died at 3 O'Clock Tuesday morning.
bullet had not penetrated the brain, but
had plowed it's way between the skull
and scalp. The skull was fractured to
some extent, and III the opinion OF the
physicians who examined the injury,
the mans life could have been saved if
he had received medical and surgical at
tention at an earlier hour.
1t is commented upon in Union that
it seems very queer that though there
are about fifteen houses within radius
of mile and half from where Law
renee was shot, and that he was discov-
cred in the morning, that no one visited
the scene of the shooting between the
time of the finding of the body and the
arrival of the sheriff's party. Remarks
of foul play are freely made, as it is
known that Lawrence was hot on the
trail of some horse and cattle thieves,
and it is thought by many that he was
done away with by some of the parties
he was accumulating evidence against,
as the easiest means of avoiding Grim
inal prosecution.
The deceased was "a years of age, and
was a miner by occupation. His father
lives three miles north of Union, and he
has no other relatives in this country.

An Old Love Letter.

The following love letter, written by
a Kentuckian in his youth, and bearing
date III 1923, may be Of use to some Cf
our more modern but less elusive and
tropical lovers, as an example in erotic
epistolary correspondence:
Ny DEAR AND ADORABLE PoILY-As the
heavens yield gloomy aspects, making null
and void my timidical feelings, l sit down ID
promulgate to you, most holy and Immaculate
virgin, that hold a kind OF biennial reverence
for your most sacred charms, but owing TO t.e
intense frigidity of the circumambient atmus-
phere it has discomboborated my respiration
like ship tossed on the tunultuous ocean ia
sight of the delightful land and then toss,
back again. Oh, if there is any tender pity
lies within that snowy bosom, delay my ragir Z;
passion, or 1 shall doubtless pass out OF this
world in a hurricane OF sighs to that sweet
elysian which gives dreams of consolation 10
heal lovesiclS hearts. Your fond adorer, etc.
1t may reduce the percentage of ro-
nance to state that the writer died an
old bachelor about 20 years ago.-New

ROYAL Etiquette.

On one occasion Queen Victoria, Louis
Philippe and the Duke of Wellington
paid a visit to Eton college. They were
invited to sign the visitor s book. The
French king thoughtlessly took up the
pen and signed his name at the top Of
the page. Etiquette, however, forbade
Queen Victoria to sign her name under
any other. She therefore signed OH the
top of the next page. She then took up
the pen and handed it to the Duke of
Wellington, who was so excited at the
contretemps that he actually signed his
name "Weggington. :" And, by the way.
it may be recorded that etiquette forbids
the queen to converse with tradesmen.
When a purveyOr waits upon her, the
queen addresses her remarks to an
equerry, who in turn addresses the ex
pectant merchant. t.-Philadelphia Times.

Flowers that have lost something Of
their perfume are now scented artificial
ly by watering them with an alcoholic
solution of essence, using a little glycer
in to iix the odor. Thus, for viole;s, the
liquid is composed Of 100 grams Of
glycerin and 10 grams of essence Of
violet. In many places, while scented
violets are comparatively rare, the un
scented kinds grow wild in great profu-
sion. These are now bought up in large
quantities, scented artificially and put
into the market i'll advantageous compe-
tition with the perfumed violets grown
by the hOrticulturists. Cut flowers which
have wilted from time or transportation
are revived by being plunged into a
weak solution of sal ammoniac. Flowers
which have little or no scent are also
perfumed for sale by being put into %
box with ice and then saturated with
4 current of carbonic acid charged with
perfume. Public Opinion.

An Attentive Gallant.

Among the audience at one of the
popular theaters were a young man and
a young woman who appeared to be
either newly married or on the verge of
it. The young man was as attentive as
he could be, and the young woman, who
wore all the earmarks of a spoiled child,
took all his little kindnesses as a matter
of course. Between the first and second
acts the courteous gallant whispered TO
his fair one for q moment, and she nod
ded her head affirmatively. The young
man arose and went ont of the theater
through door leading to an adjoining
candy store. He returned few minutes
later accompanied by colored boy in
white coat and apron, who carried in
one hand a tray with a glass of soda
water upon it and in the other a napkin.
He stood in the aisle while the young
man besought his lady to refresh herself
with the glass of soda. The eyes of the
entire audience were upon them. The
young woman shifted at the glass dis
dainfully and waved it aside. A face
tious youngster in the front row of the
gallery ruthlessly fractured the prevail
ing silence with the suggestion: SLAP

some shampy. She don't want none O.

man blushed and sat down and looked
miserable during the rest Of the play

1t Came Hard.

In France, as in most other countries,
it is necessary to give C1e's age when
making u statement in a court Of justice,
as well as in many other official pro-
ceedings. But Frenchwomen Of mature
years are noted above all other women
for their unwillingness to state their age.
On one occasion lady VINO had to
testify was accompanied to the court by
a numerous company of her friends, and
when the magistrate asked, How old
are you?" there was such coughing
and clearing of throats, as of people suf-
fering from severe colds, that all that
could be heard in the courtroom was
''-ty years !"
Through the amiability Of the magis-
trate, this more than half suppressed re-
sponse was allowed to stand, but the
tribunals are not always so lenient. On
another occasion a magistrate asked q
woman:
