Important Decision Involving
Rights of Hemesteadsrs.

Washington, D. c., July Tines
Special General Land Commissioners
Herman has issued circular 70 regis
tiers and receivers of local land oticae
in which I've calls attention to an act n
the last congress which makes it possi-
BILE for homesteaders to make second
homestead entries. Particular attention
is called to the. fact that a homssteader
who commtlted, Ills. entry. that is to say,
homeste9der .who resided on his
selection for fourteen months and then
paid the government; Sl.25 an acre .for
the land, is also allowed to make a
second entry in lieu Of remaining on
the land FIVE years. II this selection
should also be committed he cannot
make another, entry.
The act under which the present law
is operative also provides that any, per-
son who has made homestead entry,
bat fro,a any cause has lost or forfeited
the same shall be entitled to the
benefit Of the homestead laws as though
such former entry had not been made.
Therefore, says the commissioner, you
will not thereafter reject IA homestead
application on the ground that the app
plicant cannot take the prescribed oath
that, he has not previously lnade.such an
entry. or because he has perfected title
to land entered under the homestead
law, that he win be required to-show by
affidavit designating the entry formerly
| made by description of the land, num-
Der and date of entry. or other sufficient
date, TO enable the same to be modified
on the records OF this office.

MILLIONS OF WOMEN USE CUrIcURA SOAP exclusively
for preserving, purifying, and identifying the skin, for
cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the
stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening, and
healing red, rough, and sore hands, in the form of baths
for annoying irritations, ~infammations, and chafngs, or
too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes,
for lucrative weaknesses, and for many sanative antiseptic
purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, and
especially mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilet,
bath, and nursery. No amount of persuasion can induce
those who have once used it to use any other, especially
for preserving and purifying the skin, scalp, and hair of
infants and children. CUTICURA SOAP combines delicate
emolient properties derived from CUTICURA, the great
skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients and the
most refreshing of flower odors. No other medicated or
toilet soap ever compounded is to be compared with it
for preserving, purifying, and identifying the skin, scalp,
hair, and hands. No other foreign or domestic toilet soap,
however expensive, is to be compared with it for all the
purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery. Thus it COM
bnes in ONE SOAP at ONE PRICE, viz, TWENTY FIVE CENTS,
the BEST skin and complexion soap, the BEST toilet and
BEST baby soap in the world.
