MILLIONS OF WOMEN USE CUrIcURA SOAP exclusively
Tor 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 chafings, 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
emollient properties derived from CUTcURA, the great
skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients and the
most refreshing of flower odors. No other indicated 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
bines in One SOAP at ONE PRICE, viz, TWENTY FIVE CENTS,

CHEAPER THAN A FUNERAL.
ne Concluded to Pay the Doctors
Dill as an Economical
Move,

A well-known North Dakota magistrate
tells the following story, for the truth Of
which he vouches: At a small town in the
state there were two doctors, one of whom
had a great reputation for the cures he ef-
fected, and the other was not believed 10 be
much good" The favored doctor found his
services in great request, but as payment
was not always Forthcoming he made rule
that a certain class OF his patients should
pay in advance.
One winters night be was reused by two
farmers from a hamlet ten miles away, the
wife of one Of whom was seriously i'll. He
told them to 60 to the other doctor, but
they refi1aed, saying they would prefer his
services. Very well" replied the medieo,
"in. that ease my fee is ten dollars, the money
to be paid now"
The men demonstrated. but the doctor was
obdurate, and shut down his window. He
waited, however, TO hear what they wou'd
say. "Wdl, what will we do now" asked
the farmer whose wife was i'll. And the re-
ply that was given must have been as graft
flying as il was amusing to the listening doc
tor. 1t was:
II think you would better give it. The
funeral would cost you more"

The Nickel Plate Road.

Dining Car service on American Railroads
has undergone a number OF changes in the
method OF serving meals in dining cars. Many
leading roads are now serving from cards
a.la-carte, whilst on the other great trunk
lines the popular American plan OF en-
joying anything on the bill of fare and
paying the usual price Of one dollar. In
recent years the American Club" meal has
come to the front, by which guests may
choose from a dozen or more bills of fare,
neatly arranged in booklet form, ranging in
price from IS cents to Sl.00 This latter
plan is adopted by the Nickel Plate Road on
its through express trains between Chicago,
New York City and Boston, except on the
dining ears Of that line, a choice may be
made from various club menus, or a Sc
lection may be made from them all, at
the price Of the higher. In fact, ii is claimed
for the Nickel Plate Road that its passenger
train service is equal TO the best, and that
its combination dining car meals is an ex.
elusive advantage to patrons Of the Nickel
